Default Re: What do the young ones do with their money?

Well i am a 28 year old thats been travelling the world for 7 years. Found this site 6 months or so ago. Since then i 4 table the 10īs and live on the beach in the south of Spain(Cadiz)(thank you 2+2īs). Like fattony21 play and travel. Only play 3 hours a day on average, but this pays for everything plus travel. Heading to morroco tomorrow for 2 weeks then off to the the island of fuertaventura in the canary islands for a week.Funny story my "bootyfest" chica just left yesterday for home, no doubting your assesment on that fact fattony. Cars are over rated, topless euros outside your doorstep anyday. ciao

I tuck away $2k a month into savings, put $1k a month into spending money, and the remainder gets reinvested into my bankroll. the savings cash will be invested next year as my investment-genius-mother gives me the crash course. she teaches seminars on some rather complicated stuff and makes 20-40%/yr, even on the bad years. [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

oh, i also occasionally devote a month as a fundraiser. for example, i want to get a 60" sony hdtv before the xbox360 comes out, so september i will devote all winnings to the TV fund. i have mental issues with spending money from my br or from savings that i didn't earn with the express purpose of spending it on that... so this helps. and it gives me more motivation.

If she is making 20-40% a year, she is running real good [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]. She should stop the seminars, and start a hedge fund or mutual fund and start raking in the 8 figure paychecks.

really? If so you should definitly elaborate.

I've been toying with the idea of playing for a charity and work something where like every monday or every monday/tuesday i'm playing for the charity and donate all winnings. It would be fun and I could publicize it a little with a blog with updates. It might also possibly help establish professional poker as at least somewhat respectable.

Based on his username I'm going to go out on a limb here and guess he is kidding.

it was never really anything to begin with. I had just been toying with the idea recently and thought it would be really cool to do something like that. Maybe I shouldn't mention these things without actually doing them though, talking about doing something cool like this is a lot easier then actually being selfless and motivated enough to implement it.

I am 19 and I invest 95% of my poker money in various things such as stocks, bonds, mutual funds, IRAs. My plan is too let the money mature and retire 5-10 years early.
