The value of money question is interesting and relevant to the initial question.
Because I am still young, with enough money, no loans, kids, morgage, to worry about I get stressed about winning and losing money at poker, even though it makes 0% difference to my life. I live cheaply and dont spend lots of money, yet in a poker sense (and to an extent in life) I value success in terms of money, even if I dont spend it. Dunno if this is a healthy way to look on money, and I guess as I get older and more responsibilities I will come to value money more. My brain seems to keep poker money and real life money seperate, so when im stressing about poker money it is more about winning and losing rather than real life monetary concerns... if that makes any sense
