Yes that's true. He should just state it though. We all know he's playing on a tiny roll, I'm not sure why he's trying to hide it from anyone.

And Garick he is drawing dead. Let's just assume he in fact "makes it" and builds up a roll. What does it even mean? How many 2/5 5/10 guys have actually built a nice life through poker? I know of maybe 2 people (out of who knows how many) and 1 of them binked an mtt.
It strikes me that OP just wants to get rich quick, rather than be in this for the long term. He would be better served grinding MTTs online. That way he'd at least have a chance to hit a huge score.
It also strikes me that OP has a number of deep seated insecurities:
-he overspends on his gf to impress her
-he desperately wants to outplay his opponents on every hand (hence all the triple barrel bluffs he's posting to feed his ego/insecurities)
-he wants to be recognized for something in his life. He dropped out of uni, he quit his job, poker is the only thing he's got left.
He is using poker to fill an emotional void, so he's going to hit the wall harder than most when things go south (which they inevitably will at some point).
