Letting teens gamble online a bad or good thing?
There are worse things to spend money on than online gambling for a kid.
3 Newest gangsta rap CD's $50
20 yummy big Macs that you deservingly crave but that the government preaches and brainwashes about not eating $50
New pair of baggy ass jeans where the waist is below your nutsack $50
Taking a teenage Britney Speares wannabe slut out from school.$50 resulting in abortion payment of $1000
Donating $50 to Hillary's campaign.
Buying 2 packs of ciggs in New York State $50
Giving $50 to a cause like Habitat for Humanity and putting in 20 hours of work a week there for free that your school mandates you do for credit.
Putting in $50 to a sportsbook.com account where you get a risk free $10 each week,a 10% signup bonus and on average $25 in comps a year where you can bet 4 team same team and total parlays that pay $125 a pop for $5 bet priceless!''I hate those commercials and that guy in the comercial's voice''
Then you can bankroll all your winnings over 3 years and spend it on hyper inflated tuition at a communistic-socialistic college on fluff courses where kids from foreign or impoverished or legal troubled backgrounds go for free.
It's a good thing a 15 year old kid hasn't seen much of the crap that goes on in the world because he would tell someone to stuff it if they told him it's bad,immoral and illegal to gamble.Why do you think they recruit teenagers to fight wars and not 40 year olds.Comment -
I think half the 15 year olds who bet are regular SBR posters.Comment -
I almost made a long post here but then thought better about it. In the mid 90's when i was a teenager there was HUGE $ to be made in high school. I bet more per game when I was 16 then I do now because back then there was just so much more money available to me that could be obtained through high risk ventures and I did not have the responsibilities I do now, which made the risk much more worth the odds.
My life experiences have great potential to be one of the best gambling movies ever

I am only 19, I started betting online when i was 17 and got paid by check and western union by VIP.com. Like most books VIP made me complete the security form and send a copy of my drivers licence and check/credit card. When I sent the copy of the licence I purposley cut the licence off the page where it said my date of birth and they paid me, only had a problem getting paid once and it was a very small amount like a few hundred $$ but they did pay me.Comment -
High School. Funny you should say that. You are correct about there being tons of money in high school.I almost made a long post here but then thought better about it. In the mid 90's when i was a teenager there was HUGE $ to be made in high school. I bet more per game when I was 16 then I do now because back then there was just so much more money available to me that could be obtained through high risk ventures and I did not have the responsibilities I do now, which made the risk much more worth the odds.

I too can remember making tons of cash.
Two others and myself used to run a good little racket. Every day we would skip class and take all three lunch periods. The three of us would fan out and ask ugly girls for lunch money. A dollar here a dollar there. People in the hall ways. All during lunch period.........5 days a week. We would pool it for 30 days and split it...then repeat the process.
Weed sales took place before the 1st class started in the morning. Available in $5 or $10 packets.
Craps games held in the bathroom...$1 min/$5 max.
Blackjack at the lunch table....again$1 min/$5 max.
There were also kids who would buy candy bulk and sell it at retail right out of backpacks in the hallways.
P.S. If I crapped out and the kid I was playing was talking or didn't look at my roll....I was so quick I would call out a different point, snatch the dice and have them spinning on the bathroom floor before he even knew what was going on.
Tons of money in high school.Comment -
The best (not most profitable but favorite overall) thing I did was every week sell 150-200 raffle tickets for $2 each with the prize being a single case of beer.Comment -
I was posted up at age 16. Actually learned a few valuable lessons that have saved me money down the road.Comment -
Coach- Weren't you passing out parlay cards at 12?Comment -
Yes Raiders
I reported the kids to the book yesterday and they were booted. I did the right thing here.Comment -
It's very easy for kids to use gift cards, and then change the birthdate on a license. This is one of the reasons laws are being passed against online gaming that limit everyone. Right here at SBR, I can tell some of the posts are coming from underage bettors.Comment -
I wish the internet had been around when I was 15.Comment
