But poker is different, it is much harder to have a support network poker, it seems it is a very individualistic pursuit. It also seem to be very consuming. I myself am 22 and play quite alot? Am I wasting the prime of my life? Do others ask the same questions?

Agreed. I am not satisfied with my life at all. I have no concept of the value of money and since my girlfriend dumped me I really don't have anything that means anything to me anymore. Plan is to go back to grad school and be a teacher as it seems like a meaningful/enjoyable job where you don't have to do that much actual work. The one thing that I have appreciated about my poker career (currently 22...3 years as a full/part time pro... graduated college 1.5 years ago) is that it has taught me that money alone is not going to make me happy.
