Here is my advice.
Move to Vegas and live your dream. Keep a video diary of what happens. If everything goes bad, you can take your video diary, make a documentary about it and submit it to film festivals.

You could buy websites and collect the Google ad income or affiliate income. There is a website called Flippa.com that's like the eBay for websites. While many people buy a website and expand it to generate more revenue, you can buy several sites and just generate the income - much like rental real estate.

The government hates that shit because how do they audit $15M worth of Adidas sporting goods, and link it to $10M of ticket sales, and equate that to $25M in sportscoin redemptions, and... you know what I mean. The reason why they get away with it online with World of Warcraft and all that stuff is because it's a harmless activity and there's no ability to effectively trade it for equal value in the real world. Once it becomes close to legal tender, they will shut it down. Sorry. Nice try. Not a bad idea. But it's not gonna happen. Thanks for the constructive feedback. I've been brainstorming ideas that involve virtual currencies and the gambling idea does seem to have its obstacles. On the good side, I have a local, virtual currency idea that has potential.

My Proposal for Legalized Sorts Gambling and Stimulating Sports Attendence
in Gaming Industry - US
Hey Everyone,
So I work in Advertising/Marketing and I've been playing with an idea on how to legalize sports gambling while also stimulating sports attendance. I came up with the idea after reading about the BitCoin virtual currency. Alright, here is goes. 1). The major sports Leagues NFL, MLB, NBA and NHL (and possibly MLS, WNBA, AFL) create a virtual currency. Let's call it the Sportscoin. 2). The leagues create a betting site that can only use Sportscoins as betting units. 3). You get Sportscoins when you buy tickets for sporting events. The valuation will be $1 equals 1 Sportscoin. 4). You wager with the Sportscoins. So for instance, if you brought $500 worth of tickets to baseball and football games, you have 500 Sportscoins to wager. 4). You can use then use the sportscoins to buy Sports merchandising from the leagues (Which you can then sell on Ebay). Or you can sell your Sportscoins, (on the blackmarket) to other people. 5). I believe this tackles the problem or illegal activity since the Sportscoins currency is controlled by the leagues. And it would not be in the interest of anyone to rig games. This gives the recreational gambler the chance to legally bet. (And for compulsive gamblers, the ability to control their spending). And this adds values to game tickets. Anyway, thought I'd just throw this out there and see what everyone thinks. Thanks.

4). When you lose the spread bet to a meaningless, last second score.

I went to a game a few months ago and it was one of the better football games I've seen live. No joke. They play for real.

Kayne doesn't live in the same world as 99.999% of people on this planet. This is a guy that can spit on people, insult them and he has the fame and money to get away with it. Lord helps him if both of those go away.

Whoops my bad. Betting against dogs in 2004 and 2007 are -24.8- and -4.75 units. There has been no year, in the past six seasons, that betting +200 dogs were profitable.

Betting +200 dogs is 14-54, so far, this year. You would have made 15.65 units betting the favorite. The stats on betting +200 dogs is on the link below. In the past six seasons, betting +200 dogs was profitable in 2004 (+24.80 units) and 2007 (+4.75 units). https://bit.ly/1qcLPS |

The US gov't won't be able to pay full Medicare and Social Security benefits soon. And the Chinese will stop lending us money sooner than that. In five years, gambling, drugs and prostitution will be legal in just about every state. Perhaps these services will be only available in certain areas of the state. But the US will have no choice but to explore every avenue to generate revenue.

Great System jv040 My strategy would be to bet x2 units on games where both teams are from the same conference. That way you have the best of both worlds.
