Building a bankroll is hard without a real job

I made almost $8,900 in August, my best month yet. But I was only able to add about $2,400 to my bankroll because of this month's living expenses and estimated taxes.

Life sucks almost 100 big bets out of my bankroll every month, making it harder to move up in limits. If I played twice these stakes, I'd only be draining 50 big bets per month. Or If I had a steady income source that paid the bills, then all winnings could go directly to the bankroll.

I think my new plan is to not have any downswings. That should make everything easier.
