OOT, What is your life situation?
-Age
-Occupation (If poker, please list stakes) -Family? (GF/Wife . . kids) -Would you say you're happy with where you are? I spawn this post b/c I'm 26. Starting to look for a job. Been grinding out micro/low stakes for the past two years. I was working as a floor dealer in a casino. Quit to play poker full-time while finishing up school. The casino paid decent (far more than I think I'll make now going into the real world), I enjoyed the people I worked with, but I just couldn't see myself working in a casino for the rest of my life. Finished a marketing degree 14 months ago. Truthfully, I don't really want to work in marketing, but I don't want to play poker forever either. I'm single, in good shape, but all-around very unhappy with my life to this point. I think I'll be happy once I'm 'on my way' - wife, possibly kids and a steady job, but right now I just can't envision how I'll get to point B. |

You're only 26 afterall. Try to keep your eyes open for good opportunities in all areas of your life and things will work out for the best. |

Re: OOT, What is your life situation?
Age: 23
Occupation: low stakes NL + a BMat that I'm very close to being finished but can't get around to completing. Single Unhappy. I have lost all interest in life. A few things can make me happy in the short term (matter of days) but nothing helps for the longer term. I don't care where I am. I don't care where I am or could be going. Being alive and being dead are approaching the same value. |

-Age
22 -Occupation (If poker, please list stakes) Poker, 10/20 NL(mostly) -Family? (GF/Wife . . kids) Single and living by my own -Would you say you're happy with where you are? Yes I'm very happy with where I am today. I dunno, I dropped out of university almost a year ago because it sucked and all the people sucked. So now I play a few hours poker a week and then do what I want with my time, it's awesome. Like a couple months ago I started dancing salsa for example which is loads of fun. Too bad it's only 1-2 times a week in my town, almost makes me want to move to a bigger city for more salsa :P |
