Move out or continue to live with parents?
I'm 31yrs old. I have been living with my parents for 2 yrs (post divorce)
I've been playing poker part time for 6 yrs. It has been my sole source of income for the last 2 yrs. This year I have averaged $25/hr (I suck) However I am only averaging 20hrs a week (I suck) I have about a $15K BR. I am currently playing 5/10full. My parents can NOT get hi-speed. (actually they get 28K max, and I lose conn at least 2x a day) I think if I had Hi speed I would play more because I could surf/post on 2+2 while playing. Living on my own would cost: $400/rent (this is splitting a place with a pool,gym,hispeed) $100/utilities $600/food/gas (car is paid for) and whatever else I am forgetting per month. Should I move out and force myself to work the extra 10hrs/wk it would cost to live away from home? Or should I stay at home and force myself to work the extra 10 hrs on dial-up and pocket the cash? Thanks |

Your parents do not want you living with them.

Re: Move out or continue to live with parents?
Actually my parents want me to get a job, buy a house, marry a nice girl, have 6 kids, and live happily ever after
However, my credit is all screwed up from my divorce. They would be happy for me to stay in their house until I can buy my own. That really isn't the issue, they sat and cried when I told them I was going to look for an apartment today... But I can understand the theory of getting out of their house, because it is the right thing to do... |

[/ QUOTE ] You have a good situation, in that your parents still want you there and you're in your 30's. Why can't you get high-speed? It would be more sensible to just get high-speed? Do you have cable? Get cable access? (i.e. roadrunner, etc.). Don't live on your own. Not with your "profession". You can't be a poker player forever. Get a job, a career. Also, if you pray, give thanks like 13098049283049324 thanks to God for your parents. All I know is, my parents would NEVER let me move back in, and im 27 [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] I love my parents though. Also, do they know you gamble? If so, wow.... |
