I can usually wrap my head around people's ambitions even if they greatly differ from my own. But this town of wax thing is really freaking me oot.

Maybe when it is completed and you are able to see pictures / videos it will make more sense on how awesome it is.

You've given up on amateur sluts and pay for play whores. Please tell me your wax people will NOT be anatomically correct.

No idea who Oksana or Paul Ekman are. Is that the thing with the pack of black people thing? If so it is between them and should stay that way.

Let it ride, all the time. And I would never donate money to anything. I used to donate my time helping urban youth learn math but it was a waste. They were all going to the NBA anyway, so they had no use for it.

That's a shame, you were in the wrong urban area..........my primos could use your mathematicas for their taco stands and paleta carts.

Do you bet on any individual sports, and if so, how are they different than team sports? Golf? Tennis? Olympics? Darts?

would you give 100% of the credit for your success to me, or just 95%?

use past historical stats + current stats to create projection for individual players, use some math to get fair line

wnba is awesome. hot women, intense basketball action, energy so thick you can cut it with a knife

nope, i don't think tennis would be much different since there's really only 2 possibilities win or lose (since anything else gets bet returned and isn't that likely to happen). there's some good articles in the journal of sports something or another about modeling tennis but haven't really tried it out much. it isn't that popular in US books and all the good books for it don't like the US. if i had access to betfair i might be more interested

others no idea, guess for golf project what you think everyones score would be, chance of winning based on those scores. i don't know how golf works i guess they just keep shooting and whoever has the best score wins? i dunno. or just go back to 05 and fade tiger ever week. or bet some random asian country in a womens golf tournament at 55/1 and make 30k like most people on here did

darts same thing i dunno the rules enough

how have you not be banned at 5dimes?

how much work do you actually do versus paying peons to work for you?

I'm just considering thinking about sportsbetting for the first time, and its largely in part to your well, so thank you for doing it. Excuse me if my question is completely easy/wronf/irrelevant.

Do you suggest ppl bet in the betting threads on 2+2, or on websites? (If they have the option of doing either). There is no vig on 2+2, but ppl can't really line shop cuz most ppl just bet at the pinny line (I could be wrong on this but it might kinda be angleshooting to line shop and post that on 2+2).

So then how would one get their edge? Would it be 100% handicapping? And is the only real way to handicap through a database,analysis, and modelling?

Any brief thoughts are great thanks!

i don't bet that much at 5d, maybe 20% of my bets. no idea i made decent money there, but i also am a mid sized affiliate for them so maybe that is part of it?

rarely do coding for my businesses. sometimes i'll fix something if its broken and its an easy fix, but i'm pretty bad at the design aspect of websites (images, color scheme, etc.). Just know enough how to move stuff around if I need it.

i've done over 3,000 unique campaigns on facebook and haven't designed one banner or landing page for them. most of my time is just spent managing and thinking of things, then negotiating a rate for work, and doing other things.

i guess i could design a landing page, but even if i get good at it would still take at least an hour. i can pay someone $35 for one and i could make > $35/hr doing other things so i don't feel like its worth my time

i never bet with anyone on 2+2 but every time someone starts a thread here about that someone ends up getting screwed, so might be better to use a sportsbook.

if you're using only one book then it might be hard but line shopping would be your best bet.

Out of all the different hustles you have, which one would you recommend to someone with little to no knowledge of any of them but who has plenty of capital to work with?
