Re: Part timers - what do you do with your winnings?
[ QUOTE ]
I bought a 2001FP (sweeeeeeet). [/ QUOTE ] I need to get one of these. I usually take money out only we I want something extra. I used a lot to take a trip to Europe last summer. And this summer I will probably do the same thing, only I want to go to Australia. I also need to buy a ring for my girl and make her an honest women. How long have you put it off Jax? |

[/ QUOTE ] Well, haven't actually put it off at all because I am only 20 and she doesn't want to get married yet either. However, we have been together for 5 years and will probably be getting engaged in 1-2 years, so I'm just planning ahead. |

in other news, when you sit with 25bb and then win 25bb, do you then think of 25bb as "originally yours" and 25bb as "winnings", or do you think "50bb=mine"? [/ QUOTE ] I like to think of it as OPM, Other People's Money. I love playing with OPM. |

Re: Part timers - what do you do with your winnings?
In two years I have never withdrawn a cent from my poker/casino bankroll. And since I am wimp I never take shots at higher limits (ie still playing 1/2 after two years). Hence my bankroll is ALOT.
Until my wife decided we really needed a new kitchen. So the kitchen is done and now the money is earmarked to pay off the credit card when it comes due in 6/12 months. So I bought a kitchen with my winnings. Would've much prefered having a 2001FP and a nice TV. |

Re: Part timers - what do you do with your winnings?
I only play .5/1 and occassionally 1/2, so YMMV. I take out the maximum allowable for the tax deffered contribution to my IRA. Then I invest in variable annuities and equities with long term growth potential. I tuck a little aside to be used as venture capital for small start-ups. Either way, I'm in the market for a truck to haul away my winnings--know anyone? Good question though.

Re: Part timers - what do you do with your winnings?
I cash out anything over $500 at the end of each month and buy something "nice" for the family
So far we have had a holiday, Nintendo DS, new PC, and a whole load of other stuff that the normal household budget doesn't really cover! ($500 is enough to max out most bonuses and is 500BB at the limit I play most often!) |

Re: Part timers - what do you do with your winnings?
Right now I'm just increasing the bankroll. It's gone from $100 to $1200 this year, and I'm thinking of moving up to $2/$4 in Dec.
