Re: poker pro - hardest job there is?
[ QUOTE ]
I used to think this. Then I tried it a couple times. I quickly found there are a few innate prerequisites that I took for granted. Some people don't have enough emotional control/tilt too hard to ever win consistently. Some people have no motivation to study/work on their game. Certain personality types are simply unable to succeed in poker

This actually is true. When I say anybody I should really limit it to people of average or better intelligence who have good emotional control. I think that covers most of mainstream society and that you can quickly judge if someone has those qualities simply by looking at their achievements to date.
