Default Re: Question for pros, how do you \"pay\" yourself?

[ QUOTE ]
Not pro for another month or so, but here's my plan:

-have a set number as my necessary bankroll. Anything over that amount, cash out periodically (I'm thinking twice a month, but may go to monthly).

-from this cash out, pay myself a fixed paycheck. The rest goes into an ING account that can be withdrawn from for two reasons: add to bankroll when moving up, and help fund paychecks in bad months.

I'm suprised so many pros in this thread are so "meh" with their finances.

Because it is all their money. Whether it is in party poker, neteller, ing, or their checking account. As someone else said, all you are doing is moving it.
