Hey fellas

I thought this topic may generate some funny responses.

For those of you that dont/cant have a separate account of your own (separate to your spouse) to funnel spare cash into for funding your punting habits, what are some of the ways you generate cash to pay for it?
I'm willing to bet a popular one is searching through your hoarded crap in the garage to sell on Facebook marketplace if it brings you $100 here and there.
Buying a tool you dont need from bunnings then selling it after one use?

TAB account is good but you can onloy withdraw what you have bet and won back. If you have a good return e.g. on a Saturday afternoon there's no need to withdraw it all at once - leave it there and operate from the profts uintil you are ready to bet again.

was matched betting for me for a while. promo banned at most bookies now. have heard its not so good any more, and i dont think its as easy as people like to make out, but theres still money to be made if youve got a fresh set of accounts

Take cash out when using eftpos, it doesn't show up as a withdrawal will be included in the whole amount. Make sure you don't have a heap of extra cash sitting your wallet, might be hard to explain.
Open an account in your own name with the same bank, won't be suspicious when you get a new card delivered. Get money deposited directly from your pay, the drop in your pay can be covered by saying you are doing extra super contributions. Statements emailed to your work email address
Start using cash for everything, I have always used cash as I don't like paying fees everytime I use my own cash, when eftpos or banks go down I can still buy things. If you start talking about conspiracy's this will be easier to implement :)

Find a hobby that deals in lots of cash. Collect trading cards or coins or vintage toys. You can tell your wife the psa 10 pokemon card you hold is worth 10k when its only worth $100. She will never know the difference

Idea:

Go Punt Me

An online crowdfunding platform that allows people to raise money for risky & "community-serving" punts. Basically, funding "Take One for the Team" requests.

Suspect that a suspiciously juicy ad on Escorts and Babes is in fact a group of violent, scheming Arabs luring horny old men to knife-point and robbery?

Reckon that abnormally beautiful Thai masseuse with large hands might have something unwanted hiding in her panties?

Want to report back on a particularly, old, ugly, or overweight (or some combination of the above) sex worker few have had the courage to conquer?

Noticed a brothel that looks and smells more like something between a sewer and a dungeon, fitting for only the horniest and most desperate among us?

Post your mission and the brothers can choose to sponsor your adventure.

With AI, we could probably create something like this quite easily...

I like to look it this way:

If I have no way of generating punting funds I will punt less or none at all.

This is a far better option than the stress of trying to find a "creative" way to generate punting funds.

Stand at service station with credit card. Offer discount to someone if they pay u cloae to the amount owing in fuel when they fill up. They pay u in cash and u put the full amount on your credit card. Have to be smart how often its done. But could be made to look like legitimate spending. Just a thought. Never used it. I wouldn't have the balls to do it. Could do same with peoples groceries etc.

Take out $100 cash from atm, buy some technology item for $20 on facebook, tell the wife it was $100, keep the $80

Tell the wife the chinese restaurants you go to don't accept eftpos. Say you spent $15 to $20 on lunch daily. In reality you're eating free food from the office kitchen.

Don't try this one, might get you fired..


I did this 10 years ago on a work trip: I bought food items at a supermarket using cash, took a photo of the receipt, returned the items for a cash refund, and then claimed the original expense on my report.

I do this thing where I work 9-5, then go to the ATM, then I go do whatever the hell I want.

I'd be rich as fuck if I had to tiptoe around I guess... but maybe not, when I ditched the last girl somehow I had more money than when I was splitting living expenses. Make it make sense.

This is a good idea though. Why would you get fired as long as you have the reciept for it, it goes on your FBT anyway so you will get taxed the same

use genAI to make a punting related website (aggregate or roster redo perhaps), put ads on it, post a link to it here on a review and call it a day

Probably only valid in Sydney atm and in some circumstances where you drive for work. Use a ton of toll roads then claim the $50 toll cap refund to go to another account
