Giving up the job to play pro?

accounting...it's what i did and seemed pretty easy...respectable and good job prospects.

I got a finance degree, and in the end, it really doesn't mean too much. Don't get me wrong, I'm happy I got the degree, it's just not a really specific field.

If I could do it over again, I would get a degree in Real Estate. You would have a four year degree, as well as a real estate license, which is a great thing to have if you are going to play poker for a living.

You might be shocked at how much money you can make at your "side business" of Real Estate. And it's the type of job that you can do anywhere you want.

Nothing in our politically correct universities is demanding anymore. You could take womyn's studies so you could learn to blame everything from bad beats to dandruff on men.
