People call me a nerd/geek/loser but whatever. I made bank playing fking video games. LOL

Prize pools in recent tournaments are insanely high though. The DoTa world tournament had a MILLION DOLLARS yes a fking MILLION DOLLARS grand prize. Your team is comprised of 5 people so divide 1m by 5. $250k per person un-taxable.

Single Starcraft 2 tournament winner gets an easy $168k a month (since tournaments are held once a month).
Holy shit!!! That's some serious money...

I'm sure even if I wanted to, I couldn't beat a single online match of Starcraft. I'd probably get my ass handed to me by a infant Korean child... They come out of the womb knowing how to harvest vespene gas...

That's crazy!!! If I had won that much I would have gone with a nice new Mustang or revive an old Barracudda for my dad.

My very first car I got was a 96 Pontiac Grand Prix by my parents (pic is exactly the same).
The first car I ever bought was an 02 Honda Accord EX-V6 in HS (pic is about the same as mine). Since I went to a private school just about everyone was driving a BMW, Mercedes, or a Caddillac.

1991 Nissan Sentra SE-R



I drove around in my dad's 1981 Firebird Formula for a while, but the Sentra was my first car.

1981 Ford Mustang Hatchback with a straight 6 and automatic. The speedometer topped at 85 and the car could barely hit it. It was a beater but it started every day and took a beating from a 16 year old idiot.
