Its a tough way to make an easy living.

Thats a quote for making it as Professional Gambler.

I could If I had a big enough bankroll.

To be continued..........

I think as a rule in general, there's 2 things I won't lend $$$ for, or ask to borrow $$$ for: gambling or drugs, or to people that are closely affiliated with either.

For the for the "closely affiliated" part, I mean I have a friend who unfortunately in the past has been a pretty hardcore user of many kinds of drugs (thank god he got himself into rehab... clean except for weed so far), and he'd ask to borrow $$$ from me for various things. It would never be for drugs, b8ut the the reason he'd ask to borrow money, is he used it all up buying drugs, so he didn't have any $$$ to do or buy anything else. So I wouldn't lend him $$$, because eventhough he didn't need it for drugs, it was because of drugs that he didn't have the $$$ he needed. So lending him $$$ would still be helping his drug habit, and I refused to be a part of it.

I won't ask to borrow $$$ if the purpose is for gambling. Eventhough I'll get that itch, I'll sit on the sidelines. But I also won't lend anyone $$$ for that purpose either. Pretty much if anyone at the CBY were to ask me for $$$, I'd say no, because the purpose would be obvious.

If you could get a 20% ROI without a rebate, you'd be crazy NOT to be betting full time.

rebates are available at about 15%, at a half mill a year in action if you could break even capping you would net $75k.

I've looked at their site before (what little of it there is). They want a bunch of information without providing anything about their site, etc... Thanks for the response.
