real professional strategizing, somewhere in between watching moyal lie in bed half asleep with the webcam on, and listening to everyone else make weird comments about dicks.
what are the average annual gambling earnings of the chat group over the last 10 years? my guess is it's negative, which is fine, it's supposed to be fun.
this is one of those threads that is totally wrong all the way around. first it's bragging about a bet after the fact (when none of us can bet it), then it gets worse by saying we have this sharp group of guys on chat that give picks to only us and we won't share...Comment -

#112so net of taxes you make about 70k/year. retiring 1 year earlier wouldn't change your life? heck, even buying a corvette or taking a trip would be considered "life-changing" for some, semantics perhaps but just typing this message has changed my life a bit vs. not typing it.Comment -

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the median wage for workers in the United States in December 2013 was $786 per week or $48,872 a year for a 40 hour work week.However, salaries can vary significantly based on both on occupation and location. For example, dentists, on average, earn $145,240 annually, while teachers earn an average of $53,400 annually. Jobs in large cities which have a higher cost of living tend to pay more than jobs in more rural areas.Comment -

#119there are alot of back and forths on things being "relative" and
more back and forths on semantics in regards to "life-changing"
then some discussion on actual amounts of money as compared to yearly salaries
keep in mind though, as I think it is getting lost in the fray....
this is 55k of WON money....
when you win at bingo, or scratch offs, or find 20 bucks on the ground, or win 200 at the horsetrack or quadruple your bank roll in an offshore sports book.
that money you "found" is not equal to money you earn....
there is such a high that comes with the winning, and a feeling of being able to be a bit irresponsible and reward yourself and others with the money.Comment -

#120i see your point archie
but whether it's found, earned, whatever, i never thought i'd hear people saying 70k wasn't a lot of money, 125k wasn't a lot of money, etc
i know quite a few people that would kill someone for that amount of money
but i guess sbr is full of nothing but multimillionaires with private jets, bentleys, etcComment -

#121People are just have the wrong perspective or lost appreciation for the money they have.

seems like whatever you make in this country, the governments and banks take most of it (unless you get out of debt and hide the rest heehee)

I live to work, I don't work to live. That's for openers.
#2, I explained after all the outgoing expenses, there is not a ton left over. That is my point, my only point, I don't see how you can miss that point. It's not cryptic, there is no hidden message, I have a good job, I make good money, I love what I do, because I am a geek, I was born a geek, never, as in ever, did I say I was not happy, show me where I said I was unhappy, I'll save you time, I did not.
One more time, I am 95 percent happy with everything going on all things considered, I am just saying, here in New England, with a mortgage, two cars (PIF) and everything else, 125K is not a shitload of money.Comment -

#128I would stay in the zone before taking a vacation or spending the money. Anyone who is an actual winner knows you have to be in the zone for success to continue much like everything in life.
on a side note college football is almost here and NCAAF will change a lot more than most think imoComment -

#131its ridiculous that we are arguing over whether $70k won gambling is life changing. lets drop the argument and just give props to moyal that the bet was sharp as hell. he should stop stop betting nba, mlb, ncaaf etc b/c he loses in the sports but anyone can see he is sharp in tennis
not only did he win the future he also has been killing tennis approx 1 month before start of wimbledonComment -

70k or whatever he has is definitely life changing for him... nobody said it wasnt...its not for everyone and most responsible adults would pay off debts and simply put most of whats left into savings and never see until they retire... unfortunately, he wants to learn the hard way... its just more money in a bankroll that he has no chance to hold on to....
moyal, you really want this money to change your life? use it to go to college... get an education and get a real job... change your life buddyComment -

#140moyal, how much of that 70k are you going to save or spend, and how much are you gonna gamble?
why did you not even consider hedging? unless 55k is a comfortable swing for your bankroll...Comment
