In 1 of Daniel's articles he listed a historical quote said by someone famous. I think it was a president or other historical figure. I can't remember the quote or the article for which it was listed in. Can someone help me out please?

That's after taxes.Thank you for the well wishes all.

Thanks for all the replies.I checked out health insurance and I can keep the current benefits I already have. I just have to pay $450 a month.Without a doubt I have to start keeping records/stats. I am confident in my poker ability, but I agree stats is very important. Important for the tax man as well as seeing how well I actually do :)Yes I am scared to make this leap. With all new life changes comes nervousness. I do not think it will be hard for me to get another job if worse came to worse. Right now I think the most important thing for me is getting a degree which I regret never do

I play mostly limit omaha hi/lo.I have been a consistant winner for years. With that said I am still very scared of this big move.I never kept records. I am unsure of my hourly rate at say 10/20. I just know that I win more than I lose. I took a risk and played 75/150 for a while now and came ahead about $50k. I am banking this money now though. I do not want to risk losing it at 75/150 or higher so I will take $6k and play 10/20 or so.

Hi, I've been a long time lurker and have just registered.I recently won about $50,000 playing 75/150 ohl. I have a decent paying job, but I absolutly hate it. I decided to quit my job. My plan is to go back to school and play poker to make ends meet. I have a condo mortgage and car payments. My credit cards are all paid off. I do not have a wife or kids. I am planning to keep about $50,000 in my savings/checking account and $6,000 online for poker. Do you think it is a bad idea for me to live like this? I will play 10/20 limit and tournies online. Do you think it will be too hard to
