a pro playing 0.50/1.00 is pathetic, and retarded.
playing 120,000 hands a month is just not sustainable. You might last 3, 4, 5 months, but 2 years down the road, do you really want to play 5,000 hands a day, 25 out of 30 days every month, of every year? The answer is you will kill yourself, or want to.
Play 5000 hands of 6max, playing 6tables at a time. so that is about 500 hands an hour, that's 9 hours a day, 25 days a month.
Good luck with that.

I agree with everything you said. The question is, will he keep staying @ $0.5/$1? If anyone spends 6 months and realize that he can't win at $1/$2 level, I would suggest him to give up too. The thing is, if you don't have to pay tax for your winnings, a full time $1/$2 pro is already in a leading group (Income wise) among the world population under the age of 30.
I ain't sure if OP has considered all these or he just has a quick beginner's plan and think "[censored] this is easy money" before a long term goal. I would say that being a pro as low stake as $3/$6 can be pretty profitable while enjoying a lot of freedom/leisure time in his life.
Like I said, most players in this community are lucky people. I for one don't really think it's reasonable to expect a 5 figures income per month by clicking mouse 3 hours a day/20 days a month when you are in your mid 20s. Therefore I don't think the OP's plan is pathetic at all if he has planned to move up at some point. Considering playing 6 hours of $3/$6 a day running @ 1BB/100, 22 days a month by 6 tabling will give you something close to $6000 including FPP value. Don't forget that you can manage your own time and arrange holiday etc. I can't really find many jobs that are able to compete really...
