Jerry although Pure Incentive seemed like a logical winner, I have lectured you about 1000 times never to send it in on a pure closer in a paceless race. Turf especially is all about the pace. There wasn't any in that race and once the 1/4 was over with, so was Pure Incentive.
You need to get a grip. And mommy and daddy won't always be there to bail you out. You ain't the Rockefellers. For a guy to bet a grand(more than you make in a week's pay) on a ****ing pik-6 is pure insanity. To get mad when you lose on is even more insane. Its like the hardest bet in the world to hit.
Grow the **** up will you? I'm losing patience with your repeating the same mistakes for years and years. Its like you have no desire to learn and straighten up.

Its your fault by not responding to me in time, by the way ill probably make 1480 every two weeks before taxes, so i make around 1100-1200 a check, and yes same bs applies with my parents. I gotta pay for cable, cell phone, and an additional 200 for "rent". PLUS i gotta send some money to my cousins baby daughter who happens to be my goddaughter who lives in the PHilippines.

so in other words Oracle is right when he says you are betting more than you make in one week (not one paycheck). That's bright...keep that up, should get you far in life.

I'm an equal opportunity basher, Pais, friend or not. Jerry, paying "rent" at age 25 is something that everyone her has done or does, its just a given and taken for granted. 200 bucks a month? You gotta be kidding me. So basically you pay 200 bucks a month for a heated room with an all you can eat buffet upstairs. Cry me a ****ing river will you?
Its time to grow up Jerry. Long past time at that.

Or what he should try to do is take that same paycheck--plus or minus, and multiply his rent by five and add in a few other bills like utilities (that I guess he doesn't pay) then add a horse, car , student loan, credit card, dog--like I do every month. And see if he can survive?

I'll repeat my advice to this immature adult.

Go spend a couple hours in the waiting room of a pediatric cancer facility.

You do not have any problems you cannot solve.

If you have the balls to wager a week's pay on a horse race, then you should have the nerve to do this.

You will walk out a changed man (or boy).

Curt,
You just said a whole lot.
For those that want to make money in horse racing:
1) Don't become an "over your head" bettor.
2) Don't become an owner, unless you can afford top stock and all the rest.
3) Don't become a breeder...see above.
4) Don't become a trainer unless you have the owners that can afford you, even then, sometimes they can't...so get ready to eat it when despite your best efforts, the horse isn't there.

Here's how to succeed:
5) Sell hay and feed to the barns. Win or lose, those critters have to eat.
6) Equine medications...though most vets have their own supplies. Find one or two from French labs that tests haven't been devised for yet.
7) Invest in carrots that you can mark up to "visitors" on the back stretch.
8) Trucking these critters is also a good option, just pass on a surcharge for the extra cost of gas/deisel.
9) Find a use for all the manure. Mushroom farming (mycology) is a growth market.
10) Raise rabbits. They grow faster on hay and have better market value, especially to the French restaurants where you can sell the mushrooms.
