I’ve supported myself with average to slightly above average income 3 out of the last 4 years betting on sports. Let me tell you one thing that helps me a lot. I’m patient AS FUK. I don’t need daily action & I can’t find value in daily action, maybe it’s because I’m too lazy to really find it or it’s just not my style. I’ve always prescribed to the best bet theory & some days if I so happen to like multiple teams/games I’ll put together a parlay always backed by individual bets. I’ve always prescribed to this motion. The more I win the more I gamble, not always amounts per say but volume. I bet anywhere from 100 on parlays & I kid you not 33% of my income the last 3-4 years has been from winning parlay bets. Maybe that’s all luck and that’s why I’m still in the game. My other bets are a minimum of 1000 to 5000 depending on sport/confidence. A 10k bank roll is a minimum each year for a starting point to indulge in this business for me personally. There’s specific reasons why I’ve attempted to do this as most people won’t even try unless by default they are unemployed. My day job is a electrician and I’ve worked in the construction trade for over 10 years. Long story short my asshole uncle Johnny SOLD my grandfather’s company eight years ago and stole hundreds of thousands from my father & myself. So the trade has rubbed me the wrong way & working for other companies directly never really works out. I will do anything and everything to not go back and work for the man, the man my own family my uncle F.U.C.K.E.D me & my future to run the family business.
