More dot.com casualties...

From salon.com:

John Sacrosante, who earned more than $100,000 a year as a free-lance database engineer, spent his 39th birthday last week with the "brothers" he met at the church shelter where he has been living.

I know I should feel more sorry for these guys than I do. But I don't. I mean, you make $100,000 one year and then you have no money the next year? Where did it go? If you were working 110 hours per week, how did you manage to spend it? And don't you think it might be a good idea to move somewhere where the cost of living wasn't through the roof?
