Default Re: Poker starting age?.

Yes how silly of me clearly it is better to have no advanced education than to have one. I forgot all of the things that having a degree and learning prevents one from doing.


It's a closer call than you might think.

You sacrifice a large percentage of your life doing it, so it's a far more individual choice than a clearly better one.

These days you can pretty much learn anything you want to either online or from books, and if you have no desire to work for other people (rendering the piece of paper that says you're clever useless), then there really isn't anything to be gained from further education.

I'm not saying this approach is right for many people, but it is far from as obvious as you make out.
