It amazes me how anti-sports betting the general public is. I'm not talking about anything other than sports betting. I have many family members & friends who view sports betting as a degenerate activity. I've been doing this since college (12 years all together now)...since I've gotten my shit straight and learned the game, the last 4-5 have been very profitable, yet I really can't share my joy with anyone other than myself, ok people like you guys too on message boards! I don't even like talking about it....it's like we are some nazi underground organization.
I have some "square " friends that gamble and they do the same dumb shit year in and year out and lose all the time, yet I am the fool b/c I bet so much or so often....it really is unreal. The others who dont gamble...forget about it! They all have a freaking story too......"I knew a guy who lost his house and his car over that stuff!" It really is ridiculous. Yet these same neophite hypocritical asshles play the lottery, play poker, buy those stupid ass scratch off lottery tickets, play bingo, and some even bet horses or dogs, but gamble on sports????? Gees...your looked down upon for life!
It has gotten to the point now that I don't even look at it at as gambling. I like to call it "Sports Investing." Hell, it applies the same basic principles as the stock market anyway for the most part. And above all else, it has been profitable to me! I just dont talk about it to anyone anymore win or lose....just easier that way. It is truly a different world we all live in though.......a world very deep underground it seems.
