For me, it's patience, and value shopping.

well ya know we gamble on a daily basis so when we win want to get her pregnant and when lose want to physically dish out a beating.

an emotional roller coaster it seems.

nice.

if you include line/value shopping as cutting coupons we sometimes do that also if coherent which usually no.

I find myself calculating odds a lot

Like at the gym this morning. I knew this guy was trying to bench more than he could. I am just watching him from the treadmill.

I said to myself "No way. +800 he gets that." And he got like half and needed the spotter to put it up.

Control of my emotions.

If I buy a piece of property and it doubles in value I dont get too excited or when the fire marshall walks through a building and whacks me with thousands of dollars of unbudgeted work, I don't freak out.

For me, it's staying grounded when things start going really good in my life.

Instead of thinking I am bulletproof all of a sudden, I take a step back and realize that anything can happen in the future and I can't get too cocky, stay grounded and keep your mind focused.

None.

There is absolutely nothing from the world of sports gambling that you can apply into real life.

The relationship is the other way around, what can you use from real life applied to gambling.

With the latter, you'll generate more ideas that way.

Maybe for you that's the case. I never really remember myself looking for the same product at the cheapest price at Kroger before, I just threw it in the buggy. As the saying goes-"a penny saved is a penny earned"
