My head hurts...

From playing NL2 because I gave retards credit.
At first I gave people way too much credit and folded to every raise with 1p type hands or trying to fold people out with draws. After I realized people called my c/r with bottom pair, it clicked.
I just started betting every top pair hand and got looked up with the most retarded stuff, or I'd pot flop pot turn and people would fold a 1/4th pot river. Printing monies! Or rather, finding change!
I cant believe I actually folded to people with top pair...
But hey, 4 tables isnt actually that bad. I like being able to see more hands =D
Rise from NL2- Even worth it anymore?

Hey all, a friend who lurks in LP introduced me. Anyways, we were having a discussion about grinding out a bankroll online from microstakes. I play a fair bit of NL200-NL500 live cash games and do pretty well, know my basic value betting and hand-reading and positional play. Is it worth starting with $50 online grinding NL2 up anymore? I hear the games have gotten significantly harder over the past few years and are getting harder still, so progress up from micros to high stakes are much slower than they used to be. (A skilled player 5 years ago may have made it in 6 months, a similarly skilled player now may take 2 years).
Any comments on that particular idea? I was toying with the notion of depositing online and taking it pretty seriously for a couple months as a hobby. I have a pretty addictive/obsessive nature for games, namely in the past-- starcraft, counterstrike, and most currently league of legends, so I feel like putting time and effort into it, learning the game in more detail isn't something I would tire of easily since there's a very obvious measure of how well you're doing. (Similar to the idea of rankings/stats)
Take care,
M
