why would you ever say amounts heh

[/ QUOTE ]

because when friends ask you, it's easier just to say amounts. when you don't, it just leads to more questions and stuff. just giving a general $ number is the easiest. and as long as you're not bragging, it doesn't come off bad.

the major concept people tend to not understand is variance and swings though or short-term/long-term

friends don't ask, and acquaintances who do are always told 'ya, not bad'

My friends used to ask periodically in a very concerned manner how i was going. Luckily that ended when I won 50k in a live donkament which i never told them about. Eventually one of them found it on the net and now they figure i must doing ok, if i dont mention winning 50k. But they understand i dont really want to talk about it and its not a big deal.

But acquaintances if they ask always get the "yeah ok" line.

It wasn't by any chance a $1k at Turning Stone was it?
