Not the mention the risk of being stiffed by SBR is probably = to the risk of SBR abolishing the value of a point anyway, so essentially risk free. I'm not saying it's a no brainer for everyone but for some of the whales it certainly is.

    Have fun and have a very profitable stay in Vegas Johnny...........probably will not be seeing you this trip.

    Be good to Bobby.

    If you need anything while in town, just let me know, more than happy to help.

    Why not just offer another discounted prop on Obama again? It would accomplish the same thing (give out some free points) and lock them up for several months longer...

    I do not understand the single A+ rating to be honest with you. That, all things being equal, is not that great. It is above average but... not 1% IMO.

    Your point about SBR abolishing the value is well taken and valid. I just assumed that SBR would have rated itself as AAA+.

    In my world, that is not a solid enough endorsement for 1% even if it is only 30 days.

    Because bet could be voided within days due to a possible successful assasinination.

    Bonds are highly underrated in the investment community, always have been, always will be.

    Sorry Fishhead I stand corrected as I didn't consider the possibility of the bet getting voided being what prevented it from being a lock

    Obviously the learner curve is alot slower for some of us especially with your absence slowing down the process even more...

    you make the currency so print more.

    Works great in the US!!

    btw this will turn into a cluster **** and I hope you're smart enough to realize that. Just list the price and accept. Quit being cheap on 100 points that are only worth $5.

    One of the strong reasons I recommended loading up on commodities 5+ years ago................thank you very little.

    Many self-made millionaires around forumville for following this advice, most of which can be found at 2+2, Fatwallet, and Agweb.

    Put me down for 30 at 95 as long as the fine print doesn't include the word/s "freeplay". I was coming in at 95.1 but figured it be nice.
