I thought up some ideas on how to be smart with financing before (even with an okay job and after cutting costs) and it was an awesome idea, but I forgot it. But another idea was: im the superintendent of my building so I don't pay rent. The best thing I can do is buy an apartment (2 bedroom for like $35,000) from a government owned building, then once it goes private, rent that out for like $10,000 a month while I stay home and collect bank. Or sell it for close to $800,000. My friend just recently did that, except he wasn't a super so he just chose to live in the new, soon-to-be $800,000 worth apartment for only $35,000. THAT'S A STEAL. It woulda been worth like $350,000 but he spent $100,000 to renovate it, and that makes it's worth skyrocket, especially after the building is owned by a private contractor and not a government anymore.

Are you aware that there are people in this world that have a severe medical condition which causes them to be that way? My mother for instance is one of those people. She is a truck driver that has bad knees and a bad back from driving the truck but you probably do not care about that case either. Oh well I am not one of those people I am 6'4" 245lbs and I exercise every day. I would love to see you say something like to my mother in front of me. Probably never happen though you are probably just an internet tough guy. I doubt very seriously you would say that to someones face. Just my thought.What do you think. Oh I am sorry you probably do not have a brain. I on the other hand will be happy to buy you a plane ticket to come here and see if you have the nerve to say that to someone I know.

I'm so confused...

The problem is you're focusing on the things in life that don't really matter. When I was a kid I had hopes and dreams. We all did. But over time, the daily grind gets in the way and you miss the things that really matter, even though they are right in front of you, staring you in the face. I think the next time you should ask yourself "Am I on the right track here?". I don't mean to be rude but people like you I really pity. So maybe you could use the few brain cells you have and take advantage of the knowledge I have given you now. Good luck.

Tuna (in water) is probably the cheapest form of protein (after all, that WAS the original question right?). I mean, ounce for ounce, pound for pound. Plus it has Omega 3's which is also a plus. But don't go gorging yourself with it at every meal. Just like with anything, excess is not good.

Having said that, whey protein isolate is also another inexpensive source if you're looking in the right place. NOT GNC. NOT some Super Duper Max Gainer Miracle Supplement X5000 - I would STRONGLY recommend against these proteins powders with Arginine added, Creatine added, etc. etc....NOT because those added components are bad, but because the QUALITY of ingredients AND the QUALITY of the ingredients are just horrible. Remember, these are BUSINESSES. Companies. What matters most is the bottom line. Profit. Money. Period. If they can get away with using less or lesser quality ingredients and still have the ingredients label say "contains X", then they will do just that.

If you want creatine in your protein drink, then add it yourself. If you want arginine or ornithine, then add it yourself.

My nutritionist has opened my eyes to so much in this category. With changes in my nutrition ALONE, I have dropped 6 percentage points of body fat, shaved .5 seconds off my 40, and increased my standing vert by 3 inches. It really is amazing what the body can do when it is fueled properly. And remember, "Fueled properly" means via nutrition FIRST AND FOREMOST! Supplements ARE NOT a miracle and will only work properly with a proper nutritional foundation (hence the word "supplement" aka "in addition to" not "instead of")

I get all my stuff from Purebulk.com - NO I'm not an affiliate and I don't get any profit from promoting them. It's just awesome pricing for pure ingredients.

Enter coupon code fffitness for 5% off. Again, I DO NOT get anything for that. They love my sports nutritionist and have hooked him up with that code for his clients as a courtesy. I don't think he gets anything out of it either. I've asked him before and he said it was cool to share the coupon code so......check it out for yourself.

So what exactly did you changed in terms of nutrition? What and how often were you eating before and how about now?
Current PR status:

All time squat: 165 kg/Old age squat: 130 kg
All time deadlift: 184 kg/Old age deadlift: 140 kg
All time bench: 85 kg/Old age bench: 70kgx5reps
All time hip thrust (same as old age hip thrust): 160kgx5reps
