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

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.

Where the money actually is makes little difference, it's the lack of a budget or structured plan that makes this bad. When your income >> expenses it's not a big problem so i'm sure it looks like it's working fine for you. I'd imagine most people with this attitude are in their late teens / early twenties and haven't had to support themselves on a non-poker job before.

I am in my early 20s and am in my last year of school, but I have had to support myself on a real job before. Also, my poker income is much larger than what I need to live. I can see how this would make a large difference. I guess I've never really seen a need for a budget. I should probably take this into greater consideration.
