We're talking a poker career though, where you can also LOSE money in your job. Most people get regular paychecks, only in poker can your income suddenly turn negative for awhile. Obviously if you worked some cushy desk job whereby you are paid 10k/month then you are living well above the average American lifestyle. But in order to keep that 50k in your bank account year round you need to be able to tolerate huge losses as well, hence the need for a 10k income to balance it all out. Dont forget, your living expenses will continue to reduce your bankroll whether you win or not.
