Love this question
I have played online and live for many years now. I am now retired. My past work involved huge budgets, data mining, statistics, and planning.
Now that I am retired, poker has become more important. It keeps my skills up. Math, statistics, data mining, planning and studying more. So, you see it is very important and fun. It keeps my skills alive, it gives me a little money on the side (Christmas was several hundred this year), it keeps my mind active and it is FUN!!!
When I discovered CardsChat, it helped open the world up even more for me. Most important thing I was missing with other sites was the friendship and communication. It brings it all into focus and makes my "old" world more enjoyable and my poker world more challenging.I am very thankful as those who run CC know.
I look at how money has destroyed celebrity and lottery winners' lives. Yes, I have won some, but never look to get rich. If I happen to be one of the lucky, skilled ones that one day, somehow, I find my way into the wsop or another major event, I really do not know how I would handle the shock and miracle of it all.
Answering the question, to become wealthy at the most loved thing I do during my day, would be one of the biggest dreams of my life, but it is just a dreamy goal. I play to keep my skill set up, my mind active, a little Christmas money, and most important....the FRIENDSHIP.
Thank you for asking.
