If you are not going to become pro or make a living from poker it doesn't make sense, invest that time in something else, such as family

Its not important at all, unless you want to win.

Ratt, said it best "what you give is what you get" the more you put into it the better you will be.

Studying poker is very important if you want to become a better and more consistent player. It helps you understand strategy, avoid common mistakes, and make better decisions in difficult situations. Even a small amount of regular study can have a big impact on your results.

This quote from "Daily Dose of GTO" says it all:

"Poker is a game of small edges. Many advanced concepts take a lot of effort to learn and offer only small edges in exchange for their mastery."​

Through study, you will learn to read what hands the "villain" might have.

How important is it to improve your game? If it’s important then find the time to study. If it’s not important and you’re just playing for fun, then don’t study and have fun. I’ve had a home game going now for 20 years, no one there has ever studied the game. They are there to have fun and be social and it’s a good time. So yeah it all depends on your goals. Good luck!
