How much $ per day for you to turn pro?

Guys, I'm 21 with zero expenses. I've been playing a year online, and I am a consistent winner. The past few months I have been making around $15-20/hr, and that figure has been increasing steadily. I have friends who live on their own who go out frequently, spend all their spare $$ on booze, etc, and they live off minimum wage ($7.45CDN)!!

Am I stupid to think I can move out and live off online poker? I play 3/6. My rent + food + expenses should only come out to 700-900 / month, if I live cheap. I plan on moving out in February with about 6-7K for startup (bankroll, rent, food, new computer). All comments appreciated

You will have a hard time growing your bankroll if you move out now I think because most of your profit will go for your expense and it will be difficult to save. It dont mean you will not suceed, but it will be harder. I have some friends who did it in a situation like you, one of them did fine, the other one almost got broke two times and had a hard time. Now he is doing fine, but it took more than a year before he could really grow a solid bankroll and dont have to be always worried about money.
