问题     Computer programmer Brendan Tammy earned ￡ 55, 000 a year by designing new computer games, yet he cannot find a bank prepared to let him have a check card. Instead, he has been told to wait another two years until he is 18.
    He works for a small company in Liverpool, where most young people of his age are looking for jobs. Brendan’ s biggest headache is how to use his money. Though he has high payment, he cannot drive a car, or get credit cards.
    Brendan got his job four months ago, a year after leaving school with six D-levels(普通成绩)and working for a time in a computer shop. "I got the job because the people who run the company knew I had already written some programs. " he said.
    " I suppose 55,000 pounds sounds a lot but I hope it will come to more than that this year. " He spends some of his money on records and clothes, and gives his mother 20 pounds a week as he lives with his parents. But most of his spare time is spent working.
    "Unfortunately, computing was not part of our studies at school," he said. "But I had been studying it in books and magazines for four years in my spare time. I knew what I wanted to do and never considered staying on at school. Most people in this business are fairly young, anyway. I would like to earn a million and I suppose early retirement(退休)is a possibility. You never know when the market might disappear. "
