Default Re: I want to turn pro after college

I'll be the contrarian and say take the job for 1-2 years. During this time save as much as humanly possible for when you turn pro. The only downside is that online poker may not be possible at all after 2 years - well in that case you'd be looking for a job anyway and now you already have one.

If he is going to work as an investment banker working 100 hours a week he won't have time to ever play poker. If he tried working already in a hedge fund and hated it, what makes you think that doing what he hated 100 hours a week is going to be any better?
