Have you ever had a friend or co-worker who enjoys making friendly bets to Self improve?

For instance, you could bet on losing X amount of weight this month?

Last year, I made a similar bet to gain some weight (I'm very thin). So in my case my friend was also thin so we make a Bet to reach some Amount of weight before the end of the month. The bet wasn't a big deal it was only to buy a full meal for the other person just in case of not meet the expected weight. For example If my friend don't reach the expected weight and I reach it, then my friend should pay my meal. I that occasion we both reach the the expected weight and none of us need to pay the other person meal.

Do you have some similar story?, please share it, i would like to read it.
Well it's a nice betting strategy to add up for those slim daddy like you Grin.  But Surely I havent tried such bet before maybe I will tryout some day. Even if i where to try it out,  reverse will be the case because I need to lose weight instead of adding up.

This may not be a typical sports or casino topic, but I think self-improvement deserves some attention.
I don't think there is anything wrong with this type of bet even if it's not a regular type of bet.  Afterall people bet on Trump and kamala who to win,  people bet on horicane Milton category 5  and of course people bet on country to experience war. So yours is not different from theirs.

For example, how about a challenge to do 50 push-ups a day for a month? Would you bet on yourself to complete it?
Yeah this is worthy of betting since it is challenge that will inprove a healthy lifestyle, just like the push up till bitcoin hit $100k thread. but that challenge is not a betting competition.
