      I pay next to nothing now to play AT THE GREATEST FIELD IN TEH WORLD>>> TEH PAINTBALL FACTORY!!!!!1


      AND i pick up some goodies that are left behind every now and then.. like storm pods... oakie pods (cept i had to give that one away as a b day present to someone.... >_<), 10 round tubes, a flip open vl squeegie, and fatboys. Would never claim something worth more than $10 that is left though.. I'm a poor (well not really wih being paid to ref at a paintball place) highschooler not a theif.

        Money spent: too much
        Amount of time played: not enough
        The rush: priceless.

              I play 3-4 times of the month
              1 tournement per month
              Never play scenarios.

              No telling how much I pay; depends on how generous our sponsors are that month... sometimes nothing, sometimes a couple hundred.

                    After factoring in the value of all my winnings this year (and realize that this number includes the shocker I bought)

                    $4359.60 spent this year on paintball more than I have made - to date (yeh, I balanced the books tonight).

                    I play every weekend if not more, and go to tournaments at least once a month.

                      how do you afford it, how old are you and where do you work?

                      I am trying to get a good estimate and how much i expect to spend as soon as i turn 17 and get serious.
                      I knew not what I did but am now edumacated

                        way too much...

                        heres the cycle of life:

                        work to make money. take paycheck and spend on paintball. work to make money. take paycheck and spend on paintball. work to make money. take paycheck and spend on paintball. work to make money. take paycheck and spend on paintball. work to make money. take paycheck and spend on paintball. work to make money. take paycheck and spend on paintball. work to make money. take paycheck and spend on paintball. work to make money. take paycheck and spend on paintball.

                        catch my drift?

                            You have to understand that that number includes things like hotel rooms, gas, dinners, and anything else I spend while attempting to make money while playing paintball and that the busines that I have that spends it exists solely for the purpose of attempting to make money playing paintball (some of you will catch the idea of this business).

                            I work, I make decent money, and I have few bills - thats how I afford it. I put a certain amount of money every week into the account (which is specifically for paintball) and thats what I use. Being careful one coudl easily wittle that number down a considerable amount I'm sure.

                              Yea I'm trying to save now money now. So when I get my license I won't have to worry about cash for atleast a little while.
