I came up with this idea recently, Im bored of working in my industry.
I'm not likely to get very rich playing poker without winning a major tournament.
Sales/marketing is definately like poker in my oppinion, if you go into any kind of business where you can make your own money, like in poker.
You can develop skills rather than watching poker tutorials watch world class businessmen giving presentations develop your own CV keep working improving your sales skills.
Go into one job get good there start at intermediate level call centre/sales,
(you can ALWAYS exagerate you CV)
as long as you have two references you can say what you like on your CV... just make sure you learn everything you need too to back this up...
once you get good at the stake your playing at... this could be outbound telesales.
You move up, you apply for better jobs, you keep working hard to improve your skills so you can compete at that level...
and before you know it your on a 30k a year salary with commission on top of that...
and if you continue to keep learning and cutting leaks by not wasting money like in poker... You bankroll continues to grow...
I honestly believe you can earn the same amount of money in the game of life. with no risk of losing anything... And it can be enjoyable.
If you continue to improve your skills and bankroll the next thing you can be looking at, is opening your own company, getting investors or sponsors (as you can in poker) backers and sponsors,
and your well on your way to having 100K in the bank and earning 4k a month NET or more... this apply's to everyone not just the 10% of poker players that become great at the game
