Is Sports Betting a Good Investment?

Is Sports Betting a Good Investment?

Whether or not sports betting is a good investment depends on one major factor, which is if you are the one gambling and making wagers for yourself, or are you the one booking action on wagers for other people? The difference is extremely important because gamblers over the long term always lose money, so if you are the one betting and making wagers then this is not going to be a good investment. However, if you are on the other side of the wagers and are booking the action for people then this will be a great investment and you could easily make a career out of it and make thousands of dollars a week.

Betting for Living

Betting for Living

The typical juice or vig on most wagers is -110 which essentially means you have to pay 10% extra on each wager placed, which is why a winning percentage of at least 70% would be needed to be consistently profitable in betting.
