    Gambling and drugs..

    I decided to do some mushrooms after watching Alabama lose the football game (in other words i lost a good chunk of cash... or numbers in a bank account really) and decided that gambling is not for me. Its fun as **** to think about, and we all have our ideas, but in the end its "a race to break even again" as someone on this forum eloquently described.

    P.s. Everyone should take have a "trip" like experience it really is eye opening.

    P.p.s. Im picking the BUFFALO BILLS to get their first win tomorrow over the shitty Bears! for whatever thats worth.. BOL!

    I'm making cash in both NBA and NCAA, NFL. Just don't chase, set up a money management system, stick to It and you will do fine

    I feel for you but I agree with Ca$hflow. Good money management have turned by betting-life around big time. Now, I am never betting more than 2% of my bankroll on any given game. Might take more time to get a big chunk of cash but it almost eliminates the chances of going bust.

    Best of luck to you for the Bills. I'm on OVER myself.

    Sounds like you had a nice trip - pretty introspective. I love those trips. Give it a few days, though, and you'll be back to 'normal'. Sure, tripping shows you (or reminds you) of insights, but unless you remain in that state of mind all the time, you'll typically go back to your regular habits. Trips are good every once in awhile.

    I prefer to gamble alone. I don't need no friend at the table or at the cash window for that matter.
