Let's assume that you are 100% correct, then my comment would change to this.
Would you not be better off framing the scenario as a straight career choice as opposed to bringing marriage into it ?
One could have simply stated the whole thing as to how to determine if you have the goods to become a professional gambler.
I'm not saying that it was a bad article. I'm just saying that it could have been clearer as to it's objectives. Regards

That's true, Albert. But Dancer also didn't mention asking if the boyfriend had a record of abuse, or tax evasion, or ate like a pig. Dancer didn't ask if the suitor had cat allergies, or backlogged dental work, or a known history of belching in public.
The scope of the column was clearly how Dancer would go about determining whether the suitor was likely to turn out to be a successful professional gambler, capable of supporting a family. Nothing more, nothing less.

Whether you set your own hours or not is one thing, and i agree that you go and you play when the best opportunities present themselves. I just found it strange that in a scenario where marriage is being contemplated that these sort of matters would be significant, yet in the article they weren't even considered.
