Neilly, blow or speed? Gotta be one or the other.

guess this ones in the recycle bin

haha

my money is on speed but gl man

So if you name the price of the goods, you should also give it's specs - long term results and graphs?

Are you playing on Merge or something? There's a big panic going on that nobody has been paid out in 2 months and the site reps have suddenly disappeared from 2p2.

byrn thats not recycle bin, i just don't always listen to it!

i didnt read it all, lol - i mean still seems smarter*, but really selling ur porche to get an audi?

get something fuel efficient and economically efficient until ftp or w/e opens in usa (or w/e deeb said) - if that happens, or go to canada and keep ur porsche n grind highstakes yo

Well the porche's are stupid expensive. I was getting my car detailed a few weeks ago and some guy had a cayman S or something with a broke front headlight, said it was going to cost $4000 to replace =/

most legit post ever lol

audis arent that expensive if youre just getting a used a4 or something, around 21k-22k and u can find 'em even cheaper if u dig deeper. i own an s4 and it only cost me 50k, but I absolutely love the car and no need for a new vehicle unless the queen alien from the 1986 sequel to "alien" smashes it to pieces

best decision ever. you guys have it so good in california. there cars are cheap, no weather shit and roads are great to drive on.

Trade forex, don't invest. You don't know what's going to happen tomorrow, why have your money elsewhere?

Dear god, please get a cheap car. Real ballers don't waste money on depreciating "assets."

I'm probably not going to get anything for a while. I can take taxi's, and I have most of my stuff delivered as it is. Not a huge need for personal transportation at the moment.

gnarly,

what's forex?

Foreign exchange market. Trading currencies. Less restrictions like the stock markets have. In some countries, you can get 500:1 leverage. Check out babypips.com.

Sometimes you gotta spend money to make money

lol dude don't trade forex. it's an easier way to wipe out your life, believe me.

I'm real high on Caesars Entertainment Corp. I think it's gonna jump when online poker gets legalized. I don't really know too much about investing, but I have read a few of Peter Lynch's books and he recommends to invest in what you know. Caesar's makes a lot of sense to me.

I've thought about putting in some money in a couple different places for this very reason. I would use a few to increase my chances of having one take off when the losses from the other ones would be very miniscule if even existent. The same thinking is done with a lot of penny stocks based in meds and FDA approval timing.

You can easily lose all of your money playing forex or playing stocks. You just have to have a hunger to make money, understand bankroll management and risk-reward stuff, and time. I lose about .25-.75% on average for a losing trade with 2% being the maximum I'll ever do. This allows me to do a lot of trading. By using time, eventually, I'll learn how the markets work if I'm open to them.

This is the most possible crucial thing in trading, though. Being open to the markets. Just because there's a high chance that what you're seeing is a double bottom doesn't mean it's actually going to be that.

Sorry if I went on a tangent, I'm stoned lol.

Not true. You know for a fact I trade forex and it is profitable given you have enough br.

well if you're as smart and competitive as tokeweed. forex is easy monies

dude i don't even know what most of you guys are talking about. im an investing donk.

run simulations for fun first if you really don't know anything about anything. obv gotta read up on stuffs.

def don't start off by trading forex...i think that's a terrible idea.

lol...this is a blog, not a state of the union address. a lot of the things i type, they are literally random thoughts that pop into my head, not specific laid plans for the future--thx for makin sure to point out every marginal inaccuracy in every post i make though. I really do appreciate how thorough you are and how you happen to be on top of every post i make.
also .... a small point to keep in mind........

your hourly earn is probably exponentially smaller than a lot of other players. there's no way it couldn't be with how on the ball you are to every post made here. ppl who earn more per hour have more important things to do with their time......THEREFORE ...i may have (lol) just a little bit more money to invest than you think.

Aight sweet.

I cant remember if this was a joke or not, but i thought i remembered hearing that you leased your Porsche through your parents. Hope you thanked them when you trashed their credit rating.
If you're hocking some shitty 90 minute coaching session for $200, you're not as ballin as you think
sold Porsche to "boost your bankroll"

Keep trying to maintain your wealthy image despite this:

22k? If I'm just keeping that locked up, what am I supposed to use for a bankroll?

I haven't done shit with my life and work minimum wage and im pretty sure i have a net worth close to yours. Why don't you start by telling us what you purchased your Porsche for and what you actually sold it for. Because it definitely wasn't 12k less than what you paid for it, or whatever it was you posted the other day.

With all that said, a lot of the "LP greats" you listed in your little brown-nosing post would help me out over you on any given day of the week, and i haven't done shit on this site apart from be myself.

GL with keeping up with your non-asshole friends who are already catching up to you financially. You're fucked because youre a natural asshole.

Did you even read this?

between this and all of your thinly veiled narcissistic comments it seems like no great mystery why you didn't have a positive reputation here.

there's a lot more to maturity than having your finances in order.

Dunno why I let myself get involved with this ... you twist all of my words and make over-arching assumptions to things which you have no idea. I'm not going to reply to anything else you say because it's obvious you will find some way to distort it and make it seem different than how it is. However, feel free to post on the blog as much as you want as long as you don't troll me at every point.

I just received a 10k wire from merge about 2 weeks ago. I haven't heard of any problems from the reps I work with.

looks like you've been dodging criticism about your $200/90min coaching rates all throughout the blog comments. I guess we should just assume that you don't have any 2012 stats to justify that coaching rate?

Thats a good point. I always thought you were good at poker, but if your trying to get some students or what not, we need to see some sort of 2012 results. Not even 2011 because the games have changed dramatically since then

It was in the merge cashout thread. Starting at the first of May there was a bunch of "cashout requested on x/x. Approved x/x. Still havent received 30+ days later" and then people saying some 2p2 rep who frequently posts hasnt even logged in for like 2+ weeks.

Hopefully it was an isolated incident(s).

BTW I do have to side with the porche conspiracy. I could have sworn you said you paid in the neighborhood of 80k for it at the time. I dont even know what you sold it for, but there's no way you could have sold it for a profit or broke even for that matter. Everyone knows cars are like the fastest depreciating asset available.

There never was any criticism about this price. The price isn't reflective of my actual hourly. I thought there might be, which was a big part of the reason I went to lengths in explaining why the price is set as it is in the original blog here.

Feel free to re-read that if you didn't understand the first time around. If u have any questions, feel free to ask them here as well.

I'm about to move to Sacramento this weekend and I already shipped my PC up there so I don't have any access to my database for a few more days. I can certainly post graphs at that point though.

Regardless, it's probably best if you just watch my videos if you want to get an idea of how good I am. Go in my cardrunners blog and check out three or four posts down where I copy/pasted about 20 hands I played recently along with my explanation/thought process for each play. That's way more insight to my skill level than any graph (which is subject to variance, game selection, and sample size).

This info isn't even close to being right. While I think my net worth is no one's business but my own, I don't mind sharing that I put 25 down on the car and financed the other 20. I paid it off about 3 years ago and just sold it for 28.

damn these comments took off since I last read them. I read through lot of your blogs the other day and I get a feeling like you want/are trying to mature/change your way of thinking a bit from how you used to act or think about things. I can relate to that feeling alot


look forward to following along with the future progression
