    Relax, it's just a cute little catch phrase. You don't have to take it completely literally. Though I do disagree with you, skills do pay the bills in boxing. If you got the skills, you get more money.

          There have been too many Boxers who had Amazing "Skills" but got destroyed by guys with way less talent because they had no heart or mental game.

          If Skills payed the bills then Jeff Lacy would be Richest guy in america.

              and I also know some talented people and prodigies who are struggling to pay rent.

              Skills dont pay bills.

              Skills might help you make money to pay the bills, but you can be the most Skilled person in the world and still be broke.
              not true.........if you are the most skilled person in the world at anything like sports,business,manual labor,doctor,surgeon you will always make big money

              if you are the most skilled person in the world at picking your nose then yes you are going to be broke

              skills do pay bills,face it dude

                    And how do you think these boxers got there in the first place? Like I said, you are taking this saying way too literally and are making a big deal out of nothing.

                      Last time I checked I couldnt pay my mortgage with "Skills" and when paying at a store there isnt a payment method called "Skills"

                      You can be the most skilled person in the world but if you sitting on your couch you will be broke and poor.

                      Skills dont pay for ****. You know what pay's the bills? Having a job and dedication.

                      "Sir, you are 3 months late on your mortgage"
                      "Well, let me pay with my skills, cuz you know, Skills pay the bills"

                      There are alot of ****** mofo's who HAVE no skills but are still millionaires and rich, why? They were born into it, got lucky, married into it. Look at Fortune 500 and the number of idiots working there, they have no skills.


                      Why are so many people having this phrase in their signature? Its the dumbest phrase ever invented,

                      SKILLS DONT PAY BILLS, Money pay's the bills. and you get money from hard work.

                      How many skilled people are broke and homeless? I guess their bank doesn't take "Skills" as payment.

                      Guess what MEdved?........... Skills do pay the bills ya damn jack wagon!
