Heart/Passion

Richard...You're right that my passion for the game is super strong, and has been since I was introduced to the game at age 18, by Jack White. Little did I know that 23 years later I would take over his national touring gig being a pool entertainer. That said, I did a lot of things between 18 and 40 that prepared me to do what I do now. Getting a college education was one of those things. I do love teaching, but it's the college gigs and corporate gigs that really drive the piggy bank...and I've been doing this for more than 20 years! Your desire and drive to play pro speed in a short amount of time are admirable, even if something of a pipe dream. Certainly follow your dream...but back it up with an educaton and a job that will provide a current life and a future life for yourself. :thumbup:

Some of the best advice Mr. Lee has ever given.

There is not much of a living paying 'Pro Pool' at the current time unless one is in the top 5 or so & I do not see that changing anytime soon.

I have also seen some good pros or some very good near pros that do not seem to be living a very good life.

As in most things.... Balance is usually of some importance & it usually is good to have a fall back plan just in case, even if one is totally confident in the first plan's success. As they say, crap happens, & plans can be toppled by unforeseen circumstance.

Best Wishes, Good Luck, & Shoot Well.
 

P.S. "This" is a response and the only person "interrupting" you is YOU! All you have shown me is that you prefer to spend your time on here talking about what you're going to do rather than getting off your butt and doing it.
