People of Mayberry:

When I retire from deputy sheriff in Mayberry, I want to take Thelma Lu to a nice
paradise outside the U.S. and retire there. Does anyone know of anyone who is making a living from the sports books by betting and not by selling picks? Is it possible to retire to another country using the sports books for income? I am serious and need answers to these questions. Is anyone on this forum making a living from betting alone and not from a web site income or selling picks?

Can you? Probably not.

Do people, yes. Do people that also visit this site, yes.

Aw Andy.... You need to have more faith in ole Barney. If I can not as you say, then what do I need to do in order to make a living from sports betting? By the way, I just found this web site address on this forum:

You could start by taking shit seriously and not saying idiotic stuff like people of mayberry and signing your posts barney.

It's very difficult to make a living betting sports, as that site you referenced will tell you. There is a lot of math, a lot of analytics and most people don't have the mind, the discipline or the determination for it.

By the quality of the 8 posts you have made on this forum to date I would say stick with your day job, whatever that might be.

You need two things to have any chance of succeeding and be able to make a living. A good size bankroll and money management and with out those two you have no shot.
