The 10 Grand at 4/9 punters are usually OK. The ones they don't like are the chancers who regularly nick the each way money!!

By contrast our maths master, after our final School Cert exams (yes I pre-date GCEs) spent the last few maths lessons of our school careers taking us through the mathematics of making a book. That nearly convinced me to become a bookie - and stopped me from ever becoming a punter ! RNLI Governor World species 471 : UK species 105 : English species 95 .

Vagabond 1021 Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 I've pulled forward my post of two years ago. If I had followed my schoolboy whim and become a bookie, I might well have become a billionaire like Denise and left the day to day running of the betting shops to underlings whilst enjoying the proceeds. I could have afforded many more trips abroad after exotic species, more salmon fishing, my own marlin boat and luxury back-up etc etc.. - and as a result of the life-style that went with it, probably died of a stroke in my fifties - or not - as Chesters might put it. The amount of money spent by betting firms on advertisements during televised sport programs is an indication of how lucrative a business bookmaking is.
