Not true. I joined to ask ?'s about the game, but learned quickly what type of people play this game and their illusions in life.I know, I know. Friggin' Kansas education. Also, I find it hillarious that this "big money making, better than all poker players" ****** joins a POKER FORUM to bash on POKER PLAYERS. You sir are a complete waste of time and air. I feel bad for your girlfriend, because obviously by your posts, your hostility towards strangers must be trying to compensate for your tiny penis.
Congrats good sir, you have made the dumbest post in this thread. Whats going to crash?i own but if i were in the market at this point i would just keep renting because its gonna crash. a half point increase in mortgages and most people with an average priced house are in trouble. renting gives you more freedom too.
The market will level out and the morons who have adjustable rate mortgages may be in trouble, but nothing will crash. People will always be buying houses, always. They were buying houses in the early 80's when % rates were at %13, so why wouldn't they buy now when they are still low. You, sir, are very misinformed.

The majority of lawyers dont work at big firms. You have to go to one of the best lawyer schools and graduate at the top of your class before you can work at one of the "big firms."you criticized anyone who pays rent, not just people in this forumyou may have intended to just knock them, but you didn't, you said anyone who pays rent; And as an aside, you can look online, I just did, but starting scale for a lawyer in NY at a big firm (or even upper midsize) is in the six figures; not knocking you, but be specificmost people in this forum arent playing to be pros, most play for fun; but either way, your criticism was of renters AND poker players; not just the latter. -
I have a problem with that quote. You are a different person depending on how much $ you have in the bank. I've been poor before, it sucks. Having to put back groceries when you get to the checkout line b/c you can't afford them is something I'll never forget. Money gives you freedom, and with freedom comes happiness. Doing something you dont enjoy, just so you can pay the bills is not freedom, and will not bring happiness to many. Therefore, you are how much money you have in the bank.How about what kind of a person you are? I'd like to take you on in that competition.That is...if you are done looking at yourself in the mirror.Here's a lil quote for you.You're not your job. You're not how much money you have in the bank. You're not the car you drive. You're not the contents of your wallet. You're not your ****ing khakis.Oh, and you aren't anything special by talking **** on a forum.Have fun with your AWESOME life. -
Pivvy, I am confused as to why you are brining doctors and lawyers to a poker forum. Also, I am quite sure I make more $$ than a lot of lawyers. Realize that many lawyers are forever stuck in the 60-70k dollar range.I am talking about people on THIS forum. The people that have illusions of making it big in poker, all while just getting by or living with parents still. Those are the people Im referring to. Why you would bring up professionals is beyond me. Im sure there are people that are bad with money in every profession. Im referring to the losers grinding it out in poker, never hoping that one day they will have to face reality. It seems many of you are content to just scrape by with your measly poker winnings.

If rent for a beautiful apartment in brooklyn is $800, you should be able to buy a decent place for $250,000. You obviously know NOTHING about real estate. Whatever though, you seem content paying someone else's mortgage.Yeah, it makes a lot more sense to spend $200,000 on a rathole on East 375th St. than to pay $800 a month for a beautiful apartment in Brooklyn. You're really smart Rob. What're you, from Kansas or something? -
I do own a house, this is my second one. Im 25, and haven't done anthing to awe about in life. BUT, I dont understand why people throw their money away on rent, especially those people to afraid to do anything but play poker. Even in New York city, you could buy a 400-500 sq ft place for the low 200's. So what if you have to live in a dump for a little bit, at least your on your way out. What most of you fail to realize is that you will never beat poker, and will never be much more than a break even player. Move on, poker will only treat a very few amount of people well. The sooner you see that, the better.
There is nothing wrong with paying rent or playing poker for a living. Most of the people i know that have full time jobs would take a half salary pay cut if they could play poker for a living. Not everyone plays poker to make more money than they normally would, they play instead for the immense freedom that comes with it, being able to do whatever they want, sleep in, go on vacation without consulting your boss, etc. Maybe you just don't get it. All those grinders and their immense freedom? I dont even know where to begin with your post, kid.
More successful? How do you measure that? Shall we post up bank statements? Pics of house/cars? Pics of wife/gf? I'm 25, how old are you?Rob/KIGS/Redpill/Redpill's even dumber brother/JFarrell:what you need to realize is that most people come here to discuss poker, talk about hands and engage in the game; not to flame people like you, but when you write something so inspiringly dumb, we really have no choice.As someone who pays rent, I should be offended by your post. Except that I feel like there is not a doubt that I am more successful than you. If your life was so great and you hate this site so much why have you been a member for a full year. Why spew your venom today. Go out, enjoy the fresh air, take a walk in the park with your imaginary friends. play poker if you like it, but why bother posting the way that you do.to show your superiority? if so, you are failing at that as well, as I am sure that I am not the only person that thinks that is quite unimpressed by you. grow up.

and still pay rent or/and live with mom and dad?
-
Shocking.I ain't got no stinking job.
How old are you guys that have responded? Still living with mom and dad? Still paying rent?+1, but thats only because my family thinks that playing poker is not a job, fck them.JEFF I told you, the people that hate on this thread are the people Im talking about.

Thank you for justifying my above post.I don't have a job :lol:I make around $0.75 an hour playing poker :lol:You're fat :D -
I've been on here a little over a year, and this site takes the cake for most pathetic members.
Just answer this question honestly: How many of you are working at shitty jobs, pay RENT, and hoping to bring the real $$ in from playing poker? I am willing to bet that is most people at this site. I have never seen so many people ride a certain person's nuts so hard, its hilarious. The haters that respond to this thread are most likely the person I described above. Carry on now, that million dollar win is just around the corner.

I just laugh at all you idiots that think you can really make a living from doing this.

Im throwing a ton of money into a company called "Geely." This is a Chinese auto company.Its easy to get started, I go through Charles Schwab. Its prolly not the best, but I like they advice/help from there. Pm me for more info.What's the best way to go about getting started?Ive got a lot of money floating around online from poker and it's sitting idle, and it's about time i start investing it. -
I dont do a lot of day trading, mostly I'm in the stock market for the long haul.You do need a bigger capital, something most of the kids here dont have. Yes, I do this all online, except some foreign stocks which I have to call in.

I've seen the light.

3-6 NLLately I've been playing 1-2 NL live.What limit do you play??? -
It was about 50/50. Its more fun to say poker paid for it all.didnt you say last time that this house was mostly financed by your real estate endeavours but partly from poker? I dont play on playing poker as serious as I have in the past. There are much more easier ways to make money, and require much less headache.Oil is my new poker.

What? Men can't have purses? Its my wifes dude.Nice purse..."Rob"?In all seriousness, I hope we see more threads like this. I hope FCP is a starting point for many successful poker careers, how is that a bad thing? -
I posted about this house about 3 weeks ago. Well, I closed last week, and im pretty much unpacked. Poker has been good to me. How many people can say they bought a house with poker money? Not many. Ivey was right when he said most people have no idea how to play poker, they just think they do. Carry on.View from office:

Doesn't matter, a no doc loan is not hard to get if you credit is great. Especially is someone were to have a huge downpayment, it would make it that much easier.I worked in the industry as an underwriter dude. I would have denied you. Not a whole lot of money in drug-dealer loans. -
Wow, finally getting some responses I expected to get.
I'll make sure and take some more pictures once I move in sometime next week. Also, I didn't say I was going to contiue to play 3-6 NL for the rest of my life. I have a degree, and I will be getting a job soon. I am not a realtor, or a carpet installer, I just bought the house. To whoever said a no-doc home loan is hard to get, you have NO idea what you're talking about. -

First the bird flu, now this? Its time to go underground and build our own society, who's with me?What?? Where did u see this? What if the bill passes...when will it go into effect? What about U.S. players that currently are playing at online poker sites and have money in their accts? How would players withdraw money? There's gotta be some advance notice...Also, poker pros like DN say that the bill will never pass and online poker will not be banned in the U.S. Hope DN is right!Also, guys and gals sign up for the Pokerplayersalliance. go to pokerplayersalliance dot com and register. It only costs $25 I think and party poker will reimburse u this money if u sign up. I am not endorsing any sites...just think online poker should not be banned. -
Nope. In fact, I'll be ripping a lot of the carpet out in the next couple of weeks. Kitchen counter tops will go too.

You think selling ONE piece of property is considered a job?
Much better.Oh...I almost forgot...to the OP: Your house is a total dump.How long did it take you to get rid of the crack whores living in your kitchen?Did the bums taking craps in your garage give you too much of a problem?
How Many Here Play Poker For A Living.....
