How has playing poker improve your life (money not being considered)?
has it helped you mature?
are you you more intelligent, developed new transferable skills, or just better off in any way because of poker?
not considering the money that you made, has playing poker been +EV for you?

i've met much less people than i would have if i had a real job, i've really let my body go, and it's stressed the hell out of me |

It was only after poker that I realized how people whine and complain about way too much. |

taught me about the importance of thought process in making decisions |

+1.
Except I feel more like I'm emotionally numb a lot. "It's just variance". Better self esteem. Got in touch with some cool people. |
