I'm all for playing poker for a living... but theres no way in hell I'd rest my life on a game. Having something to fall back on is a must. Hell, who knows.. tomorrow the government could ban poker entirely... and then what? Obviously that case is extreme, but you get the point.
Im majoring in accounting and I have tons of free time... I play atleast 20 hours of poker a week.

i was dating this chick in the mortgage loan business, she was always getting on me about how playing poker semi pro(i just work part time) was sooo risky and irresponsible. she obv is flipping out because that whole industry just went to the crapper. not much is guaranteed in a free market economy. being a winning player at a level that pays well enough to make a nice living(and save money/invest) is probably as close to a guaranteed income as you can get
