That's awesome. I should use that for motivation. Sooner than it will probably seem i'll end up with a family of my own and being free from money around that time would be amazing for everyone in the family.

Default uninteresting AIM conversation with another twoer

him: its funny that you use your kids as motivation
me: college tuition
him: but your an er physician
him: you should be makinng a ton
him: and hsoulndt need the extra $$
me: dude, you always need extra
him: i guess i'll figure that out in a few years
me: ya
me: work is hard
me: dont want to do it past 55
him: right now i can't even fatham what it would be like to make 100k/yr



Bottom line is that poker can be used as a primary or secondary source of income and extra money is only going to help take care of the family better. These girls are precious (obviously) but they are also expensive. When I decide to log off at night I think about how their preshool costs 2k/month. I think about 200K for college tuition and another 100-150K for their weddings. I also want to spend time vacationing with them and surfing exotic spots when they turn into little rippers. All this costs money and while curbing a lifestyle and earning less money is fine, there is also nothing wrong with eating at nicer places, taking more trips, and generally having more fun. For all you early 20s guys I just really hope you are smart enough to siphen some bankroll off and buy homes, stocks, or whatever. Something that will always be there and won't be able to be pushed into the center of the table.
