                Wow. I wouldn't go out in the cold for a Trump rally if it was a block away from me. Then again, I wouldn't go to one regardless of the weather. I'm not into that kind of thing.

                      Did it say what the bet was?

                      Popular vote or electoral college?

                      What odds

                        According to the link:

                        A pal of the fluttering financiar said he had consulted with "Trump camp insiders" before making the high risk bet that could net him a cheque of almost $15million on 2.85 return.

                            ...According to British bookmaker Betfair Exchange...

                            ...The bookmaker said that $337million worth of bets have been placed on the 2020 election...
                            Pretty big election handle that's for sure.

                            But BetFair didn't take the teh 5 million dollar bet...

                            The rich former-banker who is based offshore used a private bookies registered on the tiny Caribbean island Curacao for his risky gamble on today’s US presidential election.

                            A pal of the fluttering financiar said he had consulted with "Trump camp insiders" before making the high risk bet...
                            Could be fake news based on that info.

                                If you are worth 100's of millions a 5 million dollar bet is a just another big bet.. Relax..

                                It's all relative to your net worth..

                                    Trump team must have assured him Brett and Amy will be burning American votes if it is close.

                                          I read someplace that this election is the most bet single event in history.

                                            My next door neighbor owns a record music label and is worth probably close to 750 million if I had to guess. Him and his wife lease new turbo charged loaded his and hers Range Rovers every year.. All I hear every day is improvement work and upgrades on their property next to me.

                                            I get pissed off when they are breaking concrete and building up a bigger and nicer pool in their backyard. I don't say anything..


                                            Just an example of being filthy rich.. I do get pissed off though listening to jack hammering every day.. That's going on now..

                                            Like I said a 5 million bet is just a big bet for some. My neighbors could bet that in their sleep and not even blink..

                                            Just a story.. Trust me I'm not worth that kind of money and not even close but I'm friends with my neighbors.. We talk..

                                                Drudge report had a link the other day saying the election will be the most bet single event.
                                                Damn, wish I copied that link.

                                                  I quoted 337 million, that would be the biggest most likely.

                                                    This wasn't what I read, but this one is good too.

                                                      Overall more money is probably on Biden, based on the odds.

                                                      But damn Seaweed just jinxed Trump lol.

                                                          I was just gonna say it could be a hedge of some sort. Maybe Biden winning = big things for his business

Him and his wife lease new turbo charged loaded his and hers Range Rovers every year.. All I hear every day is improvement work and upgrades on their property next to me.

                                                            I get pissed off when they are breaking concrete and building up a bigger and nicer pool in their backyard. I don't say anything..


                                                            Just an example of being filthy rich.. I do get pissed off though listening to jack hammering every day.. That's going on now..

                                                            Like I said a 5 million bet is just a big bet for some. My neighbors could bet that in their sleep and not even blink..

                                                            Just a story.. Trust me I'm not worth that kind of money and not even close but I'm friends with my neighbors.. We talk..
                                                            Do you bang the neighbors wife?

                                                                  I can tell she gets board and lonely because the RICH Hubby is always traveling back and forth from England and leaving her alone.. Hense all the home improvements with endless money to spend. That's what she does with his millions and it keeps her busy..
