    How do you afford it?

    I've been playin for about 2 years now but I still have no idea how I afforded it in the past but now I really want to find a job or something to help me pay for my paintballing. I'm just wondering how all of you guys and gals out there pay for paintball...especially those of you with XMags, or EMags...

    I'll probably just get a job but I'd like to see what you guys do.

    I'd say it's luck . Right now I'm flat broke (literally) and barely scraping by, but I have an e-mag! I need a job! I basically work for a bit then use my earnings for little things. Oh and sometimes play time must be sacrificed for the greater good

                i spend 30-40 hours a week answering the phone in a call center and getting yelled at by annoying customers who refuse to understand the facts.

                unfortunatly this doesnt cover car payment, insurance, rent, food, flying, AND paintball. and of all of those paintball is the least important. so until recently (hopefully) I've had to take some time off.

                          Two jobs here. But there still are times when I CAN'T afford to play paintball. Yup, it is true. Such is life. And then there are times when I can afford it, but don't have the TIME to play.

                          That is why I built my own field... helps take care of BOTH situations.
