Money. Period.

I'm still searching for a woman that would actually make me change my mind.

Depends on how much money we're talking about

Now that's a true line of thinking.

What the hell is love anyway? Some substances flooding your brain. Eat chocolate people! Same effect in theory...

I don't like or-statements.

If the question is purely would you break up with true love for x amount of dollars, then I prefer love because it is easy to accumulate money but it is very hard to find true love. When you say: 'depends on the amount', I say: 'it depends on the trueness of your love'. If you really found your true love (in a way that this is possible), no amount is enough to cover this loss (if an external force breaks the relationship up). I also don't care about having 5M or 10M as long as you can have a high enough living standard, more money is not so valuable anymore. But ofc, if you feel that its not real love, ship da manies.

If the question is chosing between love or poker? As stated earlier, if some1 is preventing me from doing certain things that I love, its no true love.

This sums it up for me. Nothing would make me give up my gf. She gets a bit annoyed at the time I spend playing poker, but is pleased I have something I enjoy, and I'm sure when I start cashing out she won't mind it at all :P

If you think money > love, you aren't doing right

And what if certain things that you do that you love make the person unhappy ? Are you saying they can't love you because they would accept absolutley anything you enjoyed doing - Poker, Sky Diving, an unhealthy obsession with hookers, crystal meth ?

Money is a necessary but not sufficient condition for happiness. You need enough money to get by, but there's so much more that you need, including love. I have enough of both, and am smugly self-satisfied about the whole arrangement. Flame away! :f_biggrin:

Love.

It's love for poker that is keeping me at the tables.


When people say how much all that means is that they are whores who are tying to find out their true price.
