Any CFAs willing to give advice out there?

I just found out I passed Level III. I would like to get the charter, but I am 9 months shy on work experience (and not doing anything right now that qualifies). I was thinking of using poker as qualifying experience. It technically fits the definition (use of statistical information for making investment decisions). I would like to talk to a charterholder about this first though? Any help would be appreciated.

I'm pretty sure no matter how you twist it, Poker's not going to fly. Start looking for a new job to use that shiny new (almost) CFA.

If you are anywhere out west, let me know I might be able to help...
