Re: What will make you happy?
Very interesting thread.
I've been playing poker for a living for around 18 months and it really can be a sick emotional rollercoaster.. I find it really important to keep as active as possible as you can become worryingly hermitic. It's very easy to lose touch with people- including yourself in some ways.
On balance though I think the freedom the lifestyle affords makes up for the occasional periods of social isolation. As for happiness in the long term? I think many of the previous posters have been spot on but I do think it's a very individual mindset.
Gl to us all!
