Quittin’ the day job

October 24, 2006 11:15 pm

I have found a source of income that just might have me turning in my ordination papers.

As you may know, my son and I played in a chess tournament over the last two weekends. We did not do very well. But, we did place. We each took 5th place in our divisions. And there were even more than 5 people in each!

For his 5th place spot, he won $150 (MXP). My 5th place garnered me $250 (MXP). That is about $36 US Dollars. That will keep us eating for a few days.

I think I will hold off on contacting my source of income for a little while until I know we can do this well on a regular basis.

with that kind of money, you could just retire early!

Instead of calling you a card shark, I guess I can call you a chess shark. Or maybe a rookman.
