Almost Normal

[Brian Prestwood]

I was perusing the first page of the MARS forum this morning when I noticed that it looks almost normal, for three years ago that is.

No getting out posts, no lost my house everything must go posts, just the usual trading.

I'm pretty sure we're all still feeling some financial pressure, I know I am. But its nice to see the forum looking normal for a day at least.

Financial pressure? You bet... but its interesting how an addiction can lead you to scrounge up money you thought you never had. I was watching intervention last night and this father of 3 had a crack addiction of up to $2500 per day... for a second I thought I could almost relate... then I realized I don't have 3 kids!

LoL Ryan we only wish it was that easy ........frag tanks are just another mouth to feed.
We would be lucky if we ever broke even IMHO.
Add up everything we spend to get to the point you can harvest heal and sell frags I'm way to far behind to ever recoop the money I have spent over the years

Very true Paul. Selling frags helps convey this misses that you're not spending more money, more like return on investment (yea!, return on investment, I like that)....lol even though it still may come out in the negative...just not as bad but only all of us knows that ;) oh man, she'll kill me if she ever saw this post!

Its not a "financial pressure" I am feeling, its a "monetary vacuum".
