Bookie or Bettor???

[Fishhead]

If you were guaranteed to make the SAME $200,000++ a year doing either, which one would you choose??

BETTOR........hands down for me.

if it's guaranteed...no question about it, I would rather be the bettor. Less headache's and hassle's of dealing with other people and their bankroll issues.

Bookie has its edges, you can actually get credit without being raped on the rates or collateral and its a fairly good stream of income. A lot of bettors in sports and poker suck at money because when they hit some big scores they or their girlfriends/wives relieve them of the money and there isn't enough left when they go cold and need it. Bookies don't have this problem as much, well as long as they aren't blowing money gambling on the games

.....or on women.

bettor of course because being a bookie is illegal and i don't feel like sleeping every night worrying about my door being busted down by the cops and being handcuffed out my door.. I have gone through that twice 9 years ago, so no more. My neighbors all seen me being handcuffed and placed in a cop car. They all think I'm some child molestor or something now. Plus, I like to have my own hours and work when i want. As a bettor, you can work if you want, and take off when you want. I can take off 3 months and travel if i want. Whereas if you're a bookie, forget it. you have to be there for your customers.

BETTOR all the way.. hands down...
