but throughout the rest of your life if you cannot get more work

I think that's an argument that can be applied to any of us. I'm not guaranteed to have a job next year if they cut the budget.

I love the hobbit house and would be very content to live in one. I have considered trying to build a hobbit hole in the backyard by covering a geodesic dome with sod.

Much ~ma for amyth's brother

Wasn't the hobbit house thus named more because of the style of it than the height of it? I never got the impression it wasn't human scale.

I did not look at the salaries. I assume there is a 'market' and that like sports there is some risk to things not working out. sign up for a show , canceled in episode or two. However, even though it is none of my business, I hate seeing either athletes or actors doing stupid stuff with their money . Because there careers are so unstable.

Heck, "they" haven't sorted out this year's budget consequences yet at my school.

Watching a voices.com webinar right now. It's actually useful. While I've done more than a year of VO training, I haven't aggressively gone after jobs since training. Too shy about self-marketing. But if I'm going to get a job I can do regardless of my disability, I'm going to have to get over that. It's nice to get a little walkthrough on their site.

More hobbit style homes, even some that meet some of tommyrot's requirements

William Peterson had Executive Producer credit from the beginning of CSI. That said, I'm not looking at the salary list. I'll have a 'sode.

I have both kids at the dentist. So glad about the parents-in-the-waiting room policy.

I want a hobbit house!

Nobody's guaranteed a job. But the risk to reward in acting is pretty damned high, and if you average out the incomes (and the health benefits) they start to look more like normal people. Nobody's doing the flip side of that chart where the acting income is $0--and that's for people you know. Think of all the actors you've never heard of who can't get health benefits.

That's a really lucky few.

I do get the RAEG at the bankrupt ones, though. Come on, people. Be wise with your money, and live within your means. Nic Cage and Scottie Pippen should not be hard up for money. That's just ludicrous. Not if I can make ends meet.
