Tell us a bit about yourself and what you do for a living, be honest

Deathgiggle · July 2016

Just curious what everyone does for a living to support your gaming habits? Let's be honest here!! If your a kid or in school that's alright cause I played a lot of games through high school and college as well.

Me: 41 Years old
I own rental properties and manage those for a living
Wife is an RN(nurse)
From Louisiana, love to hunt, fish, boating, anything outdoors
First gaming system was an Atari and yes I also owned the original Nintendo and still remember my Mom buying us the Zelda game!! That and the first Mario were the games that got me hooked forever!
Currently playing ESO on PS4
Got 2 small dogs and 2 cats
Favorite food is steak fajitas

Glad to see I'm not the oldest here

I'm 36, run my own marketing company which allows me the time I need to work on a part-time PhD. Not the most profitable lifestyle compared to having a full time 9-5, but today I spent 2 hours reading in the garden in the sun while friends were stuck in an office, so I'll take that.

My work day often involves me playing for an hour or two in the middle of the day. I will work all morning, brain will stop working so a couple of hours of gaming gets me going again and then I will work into the early evening.

OP, I think I beat you for dodgy first gaming system...behold the might of the Amstrad CPC 464 -

we were posh, we had the colour monitor, not the green screen. Although my smugness was soon reduced when a friend purchased a floppy drive for theirs. grr (yep, I still have a grudge over 20 years later)

I'll just give the rundown of what I do. :P

Late 20's
Two jobs; Programmer (mainly databasing) and then I have my foot in the door with cremations (Currently have my CCO, but I'm slowly getting myself mentally prepared for schooling in regards with embalming as well as mentally preparing for that).
Single (don't care, not looking, I want more cats)
First gaming system (long term) was the NES and old DOS (Windows 3.1) games. Favorite was the SNES, though.
Current game, ESO obviously.
Three dogs, one cat inside and a few outside.
Favorite food's a doozy though, since I'm not picky. :P

Edit; Misread the gaming system. Fixed that.
