    What do you do for a living? Probably a lot of you here work as professionals. I pay $5,829 a semester for college, two semesters a year. I pay it myself, no student loans, FAFSA, etc. I have other expenses. I don't know what your rent is in New England, here I live in one of the cheaper neighborhoods in NYC, the rent is $1300, plus phone bill, utility, etc. College books are not cheap either. Transportation everyday stacks up, food, etc.

    All that and I don't have a salary based job, like you probably have.

    So no I am not joking, baller.

    For your $1300 rent, you pay that for a 1-bedroom, studio? Or you got roommates? And what borough? I'm just curious cause I've been thinking of grabbing a place in one of the boros or Long Island. But I want a 1 or 2 bedroom.

      i don't work on a salary. i'm self employed. i don't have a rent either. i'm a homeowner. i'm really not a lavish baller, kelvie, just a ball breaker. i do ok for myself.


      if you're in school you shouldn't feel any shame about streaming it. some of these guys are deadbeats, and just don't want to spend the money.

        At my house it's HD. But I had to order SD for the canelo angulo fight because my parents didn't have HD at their house. I thought It was the end of the world but honestly I didn't mind & I don't think anyone watching did either. That said, I'm still getting HD when possible.

                There should not be an up charge.

                It should be **** definition, or standard definition?

                And now with 4k TVs on the rise.

                Technically a 2006 720P older tv, and a brand new sony 4k tv are both "high definition".


                i pay about $140/mo for all my cable stuff...throw in a single PPV and with the taxes that come with it, it's easily $100 more...that's why i stopped hosting fight parties for a while now but whenever i do buy a card, might as well buy the HD feed

                  dude, he f#cking asked me to tell him those things.

                  owning a home and a business doesn't make me bigheaded. you're probably not a success, and that's why you find it remarkable.

                    I'll keep streaming until they start giving us better undercards. The last PPV I bought was Mayweather/Alvarez and that was mostly for Matthysse/Garcia.

                    HD streams are getting better every day.
