    Difference Between Sports Touts And Stock Touts

    Sports Touts

    90% dont gamble which says it all meaning they know they cannot win
    Most do not even know much about sports as they just throw darts and no basis for picks
    Most are not educated and of course broke
    Liars
    Cheaters
    SCUM

    Stock /Financial Touts

    Many use sophisticated analysis to release stocks
    Most are very educated and experts in their fields
    Most do trade their own money
    Many are not broke
    Many do not scam
    most are not sales guys pressuring you

    Of course many lose but you get a much better bang for your buck

    Umm JJ... stock touting is about 99% sales.

    Same thing as sports touts really. The guy on the phone has no real clue, he's just a versed salesman selling some stock the Chinamen in back on the computer told him to sell.

    I actually started gambling after financial juices totally ripped me off. Being right even 60% is not enough.
    Fundamental and even technical analysis works much better with sports than any financial instruments.

    As of touts, 99.9% of them are scam, in both worlds. Only in some exceptional cases they will share their trades.

    A lot of stock services are pretty technical stuff and probably much cheaper per year

    At least with stock info they give you tons of info

    Sports touts its this Bucks +5

    Just got off the phone with a tout.

    New record- 27minutes and 35seconds.

    Boy it was he pissed that I didn't end up signing up.

    I try to keep them on the phone as long as possible. Asking dumb questions.

    Priceless.

    I'd rather watch a game on the television than watching a bunch of numbers on a board going up and down.

    If I have the free time, I always see how long they can go. Usually I get hung up on around 10-15 minute mark.


    this guy today was reeeeally trying.

    He started from $250 down to $50. Guy was desperate. Almost felt bad for the guy. But then around the 20 minute mark he got real aggressive. Basically chewing me out for dragging him along and what not. Then I told him just to bet this so called "lock", with his own $$, for $50 more and he'd have my $50.
    That's when he hung up.

    You should've said you'd sign up if he could break down the Iowa/Minnesota wrestling matchup.
