RE: [ba-poker] Story from SFGate

["Bill Chen" <wchen_8369(deleted the rest)>]

I was pretty serious about many of us having a hard time maintaining
relationships, even for those outside the poker world.  As for the
second part, unfortunately I have also met many people who are driven
and successful in their careers who have unhappy marriages.  Some it
seems spend 60-70 hours in the office to avoid going home.   

I certainly don't think it's a healthy way to live, and believe general
happiness is correlated to productivity.
