Hey Enrique. Congrats on planning a poker path and taking the steps to achieve financial independence. I kind of understand wanting to get loved ones behind you in a positive manner. There's nothing like a good support group, just like the CC community. I would like to point out that this is ultimately up to you and you're the one who's going to be making the decisions and grinding it out for your livelihood, so make sure it's what you really want to do.
As far as convincing anyone other than a poker player that what we're doing is not gambling, good luck. Every time 2 or more players move all-in before the river it's gambling. Investing in a company through a broker or some sort of cyber-trading is gambling, too. If you peel back enough layers everything we're doing is a gamble. Using accumulated knowledge to make a calculated decision for monetary gain is an investment. In other words, using your poker skills to make a living makes you an investor. So, if you ever have to justify playing poker for a living just say you're a mono-management financial advisor.
