    If you were a billionaire.......
    Would you still bet sports, if money was no object and winning or losing wouldn't affect finacially either way.

    people bet not for the money but for the rush.. gambling is a sickness. woudl a crack addict take crack still if she had 1 billion? of course. it's an addiction

    gambling is also a hobby and a challenge and fun as hell. of course we'd all still bet.. whoever says no is full of it. the proof. my buddy won 10 million lottery 12 yrs ago. he's a big gambler. he told me if he'd win 2 million lottery one day, he'd never bet again. 12 yrs later, hes still gambling and has never stopped.. and he stays home each night and gambles.. it's only thing that makes him happy. it's in our blood..

          If I was a billionaire, I would not be a billionaire for too much longer. So the answer to your question is of course, yes.

              I know we gamble for more than just to win money, for the rush and the action etc... But if you had that much money how much would you have to bet to get a rush, millions? Who would take that kind of action?

                  No.


                  If I had a billion, I'd be living somewhere down in the Caribbean...Not giving a f\*\*k about sports or the rush, because I know I'm living the life.

                    If I was a billionaire, I would stop gambling as a "punter" and start gambling as a bookmaker.

                      So that's one no. I don't know really because as of now I make 12 bucks an hour and when I have a killer Sunday and get my account up over what I would make in two weeks its such a good feeling but if I was fuk you rich I don't know that I would care, I would probably play like the highest limit poker game in the world with the big pros and donate the winnings

                        That's an Interesting angle, you could have the highest limits of any book, not a bad idea

                                Yes.

                                But I wouldn't watch the games. Would be too busy faking different high priced hookers, and porn stars. I would be a very frivolous,and wasteful person. I just wouldn't give a fuk

                                  Fck yeah, the loses wouldn't piss me off anymore but I'd still be into it just for capping the games and putting in that bet. Best part for me is just placing the bet.

                                    These games aren't just going to up and make themselves interesting.

                                                          I like when people in my neighborhood know when I make a big bet as everyone wishes me luck and I feel important
                                                          10,000 that's it? Thats only a thousandth of a percent of a billion you think that would get your juices flowing ?

I'd also put together a top offshore book and make even more money so it would just offset any gambling losses. It's weird to think about b/c the part of gambling and playing poker etc is to get money you wouldn't of otherwise had. With so much money I'd probably have to get a "rush" off other things like business etc.
