    I've resorted to pooling all the money I would otherwise spend on food. It's simple, I just sacrifice eating for paintball.

      Work at your regular field...ref, clean up, be a friend to the rest of the crew and in turn they'll be a friend to you.

        I usually pay but the last 3-4 times my mom has b/c all summer all i did was sit on the computer and play CS.
        then i had like 300 and bought a nitro system then went to a scenario that i have been to every year ever sense i started paintballing. (the next one is Dec. 8!!!!!!!!!)
        But like i said i didnt go outside very much and none of my friends called me any more . Then i went paintballing with one and then he called me again and i went again (but my mom paid b/c i hadnt been outside in a long time)
        then that past 2 times 2 of my good paintballin friends called one after another and she paid!
        and woulda thought it took me a summer to break her into getting a paintball gun.

        looks up thanks mom!

        ui know that was rolleyes but o well. I still love her!
        wether she supports paintball or not.

              All I can say is that God provides . I have a semi-job, I ref at the paintball field sometimes. But that is as of recently. I have an allowance of $10, I pay tithe and offerings and end up with about $8. I usually spend about $60 on a day of paintball, and I play all the time. I'm not really sure how I get the money, I don't mooch off my Mom (sometimes I borrow a few bucks, but only if I can pay it back in a couple of days)so I just know that God is taking care of me . But I will be getting my job at TacoBell back in January, so then I will have gas money(all TacoBell money can be called "gas money" I suppose ) and extra paintball money(time to save for an E-Mag!!)!

              ENDO!

                Getting a job at your local paintball field is the way to go. If your my age(15), its really hard to find a job anywhere else. Plus, what could be better than getting paid to hang around the paintball field all day?(actually theres alot more than that but you get the idea)

                      Well, I work in the summer, so that's when I play most of the time. We usually play at a speedball field that I built in the woods behind my house, so we can get cheap paint and air.

                        When the paintball manufactures found out I knew how to make a paintball that lasts forever (and still be bio-degradable when it broke) they paid me millions to keep my mouth shut.
                        I had a Nelspot 007. Did you?

                          get on a team, it might be expensive at first but once all the discounts and free stuff come its all good

                              12 hours a day 4 days a week, thats how I pay for paintball

                              and I shoot crack dealers for a living ok, so it's just a hobby
                              "if I over shoot you, will you respect me in the morning?"

                                I only get to play once every season so it doesn't matter how much I spend. I'll always earn it back... But if I could go whenever I wanted I would be broke after 2 years of paintball...
