Sorry but this 'same thread' has pushed me.  Don't mean to offend but...

Why in the HELL would you want to do that?!?!  Instead of asking if you can, you really need to ask, why would you want to.  If you are at the 25NL stage you are not good enough to be 'pro'.  Sorry, you are not.  That does not mean you can't cover your expenses blah blah, but why would you do that to yourself?  Personally, I would rather work--you KNOW there will be a paycheck then, and then play to get better.  If you think playing 25NL to make 2K a month is NOT work, you have not done it and you're being a bit delusional.  As many have pointed out, that is a ton of hours and where poker is fun, talk to many of the old grinders--it can become work.

IMO, hone your game and build a BR up to where you can play at a decent level to obtain a decent return.  Keep your day job until you build a HUGE nut that a swing does not bother you and move up a few levels so you don't end up gouging your eyes out staring at a monitor for 10+ hours a day.

Putting in 60+ hours a week on the computer is still putting in 60+ hours a week of work.  Plan, learn, get better.  Move up in stakes and work when you want and play longer when the game is juicy.  Grinding at such a low level is a complete waste of talent.  Learn the game, and beat it so you can enjoy the things you want to do and are not forced into just eeking out an existence.

Sorry for the rant.  Best of luck.
Cheers
