Stu makes a good point about students getting jobs.  College is painfully expensive and EVERYBODY is going.  I think it is important to have that education, but it's getting very difficult for students to pay back those huge loans they end up leaving school with.

Now let's take those huge loans and give them $10k less per year to live on.  They still have to pay back the huge sums they borrowed to pay for school, but they have $10k less to live on.

College is an investment.  Unfortunately the return on that investment is getting worse and worse.  I know kids who have graduated only to not be able to find work.  So it's a pretty tough investment.

As far as living on $20k/year... don't.  You don't want to do that.  If you want to go pro strive for maximum bankroll separation and bank as much in living costs as you can before you go.  If going pro ever entered my mind, I would want at least $20k for living expenses for 6 months and like $15k in the roll.
