Also, consider the DRF, Sheets, etc as part of what you are betting each day. That can be up to $100! Now beat those costs and the takeout. Do it regularly enough to cover your living bills and let me know how you do it.

I guess it depends on how many "a whole bunch" is, yes? I'd take one $50 winner and 24 losers every single day. This was about making a living, and you aren't going to do it betting even money shots.
Unless someone is buying the sheets or TG, there is no way you have to spend that much. I bet from home, and my only expense is for monthly comma delimited charts from BRIS, $76 per month. I don't pay for PPs as I do some consultant work and get them for free, but if I didn't, I could get unlimited PPs from TSN for $60 per month, or from HDW for around $100 I think.
