Is a professional climber someone who makes money from climbing?

Or is it someone who represents the climbing community without pecuniary gain but does so in a manner marked by professionalism?

Or is it something else entirely? Discuss, citing specific examples from the text.

 "I choose .... business ethics."

In other news, my cast is off and I am 95% rehabbed and now just need to lose 8 pounds and gain some cardio back in order to reach my prior level of fitness.

Also, I have a 2020 Z4 green and a 2020 C4 red up for grabs. If you're interested, text the goteline at 719-357-8755 and we can have a friendly haggle. $45ish each, shipped with biners.

It is someone who climbs in professional business attire.
