I've taken about a year hiatus from playing the tables (bought a house with my bankroll) and I've met the love of my life during that time. One day she asked me how I control my emotions so well. Not wanting to keep any secrets from her, I told it was from the countless hours I spent counting cards, dealing with negative variance, and having to keep my emotions in check for AP survival.
She later went on to compare counting cards to dealing drugs saying how it was morally wrong and how it wasn't contributing to society. Since then, I've tried to invest the so called 'legitimate' way (stock market, savings, RRSP) but I'm getting frustrated at the lack of control I have over the rate of return of these investments.
I've had a taste of the life as an AP and I don't think I can stay away :O
I'd be interested to see what the thoughts of the members are on this matter!
