For me I punt when I want and feel like it, no set routine and a mix of ML and WL
Only 3 or 4 average punts in 24, most of them fun and not sure on the total as I do not count
Probably starting my Punting Year tomorrow, if I can find a good option
2025 resolution - keep track of punting spent. I don't think i've crossed 10k for 2024. :question:
52 times 300 = 15_600 plus some rage holidays; probably, it would be more than 17_000 total in 2024
2024 ended up about ~$1.2k across like ~7 punts. Base salary $400k, does not factor cash bonus.Quote:

Finished the year at $14k approx after some late year Nov/Dec acceleration!
Hence the handle "Raging Bull", from the NYSE Wall Street statue, yep ?Quote:

It's quite amazing how salary have grown and skyrocketed among the younger professionals especially in the fields of IT, Engineering and Finances.
Good on you guys and happy punting.
Cheers

I have 2 SB. But they are funnily enough cheaper than working girls. Il do long bookings every no and then. And then try privates or different brothels , just whatever really . I took my SB to a brothel once. 😂
That was March. I ended up on about 7.7k for the year which is only about 150 per week approx on average. I was having more civvie sex 2nd Half of 2024 so it petered off a bit and have started off in that vein so far.Quote:
