There isn't really any point to this blog post, just been feelin pretty good lately and felt like sharing.

It always feels like poker skill/success is measured in money won. I just don't look at it like that at all. I was listening to Wiz Khalifa's album Rolling Papers for the first time and this track "When I'm Gone" really caught my ear. I liked the idea behind it and I definitely relate to it...

"I'm gonna spend it all//
Why wait for another day?//
I'ma take all this money I own//
And blow it all away//
Cuz I can't take it when I'm gone"



I haven't had anything like the success some people have had in poker, but I've made a lot of money for someone who wants to live the lifestyle I've chosen. I'm almost 6 years removed from college now, my chosen path in life is pretty clear, and I have to say this wasn't what I originally planned which is why it was a little difficult to come to grips with it at first, but now that I've accepted it, I am pretty satisfied with it.

For the last month I've been spending most of my days in bed poppin norco's, xany bars and alcohol. And my nights roaming the Pacific Beach streets hangin at some neighbor's and friends houses and walking down the coast.

I haven't had any responsibility in 5 years, I'm actually just now about to embark on my first actual adult responsibility, coaching a high school varsity basketball team. I'm movin out of San Diego for 5 months on the 31st and headed to Scottsdale Arizona. It'll be nice to have a little change of pace, but of course I wouldn't want too much of it.

I like not having responsibilities, I like not having stress or being rushed, I like having the time and money to just chill.

If I really wanted to bust my ass and work 40 hours a week, I think I could make a quarter mill a year, but what am I gonna do with all that money? I don't see any advantage to it, it'd be a very stressful time for me, and when I think about it, I'd probably blow it all just the same.
