based on my experience the guys that talk the most frequently about money are the guys that are making the least of it. Corollary to that when you have been around a while you are less enthralled by dollars and more by the victory associated with consistent high performance. Think about it: To someone making x amount per typical week, making x is the expectation and it is not a big deal.

People talk in a way that reflects two things, how they want to be perceived (true or not) and about what bothers them (always true).

I'm only going to type positive stuff at or about guys in the forum. If I have a question about character or content I'll just ask respectfully and move on...I don't need the distraction.

@rocksolid68 has yet to talk nonsense or lead guys astray. There is evidence in what he says that he does know what he is talking about as it relates to his specific approach. His path does seem similar to guys that had no idea and no right to be heard. He says he is posting to share with others, that is noble, and I believe him. His content will change, evolve and improve as he gains more and more experience. IMO he will learn a great deal through the process and continue to get better and better at the craft and at sharing it here. Credit, of course to the guy that puts himself on the line and makes calls in a way that creates accountability. The guy is smart, friendly, respectful and enthusiastic. IMO the community should encourage people. So, good work man. Focus on what makes you happy. If you want to make a spreadsheet because it will help you in specific goal attainment, do it.

I'm sure if you called up your local casino and told them you wanted to drop by and play a martingale system on one of their games they'd welcome you with open arms. The house always has the edge in the casino and if they feel they don't they will refuse your action.
