Ya I guess that does seem sort of weird from the outside. It's really just because playing a full schedule every week and then adding in the twitch workload, and there isn't much time to take care of life things. I suck at life things anyways so why not hook my brother up with his first job!
Thanks man
This Thanks for always chilling Bhoylegend
Thanks you guys
I'm going hard! It's not quite 12 hours a day but 8 hours of poker 5 days a week. The twitch/youtube stuff is separate. I really enjoy what I do and its such a new opportunity. I don't want to miss out by slacking. Iv'e always been a very one dimensional kind of person so finding something like this is really enjoyable for me.
Thanks you guys
I actually think Im fairly aggro BR wise. I'm not backed so I have all the risk. The WSOP is awesome but I don't want to not stream for 2 months so a little of both is better I think.
I understand what your saying man. Poker and broadcasting to me is like what that startup was to you like you suggested. Im sure you remember nothing else mattering at the time.
Thanks man
Hey 8 hours a day sounds a lot! better to me the 12+!! hours, that is quite a difference.
But hey i think doing what you love to do is almost all a person needs to be happy, and a good way to live your life[except if you love to use heroine or crack or serial killing or sh.t like that off-course lol if you know what i mean], no matter what others think, like the saying goes "you can't make everybody happy"
O man when i think about my starting days of my business, i can't believe i survived the first 2 years, but also the satisfaction/joy of knowing that you are going to make it in a business[import/export of anything that is worth a buck and can make a buck on] you love to do, 20 hours days where the rule other then a exception the first 2 years, and playing poker to finance some deal, rather then loaning it from friends or family, many days right from the table to work, yea that feeling of making a profit of money earned at the poker-table instead of borrowed money is something special i tell you!, because i love poker and loved the job i did.
Would not have missed it for anything, despite of having no life next to work for the first 2 years, making money one time by breaking your back by moving product, and the other time making the same amount by just making 2 phone-calls, one day talking to a German a other to a Englishman then a Greek or Frenchman, and the one day buying and selling containers with 5 complete holiday cabins in it, and the other day a container with 2 million screws in it, there was nothing else that made me happier then that at that time, and not much other things do i must say.
But one thing i advice you, always be honest, it is the best[and for me the only] way, to be successful and it always pays more in the end/long run, i am convinced of that, because cheaters and thieves i have seen coming and going in the dozens over the years, in poker and business, and always work to live, never live to work.
All the best to you, and all the luck, you might not need it, but it is so nice to have it once and a while.
