need to either be really good or really personable or have a gimmick to make big money but it can and does happen. I wish I was better or less introverted to do it. In a way I was ahead of my time as a child. I used to play Nintendo and make my brothers watch me. My mom would tell me to let them have a turn and I'd say "No they like watching me".

I calculate it separately. Usually more than recommended. -- TomTurkey Feb 12, 2025 at 01:45 PM ET
