[ QUOTE ]
Where did someone say they could make millions trading?

Investing your money for the future when you may or may not still want to play poker is absolutley a good plan. Nobody here is claiming to be the next Peter Lynch, but even if youre just investing in index funds, its a good idea to invest in something.

Obviously I agree 100% in investing money. The thing that worries me is the posters who say, not just in this thread but in all these types of threads outside the fnance forum, their (backup) plan after poker is to invest their own money. That really isn't a career and isn't going to generate wealth on its own.

I just read through the thread quickly, but I am pretty sure at least some posters are talking about being "professional" investors.
