You’ve gotta get creative during a recession. Hard times create strong men.My poker bankroll is still climbing.
Doesn’t look like much now, but it’s setting foundations to multiply if I keep my edge.Hardest part is the mental game.
Up 1.5x the stack, down to 0.75, then climb back and win. Tilt at 0.75, or breathe and bounce back?
I don’t see myself doing this forever. For now poker is my bridge overseas.

"Now, this schoolroom is a Nation. And in this nation, there are fifty millions of money. Isn’t this a prosperous nation?"
‘What did you say?’ asked Louisa.
‘Miss Louisa, I said I didn’t know. I thought I couldn’t know whether it was a prosperous nation or not, and whether I was in a thriving state or not, unless I knew who had got the money, and whether any of it was mine."

"Songs don't wear out. Good songs are good now. If they were a comfort during those hard times in the past, they'll be a comfort in today's age."
