I read an article in Chess Life discussed how all the russian players
that immigrated to the US during the 70s and 80s changed tournaments
and how they play chess to make a living.

I think that this sounds really interesting and the benefits are
wonderful. I would just have to play a tournament each weekend with
either a 2-day or 3-day schedule and then I also get Monday through
Thursday off. This has got to be one of the most easy and wonderful
jobs out there. I don't understand why in the article it stated that a
psychologist would question Fedorowicz after he said that he wanted to
be a chess professional. Getting Monday through Thursday off each week
sounds awesome!!!

How high of a rating would I need to accomplish this? Can anyone
recommend some books to read? And what are the typical salary
expectiations for a US chess professionaL?


Thanks.
