I\'m going to train homeless people to make a living playing poker
I posted in ssnl but thought it'd get more responses here
I thought of doing this a while ago, and maybe after summer I will put this plan into action. I'm going to put together a team of homeless dudes and show them my playbook i put together off my own beats. Not the homeless people who could be working but aren't, but the guys who seriously have had some bad luck/could use a break. One time last year I just got done meeting someone for lunch. I walked out to my car and was getting in and someone rode up to me on their bike as I was closing my door. I rolled down my window and he asked if I could share any money at all. There was something real convincing about this guy for some reason. Like he really did need it. He told me he'd been riding around all day trying to be able to afford a room for him and his wife to stay for the night. You could tell he had like $20 in quarters in his pockets cause dude was jingling like crazy. We talked for a minute, and he asked if I could even just spare a little change, he'd appreciate it. I asked how close he had gotten so far on the day for the room. He said he was $8 away. I grabbed $8 and gave it to him. This guy was ecstatic! He couldn't believe I had given him $8. It was like the lottery to him. I've never met someone more grateful in my life for something. For some reason I just really believed this guy could use a break, and I felt great that day that I was able to help him out. That was just one day though. Who knows, the next day maybe he had to ride his bike all around town again trying to afford food/shelter. If tomorrow it's same [censored] different day, I didn't really help him, I just prolonged his situation. Give a man a fish, he'll eat for a day. Teach a man to fish, he'll eat for a liftime. But what if I took a bunch of guys like that and showed them how to provide for themselves. Poker is so easy that there's still soooooo much free money at the lower levels that I think some smart homeless dudes could be tearin [censored] up. I mean, think about it. A lot of people need like $3,000/month to live. Homeless people don't need anything near that. If they could learn to make even just $1,000/month playing poker it would change their lives forever. That would be soooo easy to teach someone with half a brain how to make a grand or two a month. You could make that playing the penny stakes. It would seriously change their lives. I would get a bunch of guys seriously in bad situations, and try and change their life. So................. thoughts on this idea? |

I don't see any flaws in this plan.

Re: I\'m going to train homeless people to make a living playing poker
so you gave this guy 8 bucks because he told you his go-to crack money bum story? You're pretty naive.

What makes you think they wouldn't run bad? They are obviously running bad at life.

Are you homeless? I can teach you if you want, but you have to give 85% of your winnings and be my slave for next 10 years.
