trs++ to you on this answer. I was heading down a long and sloppy road with my attempt.I'm sure that this was probably someone's homework at some point :-) If only I could be so lucky as to have a good Perl course availible. Otherwise I learn from books, at my job, and from silly practices like this.(and of couse from staying tuned to perlmonks)
One Question, This looked like a possible typo, but I haven't tried to use your code yet.
'Jack Smith' => 0 # same amount as his wife
Should that be a 1?
japhy I'm truly impressed. ...and a little frightened.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
