I’ve turned $1,000 into $100,000
I’ve turned $6,000 into $80,000
I’ve turned $11,000 into $550,000
and recently I’ve turned $4,000 into $90,000
With nothing to show for it…I’m a sharp sports bettor, but I always end up going all in. I can never be satisfied until it’s too late. I always need to go all in.
I’ve been reading comments from my last post (turning $4,000 into $90,000 and losing the entire $90,000), and I can’t help but feel like shit.
How do I get over the countless failures? I’ve been chasing the $1,000,000 dream for years.
It sounds like that's your problem, betting too much. If you want to get to 1,000,000, than do so carefully. One of my favorite financial books I've ever bought/read was titled "How to get rich carefully". It is a play on the words "get rich quick". Strong and steady, but not taking too huge of risk tend to be a better route. If you win 80, save 40 of it, and bet the other 40, and so on. I know it's easier said than done but that's just my two.
Well, i like what you have to say. and yes, we agree. and, it sounds like that's your problem "OP".
OP bet too much, even I don't really understand what OP is doing in gambling. I will quote what the OP said, How do I get over the countless failures? I've been chasing the $1,000,000 dream for years.
first, OP must realize that every bet that is made always carries the risk of losing. with the OP's betting style, and the targets he's aiming for, something I didn't even think about. if, OP can do it like he did step by step, why don't he try to do it again. provided that the betting session is carried out wisely, and every analysis and research is carried out very carefully.
Well, the point you said seems to be often applied by gamblers. if we win 80, save 40, and bet another 40. and, this idea is ideal. unfortunately in practice, it is not as easy as we say. in fact, to win 1-2 matches in a single bet, the risk is quite large. IMO, the most fun thing is betting without burden.
