Not quite...anybody with hand\eye skills and the ability to dedicate themselves completely? I'd suggest golf over pool. The video mentioned the monetary rewards of being a world champ...not great. Maybe mid level bureaucrat pay. It's definitely a "love of the game" thing.
(edit) They did show Shane well..you could see the pain in his eyes as he remembered his bullied childhood. In another interview he described going back home after one of his US open wins. Took his car to the local car wash to discover one of his former bullies working there. With a smirk, Shane said; "I tipped him five bucks."
