Do You Play Blackjack
I play Blackjack more than I do Poker. I seem to win much more between the two. Perhaps, it's because I know I'm taking from the House and not the players...- PokeHer

What is your best investment this year?
Good price. I would have thought .community would've reserved it as a premium domain at the register level and registrars have to sell it at or above that price. My best investment is nicking silver at a $26 low after its run to $31, before coming back down to $28ish. It's ripping faces off... -
Last tv show that you watched
I watched 2 episodes of LOST yesterday and couldn't recall having seen them, even though I know that I saw the entire series. -
Do your parents play poker?
No. My parents were ultra-religious. Caffeine wasn't even allowed in the house... and you think they'd play poker? :p- PokeHer

What's your favorite chat messenger?
Unfortunately, Messenger. I hate it. But, it's what everyone else uses. I've tried to get them to switch to something else, but it's hard to get them on something else when everyone else they know uses Messenger too. -
Have you ever had a bad friend?
I can't say that I ever have. I can read people pretty well and see their intentions from the beginning, so it typically stops at an acquaintance, and then a nobody. -
Do you still speak to old friends?
It's hard for me to keep in touch, but I try to as often as I can. I lost two friends back home, and it hurts in the feels all the same because I grew up with them, staying over on weekends, etc. So, I try to get myself to get a "last" phonecall in whenever I can so I can have something more... -
Have you ever been taken advantage of at your job?
The first job I took in Japan, yeah. I was told that I'd get $100 per day, and since it's normal to be paid in arrears, we don't get our first paycheck until the 2nd month with our final paycheck a month after leaving, and received 10,000 yen per day instead. To put that into perspective, it... -
Have you ever been drunk in your life?
Have I ever been drunk in my life? I have so many stories of drunken adventures that I could fill this thread with 1000 posts. 😂 -
What's your daily motivation?
Same here. Everything I do, I do for them. Either to leave good memories behind, or to ensure their financial security when I'm gone, which the latter is now fortunately checked off. -
What you do when you lose internet connection?
When I lose power, it's typically through a typhoon. So, I'll enjoy mother nature for a bit, and get some rest. We'll have scheduled outages for basic maintenance, and during those times, I still have my cellphone so the internet will still work, whereas through a typhoon, it could go down... -
Foods you can’t stand?
I'm in Japan and this is served quite often as a side. I'll turn it down, but not because I don't like the flavor. I think it was the cause of havoc on my endocrine system, which now makes me have to inject test every week for life. Other than that, some fishes I can't stand. I don't know the... -

If someone offered you $200k to never play poker again, would you take it?
In a heartbeat. I would make $1450/month~ consistently (though I'd reinvest that as I don't need it to grow the overall monthly dividend payout). That's more than I'd ever average in poker as I just play for fun with $20 games and like $100~ pots every now and then. If poker was more of a...- PokeHer

Do you switch off your phone when going to bed?
My nighttime (Japan) is America's daytime. That said, I need to get those important texts to get the phone beeping before I'm awake and alert enough to receive emergency calls (which I hope never happens, but it has before). -
How many bank accounts do you have?
I have 4 banks. At those banks, I have 1 account (savings that I just keep open); 2 accounts (savings/savings); 2 accounts (checking/savings); and 4 accounts (2 checking and 2 savings accounts). If you count credit cards as accounts, I have 4 more. I use my credit cards for all of my spending... -
How often do you have your haircut?
I'm old and don't really care about my haircut and style as much anymore - I used to have to get it done weekly. I'll now only get a cut maybe once every 2 months. However, I have a beard that I like to maintain, so that's done almost weekly. -
How many Gmail accounts do you have?
I used to have unlimited when GMail offered their @yourdomain.com Workplace (I believe that was the product name) accounts if you used Google Domains as your registrar or signed up for the beta. But, that was taken away in, I believe, 2022. Now, I have three paid @mydomain.com GMail names... -
Do you wear hats?
I don't really like accessories like necklaces, watches, rings, etc., and the same goes for hats. But, I live in a very sunny environment. So, I will put on a ballcap now and then if I have to be outside during the day for prolonged periods where I'm observing something such as a parade. But... -
Where are you from?
I'm originally from the Seattle, Washington area, but have spent time in San Diego, CA and near Petersburg, VA. However, I've been in Japan since I was 19, with the occasional trip back to the States, and (I think) I'm 38 now. So, for 1/2 my life I've been in Japan. So it's hard to say that I'm...
