wasting away freeroll winnings

i am a anti-deposit kind of guy, i just play freerolls and try to build a bankroll off of that. im not going to lie i have prolly won about 50$ off of freerolls but i always seem to blow it somehow. I play low level SnG's and i always seem to get retards calling me and beating me on horrible beats, and on higher levels i just cant seem to build up a decent chip stack in a tourney. im just wondering if anyone has any tips for me? ive tried all i can think of not to go broke but it sometimes seems innevitable with me

I have built my bankrolls the same way it's not easy. Private buyins are a good way you usually see alot better play. Also when you play sitngos be real patient in the beginning only play quality hands.

Added money private buyins are a great way to build your bankroll.

Agreed. Money added tourneys is the best way to accumulate cash, plus they are usually the best played games. I only deposit the minimum amounts to withdrawal winnings.
