Quitting my crap job to grind 2/5+ live??

I'm in a similar boat & same age and position as you (done w/college debating what to do next), so I like this thread and find it interesting. Very, very tough call. I'd say go for it though, as you'll regret not doing it later. I am also curious about win rates and such, as I havent played enough hours to know. But, I've seen soft enough 1/2 games (which wont make a living, but 2-300 max in ac/fw/ts can be soft as hell) and i'd say go with 10-20 limit, 15-30 limit, and 2-5 NL and just travel around or camp out in la so you can go to san diego and vegas at times too...that would be ideal for me, live in ac/south jersey for summer, and out west winter and hit a bunch of rooms...but, as people said, a LOT different playing for rent money than fun, whole outlook changes, maybe make some folds you shouldnt or try to press to get even/ahead when you know you're beat, I have to believe it takes a mental toll...Good luck, curious how you do since I was going to post a similar topic thread
