I tried it for a month (running a sports service) and it's not for me

Ego74 · Dec 18, 2005

I guess there really is nothing like being "Free"

Started a service a month ago, even set up a webpage, and I've been stressed out and miserable for a month because of it. I went the "honest, monitored route" and I've learned what many of you said when I first considered this, it's a tough biz for a person who is "straight up"

I still have my webpage, which I'm turning into a sports site filled with links to sports news, my opinions and comments on the news (contributions welcome), will post some plays there and here at the rx as well.

Hope to upgrade my my page to a full-blown website and make it a success

Just wanna say a HUGE thanks to my buddies here at the RX for not bashing me for the past month, I know how many of you feel about sports services and touts. :103631605

It's good to be Free

It's tough to go the "honest, monitored route" when you are up against lying scammers who never go anything less than 22-4.

Good luck with your future site :103631605

You know I've thought about that a couple dozen times. Some books have limits but I guess you can just bet at multiple books.

Another factor is the limit of your bankroll. I guess you can build up your bankroll if you're really good though. It's like investing in a business.

agree 100% thats wht the touts are touting because the can not pick winners ....if they could pick winners there would be no need to tout

welcome back to the human race.happy trails

EGO, update your homepage, thanks. I've never been there, by the way EGO's plays were doing really well.

Ego74 · Dec 18, 2005

Thanks for the nice, uplifting words guys

freebie, I don't think I'm allowed to post the link in here, even though my site is just a general sports news site, but I'll post it where people promote their sites :103631605

As far as my new site goes, I'd like to make it a top notch infiormation site for sports fans and bettors, I will be adding content two or three times a day, sports news, my own picks, hot sports rumors, some off the wall stuff, and also links to "top forum posts", ect..

Suggestions are always welcome, and also if people would like to contribute their own articles and/or opinions, picks, ect...

Ego,

Discovering that you have too much credibility and integrity to be a tout is a blessing.

LOL!! That's the truth! tulsa

WildBill · Dec 18, 2005

Truth is 80% or more of the people willing to pay for picks don't really want just good analysis and a winning record. For them gambling isn't fun if someone hasn't hyped them up for their bets. The level-headed people out there generally bet their own picks for mere entertainment or they do the work to be winners on their own.

I run a "service" by conistently posting to the RX Tracker forum.

I like this because when I do well, everyone likes me and when I don't do well, no one gets offended.

And publicly posting my ShortTermInvestments makes me accountable to responsible work product and Unit management.

good to see you "free" ego...

As the case with anything in life, if you would have never tried, you might surely wonder what might have been. This way you will have no regrets and can move forward to the next adventure. Best wishes to you in all your endeavors.

Ego74 · Dec 18, 2005

thanks again for the nice words and encouragement....

been working on the site a good part of the day, but look forward to being "one of the boys" here at the RX :103631605

P.S.: I WANT MY TITLE SHOT AT THE RX BELT!!! WOOOOOOOO!!!!

I tried it for a month (running a sports service) and it's not for me
