    I'm noticing that lately. I used to do really well in the mornings but not so much here in the past couple of months. My problem is school starting back up. No one is home during the day but come around 4, everyone starts getting home and wanting things from me. Like dinner and attention.

    nahh, it's tempting but I just don't trust him. DC prepping for the best pound-for-pound and then getting a guy who hasnt been training, I like DC a lot. Odds aren't out yet in my book, but maybe a fiver on Silva 1st round KO but that's it.

    watch any last night? fell asleep before Alvarez.

    Yep. Dropped down to 3500 by about 11 PM and then I am pretty sure I was all alone for hours.

    The afternoon drops are the absolute worst during the school year. And it always happens too.

    Ah I missed that, glad it's not just me or just me being lazy. I'm getting closer and closer to moving on from turking. I'm doing online classes and I feel like making money is just getting harder, I can't seem to get a masters and anymore I struggle to even make lower goals.

    Yeah at least neither of them are really little. My son is turning 16 in a couple of months and my daughter will be 10 soon so it isn't like I'm chasing little ones or anything. My husband works and has a really good job but I do this to pay things like my credit bills and buy that never ending textbooks.

    If Pearson Education exploded today I'd do a dance of joy naked on the 5 o'clock news. They are the f'n devil.

    "Cormier will open a -600 favorite over Silva +400, per @FightOdds." Not sure if it will be similar where you bet.

    I forgot there was even an event until pretty late. Switched on the fight just in time to see the end of the main event. A little surprised by the result.

    nah. I woke up, saw Wiktor and went.

    Can't imagine even touching a 5 after a wiktor batch. What a letdown that would be.

    Buy older versions / get used. Look to ebay and amazon. Textbook prices should be illegal the way they are in my opinion and I've made money selling textbooks before.

    5's went down and I saw wiktor... so it was the opposite of a letdown

    Anderson Silva +336
    Daniel Cormier -400

    over 2.5 +126
    Under 2.5 -148

    feel ya. With the stupid suspension and the way mturk's been my quitting goal looks like it's getting pushed back til October instead of the end of the summer. Then I'm done. So far this summer and last is like night and day. Qual people still making it consistently rain but that's about it it seems.

    As for masters, yeah its better than not having it, but it's not what it used to be. Use to triple your earnings or more, now probably 1.5x on avg.

    damn. I knew pinnacle was better but not THAT much better. Using my friend's address here and signing up today. Should've done it over a year ago.

    Will probably go pretty hefty on DC inside, with an extra couple units on by sub and T/KO.

    Not open to US, but I have foreign friends who place for me. There isn't a better book on the planet. No one is even close to beating their odds.

    I do the other stuff I'll need to be doing later (cleaning, getting dinner ready, etc.) so when something drops at 6pm, I can work on it instead of trying to hurry and cook. I never putz around and just make a few bucks an hour. I do something productive so I can be more productive on mturk when there's good work posted.

    Ok, I'm taking my kids to an art class and then we are going Pokemon hunting. There are 3 of those little checkpoint things in my little town, but no Pokemon (that I can see) so we're driving to a city to do it. We looked at YouTube videos yesterday and now my 9 year old is super psyched, which surprised me because he doesn't care about Pokemon at all.

    I buy all of my books used when possible. Some are still outrageous though. If I have to buy new, I look for the international version if they have one. They tend to be quite a bit cheaper. I don't have to really worry about pages not matching up or anything since my work never comes from questions in the book. All I care about is the text so if I know the title of a chapter, I'm good.

    What I loved most about textbooks in college was:

    Start of the semester: $124.99
    End of semester bookstore buyback value: $3.99

    Eventually, I said fuck it and started renting my books online. MUCH cheaper.
