I don’t know about you guys, but I F’n hate sports gambling. I hate looking thru each 3:00 AM tennis match to see which Dick Fwuk Eastern European is going to throw the match or finally play to his ability. I hate hypothesizing on which booster is going to influence a college basketball game. I hate conjecturing on how a soccer game in a country I cannot even properly annunciate will “miraculously” go to the underdog or end up in a draw. So instead of hating and regretting and complaining, I’ve decided to join them. Microbet my way to $5,000 and then I am out. Open up a small used cell phone shop in an “urban” area purchasing phones that I know are stolen for pennies on the dollar and then flipping them for close to retail either in-store or online. Join me, hate on me, or simply watch one of the little guys finally make it.

I guess this is going to be like a poker tournament, at some point im going to have to go all-in and double upComment -
Goddamn, just get a job, wtf are you doing???Comment -
Can't. Got a drug felony on my record. Can't even work at Walmart for fuk's sake. Options are limited as are resources. It is very very unlikely that I even make it past $100. But as long as there is something in my account, the dream is still alive. and then i dont have to accept or face the demented reality that the current set of circumstances present.Comment -
I deposited 50 dollars into my 5Dimes account last Thursday and today I have 7,500 dollars in there. Hope is alive for you. I hope you do well and have plenty of success my brotherComment -

Lol what's up with all the ml bets... Don't get fooled by Vegas's lines man ..Comment -
wait did you bet 75 cents of a game?Comment -
What is your job and how much do you earn? My theory is that if you have a felony you either a) have to resort to illegal businesses (drug dealing) b) have a trade/skill (i.e., barber, auto mechanic, construction specialty) or C) own a small business in order to earn a decent living. I have $700 to my name , maybe another $500 in credit access. Paying $300/ week for a motel. 1 wife 1 kid. What do you suggest I do within the next 2 weeks?Comment -
im in the laborors union.. do pretty decent depending on the job between 27-32 hour. hard work but whatever that what i was built for anyway. couple friends of mine got jobs at at&t when they got out and that union to, they do really good, somewhere around 30 a hour plus commission. i hate talking on the phone tho.. there plenty of places that will hire felons these days you just gotta go look.. ive never came across a construction company that cared. i mean maybe if it was for stealing or something but just a drug charge so what.. i told them bout mine during the interview and they said "long as you not doing it here", lol..
i really dont know what to tell ya in the next 2 weeks man, this a really bad time to get a construction gig, im laid off at the moment.. i had to hustle a little bit more when i 1st got out then i got a job landscaping, i promise you none of them will care bout your felony, did that for several years until i was able to get on in the union... dont know where you live but again you prob a few month away from landing one of those jobs. if you live in a are with a lot of snow you can probably get on with them part time when they have snow removal to do until the weather breaks.. there options dude. but again in next 2 weeks i dunno what to tell ya.Comment -
Alright right on bro. I'm in Denver. Don't know if there is a snow removal gig since mostly they are plow truck drivers. The rent deal here is crazy you cant get a spot without 6 months work history or $1500 for a deposit. I know a couple dudes i did time with and they work in construction now no-problem. I've contacted my PO and asked if they had a felon friendly list or something. It's just been frustrating when the interview and everything goes well until they ask "can you pass a background check?" I put it clearly on my application that i got a conviction so I dont know why they are wasting my time if they werent ok with it. It is just a little bit stressful but I'll be alright. In the end, cleaning toilets and serving fries is 1000X then having my family in any trouble. I simply can't risk their future, that's why my roll is only $7. Just cant risk itComment -
oh shit you live in col? i def know a way you could come up real fast, lol.. you dont wanna put your family back thru that tho.. what was your charge and how much time you do?Comment -

I caught two drug felonies, three theft felonies, and like 11 misdemeanors when I was 18. I'm now 23, working full time(have been for about 3 1/2 to 4 years), make $15/hr, wife and kid, live on my own, own two cars.
Not saying all this to toot my own horn just trying to say there are opportunity's out there for people who have made mistakes as everyone has. Hell your in denver, apply for a cannabis shop or something in that field. What I always tell people when they ask me about jobs is temporary services. You just apply to them and they look for you a job, doing that on top of looking on your own and you will find something eventually that you can develop into a craft/skill. You just have to have the urge and drive to get up and beat some doors down. If your mindset is "i got a felony, ill only clean toilets and flip burgers for the rest of my life" then guess what..? Thats all your gonna do. When you wake up in the morning, look at your wife and kid and say to yourself "im not coming home till a find a job or make some money." Just got to have the right attitude bro. Everyone knows that everyone make mistakes in their life, but what employers want to see is that you have learned from it and that you are willing to change. What I did I actually made my convictions work for me, I was truly sorry and a changed man and it came across in the way I carried myself and spoke. Just be remrseful when talking to a potential employer, and if you have to man dont be to proud to beg for a job if worst comes to worst because at the end of the day it falls on your shoulders to put food in that babys stomach and a roof over its head and no one else can do that but you so get up and make things happen for yourself.Comment -
Sorry man I know that was a little bit of a rant, but it hit close to home for me because I have been in the same exact situation you are in. All in all i just want to say that there is hope for people like us. Just keep your head up bro. I know its hard right now but trust me there is light at the end of the tunnel you just have to persevere through it and MAKE YOUR OWN LUCK.
Im telling you right now that if you think gambling is going to feed your family, its not.Comment -
i know truck drivers who make over 60k a year with felonies.Comment -
also try reading self-motivation books
rhinoceros success by scott alexander is a short 96 page one you could look into, it is kind of cheesy but if you look past it, it says a whole lotComment -
not sure how it is in denver but most smaller places that do residential or small commercial snow removal usually have a couple guys that shovel the sidewalk areas while they plowing the driveway/parking lots. find a place that does apartment complexes and im sure they have guys on foot doing the walkway areas.Comment -
