Sports betting

With the cost of goods increasing such as food, petrol, alcohol, clothes
and other great things most of us need to make a quick buck to fund our
habits. Many people find making a quick buck from buying shares or even
running a one off clubbing event and try to live off it weekly.

For me its sports betting. As most of you all know that I'm a mad sports
fan, basically love all kinds of sport that I even got my own sports
blog which I haven't touched in a while. I tend to put some money on
sports betting nearly every week and when there is a big sporting event
like the state of origin or the euro soccer 08.

How it started for me was when I started uni a few years ago and was
working part time that I wasn't getting paid enough to save up for a
car, as I read about sports every day, I decided to put a couple of
dollar bets for the weekend for the league and afl and usually I'd put
5-6 winners per bet and the aim is the get all of them right. If you had
one wrong and the rest right you don't win anything which I have had
every now and then. My one dollar bet would win me 40 bucks or so per
bet. Pretty good profit I must say.

Recently I have won more than I have invested over the years which has
been pretty good for me as the weekly pay packet is clearly not enough
to survive on due to some debts I have incurred and the need to pay them
off is now a must.

There have been times where I have said to a friend that this team or
person will win and never put any money on it and they end up winning
which results of me bragging that I picked it but never betted on
it.there is a saying for that

"Put your money where your mouth is"
