    In 2 more weeks I will officially

    be retired from the teaching profession after 35 yrs. Now I will be fixing up my house, putting it on the market and moving to Vegas. No more bosses, students, in-services, evaluations, paperwork etc.

    I think you were one of my teachers in HS. Did you ever bet a student on any games?

    Currently living 30 mins. south of Dallas.
    Will be receiving a monthly check of $3500.
    JJ-will not be a disaster. Have been to Vegas so many times that it"s like my second home. Been gambling offshore almost everyday since the ESB days.

    Exactly I will be looking for that place when I come out during football season. I don't play table games only sports.

    No more working for me. Just spending time in the sportbooks, eating good food, people watching and going on vacations. I had it with bosses and answering to them.

    Post some videos when you get there!
    Don't live too far from the strip.
    Diversify. Learn to do more than sports betting.

    Wish you best of luck. Stay the course with your wagers and hopefully you can get a few vacations paid for by the books! $3500 a month - that include a ss draw or not yet? What is real estate like out there? Know they got crushed a few years back - still good deals?

    $3500 is after taxes taken out and health insurance paid for. Will receive $130/ month from ss in 2 years when I turn 62. Not sure what the real estate is in Vegas.

    You'll not be spending much time in sports books as there is no need to because most properties have phone betting applications that it's so much easier

    I know about the apps but prefer the atmosphere of the sportbooks.

    The atmosphere in the sports books gets old very quickly if you live here and you will see… Most people end up not staying in Vegas more than three years
