HEY Y'ALL
90 YEAR OLD HERE. I WANT TO BECOME A CHESS PLAYER PROFESSIONALLY AND PUT MY KIDS THROUGH COLLEGE (THEY'RE BOTH 70). I THOUGHT MAYBE IF I COMPETE PROFESSIONALLY I COULD DO IT AND BE A GRANDMASTER. BUT IS 90 YEARS OLD TOO OLD TO CONSIDER BECOMING A PROFESSIONAL? THOUGHTS?
No you can do it in about a week of hard work.
Don't listen to the nay-sayers.

More questions less time to devote to chess…But I guess it’s somebody’s joke..
If you gotta sit a lot at that age might as well play chess so why not go pro?
