Got a door dash 2 weeks ago. The guy needed to pick up the food and drive 2 mins to my house. Windows maps opens up on checkout so you can GPS track the delivery. They've now added a chat function so you can say stuff like "don't ring door bell, baby sleeping" etc.

I have the default setting on "leave at door". When he stops outside he contacts me through that chat box. His name was Hasseem Habeeb no joke. The message was "I'm outside brother, can I have tip plzz".

There's no way in hell I'm tipping him for that and would give him a slap before a tip for being so forward. But just think, if he copy pastes that to every order...a certain % are gonna feel obliged. So maybe they make very decent tips and more than we think.

Can't blame him for trying, maybe 20 deliveries per night and he's gets a few suckers I suppose it might add up. I'm like the guy from Reservoir Dogs when it comes to tipping however so he's be shit out of luck.

This combined with the tipping comments seems we're two birds of a feather. Haha nice. Last week got some magazine sent to me by mistake, meant to go to the next street. Was called "Director magazine" or some bs like that. Anyway the cover story was "Is ESG dead?".

I chuckled to myself thinking how early we are in all these commodities and precious metals if the sheep are still thinking about ESG. I guess I'm also a zealot as whenever I hear green this carbon that, I buy more coal stocks as a natural reflex action.

I would've opened the door and said "you wanna tip Hasseem, Go have a fucken shower and slap on some deodorant"

So every week they have a promo that goes "place a Same Game Multi with odds of at least 2.00 on this AFL match and if it loses get your stake back up to $50".

So I place a SGM that I think has a high chance of losing like the underdog to be winning at both HT and FT. Then I jump over to betfair and lay that same outcome on the HT/FT market for a guaranteed small loss whatever the outcome. Let's say $2.50 loss.
That's called the qualifying loss.

Now the match ends and the underdog didn't win and we lost out 50 stake in bet365 but made 47.50 in betfair. We are -2.50 so far but we now have a 50 bonus in bet 365 so we effectively paid 2.50 for a 50 bonus.

So with that bonus I can either bet it on a horse and lay that horse off on betfair to make about $40 cash guaranteed OR I can bet it on a sport multi and risk it.

Say I bet it on a multi with 4.00 odds for a profit of $150 - I just risked 2.50 to make 150 ...see how I'm not really risking my cash now?

As to your question of where I'm getting the bonus from:

Bet365 has this promo every week. 50 back on NRL 50 on AFL 30 on EPL and 30 back on a Saturday race. That's 160 a week just from bet365 which can be turned into really good profit.

That's only one bookmaker though. I'm signed up to dozens and they all have various promos like this that can be taken advantage of. Not to mention welcome offers that don't even require a qualifying bet - they just hand you the bonus on deposit.

Just this week a book I have been a member of for years gave me a 200 bonus bet on deposit to promote their new site revamp. There's heaps of em that will just email you a bonus after a period of inactivity to get your business back.

The key is to not look like you are matched betting and to make mug bets to appear like just a run of the mill losing sport bettor.

Hope this helped you to understand better.

this is great - its arbitrage.

Thank you for the tangible information 🙏 I've been looking into this and already made a little bit from introductory deposit match bonus bets.

One question, though, regarding the "place a same-game multi and if it loses get your stake back in bonus bets" promos. How do you lay a multi off on Betfair? A standard bet has 2 outcomes which is easy to lay off. But a 2-leg multi has 4 possible outcomes, a 3-leg multi has 8 possible outcomes, etc. For a 2-leg multi, how do you lay the other 3 outcomes off in Betfair? For a 3-leg multi, how do you lay the other 7 outcomes off in Betfair?

On your second point, guess what I do full time? LOL Buy gold miners before PMI

Sorry I'm not too familiar with commodities but in this instance are you actually day trading or more so medium/long term holding? I've got a small part of crypto/shares etc and got an investment property but now feel like I'm capped from buying more investments because it's limited by my income not exceeding my mortgage by enough. I'm trying to figure a way of trading something to actively compound and keep building.

Firstly Ignore the 3 leg ones as they're harder to lay.

Now with the 2 leg ones I simply use the SGM to make a market that is layable on betfair single markets.

Example 1. Instead of betting on the HT/FT market, I place a SGM of team A to win half time and team A to also be winning at full time (ie 2 separate legs). Then I go to betfair and lay the HT/FT market.

Example 2. For soccer I place a SGM of Team A to win and total goals to be under 1.5 in the match. Therefore the only possible outcome for it to win is 1-0. I simply go to the betfair correct score market and lay 1-0.

There are more ways you can also play around with the markets so that you can use a SGM to mimic a standard traditional market and then just lay that market on betfair.

I do dog sitting, dog daycare and dog walks. Earned 25k last financial year. Sometimes have multiple dogs. Owners drop them off and pick them up. I just have to hang out with them. Helps when you love dogs and deal with lovely owners. Easy easy money.

Disclaimer; I've been at this full time for about 12 years (many hard lessons learnt) and don't recommend you try any of this unless on a paper account because it can be high risk.

I have 4 accounts. I strategy each.

Option Trading account used to write options and position trade. (google the wheel strategy) - I use mining stocks to do this as they have higher implied volatility so the option premiums are high.

CFD account used to trade futures and stocks. This is short term swing trading to catch anticipated moves. Here I'll trade gold/silver futures (the actual price of the metals) and ASX stocks long and short. Not for holding for long periods.

Crypto wallet. I just buy BTC and nothing else on an exchange send it to the wallet and that's it. Accumulate on dips if possible.

Last account is just long term buy and hold where I drip money into ETFs of stocks I wanna hold onto for decades.

The first 2 are to generate income and the second 2 are where that income gets fed into.

If you know anything on electronics and tech, prowl facebook marketplace and look for people who are selling things for a steal, then flip it for its actual worth. There are quite a lot of people on Facebook mp who wanna selling things at a loss for a quick buck.

I agree on that, especially if you know how to repair electronics.

It takes a couple of months to get your bearings, but once you have your region down pat, know where all the restaurants and shops are, work out the parking situation, you should be getting between $32--$35 and hour. You have to pay tax of course, but if you have a newish car then the tax man is considerate. Some evenings can be a walk in the park, others can be a pain in the arse. Good promos on and you can nudge $40 an hour.

Yeah but thats also deductible. Most casual jobs that you talk about require you to be somewhere at some time. I can walk out the front door jump in the car and earn whenever I want.
