"The man who doesn't read good books has no advantage over the man who can't read them."
(c) Mark Twain
"Some books are to be tasted, others to be swallowed, and some few to be chewed and digested; that is, some books are to be read only in parts, others to be read, but not curiously, and some few to be read wholly, and with diligence and attention."
(c) Sir Francis Bacon, 1621

What is your price as a programmer?

Some programs written for NASA may cost up to $1500 for every line of code (incl. bugs, sometimes critical bugs).
If you are a programmer, just divide your salary to the lines of code you have written for this salary. So, how much for the single line of code? ;)
