I want an apartment in the center of my city, but I need $200,000 there, so we play and go towards our goal!

Land investments for my kids in Southern Africa. I already own land in 5 African countries for my kids that are without taxes.

I would buy a Bitcoin for it and wait until it has a price of $1,000,000.

depends on the value: 10k would buy a motorcycle, 100k a house, + 1 million would invest and live on passive income

You can spend it aimlessly, but how to bring benefit is another matter.It is very difficult for an ordinary person to concentrate on such an amount, so such winnings are not beneficial.True happiness lies in being able to enjoy the little things, to find unusual moments in the daily routine.Personally, I would quit poker and enjoy life, nature, traveling, fishing.
It sounds like you're reflecting on how to find meaning and fulfillment beyond material gains or financial windfalls. The idea of quitting poker and focusing on life's simple joys—nature, travel, fishing, and appreciating daily routines—is a powerful reminder that happiness often comes from intangible experiences rather than wealth.

I would certainly reinvest this part somewhere, in cryptocurrency.

With $100,000 I would pay off my debts, buy another house, make some treats for my family and invest around 20,000 in cryptocurrencies.

Hello Poker Fans,

I would be forced to invest it, since $100,000 does not clear all my debts! That type of money would definitely get me to play $109 MTT buy-ins regularly and would mark the beginning of wonderful chances at the poker table.

The tough part might be to keep my wife away from it. My last EURO 600 withdrawal from pokerstars went into buying stuff for the home. Fingers crossed that she sees reason in keeping a poker bankroll to move up in stakes and win more money :D

I can only hope that this will eventually come to pass and is not just a hypothetical situation!

This does bring up a good question - how much does a professional poker player pay self?

Any advice there?

See you at the tables.

I’d save a good portion, invest wisely, and set aside some to enjoy—maybe a trip or a special treat. Balancing smart money management with fun is key.

If I ever win a hundred thousand dollars from poker, I’ll pay the taxes and use the rest to grow it through poker.

If a big win was associated with winning millions of dollars, I'd travel to Hawaii and learn to surf there. I'd buy a yacht and sail around the world celebrating.
