    Nicky: Business Question.
    Currently, is there any way to make the type of money you did in the early 2000's, or is the industry a losing proposition.

    thanks.

    slicker,

    in the year 1999 to 2003.. you could have made any amount of money you wanted.. sky was the limit.. bonus whoring was unreal.. you could literally make millions if you had money... this is how it went..

    every book had 20%, 25%, 30% cash bonuses with a 3x rollover, and no max on the bonus, unlike today.. you cold send 10k to 15 books like this.. plus, you had a bunch of books like ABC Islands who would give you 20% back on losses every month..

    so this is how it went slicker. pay attention.

    you scalp out each game with a negative 2 cent scalp if you want with each book, till you reach rollover.. you collect all the bonuses, which was huge money if you were sending 10k to each book.. now the books you get maxed out from, you'd call them back next day and say, you lost it all, can you give me same deal.. and they'd say.. sure.. so you send another 10k, get another 3k in bonuses... and if you lost it all to 4 books, you get 3k from each of the 4 books.. and the money you'd be sending them would come from the winnings from the other 11 books, which you can always touch.. and now, you are hoping that the 4 books that give you 20% back on your losses, taht you lose to them.. so if you lose 10k to each of the 4 books, you get back another 8k.. (2k each)

    are you following me here, slicker. sorry if i am being confusing.. i woudl have loved to explain this all in a vid instead, much easier.

    but there were big bonus whores back then who made like 200k a month, no joke..

    it was so easy back then, slicker.. today, this dont exist no more... times are tough out there, and making money offshore isn't as easy as it used to be..it's a grind now. lines are sharper too.. back then, you could scalp every game with every book as lines were so opinionated.. unlike today.. today, it's really tough to make a buck, compared to the early 2000's, when it was a cake walk..

    those glory days are over.
