Random thoughts:
1. It doesn't matter what nearly all people say or think about you in person much less on a message board.
2. If you're in your 20's and have no dependents, you do not need life insurance.
3. If you're getting crushed, stop. If you're in your 20's, even if you're not getting crushed, cut your action in half, save $10 or $20k and buy a piece of property.
4. I'm still wondering how or if I can win without the rebates I was getting from Pinnacle.
5. If you're betting the kind of $$ you mention at your age, it's perhaps not a good thing... no matter what your financial situation is.
6. I am still lamenting my corner gas station discontinuing sales of the Daily Racing Form.
7. In the end, there is only so much cheese and everyone is, indeed, a rat. Make your best friends outside of work.
Seriously, I'm flabbergasted by the amount of money some of the younger people say they wager. An average 25 yo is probably in his/her first or second job and making $35 or $40k. If you're doing better than that, that's good but still gambling at a high or relatively high level without having accumulated some assets is not a good thing. For every 22 year old you see winning big on TV poker, there are probably another 1,000 somehow lying their way into their next $50 sit-n-go.
