I'd have to say I find the arguments that poker and/or day-trading are somehow "useful" very very thin. I don't think any of those are useful. My point is I don't think slaving away for 30 years at IBM is any more useful.

Oh yeah, and since I found poker, I no longer indirectly support the Columbian cartels. [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img] So that's somewhat useful right?
