It's not a myth, it's possible but you're right about being sceptic. Definetely, it's not for everyone. Only the ones who have excellent control and discipline can make a living by this.
Let me tell you my story. It's my dream/goal to make a living by this. However, I don't consider myself as a "Professional" right now since I have a day-time job.
To reach my goal, I made a plan. My first goal was to reach 5k before April 2009. (for baseball) My bank was 4,500 when the April comes in. My target was to reach 20k in the end of baseball season..
In the end of May, my bankroll was 9,000.
In the end of June, I reached 16,000.
In the end of July, my bankroll was 22k.
My target for August was 30k.
Right now, my bankroll is 53,400.
I'm using 5 books right now.
I'm very close to my target but why I didn't dump my day job? Simple! I didn't make any withdrawals from my betting bank to pay for my living expenses, thanks to my day job! If you don't have a job, you will use your betting bankroll to spend for your living expenses as well. So don't quit your job before reaching 80-100k.
My goal is to reach 100k before next April. Just believe in yourself, have a plan and stick to it.
I was about to ask the same, lol. If that's ok with you, of course
I'm so frustrated right now, I paid almost a grand for this capper and his MLB plays totally suck. Today, another losing day with 2 losses and no wins, and so far this month his plays have gone 18-24. That's horrible for the price I paid.
Yeah, thanks to parlays. I know they are a suckers bet but I do pretty good with them. Like the parlay I hit yesterday for $4,000. I went through $500 on other parlays before I hit another one. I think eventually you will hit one if you keep it to two or three teams. Although the one yesterday was a 4 team parlay.
