    Ok...Lets not buy the bullshit the books put out- They rarely take a position on any games and NEVER lose in the long run and RARELY lose in the short. I did it for 27 years and it was a positive cash flow all 27 of them, all 350 months, all 1300 weeks, and 99.99% of the days

    Don't feel bad for the books..

    Great free publicity for the book promoting the myth that the they somehow have the potential to get buried by bad short term results. They will still be deeply in the black at the end of the year and overall clean up on their high juice futures.

    You're not beating the books, youre not competing against the books..The books pay the winners from the losers and take a fee for holding everyones money.

    When you collect interest on your banking account do you think you're beating the banks?
    When you make a claim on your home insurance do you think you beat em

    The Banks, the Insurance companies and the Books ALWAYS win...Its a rigged game, a racket

    Duhuh

    I would never pay, what I can only assume is 10-25% fee to a third party to arb either. You can get an online loan with no origination fee for 5 figures in a day or two if your credit isn't destroyed. Just pay your own arb and repay the loan.
