It Was My Lucky Day
I try not to get off topic too much with my blog posts, but I just have to today. I am all about making money any and every way that I possibly can. Either online or off, if an opportunity comes along that I believe will be profitable, risky or not, I will usually give it a shot. I’m not saying that my life revolves around money, not at all. I just love challenges, and making money online continues to be an excellent adversary.
But back to my story. Since I thoroughly enjoy making money, I have never been one to waste my time gambling it away. Many of my friends love going to casinos and especially laying a few bucks down on the horses. Today, as usual, I was invited to go with a group of friends who love to frequent the local horse track. And seeing that I always have something better to do than waste my hard earned money, something made me say yes today.
So the four of us spent the afternoon watching the ponies run, listening to drunkards who thought they had everything figured out and having a really good time. I have to admit, I had no clue what to bet or even how to bet. But my analytical mind was telling me that I could somehow, someway make some pretty good “educated” guesses.
After 5 races I was up a whopping $26. And all my friends, the so-called experts were down. With race six just around the corner, I did something totally unlike me… I bet all of my winnings on one race. To make a long story short, I hit the trifecta. Basically I had the the top three finishers in the exact order ( the winning horse went off at 25/1). Lets just say that I will now owe Uncle Sam a little more money at the end of the year.
$1436 was the payout. After buying dinner and drinks, I came home with just over thirteen hundred bucks. Not a bad day if you ask me. It will take a whole lot of ad clicks to match that total, but that’s another challenge in and of itself.
Sorry for getting off topic, just wanted to share my good fortune. And no, I won’t be going to the track next weekend. I will be happy here at home with my family and my blogs.
Good luck and much success.
