Message: [QUOTE="Hsac, post: 6425721, member: 431663"] I'm already a multi-millionaire, though not as much as I was before Covid, recession and drop in stocks. I got it the old-fashioned way, married into it. I'm not saying it to brag, but I'm only mentioning it to explain I don't need the money. I played poker professionally back in the 1980s at brick-and-mortar casinos and private (some seedy) games all over the country, back when it was thought derogatorily of you regardless of how much you won. I was called a degenerate a good many times. Wow, have times changes. Even with the stigma lifted, I don't care to ever go back to that lifestyle. Today I play poker on-line for the challenge, to prove to myself I can still come out ahead even though I'm well past my prime. I might have lost $400,000 in the market so far this year, but I'm up several thousand in poker, and that delights me. [/QUOTE]
