 | | refutor: i was reading http://www.chesscafe.com/misha/mish... and i found this interesting passage in regards to comments made by alexander goldin "MS: I remember I read an interview with GM Alex Goldin, where he said that a successful American player can make about $70,000 in a moderately successful year." is that true? $70K is nothing to sneeze at |

 | | WannaBe: <refutor: ... is that true? $70K is nothing to sneeze at> I wonder if that's tournament winnings only, not counting if you write books (Eric Schiller) be a tournament arbitor (Eric Schiller) write articles/puzzles for papers (Nigel Short, Ray Keene, etc.) And participate in Geek Cruises (Susan Polgar)... |

| Oct-12-05 | | centercounter: GM Goldin is very talented apart from chess. He plays acoustic guitar and juggles very well. He is friends with a local chess store/school owner here in Orlando and comes to do simuls/lessons, as well as tournaments. |

| | DarthStapler: Although I did manage to win a pawn early on |
|
| Jan-04-09 | | WhiteRook48: that may have been a pawn gambit. I thought you never lost games.
Seems this guy liked looking for gold. |

| | wordfunph: <CIO> mostly from chess magazines and books. "In Russia and continental Europe, a Grandmaster feels he's on top of the chess pyramid. Here in US, everyone asks me for autographs, but no one provides a hotel room or spending
money!"

happy birthday GM Goldin! |
