Income from playing poker?
What income from playing poker would be acceptable for you (the real amount), so that you no longer had to work for someone else? Enter the amount and country of residence.
P.s. Under the condition that you earn at least this amount each month.

I want an income of two thousand dollars a month. It would be great to have an income of that value or greater. Oh yes. Here where I live two thousand would give six thousand of my currency and would greatly improve my financial life.

In Russia, you need at least $ 1,000 a month to not work anywhere else. But the problem is that poker does not guarantee money to anyone. Even a strong player can not be sure that he will have this money always, every month. This is a feature of poker. But if you have more - you just need to save some money for such a case. But still you do not have any social guarantees. No one will pay for your sick day, no one will pay for the leave, no one will pay a pension. Poker - you yourself are worried about your future. You can achieve a lot, but you can be on the street, less than nothing.

I'm in canada and I would need at least $2000 US to make it worth while. Which is about $2700 Canadian. If I really wanted though I could make $1500 work, but things would be tight. I'm a long ways from that though

Speaking of leaving work, I believe that at least 2000 dollars to be quiet. At the moment I am getting 300 dollars per month, still have to work to grow the bankroll, increase the bets and make it possible.

I would say $3000 per month would be acceptable, I am no where close to this as of now, and still play only on micro-stakes...

Many thanks to all for replies! Friends, I just wanted to have an idea of the average amount of money you need to live. It's crazy to quit work and live poker. But at the same time life gives a very good chance to have additional income without investing a penny. Treat poker as an additional earnings.
