I'm a software developer for the government. 7 hour low stress work day with lots of time to read 2+2 etc. Much better for poker playing than the 4 years I put in with an internet startup before this. I wouldn't necessarily recommend a government job right after graduation though as a career in the government can be somewhat uninspiring (depending on your field) and it can be tricky to pick up more interesting private sector jobs with nothing but gvnmt work on your resume. I'm just on an 18 month contract...

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]

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.
