The average salary for an individual in the US is $58,000.
Have you made more than $290k over the last 5 years? Without the hassle of a boss yelling at you, telling you what to do, punching a time clock, Telling you when and where to work?
If you have...shut the fuck up. This is what you have chosen to do for a living. There are obstacles that go with it, like a casino industry that wants and attempts (at various levels) to stop or discourage advantage players. It is part of the deal.
Be grateful 300lb black Rodney didn't break your arm.
Oh and if you don't like these "obstacles" that are part of APing for a living, go get a job with some moron telling you what to do and when you can take a piss.
