If you were super rich would be bet?

[charliebrown]

I don't think I would.

If you had unlimited funds why would you need to bet.

This reminds me of Brewster's Millions.

You of all people should understand that money has nothing to do with it. Literally nothing.

In fact, do you remember a therapist recommended method to deal with the problem? Make smaller bets.

This alone shows money isn't the root of it.

You, @charliebrown know this, man!

Only point would be for action

same reason folks with limited funds gamble

And same results can take place, even if you have $50 million if you’re betting millions per year you can go broke

Just like if you have a regular house, a pension and maybe $50k in the bank, and you’re betting tens of thousands a year, you can go broke

If you gamble, or live, beyond your means you’ll eventually go broke

Rich people play the stock market - not sports betting.

Just like big time casino players play baccarat and not slots.

Gambling is gambling - just some is far more sophisticated than other forms.

There’s plenty of billionaires that lose everything from casino gambling

That's what I'm saying. There would be no excitement since I'm already rich. Id hire a shooting coach and travel around doing 3 pt shooting and ft contests

Ok, I see what you're saying.

That said, I still think there could be more to the picture that you might be missing.

We aren’t talking SBR points billionaires here - talking people who are actual billionaires.

Im sure there are some who lose heavily - but the thing about that level of person is they have people managing their money and providing a layer of protection. It’s why lotto winners go bust fast - no management plan in place - just handed a lump sum and never get people in place to protect them.

I probably wouldn’t do it to the extent I do now. The true handicapper in you will always want to poke the bear. If I was worth 10 million dollars if that’s even considered “rich” in 2025 lol. My bet size would probably be a $1,000 per unit & I would never raise it.

I would definitely still bet and at a much higher amount.

Its the challenege of beating the system that drives many of us, not the potential for getting weathly at this process.

Its like a job with the assignment of beating the books. You spend years and years perfecting your process to achieve that goal.
