If you have a $120 bankroll which you want to make a break with at 10NL but you will put another $120 if you bust then actually your bankroll is $240 and you are easily rolled for 10NL.
Since you can always put in another $20 if you bust out at 10NL then it might be a way to skip 2NL if you are prepared to start at 2NL should it all go wrong.

I do agree very much with courtiebee about a lack of discipline being a potential problem later which is why i have decided to grind my way up from the bottom even if I can afford to put a little more of my personal money in to maybe move up to 25NL a little faster. I also find it very rewarding seeing my BR grow without me putting in any extra money.

If you can create a br, a proper one of 150 or so, then do it. And learn to play. that is best. Dont make a half hearted attempt. either do it or not

Note: WTF!
midas agreed with me!
