Concentrate on school, buddy.

Everybody you see here freezing high end hardware is past the school years (I think).

I started benching at 37.

I didn't own a computer all through school. I didn't waste money on cable TV. And I purposely didn't own a gaming console because it was distracting.

This time of your life is for school, then relationships, then benching - if there is any free time left over.

Yeah, I'd go budget at your age, no way to keep up with the top ln2 crowd scores without a sizeable budget or Splave-like hardware flipping skillz.

I wanna be like them too when I grow up.

I turn 40 next week.

Still have to grow up though.

Sucks man, I thought reviewing would be a great way to get free HW to review. Instead it turned into a low paying job that sucks up all my "benching" time with reading/writing and benching at low clocks.

I cant freeze the stuff either as I need my stuff to last for the next review.

So for those interested in reviewing. Don't, it is not worth it unless you have no other income. (Or unless you are way more stable then I am and can follow a schedule really well... my life is schedules based on others though... )
