I havent even taken up a job yet. But I envy Isc for the satisfaction he gets out of running Prgmr. Wow wondering how it feels to be like a hero running the most affordable vps services and getting all those thanks for supporting people at such low prices.

P.S: he also wrote a book on Xen which is in my ToRead list.

thank you for your kind words. Prgmr.com is, right now, somewhere between ramen profitable and opportunity cost profitable. My net worth, if my understanding of standard industry prices, is going up significantly faster than if I were to work a regular job, spend what I'm spending, and save the rest, but I'm still living on 1/4th to 1/3rd what I'd make as a SysAdmin elsewhere, so I feel like I'm on the right path, but I haven't arrived yet.
