Default Re: Job That Couples Well w/ Online Poker On The Side?

How the hell can anyone recommend being an office drone?

It's a craptacular life.

It's not a life. It's a job.

Very important distinction. I work with many people who have trouble separating the two. They are generally unhappy...

If you have a reasonable office job that doesn't take up too much time or energy, this can pay your bills while looking respectable to the world and allowing you to pursue other interests in your spare time (e.g., poker).

It's not for everyone, but that is pretty much what OP was asking for.

Had he asked for inspiring, meaningful, satisfying, life affirming work, office drone wouldn't be such a good option... In that case, I would suggest he go to grad school, get Ph.D.'s in physics and math, and solve the problem of quantum gravity.
