Great question, I've been thinking about this lately. As history tends to repeat itself, I've been doing better lately and see a bright future, I think I'll be in my prime in about 5 years when I'm 40.
In my 20's I was too young undisciplined, less patient and underfunded in general. Now I have many more tricks up my sleeve.

I will say a good 10 years but, reading and actually listening to some of the veterans you can shave a lot of time off now that the internet is here.
The problem is most people will still succumb to their own weaknesses and bet TV games, all the late games, just to have action etc.
The TV games and special night games will kill you....other than chasing this is still the biggest problem most people will have, not betting MNF etc.

Totally agree Jman 10-15 years is time involved and good listening skills.
I lean 15 years, but some starting oday will easily do it in 10.
Wish I would have had the type of info available today when I began more than 15 years ago.
Can only imagine what guys who began 40 + years ago think how this business has changed.

uppy: Now, back to WVU's post. I think WVU is right on target with the senility thing and experience. Sometimes I can't remember my SS # but I can tell you that Nebraska was a "opening" 14 point favorite over Miami, in the 1984 Orange Bowl for the National Championship. OBTW, for inflation adjusted dollars, the largest bet I ever made. Florida was the ONLY loss Miami had that year and I was in Gainesville for that game. Florida beat Miami till they cried, and then beat them some more for crying. Just like yesterday. I hope I don't lose ALL of my memories. LTarty:

Insiders, according to the majority opinion, guys like me and you and other Old Dusters are DONE. The only thing left for us is to crawl in the grave and have the dirt dumped on us. Woofy made a good point about what guys who have been in this business for 40 years would think. I have a lot more discipline now. I do not need ACTION for actions sake. I know what sport I have the most success at and most importantly, what sports I suck at. Gambling forums, with the RX as the clear leader, have made more info available than at ANY time in gambling history. LT
