Default Your poker career in BBV form

I am writing a paper on the subculture of internet poker players for my intermediate comp class. Looking for any stories about how you got started, what you did previously, how it has affected you emotionally, and how you have spent the money.

Focus on what you made before poker, what you make now and what you will do in the future. Brags, beats and variance form please.

Brag: I won a 30+3 NL touranament with 1400 players for 8500 bucks on Party Poker in October, ive also cashed for about 10 grand in tournaments on pokerstars and 400 bucks on UB

Beat: I always bust my tourney winnings in cash games, and my overall hourly rate in poker for the past 4 years is probably 2 cents an hour

Variance: Sometimes I suck at poker, sometimes i am the best poker player of all time.
