    Tenerife has already been mentioned, so I'll add AndalucĂ­a.This area isn't occupied by toutists heavily like Tenerife and you can enjoy the sea until late October. I'd appreciate if anyone has experience with Azores/ Madeira.

          maybe, you're just doing gambling wrong if it's not worth it to you.

            Canada or UK.

            UK is a paradise for a sports bettor. They're betting on everything..even Royal Wedding, lol.

              Yeah would recommend UK as well, though will likely fail on your requirements if you want decent weather.

              There is so much more opportunites for gambling and a lot more books available for you to use as well, and as someone has said - if you dont live in London then it doesnt cost a fortune either.

              Australia is a tricky one as it is a real pain to get a **** to live there - if you have a particular skill or a trade then there might be more opportunity, but in general it is very tough to get in in the first place !

              By the sounds of things

                Depending on your age, you could get a working holiday vĂ­sa for a year in Australia and I believe the same for NZ. Gives you enough time to see if you like living there enough to go through the hassle of getting a more long term one.

                  Yeah I believe you need to be Under 30, and you can get the 1 year working holiday **** and assuming you stay out of trouble and fulfill certain requirements then you can apply for a further 1 year. Thats what my sister has been doing, though she needed to do 3 months fruit picking in her first year to be granted the 2nd year.

                  Where she has been having issues is that now the 2 years are up they wont grant another **** so if she wants to move out there now, which she does, then she needs to come in on another **** and the 2 best choices were either on a learning **** (which costs a fortune) or for her and her Aussie fella to apply for a Fiance **** which is the route she is going down, but even that is proving difficult as all sorts of paperwork and forms to fill in...

                    UK is extremely expensive, I wouldnt recommend it until one has like a 500k € roll.
                    Living modestly will cost at least 3000 US $ a month and remember about pension and healthcare ...

                      Top 3
                      - Caribbean (costa rica, antigua) (minimal to no taxation, great weather)
                      - Spain (good weather)
                      - UK (legal, weather not so good, but they got the medical covered)

                        isn't there concern that Aussies are headed down same path as US?

                          No?

                          Aus based books don't allow live betting but you can live bet on books like Pinnacle etc. (it's always been this way)

                          The only recent change I've heard of is they want to remove/reduce the "advertising" of odds during broadcasts. I haven't heard anything at least

                          Edit - the banning of advertising live odds during games is just for NRL, no idea about other sports. So, not really sure what you're talking about.

                            Yeah, UK weather sucks. Rain all day, rain all day..

                            Also, Brits are cold people. I think Americans are better, more cheerful people..

The weather is the best on the planet. You get the best of both worlds- quick drive to the States, great weather, cheap luxurious housing, and you can gamble all you want.

                                      You can even work in San Diego and commute home everynight if you want to. I live south of the border at my 2nd home 3-4 days per week; and I spend the rest of the time in San Diego. Don't believe the hype, its not as dangerous and scary as the media makes it out to be. I find the people to be extremely friendly. There are also a wide variety of beautiful, friendly senoritas that love gringos.

                                      You don't need to do any paperwork with visas, passports etc. You can just rent a house there, and its a wrap. PM me if you want any advice.
                                      good info

                                          I spent some time in Antigua. Beautiful beaches. Too many barking dogs. Kind of third world. The joke there is if you want to leave Antigua a millionaire,bring two million.

                                                VERY TRUE!

                                                Phil Ivey recently moved to Macau. He will know what he is doing?!?!?!?!

                                                      Tijuana is the biggest dirt hole in the world I used to go in my early 20's you could get a BJ right in a bar but as for the city itself I would never in a million years want to live there ....man it's dirty
