I play cause it is a hobby. yes I want to make money when I play, but I make a hell of a lot more money in my real job then I do at poker. actually based on the stats I see many of the higher stakes players post, I make more money then that as well. So if I wanted to make more cash I can just moonlight an extra shift not play poker.
But I do want to get better, and I do want to move up in Limits cause I enjoy getting better at things, my job, pool, sex  , poker, and so forth.

Well said. I can't believe how narrow minded some people are.
Everybody wants to make money because it's the point of the game, and how it is scored. You can want to win the game without taking it so seriously.
Would you say the same thing about monopoly? What if monopoly was played for money? What about a game like chess being played for money?
