but what ambition is that anyways? making 2k a month?
when i started poker i wanted to make 20/month, i wanted to make a quarter million a year. it was possible back then. it wasn't even hard back then.
i dont think it will be possible to make that 5years from now apart from a very few elite players.
you are too late for the party. most guys from back in the days already moved on. most guys from the present try to get out of poker better sooner than later.
from what you write you seem to be young so either get an education, good college degree and take that route or selfeducate yourself in the internet and open a business or do something else which makes money, there are tons of options.
best of luck to you
90% chance I'll make that? I'll stick to poker, no question about it.
As I said all I need is shelter and food. Not sure why you all guys want that kind of money for :S. Ambition? what for? ambition and all the big money you accumulated will be buried down the ground alongside you. I know 99,99% of the people love money, I'm just a weirdo in this world who doesn't understand why. Is it leisure? no matter the amount you win, money won't ever overcome boredome and loneliness :S. Is it prestige? no one will recall you no matter the amount either :S.
To me it just feels like a present that in this ****ty world plenty full of silly and stupid works, I can find something I love doing. Not only that, but I can freely move abroad and not stay in a place, financial freedom I think you call it...
thanks a lot for that 90% answer, I'll asumme I'll have like a 88% chance of making 5k a months, which would be like being a millionare to me.
enjoy your money and thanks again.
