If I was to tell you that, virtually every day of the year there was a large pot of money out there, millions of pounds actually, just waiting, really, for you to come along and take your share.............you would probably say that I was either mad, lying or trying to have you on, but it`s all true and all you need to do is read what I have to tell you to get in on what is still, perhaps, one of the best known secrets around.......
Back in 2000 the U.K betting industry was revolutionised by the launch of Betfair, the first of the online betting exchanges. It was quickly followed by others, but, because it was first, it still takes the biggest share of what is now a multi-million pound industry.
I have been in the bookmaking industry all my life, taking over the `on course` business from my father after he passed away in 1987, although I had worked alongside him for nearly ten years before that and, all those years have taught me to never be amazed at anything that happens in racing. I have had good days and bad days.......and many, many mundane days inbetween, but, the one thing I can say is that, despite the bad days, and there are a few believe me, being a bookmaker has always provided me with a very good income and a great deal of enjoyment, in fact, I really can`t think of anything that I would rather have done these last 20 years.
When the betting exchanges arrived, initially as I say with Betfair, there was a great deal of trepidation within the industry, (do you recall the Betfair publicity stunt where the funeral procession complete with coffins saying `death to the bookmaker` passed through the City of London?) a lot of bookmakers feared that it would spell the end of the bookmaking industry as it has been known for over 50 years. I didn`t personally share this viewpoint and, although the exchanges are still pretty much in their infancy, I think I`ve been proved right. There is little doubt that exchanges have probably had an adverse effect of some sort on high street bookies, but having said that, the same high street bookmakers were happy and, indeed, found it essential to set up web sites and move business on line anyway, so, the closing of a number of shops was always going to happen, even without the introduction of the exchanges. As for on course bookmaking, well, I certainly haven`t seen any downside, in fact, in the last two years, quite the reverse.......business is booming! Not only that, I think time has proved that the traditional bookmaker and the betting exchange can work alongside each other.
What I did see, instantly, was a great opportunity to make a very large amount of money, without doing very much at all, in fact, here was, I thought, a great retirement fund for me, a chance to really secure my future. True, I was making a good living already, but suddenly, the exchanges opened up all sorts of exciting opportunities, especially with the knowledge I could call upon from my connections within the racing industry.
What the exchanges did, for the first time, was allow the punter to, effectively, become the bookmaker. Now, without specialised knowledge, this is a practice fraught with danger. I would NEVER lay a horse to lose on the exchanges without having inside knowledge that the horse WAS going to lose.........the downside is too great to even consider, and I could see that just anyone doing this was leaving themselves wide open to disaster and, I know of a good few people who thought they too saw the opportunity that I did...........and promptly fell headlong into the traps that they either hadn`t seen, or had conveniently chosen to ignore.
It sounds very odd, given my profession, but betting, or gambling, has never interested me, I don`t really gain any satisfaction or any adreinelin buzz from taking risks, I ONLY gain satisfaction from making money, and here was my BIG opportunity.
I knew that, through my connections, I could come up with, probably up to, maybe, ten horses every single day of the week that I would be totally, absolutely, 100% confident would NOT win, but, when I started out this "little" venture in 2000, I began by laying one horse per day that I knew was not going to win and, to this day, I have kept to that format, just one lay to lose each day. The reason for this partially, is that I like to place my lay just before the start of the race (oddly enough, not something that I really recommend doing but I`ll explain more later) and, if I`m on course, as I usually am four or five days per week, then it is a little difficult and distracting. The other reason is that, part of my make up involves the old theory, "if it isn`t broken, why fix it", it works perfectly for my needs, and I`m perfectly happy with it, why shouldn`t I be?
It`s risk free money accumulation and has already provided me with a pension fund that, six years ago, I couldn`t really have dreamt about.
Now, fast approaching the grand old age of 50, I plan to continue on course for another four years, (simply because I still enjoy it so much) then, the exchanges will be my full time career.
So, I hear you asking........why are you telling me all this?
Well.......I have been running my Betfair activities, basically, from the outset of the exchange and, to begin with, I was so very sure that I had the knowledge, and the connections that I could earn, if not vast sums, then certainly very nice profits from this venture that, really I just wanted to keep it all to myself, as, I suppose anyone would........after all I had worked hard to build up my contacts and, in all respects, it was MY secret and, as I quickly discovered, it was about to make me considerable profit......
.....and, in any case, why SHOULD I share this with anyone?
As things turned out, a couple of years down the line, by 2003, I decided to allow a few very close friends in on my success, and they became involved in what I achieve on the exchanges and, they too, all now make huge profits, in fact, two of my closest pals make more money than i do from the exchanges.......using the information that I supply them with.
Generous?, yes...........but for me, my friends are very, very important, as are my two sons, who also do extremely well from my influence within the racing industry.......
NOW.......and this is where it all starts to get really interesting...... I AM LOOKING FOR A FEW PEOPLE TO JOIN ME!!!
Up until now I have only let a few select friends and family members in on my daily selection, but now, for the first and ONLY time, I am going to invite the first 100 people to contact me to subscribe to receive my selection by way of a daily email. Once the target of just 100 has been reached, the book will then be closed, and thereafter, the only way to gain a subscription will be to wait until someone drops out of the service, IF indeed anyone does. I`m sure that if I were offered a subscription into this service, I would NEVER want to leave it.
You will receive the SAME horse that I will be laying to lose EACH DAY, please don`t think that I will be passing the name of one horse to you and then laying something entirely different myself. Also, the results are always published on this site the same day, so you can see for yourself.
And the cost of this subscription?
I thought long and hard about this. I have seen betting tipsters offering their services at up to £150 per month, for what I would consider to be a very moderate success rate. I certainly would not use them. I am not looking to rip anyone off, or to make any major profit from this subscription. I will be employing a lady to run my small office and to get out the email each day and, so long as the total subscription covers my costs in paying her wages and the rental of the office then I am happy. Therefore I will be charging a sum of £30 per calendar month for a subscription into this service, which, the more I think about it, the more ludicrous it appears.........that works out at just £1 per day, for information that could, and will, make you the same money as me.
£30 per month, or £1 per day.......... thats what preciscely?
A newspaper and a cup of coffee, if you`re lucky.
Half a pint of beer?
Five cigarettes?
Half a sandwich, maybe?
A stab at the lottery at odds of around 14,300,000/1 (not my idea of decent odds)
........or a daily email, giving you the name of the same horse that I will be laying to lose, which will make you vast amounts of money, in fact, almost limitless amounts, because how much you choose to make is entirely that........YOUR CHOICE!
As I said just a little earlier, two very close friends of mine actually make MORE than I do, using the information I supply.
For now though, I am quite happy with what I make from this `part-time` venture.
Maybe once I give up the on course activities, I will increase my input considerably, well, in fact, I definately will increase my input, but, for now, I`m happy with how things are.
How can YOU possibly pass up the chance to earn cash so simply?
Two minutes per day at the most, thats it............. from home, work, or anywhere you can get to a computer to place your lay on the horse I`ve given you by email that morning.
As for the price.......well, the more I think about it, the more I realise how much I`ve undersold it...........£30 per month, £1 per day, I ask you!!!
Once you join up you will agree that this was the best move you have EVER made, the only point I would add though is, be quick. I am absolutely that this will be fully subscribed within a VERY short space of time and, as I say, the only way then in, is to wait for someone to leave.........and I KNOW that won`t happen very often.
Click on now to the next section entitled `Laying to Win`, where I will explain a little further on the concept of `laying` horses, explain exactly how to join up, and also show you some quite mind boggling figures.
