I feel sympathy for those grinders who have non-grinder gfs and esp those who're gonna expat with them. In my rigged opinion gfs are nothing but shackles and pita, eating into winrate if they can't supply themselves. I prefer to look for a self-sufficient gf after settling down in an ultimate country (or have several ones if multicountrying

). A colleague of mine has moved to Geneve for postgrad and left his gf at home for a year when she was finishing uni, she's just graduated so I'll see what happens next, hopefully their relationship hasn't dissolved yet.

+1, it's possible to combine poker and uni but I've found uni too unpromising in terms of income as I can do hardly any non-scientific work, it will never be gone anyway. Social life is to be forgotten (I'm missing a schoolmate meeting today because I respect my sleeping schedule and I've got nothing to boast for the 17-month period) but y'all say balancing isn't required at the micros, so I regard it as an example of exploitable life

Micro players simply don't have a sufficient hourly to maintain social life.

Btw does programming for poker count as such a project? I obv mean writing a hand chart generator for PPT I've just posted about, but I'm too lazy even to write an autorebuy AHK script atm, let alone FPDB plugins.
