Re: The Truth About Playing Poker For a Living
[ QUOTE ]
Do I make charitable contributions? No.
Do I have a nice bunch of friends? No.
Am I good to my family? No.
Is there anything noble about playing poker? From my point of view, yes.
Do I read books? Yes
Enjoy Art? No
Go out in the world? Yes
Is there anything really noble about 99.9% of the world. Yes, I feel that you are confusing the world with people, but the world itself is far more important than the things people do.
I am not "pro," but if I was I certainly wouldn't care about society and making contributions to it. I mean, do we really even need most of the crap that is being produced an consumed on a daily basis? Hell, we don't even need cars or roads or airplanes or anything.
Fuk progress.
We're progressing towards what?
I'm going to die one day and I'm not gonna spend my life working forty hours a week. I don't care what kind of "no good [censored]" this makes me in the eyes of blue collar wage slaves.
I have nothing with the outcast and the unfit; let them die in their misery.
