lol

this would only make sense if I caught the disease or someone close to me did

I'm angry that the world is overreacting and then their overreaction has affected me monetarily

I'm still consistent in my views

anyways brah maybe you and the other moral warriors can place more bets on how many people will die to the corona virus or other scumbaggery

It's not too bad since none of them have mortgages, I would just have to cover the HOA fees and property taxes.

Outside of that I'm an investing idiot. Most of my money was in money markets, high yield savings, CDs, bonds, etc. super low risk donk investments that have guaranteed %. I had some in stocks but it's still way up from where I started so I'll just hold. I don't know anything about crypto and sold everything I had during the first big surge. I also was big into precious metals like platinum, palladium, and rhodium. Might sell the palladium, but will keep the rest. Those are up so much in the last 3 years and I took so much profit out that it would have to crash to 0 to essentially cause an issue. I also have a lot of land but that's more of a long term investment. I just buy super cheap land near towns that I hope will explode soon. Been lucky with some plots outside of Austin in the last couple of years and hoping my investment around Kansas City will pay off soon.

The web based portion of my portfolio has been really struggling in the past week. Ad revenue is staying steady, but affiliate income is plummeting. It doesn't really affect me personally but what it's going to end up doing is just having me re-invest less money into the sites, which means less pay for people I hire, etc. Will try to keep them going for as long as possible but if it's running super negative (e.g., a site is losing 1k/month) then I'd probably scale back on content. I don't really see that coming soon tho. Most of them cover their costs (e.g., paying people to write, hosting, marketing, development of new sites) just from ads, affiliate income is the profit.
sigs, i know you don't do pm but i have some affiliate business for you if you pm me an email

i triple pinkie swear to not use this direct communication to ever talk to you about your picks or ask for advice etc - will strictly be about affiliate work for the eccommerce sites launching this week

Not everyone thinks like you, you cretin.

Even if I were a piece of **** like you, I stand to gain far more from (and have lost far more from this) a miracle where we go back to normal as fast as possible than I could ever remotely hope to get down on any COVID bets. Nice try though.

How am I the POS while you're placing multiple bets on the corona outcome?

You have literally made multiple posts about it lol

moral warriors when will they learn

edit : I'm not sure what your first reply even means but w.e it's just funny watching people like you and everyone else jump on the corona bandwagon and judge me while placing bets on how many people die lol funny world we live in where we judge people on the words they say rather than the actions they take

I paid the insurance on my car the other day. I bet on myself getting in a car accident. How awful.

Let’s be clear: I’m not judging you for being an a-hole. I’m judging you for being an idiot and an a-hole.

So you went from saying you don't do it to defending it within a post?

Good on you bro keep up the good work

moral warrior at its best

honestly I don't care if you judge me or not lol I don't know you nor want to

I just find it comical that people like you go around overreacting to posts about death then do stupid **** like bet on corona deaths outcome

also how can you compare it to insurance lol you take up -ev bets like insurance just in the off chance it happens

when you place bets on the outcome of corona then you hope that outcome happens

literally hoping the death toll meets your bet criteria so you can make a few dollars

if that isn't the definition of scumbag then I don't know what is

Never denied making a bet on COVID. What I said was that I don’t hope it wins, both because COVID being not as bad as expected is good for business (sports to bet on coming back and financial investments going up being worth far more than any possible betting volume) and because I’m not a piece of **** who wants death and destruction. We make -EV bets on insurance because they are +EG, not because they’re like some lottery ticket. I look for bets on COVID that are +EG. No surprise someone who couldn’t and still doesn’t grasp the current crisis can’t grasp an essential concept of advantage gambling (and any type of financial investment) that has been discussed on this forum ad nauseum.

I feel like I instigated this little fued by commenting on Hedgies post.
I should have known better.
Ivr is who he is, like millions of others. I'm sure he's not a bad guy.
We accept people for who they, that's all. Even if they can sometimes be wicked annoying!

Being the lowest baller hear who still mostly relies on his old school instincts, I bet the over on a game that was heavily favored to end a draw. We all know draws usually are low scoring games! We don't need a model for that logic!
But at least I we got the second game right.
Melbourne city for the win, 4-2
Brisbane roar vs Newcastle jets 1-0
But, we also managed to buy 34 mgm shares for 6.45 and sell
For 10.24 . Yeahh

Swoop, I'm loving Australia, get the bed bunk ready my buddy!
