I don't think that earning my crust by something as risky as online poker is particularly sensible or sustainable. You may make £30k on year, but end up with £300k debt the next.
Not true. Depends what stakes you play and how greedy you are.
If you play 5nl for super mega hands. you can easily make £100-200 a day.
These people are known as grinders they have no life. play long hours etc.
I believe its what you do with the money. ie invest into property or starting up a business etc.

Accountancy(trainee) (Cipfa-) public sector

I didn't really want to do cipfa but with so much competition for big 4, I thought to get some experience under my belt.
I'm saving now for Cima, I am either going to pay for it myself or apply for a funding through a private sector firm.
I really want to be in private sector though.
I have a start up side project in wireless hotspots like sputnik/fon.
What you do with money is true whatever the source.
I was referring to the uncertainty of gambling as an occupation, and no amount of justification will convince me that it is a viable career choice for the majority of people.

why do you not go into private practice/industry and do the ACA or ACCA, most firms will fund it for you. You don't need the big4.

but that's why you gamble small and leave yourself a healthy buffer so that you can always come back.
