What are you guys doing w/ your rolls?

I'm a young guy working for a financial advisory service so obviously I've been buying stock etc. What else are you guys getting into for business ideas? I'm making a ton more money playing cards and on my investments than I am on commission from my job. I'm looking into commercial real estate and maybe franchising ideas?

Obviously, I will keep playing poker but how else can I invest outside my limited world of stocks/bonds/poker. I am not super knowledgable about real estate (other then about the financing options).

For the moment, I'm sticking my money in Emigrant and concentrating on school. Boring, I know :-)

Apparently the horses... But seriously, why is everyone quitting so easily. I don't tihnk online poker is going anywhere, ever.

Maybe I'm just seriously in denial.

This is something I want to do in the future when my roll gets larger (only at a measly 2k now) they also have the best interest rates on CDs around, so maybe when I get a little extra money I'll start putting some of my roll into those, so it can accure interest.
