how does everyone afford paintball!...

[Mike XS]

Student loan (tax avoider's ftw )
Bar work (sodding drunks and ridiculous hours)
And now and then site marshalling/parental nagging but sadly that never goes far.

I Don't drink (alcohol ) so that saves alot too. Ah well got to make sacrafices for the things you enjoy doing.

Well...average is about £33k so roughly £2000 a month take home.

Mortgage £750
Loan £250
C-Cards £60
Life Ins £75
House Ins £35
Car Ins £55
Sky £40
Phone £50
Water £35
Gas £37
Elec £70
C-Tax £90
Car Tax £25
TV Licence £11

So that's £1583 before you start.

Then petrol £80, food £100+, incidentals, clothes for the kids, smoking etc.

I doesn't go far mate!

fair dizzle
I dont wanna do that for me, cos ill probably get upset.

Income after tax, NI and SLC = £1611

I really want a tasty burger now.

I looked into becoming a career sperm donor (everybody wins right?) but they don't pay in the UK Now THAT would've been a way to fund paintball! In the states you can get $100 a pop....gutted. Oh well, good ol' interest-free overdraft gets me by anyway. That and starvation combined with no fun.

I don't think it's quite $100. And you can only do one every 24-36 hours.

as you're 15 you cant go into full time, same as me
but see if you can get paper rounds, or pot washing, or glass collecting at a local pub or restaurant

It's funny how real ballers that have no money still manege to scrape enough together to make it to those tourneys and make it to those practice sections to better them self's as plays who want to make it somewhere in this sport. Yes it is expensive but if you have a passion for something nothing is going to get in your way. ( sorry to get all philosophical )

True!

I hardly ever go out with mates anymore lol but its all for a good cause

I always seem to come into just the right amount of money from nowhere just before an event got £80 my dad gave me from selling some scrap metal the other day which is paying for koth 26th, wouldn't have been able to go otherwise

$100 a day would work for me You can get $100 if you're a lawyer with chiseled features and blonde hair, blue eyes etc. Some places pay more for certain characteristics, but mainly it's based on how swimmy your swimmers are and how many of them there are. It's irrelevant anyway, since we live in a country where they only cover costs, and they release the data to conceived children when they're 18......Dad.
