Thoughts on ZJ's post

For what it's worth I agree with everything Slickpoppa had to say and think ZJ is a lazy, socially inept, egotistical little douche who is going to have a VERY hard time making it in the real world.

You forgot to mention that he probably doesn't take his vitamins and say his prayers at night like all the other little Hulkamaniacs.

Yeah, Justin's a lazy bum with poker pipe dreams that won't materialize and aren't worth following at his age.

Oh, btw, he's at the final table on the EPT.

I never said anything about his ability to succeed in poker. I merely questioned his ability to succeed in areas outside of poker after having dropped out of college.

This thread could be a nomination for most entertaining thread of the year.

(to no one in particular) Of all the different people I associate with in life it amazes me that this site is the one place that you can get almost ridiculed by strangers for having a college education and a 9 to 5 job. I hated college, what 19 year old didnt. Couldnt stand tests, lectures, or any of it. I did it though because I had the vision to see the value it would have many years down the road. I understand it's not for everyone, but you went your own direction, show some respect for the rest of us in doing the same.

Zee - you seem like an intelligent, nice guy. Good luck to you in whatever you do. I sincerely hope the path you chose will lead you in 20 years to the level of success I found in the path I chose, financially and otherwise.

I met Justin in Deauville, he mentioned this thread. Saying he should stay in college is like saying Wayne Rooney should go back to school and pass his GCSE's. Dumb.

Could the OP have picked a worse example of why going pro at a young age is a bad idea?
