Default Keeping records=winning player???

I just read in the other post about that and thought I'd chime in about this on a seperate, clean thread.

I use to keep records. I kept records for about 3 months. This is when my bankroll grew 15X my initial deposit.

Since then, I must admit I have not kept records. The only records I keep now is my neteller account, which, suffice to say, does a pretty good job for me because the number always goes up significantly at month's end.

Is anyone else on this site making lots of dough but not keeping records, or am I the only one that feels somewhat insulted by the insinuation that those who don't keep records are losers?

DISCLAIMER: This post is not used to support BrianSwa, or anyone else for that matter .

To clarify: I have never meant to suggest that those who don't keep records are losers. What I am suggesting is that losers don't keep records. Please note that these are two very different things.

And of course this doesn't go for everyone.... I'm speaking generally.

Default Allow me to the post the Corollary

Not all players who keep records are winning players. I keep pretty good records, and if I ran any colder lately, I'd reverse global warming.
