Just saw an interesting graph on one of my favorite podcasts.
Online gambling Market (Online casinos, online lottery, online Sports betting) was $34.5 billion in 2017 and is probably going to hit $107 billion in 2025.

Not sure I was wondering the same thing. Might even be just US since all four guys are US based.
Also of note it is forecasted by the graph to grown by between $7-$10 billions annually over the next 5 years.
Crazy money amounts. I don't believe in conspiracy theories but it's hard not to believe the money involved doesn't influence sports results to a certain degree.
When the Dodgers sign a guy for 700 million dollars it makes you wonder for sure. 700 million is just unbelievable, makes me think of this.....

Gotta wonder where this money is coming from for people ro bet with. Is it primarily wealthier folks with disposable income? I'm sure it's a mix, but still
I'm not a gambler but I'd find it hard to potentially throw away even $100 on a sports game with the cost of living these days

Yeah and then said $700 million player throws his gambling translator under the bus, hmm.
I totally missed it, my 3 year quit smoking anniversary was April 2nd. I guess it shows how little I think about it now ha
Took the cover off the car and barked it today, first time since the end of September last year. Looking forward to taking it out maybe next week, roads are in awful shape though.

And that is why you are not a gambler. Haha
My guess is that the bulk of that money comes from people of all income levels who can't afford to lose it.
Even wealthy people become addicted.

I rode my bike for the first time this year on Wednesday. A few weeks earlier than usual.
2002 Camaro Z28 35th anniversary edition.
I dug mine out on April 1 this year and rode it. Because I’m weird and I have a bike journal, my first ride last year was May 1. So a solid month early for me
Not that weird. I have a spreadsheet of my rides going back to 2012. Wait. Maybe I'm weird too?
I mostly use my bike to commute to work. My general rule is to not ride when there are snow and ice still on the roads. I applaud the folks that ride through that stuff but I find the concept of skinny tires on bad roads covered with ice unpalatable.
2017 was the last time I road in March.
Most years it appears I start riding in the second or third week in April. Could have been riding this week but it would only be a week or two earlier than what I consider normal. I expect I'll start commuting by bike next week.

Looking forward to seeing the eclipse today, too bad Ozzy wasn't here.
