I am no good at machines but all you lot seem to win. What do you do with this money? New car? House? Holidays? Save? Or are some of you skint?

Plenty of good players around, but internet fora have always been open to lies, exaggeration and plain bullshit.
ie You could lose six days, go out and have a blinding seventh, and post all about in good experiences, skewing the truth.

Ask anyone in the bookies how they are doing, the answers are always "About even, mate" , a "Few quid up" and very rarely "I've done my wages". It's just human nature.

Hats off to those that can make it pay, though. The rewards now are greater than ever before, but only the best survive.

Most of mine goes on beer, fastfood, taxis, and mainly just lazy things. I've also saved up a few quid.

Great post harry very true.

Iv been looking at my playing lately and sorting my self out coz I have a sunday run that's usually fresh. But last week I was 350 down before it reached sunday (yesterday). I'm cutting my playing during the week because its letting me down. Couple of weeks like this for me and I should be back to having a little bonus on my wages.

What to spend it on though? Iv had 1 holiday this year but I want 3 next year. If I get them are not its a different story. But I like to go out with the girlfriend drinks meals general shopping etc. Just good quality time really.

i spend it all :/
taking the fambo out,
buy expensive branded clothes for me and the tribe all the time,
breakfast in cafe's or mc-d's and take away 5-7 times a week,
new phones all the time, sky multiroom mega bundle
and theres allways a birthday round the corner.

if i wore cheap cloths, drove a cheap car, ate home cooked foods and was happy with freeview, i'd have a shitloads of money saved up :/
unfortunetly i live expensive and have little savings :/

I buy a few DVDs and that and pay for my nights out when I can. But that's normally the most I'm making. I've got into a better rhythm of things now where I have more of Captain Discipline on my shoulder so I can lose about a tenner or 15 when I'm out and about but that'll be about it, and when I make it'll be from £2 to £30 which aint mega money but I can have a few extra things :-)

Apart from the mrs, I have no outgoings apart from monthly phonebill and a £30 weekly rent. Got it easy, so get to save all my profit bar £40 a week. Lucky really... And I know when the time comes when I move out, get a buzzing motor it will be a big shock to my finiancial system.

However, Im one who would prefer to save, go on holidays and spend my dough on the shant than buy a good car and move out. The property Market isn't right to buy atm, and renting is just a waste of money. And as for cars, I prefer smaller shitter motors than a decent one. What's the point in doing all the miles I do, all that parking in small tight car parks in a lush motor... Not for me thanks..

I'll save all that excitement for when I pass 30. :-).

my zafira all sported up, basic 1.8 16v engine only does about 25mpg :/

my audi a4 2.4 v6 tiptronic does 25mpg when flooring it everywhere

just bought a nissan micra for my bird and brother to cruise about getting the kids to school and whatever, does about 50mpg and fits in the tightest gaps.

for some reason i prefer the zafira :/
