Anyone grinding 6-8 hours a day multi-tabling is treating it like a job as it's beyond a hobby at that point. Whether they consider it job/work or not doesn't much matter you're keeping job/work hours. How many in this forum do that I have no idea. Looking at the number of players playing on every site daily a lot are treating poker like a job.

Agree we all have different views. I like living, enjoying life, having a healthy job/work place and well I like earning money easy as I can. Poker isn't easy money regardless of what most believe and not a great way to make a living for the majority. Online is hard and you gotta worry about being cheated at the stakes you need to play to make a living. Live poker isn't much better although 1/2, 1/3 and 2/5 are easier then playing online. Putting up with a table of degenerates, the 2-3 assholes you get at every table and all the smelly guys who can't shower isn't a joyful place to work and make money either. To each their own thou.

I'm 51 years old and getting close to retirement already. 1m puts me there. Simple fact as most the men in my family don't live to be 90 years old. At best I got 20-25 good years left where I'll still be pretty healthy and capable after that I don't or won't need much money as I won't be sitting around suffering in pain or in hospital till the end either. So 1m doesn't have to go far for me.

If I was in my 20's my attitude, opinion and outlook would obviously be a lot different and 1m wouldn't even come close.

Cheers!!!
