    30 year old millionaire but traded my time for money

    Thanks a lot for this post yes I think you are right in regard to needing to find a new challenge etc. I know this sounds weird and I would normally call bullshit on people who say exactly what I am about to say but I think one of the reasons I dislike poker is that it is of no value to anyone...

    30 year old millionaire but traded my time for money

    Thanks empireflippers. I wish I read this post 5 years ago as I have made some terrible mistakes in handling my money and should have a lot more saved given my total earnings from poker. However, the past is the past and as long as I learn from it that is the main thing :) I am trying to be...

    30 year old millionaire but traded my time for money

    Thanks RazorCut this is great advice. I have been playing part time for 4 years and professionally for 5.5 years so nearly 10 years total. I imagine will be hard to find a business to work on that runs on very few employees that can work remotely and does not need a fixed geographical location...

    30 year old millionaire but traded my time for money

    MJ!! Thank you so much for reading my post and responding. I am very thankful for your books I have read both of them multiple times. You are absolutely right about my job feeling like a dentist/doctor/lawyer type who hates it. Your response here means so much to me because I have zero real...

    Its highly variable because it depends on where the action is on the day but I could outlay anywhere from 3k-30k per 10 hour session.

    30 year old millionaire but traded my time for money

    Hi lowtek, You make a very fair argument. If I was to change gears and start at the bottom in a new area like business I would downgrade my lifestyle to 50k usd a year (probably at around 80k now) and hopefully not get owned by the market. The only thing is I would hate to look back in 30...

    30 year old millionaire but traded my time for money

    Hi 404profound, I have thought about doing that and it makes a lot of sense and would leverage my area of expertise, the only issues I see doing it are: - The hours spent making and marketing the course may not add up to more than what I would make simply playing poker on my own (Although this...

    30 year old millionaire but traded my time for money

    Thanks Envision I really appreciate your reply. I am most likely going to follow your advice because it really is the safest way to buy true financial freedom but part of me just does not enjoy the process any more, there is a feeling of lack from just taking money as opposed to adding value...

    30 year old millionaire but traded my time for money

    Hi everyone, I managed to save 1.2 million USD from playing online poker and can still earn around 20-30k USD per month playing but I no longer enjoy the game and also don't like trading my time for money. I am a natural extrovert and dislike having spent so many years in front of computer...
