If you are smart enough to play for a living, you are probably smart enough to get a computer science or some type of engineering degree. Spend the next 4 years doing this. There is a lot more money in this than there is in poker. Most of the people who are good enough to make a decent living playing poker are probably good enough to make a decenter living doing something else.
