wizzle ... marijuana ....oh my god ... you bought marijuana ....me toomatt  

3/6 at the borgata is how I paid for most of my "wizzle" in college.With poker/sports betting winnings (the two have to be combined) I have bought over the last 3 years:-a diamond bracelet for my gf.-trip to San Fran for 2 for 7 days-trip to Amsterdam for 2 for 8 days-barry sanders throwback jersey and Dan Marino autographed jersey-roughly 25 DVDs and 10 PS2 video games-numerous nice meals out with the gf (mr. chow in NYC was the best)-some booze and enough ganja to make snoop dogg blush-sports tickets to several big events including 2003 World series game 6, two Miami v. FSU contests (not this year thank god), a few dolphins road games, 2001 Rose Bowl, and some others i am forgetting.To be fair more of this came from sports betting than poker....but a couple were all poker including the trip to san fran and the diamond bracelet

Soo.. all of this eh?.. well. i'm not gonna list my purchases but i will say 1 thing. weekend in vegas hanging out with Daniel and Co. chillin at his house, VIP treatment at the Wynn, and 1k cash just for sittin at the NL tables for 3 hours.

Thats pretty damn nice! Remember, the above list was over 3 years. Thats a long time. And I have had a couple of stellar sports betting runs in there.You should list your purchases though. Wasnt that the point of this thread?? Poker (and gambling) can be so depressing sometimes, it is good to brag!

Mr. Chow is NY is tits, they just keep bringing food.........then it turns into a club a night

Lol, I'm still building my BR.My first withdrawal from it will be at the end of this month; 10% of September's winnings is going to the ARC for Katrina relief.After that, if I get up to $5k in the roll by Thanksgiving, $2k is coming out to pay for xmas gifts for my family.After that, the BR doesn't get touched until I hit my monthly income & limit goals.

I'm about to withdraw $1000 to buy 2 ounces of gold and several more ounces of silver. Something tells me that inflation-proof currency is going to be the most valuable thing in the US in the very near future.

So is that cave you live in a duplex? or single story?

Actually, I just bought a house...and I'm going enjoy paying off that loan with hyper-inflated dollars.I'm not the guy wearing the sandwich board decrying the end of the world as we know it, but if I'm wrong, I'll have a couple thou in precious metals, if I'm right, I'll have a couple mill in precious metals. The value of PMs sure as hell isn't going down any time soon.

Sorry, I don't follow PMs, can you post a link to some concrete information on financials over the past 15-25 years please.

Suited,I have deejayed a few times with Presyce and Stizo and use to see them around when i was living somewhere that actually had a hip-hop scene (Austin about five years ago)when they used to travel around with a group called Rubberoom from Chicago. I also played a few shows with the manager deejay bird. i actually have some really good footage of presyce doing some scratch routines at my house back then that he ended up using later to win some DMC comps. it's all pretty nerdy subculture stuff just like poker. once you're into it you kind of know everyone and talk endlessly online about it . do you know some people around that way. I have also had to battle at the same DMC as Spryte one from Chicago and that wasn't much fun but he wouldn't know because i played like doo doo that day.shortfuze

I just paid the first of three ER visits.....kidney stones last week with junk insurance. Back to .50/1.00. :cry:

WOW! and OUCH! I had 1 about 10 years ago. I am considered to be a pretty "tough" individual but I am here to tellya I was in PAIN. I woke up 1 morning and literally thought I was going to die. I had no idea what was happening. At the time my mother worked for a doctor and initially went to his office after literally crawling around my place for an hour getting dressed, where they determined that was probably the cause. I was given 30 mg of morphine which I didn't really enjoy and even that left 25% of the pain intact. I do not remember how big it was or anything; I just remember a lot of blood when I passed it. Not a fun experience but if anything good came out of it I now know IF I get that feeling again I know what it is and will probably live through it. :roll:

I can sympathise with the pain thing. I have a pinched sciatic nerve in my right leg that the doctor said needed to work itself out. Advil for me WAHOOOOOO.

(Tuition is paid for by scholarships + fin. aid, bigger D2 school w/in-state tuition)Rent, utils, food, fitness center, + gas for 14 months!Enough clothes to choke a whale, and enough dinners w/ the gf to fund a STD clinic in vegas. Wasted a lot on partying (no weed).Tags/taxes/insurance/cell phone bills.34" sony trinitron + surround sound.$800 fine from the fkn school.About 10 parking tickets, 3 speeding tickets.And a couple of buddies owe me about $600 total.
