I want to put this here:

Conditions/Criteria for me to quit my JOB -
1. I must have at least one year of my wages/salaries + bonuses. I have calculated this to be = $6000
2. I must have 100 BIs at NL50 = $5000
3. I must be winning at 4bb/100 for the last 200k hands at NL50

As soon as all three conditions are met I will insta quit my job.

Did you mean 60000 for wages/total compensation?

Having both conditions 2 and 3 is repetitive as condition 3 is essentially "I must've won at least $4000 over my last 200k hands at NL50", and you wouldn't be playing NL50 with less than $1000 to begin with.

Aside from that, keep up the grind! Looks good so far!
