Re: Thoughts about poker and success (mainly for college students)
[ QUOTE ]
however, i do think that playing poker now is still worthwhile. because of the poker boom, there are just so many people basically giving away their money. when else in life can you make a few hundred dollars sitting in your room, whenever you feel like it? also there are so many students working long hours for $10-15 dollars an hour. we should feel lucky we can make what we do with the hassles of a schedule and commute and dealing with customers.

Yeah-- I wasnt saying poker didnt have its place. I've made more money playing a 'game' as my job while taking classes than I did while having a relitively well-paying internship every other semester while not taking classes. Poker is very very very part time for me, and the internship was 40-50 hrs a week. Poker is a good thing. Poker consuming a college kids life is a very bad thing.
