Default Re: Poker starting age?.

That's only part of the plan.

My intentions for my daughter is for her to be independently wealthy by her 18th birthday, managing a multimillion dollar private trading fund, and/or with a career in diplomacy for an European nation (this JOB is optional). Poker will be hopefully only a passtime for her by then.

My parents intentions for me were to have a career and get a job. While, I believe thay had the best intentions at heart and succeeded with their plans, those were poor choices. I still love them for what they did.

The Polgar sisters (chess) were started in gaming, by their father at the age of 4, and that was before the internet was even a possibility.

I intend to stay ahead of the curve. Poker may not be the best vehicle in a few years anyway. I consider poker, just a means to an end. It's even boring.
