    Down on my luck right now and don't have the funds to put into a sportsbook. Pretty simple. It's been a shitty last few months.

    I think you and me should reload a small amount once the playoffs start and go all in and take the Chiefs to beat the Colts in Indy. Then find one more all in bet in the playoffs... probably Seattle's first home game after bye week and probably make it the first half. Then after those first 2 hit... we can go back to slow and steady.

    Seriously... there is literally zero chance the Colts beat the Chiefs as long as the Chiefs stay as healthy as they are right now and get back their top DE's.

    Christmas is almost here. Anyone who gives you money... save it, the wild card round is literally 2 weeks later.

    I just have been literally convinced since even 2 weeks ago that the Chiefs are going to play the Colts as #5 vs #4 and the line will be low... easy win. Now that they got the games out of the way and beat Titans again and lost to Bengals its a lock. May only get 1 more win vs either Jags or Houston @ home.

    6-2 first 8 games... 3-5 after only beating divisional rivals Titans and either Jax or Hou again since they will be @ home and actually pressure the QB.

    Stay up buddy and remember this feeling....cause you'll be on the other end soon. To really enjoy the top of the mountain you have to have experienced the doldrums.

    And you probably have more hair than JJGOLD. Worth more than any book balance.

    Dude, I'm an adult. I don't get money for Christmas. Any extra money I do get is going into my savings acct in case something happens like my truck breaks down or I need something. I've just had a rough last few months and I'm trying to dig myself out of it. As much as I'd love to hit a sportsbook for $2K right now and be back on my feet...I just can't.

    Thanks tat. I've never been this broke in my life and I won't forget this feeling anytime soon. Things are starting to look better, just need time I guess.

    Abundance is a state of mind first and a reality second. Fake it till you make it man. Breaks will come your way soon.

    I know that. Every year at Thanksgiving I tell family DO NOT buy me presents... you need your money for you. I only want to see family and have a good time on Christmas. I buy presents for my nieces and usually get something for my Mom and gf... my Mom is the one person I can't stop from getting me something no matter what I say lol

    and why does it have to be 2k??? You can literally take $150 and build it into thousands if you can get 2 easy all in wins to start out.

    Deliver pies. When I was laid off I did that, made $5-800 a week. Easy money if you live in a white neighborhood.

    Yeah, I hope so. I've sent my resume out freaking everywhere. Companies are hiring, but they want you to just come on board as a 100% commission, independent contractor. No benefits, no pay.
