Bankroll ~300$ but i will stop taking agressive shots. I cant play my best when i know that that losing 5bi will take me down in stakes again, etc. So i will see play with ~50bi (i think move down at 40bi or so) and for shot taking i will play mtts in weekends. I will look in the forum to see what brm strategies other players use

Like you can see i did not bust my roll (i made some profit on plo on stars too, not in ev thou) so i am rolled to play 25nl, but i started at 5nl after focus on studying and i will go frome here and start building a bankroll from here. So starting bankroll after i start studying: 200$

Micro stakes approach:
So the plan here is to develop good basics and to learn a lot so when i will take shots at higher stakes i will know for sure that i can come back and rebuild bankroll at 25-50nl. so the goal at micros is to develop good fundamentals and to escape quickly from this stakes
Volume: i have a job so 20-30k hands/month will be sensational. but i really dont want to focus on volume as my goal at micros is to learn a lot and to escape them, not to make a living from it. so if i can study a lot, play v little volume, but feel that my game evolved, then i dont care i didnt put the volume in (i think i prefer study a lot and deposit another 100$ -10bi at 10nl- and not play 10-15k hands at 10nl if i was sure my game evolved from studing, but you cant do that because after you study you need to put in some volume too see the results and to see what other leaks you need to improve).
BRM: the lower the stake, lower bankroll needed. so my move up in stakes plan will be like this: at 5 and 10 nl i will take shots at 20bi and move back down at 15bi (ex: 200$ play 10nl and move back down at 150$). at 16 and 25nl i will use 25/20bi, at 50nl 30/25bi, at 100nl 40/35bi. after i will reach 100nl i will make new plan/goals (like getting a coach, new BRM standards, etc) as this is a stake that can become a source of income too and it should be taken seriously.
when i take shots i may sacrifice some bi to play some tournaments because they can really be a bankroll booster if you hit something big (example: bankroll 200$ i will play 5 mtt 2$ each and that will leave me only 40$ for 10nl shot. something like that)
i dont have poker friends no more after such a long time so i hope i can interact with fellow players here (first step: i will try to leave a comment on hands posted on the forum. at least 1/day or some number/week :)) ).
i will make other short term/long term goals and will post them here.

As variance in PLO is high and rake is high at micros i started to think "what if i study this GTO shit and start playing NLHE again?" :))
And now i kind of like it and i like the challenge to know GTO and be able to adjust to different opponents. i will play some plo for sure, but until mid stakes i will stick to NLHE.
Here are my results from this month after started to study and really started from zero with my strategy (things are so different now)
