Ed Miller's Going Pro II

[crunchy1]

In this article Ed suggests that a player who is going to begin playing professionally should do so with 3 months worth of expenses in savings. I think this number is low and should probably be closer to 6 months or more. I think this is even more true in today's poor economy with the length of time it can take to potentially acquire new employment if poker doesn't work out.

Maybe some of you, or even Ed himself, could comment on this.
