Silver_blade Turbocharged September 25, 2008 Share September 25, 2008 ...Qpik, it is indeed great to make a living out of something you love. You cannot lose. Whether I'm financially rich, poor or ok, I will still feel happy everyday when I work. Can't ask for anything more... I so agree with you on this. Was it a difficult decision to take this route? I was fairly straightforward for me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chickenbackside 1st Gear September 25, 2008 Share September 25, 2008 But I am NOT a pop star. I work for them pesky pop stars, haha... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Throttle2 Supersonic September 25, 2008 Share September 25, 2008 So what is the least (best price) anyone has paid for a fully loaded Aeron Herman Miller? If I heard correctly, our company price for this is less than $800 becos bulk purchase Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Throttle2 Supersonic September 25, 2008 Share September 25, 2008 so you are the real star ....... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chickenbackside 1st Gear September 25, 2008 Share September 25, 2008 Not difficult at all. Making music was all I ever wanted to do since I was 6 years old. Never for one minute even entertained the thought of doing anything else. I'm just really blessed to be able to put food on the table doing what most people would consider "not a proper job". My parents used to always tell me in my twenties when I used to work in pubs to "get a proper job". Now they're actually proud of what I do. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miketow Neutral Newbie September 25, 2008 Author Share September 25, 2008 True..Prices have actually been creeping up every year! and on the same design!! The 2 people who actually sell their second hand 3- 5 year old Herman Miller Aerons were pricing it at like 1.6k!! The very best price i ever got was about 2 years ago at the Takashimaya branch...at 1.65K with the Takashimaya Amex card extra 10% discount - and I didnt buy..

King_of_abalone Clutched September 25, 2008 Share September 25, 2008 Nice guitars! And that Fender amp: twin reverb? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josho 1st Gear September 25, 2008 Share September 25, 2008 great guitars you had there. Is that home or studio :) I'm into production as well, but not as hardcore as ya having so much of hardware DSP. hee Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chickenbackside 1st Gear September 25, 2008 Share September 25, 2008 Nah, twin reverbs are bigger. It's a discontinued model called the Super 60. Had it since I was a teenager. Still works perfectly although every few years, you need to change out the tubes. Loud enough for a medium sized room. In my little room, volume is at number 2 at most before the door starts shaking... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chickenbackside 1st Gear September 25, 2008 Share September 25, 2008 It's a home studio. Where I spend most of my time really. The equipment is necessary if I wanna eat chicken rice everyday. Not much choice there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well...you've put more than food on the table with this "improper" job of yours. Look at all the rice rice cars you've driven. I'm holding a "proper" job if you like and I have none of these except the food on my family's table ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
