Stock trading is another "job" that works well with poker playing.

Though you should preferably be bankrolled by someone else. Managing mutual funds is a gold mine. You'll get big bonuses for doing only slightly worse than picking stocks out of a hat. (Some 90% of all managed mutual funds do worse than index! Yet managing a mutual fund is incredibly well paid.)

Stress levels are, ahem, somewhat high though. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

I teach high school - its perfect. Lots of time off.
Summers to play full time. You could take some extra classes to get your teachers license and teach physics or math

I have been dating a high school math teacher for a little while. I can say that she works much harder than I would have guessed. She seems to be grading papers or prepping lessons for hours each night.

I agree with your need to spend time with people. I have been playing full time online for 2 years now and at first my social circle almost went away. I try to spend 1 night a week now volunteering somewhere. It is nice to actually spend some time with other adults.

if you don't care about salary, then volunteer somewhere. a hospital, a homeless shelter, a resource center for kids, wherever.

obviously socially respectable, and you may even feel better better about yourself

Are you the person who always posts 'sub bro' on letsrun.com whenever I post?

I'm very slow right now. Believe me, if I was fast enough I'd be training 'full-time' for the Olympics while playing poker to support myself.

The answer to that is obvious.
Be a substitute teacher. They can practically pick their own hours.

I already am a substitute teacher. It's not particularly socially acceptable to be in your 20s with a degree from a decent school and substitute teach.
