Silver Level
Atm I am playing 10NL 6max, 6 tables at once with a $370 bankroll. I'm getting 2x $50 VIP rewards soon, so it should be around $500 in a week or so.
I really enjoy playing and am constantly improving - in the near future I think I will be able to make a reasonable amount of money/month. My long term goal has been to be able to withdraw $200-300 per month to supplement my income. Of course, more would be even better but if I get there it's a good start.
So I looked up how much you can make per month at different limits and came across the following page:

I also pasted the relevant bit for the micro-stakes at the end of this post.
I have 3 questions:
1) Do you guys think the numbers given below are reasonable?
2) I want to move up to 25NL or even 50NL when I have 40BI for the relevant level but I was thinking of cashing out some along the way. So my idea was to cash out half of the profit each month (unless that amount is less than $100) and use the other half to increase my bankroll. What do you think about that as an idea? I know some of you will say that I should use it all for BR building until I can play 200NL or something. But it would be nice to have a bit of extra cash each month and it would mean that I don't reach a level before I am ready for it in terms of my skill/ability.
3) I'm not really comfortable leaving more than $500 or so online. Maybe I'm being overly worried about this, but I was thinking of either getting a neteller account and keeping part of my BR there, or just withdrawing to my current account and leaving it in an unused online savings account I have. What do you guys do about this?
Thanks
How much you can win from different stakes games?
Let’s assume that at each of these levels, you are playing at 4 tables at a time and winning 6bb/hour from each table, which is a fairly conservative winrate.
Maintaining this winrate will get more and more difficult as you move up the levels (and near impossible at the higher stakes games), but we’ll stick with it for the most part.
The average play time for each player type will be as follows:
