Legal betting of NFL is expected to guess $ 30 billion this year

While the baggage in Saturday’s house opener for West Virginia against the Robert Morris football plant (hey, there is no shame in having melodies), the man in the early 20s approached me a certain question.

“Who should I bet I win the Super Bowl this year?”

My answer: “Don’t bet.”

While money breaks through sports betting can be (if done in moderation without chasing their losses or break down in thinking that you can turn a career), raw dollars, red dollars suggest something more than fun. As recently explained by David Purdum of ESPN.com, the American Toy Association expects approximately $ 30 billion for salaries on the NFL in the upcoming football season.

Pro football has become a king of sports betting, which is now legal in 38 countries and Columbia County. Even with only 272 regular seasonal games and 13 postseason matches, it is briefly more than sports with remote seasons.

I’m not antiacting. I ensure that people understand that it is very difficult to convert long-term profit. And that it is very easy to develop an addiction that can ruin lives.

My father was a compulsive gambler who eventually realized the only way to consistent money became a bookmaker. He told me in a very young age, “you can’t win.”

In the old days, you should have found a betting. Today, young men celebrate their 21. Birthdays not buying a beer in the bar (all have fake ID cards), but by downloading the application and rushing easily.

The only light money is the money they all pump into the athlete’s cash register.

I was 20 the first time I entered Nevada Casino. I looked around. I saw how beautiful it was. How expensive seemed to be all. How they gave free drinks. I immediately knew who paid for all that, and who would continue to pay for it.

There is nothing wrong with understanding people. If you have money and if you don’t believe you’re going to rich sports sports, it can improve your game enjoyment – if you enjoy the game for what you are not enough.

So be smart. Be careful. Sports books do not break. The main operations are now multi-billion dollars.

Who do you think they paid for all that? Who do you think will continue to pay?

Just be aware of that before you start turning your own hard earned money in easy money. For them, not for you.
