I just realized something odd ...

There are 3 published SRM adventures, one more ("A dark and stormy night") is already played at conventions.
As the adventures are supposed to be set about exactly 60 years in the future, so for example "FORCEd RECON" would take place in August 2064 if played now, that would mean that the lifestyle costs for SRM characters up till now are at least for 5 months, provided they started when SRM00-01 "Mission Briefing" was published.
With only 3 (or 4 at best) runs payed for, the lifestyle costs alone can lead some (or most ?) runners to bankruptcy.
Buying equipment, paying bribes (see "FORCEd RECON"), and stuff like that will just add to these costs.

My question: Are the SRM characters really supposed to pay for lifestyle costs during the introductory adventures (SRM00-X) or just as soon as the real campaign (SRM01-X) kicks off ?
