Default Re: Is pro poker right for me? [LONG]

Hey Nomad,

One thing that I have noticed on these type of threads is the great caution the majority of respondents urge with regards to taking a year off. I think that this must be a cultural thing, (as most posters here are from the states).

In Australia it is unusual if somebody doesn't take a year off to travel to europe, or work in london, or do whatever. A lot of kids do it between school and college, others do it after finishing university. I've been doing it full time for over 15 years. And nobody that I know has done it with 25K sitting in the bank, much less the fact of having the opportunity to earn up to 4K a month from wherever you want in the world.

And this is the crux. All you need is a laptop and wireless roaming or a mobile with international roaming or something like that and you could travel and live around the world and still be making your earn. It boggles my mind. It boggles my mind that you're even hesitating about this.

I'd just do it, bro.
