Message: [QUOTE="Pokerpoet2, post: 6004907, member: 430261"] Poker gives so much to many people, Some dream of being rich and playing in the World Series,Some actually attain their dreams, But for me riches and fame are further from my mind. Yes I used to dream of picking up trophy after trophy, but riches was always far from my mind, and as I get older and I suppose a little wiser dreams tend to fade away and you are left with reality. My reality is that I already have a loving Family so could not be any richer, so I play for the Social Interaction, and the stimulating Conversation at live events, and the pure joy of the game. Poker does not have to be about MONEY! Sure it's nice to win money, even nicer when it is free money from Free-rolls, but it is more than that, I play for the WIN! The thrill in being the best in any game is far more important than Money. I played many games when I was a kid, football, cricket, tennis, rugby and even board games like Cluedo (clue is the USA) Monopoly, Totopoly, Chess, Risk, and many many more games, But it was never for Money, only the WIN! All I here from people on Cardschat is "can I make a living from Poker?" or "Can I give up my Day job for Poker?" or "Can I have a 2nd income from Poker?" MONEY, MONEY, MONEY, Sure you can if you WORK HARD at it, anything is possible, but remember two words I have said already WORK HARD! Poker stops being fun and becomes your vocation, your job, your only means of support, and when that happens it becomes boring, dull, and repetitive, just like any job. Live your life, Live for your dreams, but do not lose reality, and that is many people are just not good enough to make the top and a fortune from Poker, Even the top Professionals have another Income from Investments, property and many other business ventures, and they will tell you it was never easy. Keep Poker Fun and Remember--- When the fun Stops, STOP! [/QUOTE]
