Indeed, that helped a great deal. I  do see your point about a salary 
value-object as well, and I'll definitely spend some time thinking 
about that path.

Thank you again, sir, your solution works very well.

Also, thanks are due to Mr. mmalc crawford, your information about 
Core Data is very helpful. However, I think I'm going to take your 
advice and spend some more time with Cocoa before I actually use Core 
Data.
