Matched Betting Extra Place Horse Racing - January 21 Profits - £4,707 on top of Full Time Job

Hi all,
I thought I would share my profits for Matched Betting Extra Place Horse Racing for Jan 21. January 2021 has turned into my best month of Matched Betting since I started way back in Summer 2018. This months profits are roughly £4,707. A life changing figure for many and a great figure seeing this is achievable on top of a full time job. Matched Betting is the only decent side hustle I have actually found, compared to doing hundreds of boring online surveys...yuck! (Unless you are a good business person / have 5 lodgers / lots of family money etc.) To see some of my other Matched Betting profits you visit my site: https://cashontheside.co.uk/
I will be investing some of my profits this month in ETF/Shares and putting into house improvements like a new drive way. In addition with Cheltenham horse festival coming up in March, I will be increasing my bank to cover liabilities.
The bulk of my profits came from Extra Place racing, large underlayed winners and BOG (best offer garuntee). Variance was certainly on my side this month and I must have had at least 10 large winners which won upwards of £1600 pounds per bet. As I underlay my bets I made more profit than If I had fully layed of the bets. About 5% of these profits came from low risk casino. After you have completed all welcome offers...in Matched Betting. Ep's become a gold mine...and I truly recommend them to anyone.
Some more of my bets this month illustrating underlayed bets and ep:

For those with Matched Betting Experience - my guide and tips to Extra Places:
What is Extra Place Matched Betting?
Extra Places can be a very lucrative technique to learn. Extra Places are available for us to do pretty much every day, increasing the appeal. Extra Place Offers are available to all customers. This means that even if you get gubbed with a bookmaker, in most cases, you can still make money with them by Matched Betting on their Extra Place Offers.
Extra Places are considered an advanced reload offer, as they not risk-free. However once you have gained some experience on more basic horse racing offers, you can start to take advantage of the lucrative profits available. It may sound complicated but as soon as it ‘clicks’, it becomes simple. Essentially we are taking advantage of the bookies and exchanges paying out if the horse you have backed comes a certain ‘place’ in a race e.g. 4th.
Extra Places combined with additional offers such as BOG (Best Offer Guarantee) can mean additional profits. For example, you back a horse at odds of 15 and then the starting odds move up to 23. If that horse wins you win an extra x8 on your bet. You can see some real life scenarios I found of Extra Place combined with BOG below. Depending on the size of the underlay, profits below would range up to £3,000+

What is a ‘place’ in horse racing?

Quite simply a ‘place’ is the position the horse finishes a race in. For example if a horse wins a race it comes 1st, if a horse comes 2nd its 2nd. In some races with a large number of horses some bookies will pay out if a horse finishes the race in 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th position. Horse Racing festivals such as Cheltenham or Ascot are particularly well known for this.

What is an ‘Extra Place’ in horse racing?

Now we’ve understood what a place is in horse racing you may have probably already guessed what an ‘extra place’ is going to be! An ‘extra place’ is where the bookies add one (or more) additional places to their standard place classification on a particular race. For example they may offer to ‘pay 7 places on a race’ instead of the standard 3 places. The ‘extra place’ in this instance cover 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th.
What are my Extra Place top tips?
  1. Some of my biggest profits have come from big underlayed winners and BOG. I typically underlay most of my bets by about 20% sometimes more. If you are starting out I would underlay on the place only by about 10% to play it safe until you learn more.
  2. Don’t bet on more places than a bookmaker is offering. E.g. If the bookmaker is offering 4 places don’t bet on more than that.
  3. Whilst your learning, take horses on implied odds of at least 12 or more on a match of 80%+.
  4. Look to keep qualifying losses down. E.g. for £100 profit, £5 ql.
  5. Please note, the best odds are typically found between 10 minutes up and to race time. You have to be quick on your ‘toes’…learn to walk before you run etc. Start out on easy horse racing officers before doing extra places.
  6. You will need a bank of at least £1000+ for your exchanges, ideally more. The more you have the more of the field you can cover. You can do EP with several hundred in your exchange but you won’t be able to make bigger profits.
  7. Be consistent, don’t take risks, don’t chase your losses and learn from matched betting extra place forums.
  8. Keep the Odds Monkey up throughout the day...and check for good matches.
  9. Use Bookies Boosts to increase your odds and matches.
  10. Do not give in to your fear of missing out on offers…Tomorrow is another day.
  11. Have at least a dual monitoscreen setup. It is important to be able to see exchange, books and calcs.

My take on unpopular cards to make then viable

My take on unpopular cards to make then viable

Hello Reddit,

LOR is an amazing game and I love the diversity and all the cards I can use to create my decks. However, not all cards are created equally and some I believe could use some love.
In this post I will try to share some of my personal ideas for tweaks certain cards could receive that in my opinion would increase their popularity. Please feel free to share your opinion on the comments below.
_____________________________________

RULES:

​
  • No new mechanics.
  • No new cards will be summoned or created by the existing cards.
  • All changes will be thematic.
  • Changes are not aiming in making the cards overpowered. (If they do, that was my mistake)
_____________________________________

OBJECTIVES:

​
  1. Make existing unpopular cards add something to existing archetypes or become build-around for new decks.
  2. Add to the lore and world of runeterra.
  3. Keep the cards thematically the same.
_____________________________________
​
VANGUARD LOOKOUT
. WHY THIS CARD?
Vanguard as a 1|4 has nothing to offer, and even with the Elite tag it does not even make the cut on Elite decks. Cannot block fearsome and have to compete with several other more useful 2 drops.
​
. CHANGELOG:
New effect:
I can block units with Elusive. (Same effect from Sharpsight therefore no coding needed)
​
New keyword:
Tough
​
Stat changes:
Health from 4 to 3
​
. EXPECTATIONS:
With those changes now Vanguard can offer something unique, being able to block Elusives in exchange of tempo and aggression this card can be a good option against metas where Zoe, Teemo or other Elusive units are present.
Having Tough also allows Vanguard to block MF/Scouts, Lucian and Zed. Having Vanguard Lookout in your deck can help you deal with aggression until your midgame or lategame plan comes online.
​
. FLAVOUR:
If we stablish that a unit with "Sharpsight" can block Elusives, and the Vanguard is a literally a lookout. We can assume that he from a advantage point could see Elusive units coming to sneak in Demacia.
If we compare Vanguard with his Freljord counterpart Avarosan Sentry, they thematically serve the same purpose, identify threats coming and help hold them off.
In the case of the Sentry, we can assume that he will attack the incoming threat with all he have, even if it cost his life, and on his drying breath he will alert the village. This is translated in-game as him having 2 attack and draw you a card when he dies, that card being the help that he called for.
In Vanguard's case, he would be the shield that stand between the enemies of Demacia and his homeland. He will hold them off until help comes. That can be translated on my new version as him not letting any Elusive units sneak in Demacia, and survive long enough (Until turn 4 or 5) so heroes like Garen, Jarvan, Galio, Lux comes to his aid.
_____________________________________
​
ARENA BOOKIE
. WHY THIS CARD?
Arena Bookie should be in the core of the Arena Themed (Draven) decks, and I get the idea that if you have Draven's Axe, he would be replenishing your hand, which for an aggro deck is amazing.
But that is never the case, and even if you try to use him like that you would have to wait until you have Axes to start using him, which goes contrary to what you need on an aggro deck.
​
. CHANGELOG:
New effect:
Discard the HIGHEST cost card instead of the LOWEST. Also draws an additional card if the discarded card cost 6+.
​
Stat changes:
Attack from 2 to 0.
Cost from 2 to 1.
​
. EXPECTATIONS:
In deck building you have to always plan around not drawing your combo pieces, and as an aggro player, this is even more important because you need to get your game plan going before your opponent out-value you.
Therefore, the plan is to make Arena Bookie your card that will help you get consistent with your aggro plan. Is okay if you want to end the match with Decimates or Farron, but those cards means nothing if you cannot play your early units.
With Arena Bookie you can have a solid turn 1 or 2 play that will make sure draw your combo pieces before turn 4 and start playing into your win condition. You can always sack him as a blocker if you are getting into late game and don't need the draw anymore.
This card can also help Noxus to add more greedy cards to their aggro playstyle, since you can make sure you will draw the cards you want, when you want them.
​
. FLAVOUR:
Assuming this is Noxus Arena's best or only bookmaker, "Bookie" (Let's call him that) knows how to set matches to get the best outcome for him and his associates.
Therefore, Bookie knows who to put in and when to put them in the arena to get what he wants. He knows that if he throws Draven against a House Spider, no one will pay to see that. People want to see small fries fighting for their lives, before the star can come in and steal the show.
_____________________________________
​
CAUGHT IN THE COLD
. WHY THIS CARD?
Caught in the cold is the ugly sister of the Frostbite family, not even Ashe decks wants it. It came with Sejuani's support cards and on paper should do what Sejuani does. The problem is that Sejuani's effect comes with Sejuani's body and is burst speed.
This card always had some potential, but being slow and costing 2 mana could brick several hands. Also, it requires a lot of commitment and pro-activity, which are two huge downsides in a game like LOR.
​
. CHANGELOG:
New effect:
The effect occurs on the NEXT ROUND START, instead of on the same turn that is played.
​
Stat changes:
Cost from 2 to 1.
​
. EXPECTATIONS:
The idea of this change is to add another layer of complexity to the match. Costing so little, but having the effect come on the next turn could create very interesting plays.
Your opponent have a good open attack next turn? You can finish your round by playing caught in the cold and de-valuing your opponent's open attack. Imagine, you play Caught in the Cold in the end of your turn 5, now your opponent needs to develop into the attack, you Sejuani his best unit, and now your opponent have no good attacks.
You can also use offensively, let's say your opponent attacked this turn and have a pretty good blocker, maybe he is playing a deck with good slow/development punishers. You play caught in the cold and suddenly you made it harder for your opponent to force you to develop into his responses.
You can also use Caught in the cold to force your opponent to spend more mana in one turn, maybe depleting his spell mana, and giving you mana advantage on the next turn.
​
. FLAVOUR:
Caught in the cold sound like something sudden or unexpected, yet is a slow spell in a sea of burst frostbite spells. With this changes, although still a slow spell it cannot be countered on the turn the effect occurs, because during the Round Start phase no one can play cards.
Can be seen as the enemy not paying attention to the signs of a snowstorm or the terrain and when combat is near, that opponent now is caught in the cold, paying for his inaction.
Caught in the cold would be the slowest spell in the game, yet you would need to play around it. You don't want to commit all your mana now, just so your opponent can sneak this card at the end of the turn and you will have to deal with the consequences later.
_____________________________________
​
OVERGROWN SNAPVINE
. WHY THIS CARD?
I remember when this card was announced and not just me, but a lot of players were excited to build decks around this madness. Even meme decks using this card are bad, the concept is fun and exciting but the cost of the card makes it impossible to get the plan rolling before you lose the game.
And even if you manage to make your Snapvines big by buffing it, they can be blocked and do not have any good keywords to give those stats value, and this makes the card even more sad.
​
. CHANGELOG:
New effect:
The first half is the same, but now also GRANT +1|+0 to Overgrown Snapvines EVERYWHERE.
​
New keyword:
Fearsome
​
Stat changes:
Cost from 7 to 3.
Attack 5 to 1.
​
. EXPECTATIONS:
People want to build decks around Snapvine and I believe my changes will enable that. I wanted to give Snapvine a keyword that would allow it to close games, as well as a payout for the deck building cost.
By making Snapvine a 3 cost 1|3 it will begin the game as a very overpriced unit. But if you manage to nurture it, it can win you the game. It would be an engaging mechanic, similar to how Fiora or TF adds to the game, by making you have to deal with their win-con.
You as the Snapvine player, would have to make sure you can protect and spawn more Snapvines than your opponent can kill. You opponent would in other hand try to think of a way to kill all your Snapvines in one blow.
I don't even need to give you deck ideas, cause I think you are already thinking on how to make the most disgusting Snapvine possible.
(PZ to make burst Snapvines? Running Snapvines on your Fearsome/Mistwraith deck as a second win-con? Ditching TWE and getting a new color? Maybe Ionia for denying the opponent Ruination, or their Deny when you go for Atrocity?)
​
. FLAVOUR:
Snapvine just like all other plants, it must grow (is on their name) they actually overgrow.. They will keep growing and if you don't do something about it, they will most likely become unstoppable.
Is sad that something with grow on their name never had a scaling factor, but "Flower Child" and "Fae Bladetwirler" do.
Also, if you look at Snapvine artwork, it screams fearsome, specially if it grows to become the size of a Tank.
_____________________________________
​
CITYBREAKER
. WHY THIS CARD?
Swain is a pretty popular champion, and a lot of players love to find different ways to build Swain decks. But none of them use one of the core supporting card. As a 4 cost 0|5 card Citybreaker have nothing to offer.
If by turn 4 you are not close to leveling Swain, 1 damage per turn is not what you need. If you are close to leveling Swain by Turn 4, you don't need Citybreaker, you are most likely winning without it.
Specially on an archetype with so many great reactive spells, playing this card will only set you behind. The worst part is that for a card with 5 health, you rarely want to block units with it.
Cause you need to stick this card into your board for several turns to make it worth the mana cost.
​
. CHANGELOG:
New keyword:
Tough
​
Stat changes:
Cost from 4 to 2.
Health from 5 to 2.
​
. EXPECTATIONS:
With 4 mana this card was getting into the game way too late to be relevant. My change aims to make this card a solid Turn 2 or Turn 3 play.
For a 2 mana card, if you manage to keep it alive until turn 5 and maybe get a valuable block before it dies, if did more than enough.
If your opponent is playing a slow deck or have no response for it, it can become an actual good pressure tool. Forcing a response for a 2 cost card is really good for a deck that struggles to protect Leviathan and Swain.
With Tough, Citybreaker can survive Avalanche and keep chipping away the opponent's Nexus. Because is so light in mana cost now, it can also be a budget Leviathan if you have a flipped Swain in your hand on turn 7.
​
. FLAVOUR:
Citybreaker should be a siege weapon, that are deployed in mass and their objective is to pressure the opponent to break act, while Swain retains his reactive position and prepare a response.
By making it an early unit, Citybreaker makes your opponent have to act while low on resources. And if they fail to act, Swain can level up way sooner than they expect.
Another interesting point is that Citybreakers are shown to be stronger in numbers and sure enough, for 6 mana you can get the same effect as Leviathan, if you manage to draw all 3.

$700,000 Bet on Fintech - BFT

$700,000 Bet on Fintech - BFT
Alright Degenerates- I posted a small little snippet a day or so ago about BFT. I wanted to do a bit of DD on BFT but also wanted to highlight something that was brought to my attention by a degenerate gambler. Lastly, I wanted to compile some good little snippets that have been put together by some other members as well as from the investor presentation.
Before reading further please understand the major Risks.
  • This is SPAC with ~10.00 NAV, if the deal falls through it could drop to 10.00 USD
  • The warrants could be very lucrative but they can be called and if a deal fails to materialize, these can become worthless.
  • If you're ok with the above risks, continue reading.
Keep in mind that this merger is not complete, but the terms of the deal have been provided to investors and we will be able to either vote yes for the deal or vote no and redeem our shares in BFT for 10.00 cash. So there is downside to this play should the vote not go through or should the two entities terminate the agreement. Right now the downside is ~3 dollars per share according to the close price from today.

MY POSITIONS - Mostly PRPL, PSTH and BFT/BFT.W

The Customers and MOAT

  • Deep Customer Base with deep ties to gambling/betting industry with Deep penetration in Europe and growing customer bases around the world. Gambling is a tricky business and regulated differently than other industries. Many big players have avoided the industry and Paysafe has a great reputation and has become one of the early movers in the industry. The following are some notable customers.

​
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I actually know Paysafe and the usage quite well.
PayPal has many restrictions in Europe regarding iGaming , so does Square.
This is a big play on iGaming for those that aren’t aware.
I was a mid- high stakes online poker player through the 2010-2018. Played a variety of sites. : iPoker; PokerStars, Paddy, MicroGaming, 888, Party. Why so many sites? Because I was always on lookout for where the action was, if a big whale sat down at one online casino; you bet your sweet ass I’m there.
So let me give you my take as a consumer that’s probably spent over $100,000 in transaction fees personally on Paysafe.
This was one of the cheapest and fastest ways to move money around online.
Unlike Stripe this which is against risky business such as CBD and gambling, paysafe is actually one of the leading payment providers in both UK/AUS / Ireland for iGaming.
Big example is William Hill, Bet365, Bwin.
Now why would you want to move money online around as a gambler ?
Well, Visa/MC charge close to 50%->75% more, online casinos = the merchant. They don’t wanna pay that, and in fact put limits on this type of payment processor. (Your visa’s credit cards etc). If a punter deposits / withdraws frequently, the online casino could literally be on the hook for like 20-30% of the turnover throughout the gambler’s period. (This assumes the gambler doesn’t lose all his money per deposit.
Imagine you’re a professional sportsbettor, you’re not loyal to one site. Different spreads / odds are offered on every site, you want to be able to move your money from one to another quickly and cheaply. Arbitrage opportunities do exist in sports betting as bookmakers hedge their books to minimize risk, diff frequencies of bets occur on each sports book; you get the idea.
For recreational punters, it’s simple: some sporting events that are smaller simply don’t exist on one site that exist on another. Eg. Perhaps you using Pinnacle / 10dimes for low spreads on high volume events, but perhaps you want to gamble on live events on bet365 on another day, and bet ponies on Hill.
What if you only have $5000 ? Giant pain in ass to deposit money to each site, paysafe lets you move it around easily.
Should you use visa, you may get blocked from depositing on various sites; Bodog, WHill, Bet365 just to name a few. Withdrawals and clearing deposits with bank transfers or checks takes days-> weeks and gamblers ain’t gonna wait for that shit.
You can also buy prepaid paysafe cards from stores if you don’t wish to use your real credit card; and load that shit up.
One of the biggest markets this is prominent in is South east Asia, they are some of the biggest punters and fucking loving gambling. Looking at you pinoys, Indonesians, Malays. Not everyone wants to fly to Macau to get their rocks off.
As much as this is a play on FinTech, please understand this company has more or less the best Payment service on online gambling globally.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Comparable VALUATIONS

From this chart you can see that there looks to be some favorable multiples that could improve once a deal closes. Also, I'm very bullish on the great Margins as well as the conservative growth. I think Foley along with the growing Igaming undervalues the potential of this company. Just the Draft Kings relationship make me tingle.

​
This is an end to end payment processor with big big big name relationships for very disruptive companies that have huge addressable markets. The reason I am excited is because IGAMING is just really starting to take off and Paysafe is a first mover with brand new experienced management and very very fair valuations that could pop after a merger.
TL;DR- BUY BFT stock and BFT.W because BFT stands for big freaking tenderloins.

This time, the stakes are much higher, with the Lombardi Trophy on the line, as well as potential bragging rights in the battle between generational quarterbacks in Tom Brady of the Buccaneers and Patrick Mahomes of the Chiefs.

Super Bowl 2021: full schedule and TV guide While Covid has forced the NFL to make a number of changes to the usual Super Bowl Week schedule in 2021, most of the usual events and formalities are going ahead in one way or another. Super Bowl Media Day, for instance, became Super Bowl Opening Night on Monday, February 1 and saw select players interviewed over Zoom - not the usual circus that ensues at the start of the week. Here's a complete Super Bowl 2021 TV schedule for the big weekend: Saturday, February 6: NFL Honors 2021 at 9pm ET/PT on CBS Sunday, February 7: Super Bowl LV pre-game coverage from 11.30am ET/8.30am PT on CBS Sunday, February 7: Puppy Bowl XVII from 1pm ET/10am PT (2pm/11am paw-off) on Animal Planet US Sunday, February 7: Kitten Bowl VII at 2pm ET/11am PT on Hallmark Channel Sunday, February 7: Miley Cyrus presents TikTok Tailgate concert at 3pm on TikTok and CBS watch puppy bowl 2021 live stream (Image credit: Animal Planet/Discovery+) How to watch a Puppy Bowl 2021 live stream - and what is the Puppy Bowl? Super Bowl build-up wouldn't be the same without the Puppy Bowl, a pawsome pre-game tradition now in its 16th year - so we're on Puppy Bowl XVII, officially. It sees 70 adorable pups compete in a two-hour long event pitting Team Ruff vs Team Fluff. The event is co-hosted and the teams 'coached' by two of America's least likely BFFs, Snoop Dogg and Martha Stewart. A one-hour long pre-game show will recap the highlights of Puppy Bowls past from 1pm ET/10am PT, while the game itself 'kicks-off' at 2pm ET/11am PT. TV coverage is on Animal Planet, which if you don't have via cable, can be streamed using either the Discovery+ platform (from $4.99 a month, 7-day free trial) or an over-the-top cable replacement service like FuboTV (from $64.99 a month, 7-day free trial). The reason the Puppy Bowl has captured the nation's imagination is that in addition to being so darn cute, it also features adoptable dogs from shelters all over the country, so if you get tired of the usual talking heads pre-game coverage, be sure to tune in! Sadly, the Puppy Bowl doesn't seem to be available internationally, even in countries like the UK where Animal Planet is available.

Following in the footsteps of a sensational performance by Shakira and J-Lo last year that was watched by some 104 million people (and received over 1,300 complaints), The Weeknd has been confirmed to headline the 2021 Super Bowl halftime how. It's expected to go down as the longest halftime show ever at 24 minutes, with Jay-Z and Roc Nation responsible for production of this year's entertainment. For more details, check out our full guide to the 2021 Super Bowl halftime show. Super Bowl 2021 odds and predictions The Kansas City Chiefs are currently installed as the heavy favorites to lift the Lombardi trophy for a second straight season. With arguably the league's most gifted QB in Patrick Mahomes under center, its best TE in Travis Kelce menacing opposing defences, and deadly skill players like Tyreek Hill able to break out for a big play at any time...it's easy to see why. The Bucs are the underdogs, having emerged from the NFC Wild Card picture with big wins over the Saints and Packers to get this far - and few would put another upset past them with GOAT Tom Brady under center. The combination of home field advantage and Brady being Brady somewhat mitigates Tampa's otherwise heavy underdog status, even if the 22,000 fans expected to attended is well below the normal 65,000+ capacity of Ray Jay. Still, while Tampa are a team brimming with the kind of confidence you get when you're led by TB12, most pundits are joining Vegas and the bookmakers in predicting a Chiefs win - though most have it down to be a close game that's likely to come down to the final possession.

My dad is making my life miserable [19M]

I’m new to Reddit and this community so i don’t know if this is the sort of post you all want to see but oh well. This is going to be a very long post so apologies.
So a bit of context.. my mum and dad divorced when I was about a year old and I lived with my mum and her boyfriend and then went to my dads every other weekend, sometimes every weekend. I had quite a tough childhood as my mums boyfriend/essentially my stepdad, basically used to bully me. Was rarely physical but emotionally damaging for me. For example I’d get sent to bed at 5 o clock as a “punishment” for doing nothing wrong, if I came back from my dads I wouldn’t be allowed to speak to my mum and would have to go straight to bed, had my school stuff thrown into the garden and left there overnight. He used to take advantage of my mum being out the house and bully me until I had to ring my dad in tears. I had a younger brother and younger sister and was treated very differently to them as they were his kids, which I believe is this reason he took a disliking towards me. Lots of different things. Either way it was a miserable experience for me and still affects me to this day. When I was 12 my mum was diagnosed with cancer which was terminal however I was never told it was terminal and was always lead to believe that she would survive it. As I was quite young I was naive and wasn’t really sure how cancer worked etc. About a year later when I was 13 she passed away, which was a huge shock to me as I was never told how bad it was whilst everyone else was able to prepare for it. I had to stay with my stepdad for the remainder of my school year which was awful as the bullying obviously got worse now my mum wasn’t around anymore. But once I finished my school year I went to live with my dad and had to move schools as he lived in another city about an hour away.
As I hated my life at home when I was living with my stepdad, I thought this would be a fresh start and I could start to enjoy my life, however, I was wrong. I settled into my new school very quickly, made a few friends but never really felt like I fitted in. They would all go out after school but I couldn’t because my dad was weird about it. This is the first sign that things were going to be tough with him but at the time I didn’t think anything of it. For the first 3 years of school I didn’t see my friends once out of school. I wasn’t allowed to play online with them on my PlayStation as my dad wouldn’t let me. It was at the end of my last school year when I was 16 when I decided I’ve had enough and told my dad I’m going out with my friends whether he liked it or not. He agreed to let me but I had to be back at 6:45 every time I went out (weird I know). He said this was because he cooked dinner at this time and I always had to eat with him. Whenever I came back from seeing my friends I would get interviewed my dad about it, asking me question after question about where I was, who I was with, what I was doing even though I had already told him this before I left. If he didn’t question me I’d get probing questions such as “were you really doing that for that long?” In a suspicious voice. This still happens to this day and i am now 19.
He controls every aspect of my life. I have to do everything with him, I can’t leave my house to go and see friends before about 2 o clock because I was made to eat lunch with him before I could go out. If I wanted to go out after school or college he would often say “only if you walk the dogs first” even though he has been at home doing nothing all day because that’s what he does, he doesn’t work and spends 90% of his life watching tv. Everything was on his terms and I didn’t have a say in anything I did. He decided for me that I’m going to college after I’d finished school and I didn’t even get a say in that. I didn’t want to do that because none of my friends went there and I preferred to do an apprenticeship. But no, it was his way or no way. I was being treated like a little kid and still am to this day. I’m 19 now and I still have to be in at 6:45 as we apparently have to eat together although I’m convinced it’s just an excuse for him controlling me and stopping me staying out late.
I got a girlfriend when I was 17, she’s been my girlfriend for over a year and he doesn’t know about her because of how controlling and weird he is especially about that sort of thing. I had a girlfriend before that briefly and I only told him about her because I had to travel far to see her. And he was very weird about it and almost had a go at me for getting a girlfriend. “Where did you meet her?” In an angry voice. “I want you to focus on college”. Constantly being judgemental about it and made me feel guilty about it. This put me off even wanting a girlfriend for a while until I met my current girlfriend who he still doesn’t know about because of his reaction last time. It bothers her a lot and I know you’ll all be thinking I’m a horrible person for that and tbh I agree because she doesn’t deserve that, but I just can’t bring myself to say it. It sounds pathetic but the fact that I know he’ll react badly combined with my really bad anxiety that I’ve developed over the last few years (mainly due to him), I can’t bring myself to do it. I keep my entire life away from home private from him. If I buy new clothes I don’t tell him because he’s had a go at me for that in the past and made me feel guilty about that before because apparently he should be doing that. And then I get called “sneaky” and made to feel like I’m the weird one when I literally can’t even buy myself some new clothes without telling him exactly what I’m going to buy or he’ll get angry at me. If I go out with a bag I’ll get questioned on what’s in the bag as if I’m some sort of drug dealer, to the point where he was stood shouting at me saying “what’s in the bag” over and over again. To the point where I have to leave my bag outside and get it when he goes upstairs etc just to avoid being questioned. Again this still happens now. He even once quizzed me about why I’d took my bag to work which we literally have to do in case there’s things we have to take home. If I go out with friends or with my girlfriend (he thinks I’m meeting friends as obviously he doesn’t know about her) and I go somewhere different to where I usually go I’ll get a huge lecture about him having to know “exactly where I am at all times”.
I thought all of this would stop when I reached 18 as that is when I became an adult but if anything it got worse. Until recently I would come home from school or college and find the entire contents of my bedroom scattered across my floor with him shouting at me saying my bedroom is “an absolute mess” even though it rarely ever was. This would happen at least once a week and has only stopped recently because we are in lockdown due to covid. I got a part time job last year at a bookmakers as his friend is the manager there and basically got me the job. However all he has done since I got it is make digs at me about it, saying “you don’t want to work there all your life” and constantly criticise it even though it was him who pushed me to get the job. I have a season ticket at the football (soccer for any Americans here, I’m English) and if I had to miss the odd game because of work which I could do nothing about, he’d go absolutely crazy at me saying he’ll cancel my season ticket, make nasty comments about my job etc. For my birthday we would go and choose shoes for example, and if I liked a pair he would look disgusted and say “are you sure..?” And then would pick some other ones out and say “these are nice you’re having these” and not even give me a choice. So I’ve realised he’s very controlling; I think he hates the fact I’m growing up and that’s why he tries to control me. But that’s not all.
He’s also got more and more toxic towards me as I’ve grown up. I do a lot of chores around the house, more than anyone I know. Which on its own is understandable as it’s just me and him, he doesn’t have a wife or partner. So if I’m asked to do things I will always do them without any complaints. However I’ve spoke to my friends and girlfriend about it and they all can’t believe how much he makes me do. All of the horrible jobs such as clearing dog poo out of the garden are assigned to me as he does all the nicer ones. I do that, I mow the grass at the front and back every single time, he never does it. I clean the bathroom all the time, I vacuum, I offer to help cook every single night, I clean the kitchen after he’s cooked and more. This might not seem like a lot but when I have had a 11 hour shift for example at work I will come home and he’ll make me do something that he would usually do just because he can’t be bothered such as take the dogs a walk. Which I really don’t want to do after a long shift. I wouldn’t mind if he’d been busy but he’ll have done absolutely nothing all day. It gets to the point where he’s using me to do jobs whilst he does very little. And the worst part is that he’s started these random outbursts on me for no reason. He’ll have nothing to be angry with me about so he’ll just use a standard line.. “YOU DO NOTHING AROUND THE HOUSE. I DO EVERYTHING” which actually just blows my mind because I do way more than he does. And I will tell him that I do loads around the house and he’ll go “but you could have just done .......” and pick something random as if I’m supposed to have read his mind and known he wanted me to do it. I’ll say why didn’t you tell me to do it then and he’ll shout “I SHOULDN’T HAVE TO ASK”. This argument has started to happen about once week. I have suffered from depression over the last year or two, especially a few months ago when we first got quarantined and weren’t allowed out the house. And I genuinely believe this is largely down to him and how he treats me. There was one day in particular that I remember where he was having a go at me about everything for no reason when I already felt depressed, to the point where I had a massive breakdown in front of him. I thought this may change how he acts with me but a few weeks later and he goes back to his normal self. I can’t even get changed in the morning without him smashing the dishes around and shouting at me for doing “nothing around the house” just because he’s decided to do the dishes when he knows I haven’t even been downstairs yet. I think he does it deliberately to give him a reason to shout at me. Although I do feel depressed sometimes, it comes and goes, I’ll feel very depressed for a few weeks and then feel okay for a few weeks, it’s my anxiety that remains really bad. I was always a shy person but not anxious to this extent. When I wake up I feel anxious to even go downstairs in case he starts on me. If I come home from being out I will feel anxious as soon as I leave to come home. I find myself literally shaking because of my anxiety around him. He makes me feel so uneasy. I can’t have a normal conversation with him about anything, can’t have a joke with him in case he reacts badly. He’s in what seems like a constant bad mood with me, every conversation we have has to be formal. I’m not allowed to swear or even say words such as “crap”, whilst he swears a lot. The only time I don’t feel anxious is when I’m with my girlfriend or my friends and even then I worry that he’ll call me and ask what I’m doing. I even can’t wait to go to work some days even though it is really boring, because I want to get out of the house to relieve my anxiety. Now we’re in lockdown it’s even worse as I can only leave the house once to go for a walk, and I can only be out about an hour or he’ll start questioning me and saying I’m being sneaky. He doesn’t respect my privacy at all, I don’t feel like I have any time to myself and it’s really starting to impact on my mental health. I can’t play on my PlayStation with my friends until he’s gone to sleep because he shouts me to go downstairs every 10 minutes to “help” with something and then I won’t even have to do anything and will just stand there. Or I’ll have to go and look at a new car he wants even though he knows I’m not interested. He doesn’t give me any time to myself at all and at 19 that really pisses me off. He treats me like a kid and I’ve been an adult for over a year. I constantly feel like I’m treading on eggshells around him, he’s so passive aggressive and childish it’s actually embarrassing. I find him pathetic if I’m being honest.
He’s also very narcissistic I’ve noticed. He has to have “the best” everything. Even if he’s struggling for money he’ll choose to buy a new car rather than focus on saving money. I have had barely any money spent on me since I’ve lived with him at all, yet he’s spend thousands and thousands on himself. Now I’m earning money he regularly asks to borrow money of up to £5000 so that he can pay his credit cards off because he’s got himself into a mess financially because he spends so much money on silly things such as a £700 coffee machine. Lol. Oh yeah, and probably the worst thing of all, his dad left me £20,000 for me when he died in his will, for my dad to give me to me for him when I turned 18, for a new car or University fees etc. However, my dad spent every single penny of it on new cars and things for him and acts like it’s not a big deal, and always says “you’ll get it eventually” even though I know I’ll never see it. Which I believe I could take him to court over but I never would unless our relationship broke down massively or I needed the money.
Sorry for the really long post, if anyone has actually made it this far then I appreciate it a lot. I just don’t know what to do. I’ve even considered therapy due to my mental health. I don’t feel like I can speak to him properly about anything, he’s never acted like a father to me but more of a stranger who just happens to live with me. So it’s not like I can just talk to him about this because I really don’t feel like I can. I’ve never had a personal conversation with him in my life. I bottle up all of my feelings and the only person I can speak to on that level is my girlfriend. I really don’t know what to do because I am sick of living here and would move out if I had enough money. I don’t have a family at all really so staying with them wouldn’t be an option.
I really just feel like I need some proper advice on what to do because my mental health is suffering a lot because of him.
Thanks for taking the time to read this, would appreciate constructive and helpful feedback rather than judgemental feedback👍

Over the course of Mr. Davey’s career, he oversaw more than ten mergers and acquisitions and over $1.2 billion in debt and equity capital raised to support the companies he has led.
Most recently, Mr. Davey was Chief Executive Officer of SG Digital, the Digital Division of Scientific Games Corp. (“Scientific Games”) (Nasdaq: SGMS). SG Digital was established following the purchase by Scientific Games of NYX Gaming Group Limited (“NYX”) (formerly TSXV: NYX), where Mr. Davey served as Chief Executive Officer and Director. The NYX acquisition provided Scientific Games with a vehicle to significantly accelerate the scale and breadth of its existing digital gaming business, including the strategic expansion into sports betting. In his capacity as Chief Executive Officer of NYX, Mr. Davey developed and implemented a corporate strategy that generated strong revenue growth. Mr. Davey shaped company strategy to focus on digital gaming supplier platforms and content that provided various gaming operators with the underlying gaming and sports betting systems for their online gaming business. In 2014, Mr. Davey oversaw the initial public offering of NYX, and his experience in the digital media, sports, entertainment, leisure and gaming industries helped NYX recognize momentum as a public company. After the public offering, from 2014 to 2018, Mr. Davey oversaw seven acquisitions which helped establish NYX as one of the fastest growing global B2B real-money digital gaming and sports betting platforms. These acquisitions included:
• OpenBet: In 2016, NYX completed the $385 million acquisition of OpenBet. This was one of the more complex and transformative acquisitions that Mr. Davey oversaw at NYX. Through securing co-investments from William Hill (LSE: WMH), Sky Betting & Gaming and The Stars Group (formerly Nasdaq: TSG, TSX: TSGI), Mr. Davey was able to get the acquisition from Vitruvian Partners completed successfully, winning the deal against much larger and well capitalized competitors. By combining two established and proven B2B betting and gaming suppliers, NYX was well positioned to provide customers with exciting player-driven solutions across all major product verticals and distribution channels. This allowed NYX to become the leading B2B omni-channel sportsbook platform in the market and the supplier to over 300 gaming operators globally with an extensive library of desktop and mobile game titles, including more than 700 on NYX platforms and more than 2,000 on the OpenBet platform.
• Cryptologic/Chartwell: In 2015, NYX completed the $119 million acquisition of Cryptologic and Chartwell. The acquisition provided NYX with more than 400 titles of additional leading gaming content, a broader customer base, and direct exposure to PokerStars and Intercasino, part of the Gamesys Group (LSE: GYS) — two of the world’s largest online casino offerings.
• OnGame: In 2014, NYX completed the distressed acquisition of OnGame, a premier poker content, platform and service provider. This acquisition provided NYX with one of the best poker products in the industry, access to several regulated jurisdictions, and a valuable talent pool that was instrumental in the growth of NYX. The addition of OnGame further established a path for NYX to continue its growth in both European and U.S. markets.
These acquisitions, together with meaningful organic growth, increased NYX’s revenue from $24 million in 2014 to $184 million annualized in 2017. During that time, Mr. Davey helped build NYX to have over 200 customers in the global gaming industry and a team of 1,000 employees. Mr. Davey’s success at NYX ultimately led to its sale to Scientific Games for $631 million in 2018.
Mr. Davey joined Next Gen Gaming, the predecessor to NYX, in 2000 as the Vice President of Technology, was appointed as Executive Director in 2003 and named Chief Executive Officer in 2005. Prior to that, he was the Senior Consultant for Access Systems, a company that specializes in the provision of back-end software for licensed online casinos. Prior to joining Access, Mr. Davey worked for the Northern Territory Government specializing in matters pertaining to the internet and e-commerce along with roles in the Department of Racing and Gaming. Mr. Davey received a Bachelor of Electrical & Electronic Engineering from Northern Territory University, Australia (also known as Charles Darwin University).

Mr. Chhabra has been at the forefront of corporate acquisition activity within the digital gaming landscape for over a decade. His prior experience includes leading corporate strategy, M&A, and business development at two of the global leaders in the digital gaming industry, The Stars Group (“TSG”) and William Hill, and a leading supplier, Inspired Gaming Group (Nasdaq: INSE). Mr. Chhabra served on the Group Executive Committees of each of these companies. From 2017 to May 2020, Mr. Chhabra served as Chief Corporate Development Officer at TSG and, from 2019 to August 2020, he also served as the Chief Executive Officer of Fox Bet, a leading U.S. online gaming business which is the product of a landmark partnership between TSG and FOX Sports, a transaction which he led. During that period, Mr. Chhabra led several transactions which transformed TSG into the largest publicly listed online gambling operator in the world by both revenue and market capitalization and one of the most diversified from a product and geographic perspective with revenues of over $2.5 billion. Mr. Chhabra’s M&A experience is extensive and covers multiple global geographies across the digital gaming value chain and includes the following:
• TSG/Flutter Entertainment Merger: In 2019, Mr. Chhabra led the TSG M&A team that was responsible for TSG’s $12.2 billion merger with Flutter Entertainment (LSE: FLTR). The merger between TSG and Flutter Entertainment is the largest transaction in the digital gaming industry to date.

The combined entity includes some of the world’s most iconic digital gaming brands such as Fanduel, Fox Bet, Sky Bet, PaddyPower, Betfair, PokerStars and SportsBet. TSG/Flutter Entertainment is one of the most geographically diverse digital gaming and media companies with leading positions in the United States, United Kingdom, Australia, Ireland, Italy, Spain, Germany and Georgia.
• TSG/Sky Betting and Gaming (“SBG”): In 2018, Mr. Chhabra led the acquisition of SBG from CVC Capital Partners and Sky plc, Europe’s largest media company, in a transaction valued at $4.7 billion. At the time of the acquisition SBG was the largest mobile gambling operator in the United Kingdom and one of the fastest growing of the major operators having doubled its online market share in three years. The acquisition of SBG provided TSG with (a) greater revenue diversification, significantly enhanced expertise and exposure to sports betting just ahead of the judicial overturn of The Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act of 1992 (PASPA) by the U.S. Supreme Court, (b) a leading position within the United Kingdom, the world’s largest regulated online gaming market, (c) improved products and technology as a result of the addition of SBG’s innovative casino and sports book offerings and a portfolio of popular mobile apps, and (d) expertise in deeply integrating sports betting with leading sports media companies, positioning TSG to create more engaging content, deliver faster growth and decrease customer acquisition costs.
• William Hill (LSE: WMH): At William Hill, from 2010 to 2017, Mr. Chhabra served as Group Director of Strategy and Corporate Development where he led several transactions which contributed to William Hill’s transformation from a land-based gambling operator in the United Kingdom to a leading online-led international business. Mr. Chhabra led William Hill’s entry into the U.S. sports betting and online lottery markets with the acquisition of four businesses, including the simultaneous acquisitions of three U.S. sportsbooks, Cal Neva, American Wagering and Brandywine Bookmaking, in 2011 for an aggregate purchase price of $55 million. These businesses ultimately led William Hill to achieve a leading position in the U.S. sports betting market with a market share of 24% in 2019. Additionally, Mr. Chhabra played a key role in structuring William Hill’s successful joint venture with PlayTech Plc (LSE: PTEC) in 2008. The combined entity created one of the largest online gambling businesses in Europe at the time of its formation and led to William Hill’s buyout of Playtech’s interest for $637 million in 2013. Prior to the transaction, William Hill had struggled in its attempt to establish a strong online gaming platform and a meaningful presence outside the United Kingdom.
Mr. Chhabra has also successfully completed four transactions worth over $1.2 billion in Australia, the world’s second largest regulated online gambling market, and various partnerships in Asia. Additionally, he completed several technology and media related transactions, including William Hill’s investment in NYX, where he worked with Mr. Davey on NYX’s transformational acquisition of OpenBet.

My dad is making my life miserable [19M]

I’m new to Reddit and this community so i don’t know if this is the sort of post you all want to see but oh well. This is going to be a very long post so apologies.
So a bit of context.. my mum and dad divorced when I was about a year old and I lived with my mum and her boyfriend and then went to my dads every other weekend, sometimes every weekend. I had quite a tough childhood as my mums boyfriend/essentially my stepdad, basically used to bully me. Was rarely physical but emotionally damaging for me. For example I’d get sent to bed at 5 o clock as a “punishment” for doing nothing wrong, if I came back from my dads I wouldn’t be allowed to speak to my mum and would have to go straight to bed, had my school stuff thrown into the garden and left there overnight. He used to take advantage of my mum being out the house and bully me until I had to ring my dad in tears. I had a younger brother and younger sister and was treated very differently to them as they were his kids, which I believe is this reason he took a disliking towards me. Lots of different things. Either way it was a miserable experience for me and still affects me to this day. When I was 12 my mum was diagnosed with cancer which was terminal however I was never told it was terminal and was always lead to believe that she would survive it. As I was quite young I was naive and wasn’t really sure how cancer worked etc. About a year later when I was 13 she passed away, which was a huge shock to me as I was never told how bad it was whilst everyone else was able to prepare for it. I had to stay with my stepdad for the remainder of my school year which was awful as the bullying obviously got worse now my mum wasn’t around anymore. But once I finished my school year I went to live with my dad and had to move schools as he lived in another city about an hour away.
As I hated my life at home when I was living with my stepdad, I thought this would be a fresh start and I could start to enjoy my life, however, I was wrong. I settled into my new school very quickly, made a few friends but never really felt like I fitted in. They would all go out after school but I couldn’t because my dad was weird about it. This is the first sign that things were going to be tough with him but at the time I didn’t think anything of it. For the first 3 years of school I didn’t see my friends once out of school. I wasn’t allowed to play online with them on my PlayStation as my dad wouldn’t let me. It was at the end of my last school year when I was 16 when I decided I’ve had enough and told my dad I’m going out with my friends whether he liked it or not. He agreed to let me but I had to be back at 6:45 every time I went out (weird I know). He said this was because he cooked dinner at this time and I always had to eat with him. Whenever I came back from seeing my friends I would get interviewed my dad about it, asking me question after question about where I was, who I was with, what I was doing even though I had already told him this before I left. If he didn’t question me I’d get probing questions such as “were you really doing that for that long?” In a suspicious voice. This still happens to this day and i am now 19.
He controls every aspect of my life. I have to do everything with him, I can’t leave my house to go and see friends before about 2 o clock because I was made to eat lunch with him before I could go out. If I wanted to go out after school or college he would often say “only if you walk the dogs first” even though he has been at home doing nothing all day because that’s what he does, he doesn’t work and spends 90% of his life watching tv. Everything was on his terms and I didn’t have a say in anything I did. He decided for me that I’m going to college after I’d finished school and I didn’t even get a say in that. I didn’t want to do that because none of my friends went there and I preferred to do an apprenticeship. But no, it was his way or no way. I was being treated like a little kid and still am to this day. I’m 19 now and I still have to be in at 6:45 as we apparently have to eat together although I’m convinced it’s just an excuse for him controlling me and stopping me staying out late.
I got a girlfriend when I was 17, she’s been my girlfriend for over a year and he doesn’t know about her because of how controlling and weird he is especially about that sort of thing. I had a girlfriend before that briefly and I only told him about her because I had to travel far to see her. And he was very weird about it and almost had a go at me for getting a girlfriend. “Where did you meet her?” In an angry voice. “I want you to focus on college”. Constantly being judgemental about it and made me feel guilty about it. This put me off even wanting a girlfriend for a while until I met my current girlfriend who he still doesn’t know about because of his reaction last time. It bothers her a lot and I know you’ll all be thinking I’m a horrible person for that and tbh I agree because she doesn’t deserve that, but I just can’t bring myself to say it. It sounds pathetic but the fact that I know he’ll react badly combined with my really bad anxiety that I’ve developed over the last few years (mainly due to him), I can’t bring myself to do it. I keep my entire life away from home private from him. If I buy new clothes I don’t tell him because he’s had a go at me for that in the past and made me feel guilty about that before because apparently he should be doing that. And then I get called “sneaky” and made to feel like I’m the weird one when I literally can’t even buy myself some new clothes without telling him exactly what I’m going to buy or he’ll get angry at me. If I go out with a bag I’ll get questioned on what’s in the bag as if I’m some sort of drug dealer, to the point where he was stood shouting at me saying “what’s in the bag” over and over again. To the point where I have to leave my bag outside and get it when he goes upstairs etc just to avoid being questioned. Again this still happens now. He even once quizzed me about why I’d took my bag to work which we literally have to do in case there’s things we have to take home. If I go out with friends or with my girlfriend (he thinks I’m meeting friends as obviously he doesn’t know about her) and I go somewhere different to where I usually go I’ll get a huge lecture about him having to know “exactly where I am at all times”.
I thought all of this would stop when I reached 18 as that is when I became an adult but if anything it got worse. Until recently I would come home from school or college and find the entire contents of my bedroom scattered across my floor with him shouting at me saying my bedroom is “an absolute mess” even though it rarely ever was. This would happen at least once a week and has only stopped recently because we are in lockdown due to covid. I got a part time job last year at a bookmakers as his friend is the manager there and basically got me the job. However all he has done since I got it is make digs at me about it, saying “you don’t want to work there all your life” and constantly criticise it even though it was him who pushed me to get the job. I have a season ticket at the football (soccer for any Americans here, I’m English) and if I had to miss the odd game because of work which I could do nothing about, he’d go absolutely crazy at me saying he’ll cancel my season ticket, make nasty comments about my job etc. For my birthday we would go and choose shoes for example, and if I liked a pair he would look disgusted and say “are you sure..?” And then would pick some other ones out and say “these are nice you’re having these” and not even give me a choice. So I’ve realised he’s very controlling; I think he hates the fact I’m growing up and that’s why he tries to control me. But that’s not all.
He’s also got more and more toxic towards me as I’ve grown up. I do a lot of chores around the house, more than anyone I know. Which on its own is understandable as it’s just me and him, he doesn’t have a wife or partner. So if I’m asked to do things I will always do them without any complaints. However I’ve spoke to my friends and girlfriend about it and they all can’t believe how much he makes me do. All of the horrible jobs such as clearing dog poo out of the garden are assigned to me as he does all the nicer ones. I do that, I mow the grass at the front and back every single time, he never does it. I clean the bathroom all the time, I vacuum, I offer to help cook every single night, I clean the kitchen after he’s cooked and more. This might not seem like a lot but when I have had a 11 hour shift for example at work I will come home and he’ll make me do something that he would usually do just because he can’t be bothered such as take the dogs a walk. Which I really don’t want to do after a long shift. I wouldn’t mind if he’d been busy but he’ll have done absolutely nothing all day. It gets to the point where he’s using me to do jobs whilst he does very little. And the worst part is that he’s started these random outbursts on me for no reason. He’ll have nothing to be angry with me about so he’ll just use a standard line.. “YOU DO NOTHING AROUND THE HOUSE. I DO EVERYTHING” which actually just blows my mind because I do way more than he does. And I will tell him that I do loads around the house and he’ll go “but you could have just done .......” and pick something random as if I’m supposed to have read his mind and known he wanted me to do it. I’ll say why didn’t you tell me to do it then and he’ll shout “I SHOULDN’T HAVE TO ASK”. This argument has started to happen about once week. I have suffered from depression over the last year or two, especially a few months ago when we first got quarantined and weren’t allowed out the house. And I genuinely believe this is largely down to him and how he treats me. There was one day in particular that I remember where he was having a go at me about everything for no reason when I already felt depressed, to the point where I had a massive breakdown in front of him. I thought this may change how he acts with me but a few weeks later and he goes back to his normal self. I can’t even get changed in the morning without him smashing the dishes around and shouting at me for doing “nothing around the house” just because he’s decided to do the dishes when he knows I haven’t even been downstairs yet. I think he does it deliberately to give him a reason to shout at me. Although I do feel depressed sometimes, it comes and goes, I’ll feel very depressed for a few weeks and then feel okay for a few weeks, it’s my anxiety that remains really bad. I was always a shy person but not anxious to this extent. When I wake up I feel anxious to even go downstairs in case he starts on me. If I come home from being out I will feel anxious as soon as I leave to come home. I find myself literally shaking because of my anxiety around him. He makes me feel so uneasy. I can’t have a normal conversation with him about anything, can’t have a joke with him in case he reacts badly. He’s in what seems like a constant bad mood with me, every conversation we have has to be formal. I’m not allowed to swear or even say words such as “crap”, whilst he swears a lot. The only time I don’t feel anxious is when I’m with my girlfriend or my friends and even then I worry that he’ll call me and ask what I’m doing. I even can’t wait to go to work some days even though it is really boring, because I want to get out of the house to relieve my anxiety. Now we’re in lockdown it’s even worse as I can only leave the house once to go for a walk, and I can only be out about an hour or he’ll start questioning me and saying I’m being sneaky. He doesn’t respect my privacy at all, I don’t feel like I have any time to myself and it’s really starting to impact on my mental health. I can’t play on my PlayStation with my friends until he’s gone to sleep because he shouts me to go downstairs every 10 minutes to “help” with something and then I won’t even have to do anything and will just stand there. Or I’ll have to go and look at a new car he wants even though he knows I’m not interested. He doesn’t give me any time to myself at all and at 19 that really pisses me off. He treats me like a kid and I’ve been an adult for over a year. He’s also very narcissistic I’ve noticed. He has to have “the best” everything. Even if he’s struggling for money he’ll choose to buy a new car rather than focus on saving money. I have had barely any money spent on me since I’ve lived with him at all, yet he’s spend thousands and thousands on himself. Now I’m earning money he regularly asks to borrow money of up to £5000 so that he can pay his credit cards off because he’s got himself into a mess financially because he spends so much money on silly things such as a £700 coffee machine. Lol. Oh yeah, and probably the worst thing of all, his dad left me £20,000 for me when he died in his will, for my dad to give me to me for him when I turned 18, for a new car or University fees etc. However, my dad spent every single penny of it on new cars and things for him and acts like it’s not a big deal, and always says “you’ll get it eventually” even though I know I’ll never see it. Which I believe I could take him to court over but I never would unless our relationship broke down massively or I needed the money.
Sorry for the really long post, if anyone has actually made it this far then I appreciate it a lot. I just don’t know what to do. I’ve even considered therapy due to my mental health. I don’t feel like I can speak to him properly about anything, he’s never acted like a father to me but more of a stranger who just happens to live with me. So it’s not like I can just talk to him about this because I really don’t feel like I can. I’ve never had a personal conversation with him in my life. I bottle up all of my feelings and the only person I can speak to on that level is my girlfriend. I really don’t know what to do because I am sick of living here and would move out if I had enough money. I don’t have a family at all really so staying with them wouldn’t be an option.
I really just feel like I need some proper advice on what to do because my mental health is suffering a lot because of him.
Thanks for taking the time to read this, would appreciate constructive and helpful feedback rather than judgemental feedback👍

Looking for a startup idea? Here's a problem to solve.

Hey everyone! I've been really geeking out on finding problems that I think could be turned into meaningful businesses. I'm sharing all my ideas here if you're interested. Here's what I've been thinking about lately -

Keeping track of betting lines is a pain

“I love sports betting but it’s hard to keep track of the betting odds on all the different betting apps. I’ve created a spreadsheet and do it manually, but I still need to search through all the sites to get the information. I’d definitely pay for something that did this automatically.” - Anonymous sports better seeking a solution.
Market Background/Opportunity Size:
Changes in sports betting law have created amazing entrepreneurial opportunities! It's like the goldrush here given how young this market is and how quickly things are changing in the US.
On May 14, 2018, the United States supreme court ruled the federal law prohibiting states from authorizing sports betting, protection act PASPA, unconstitutional. It is now up to individual states to decide if they want to authorize and regulate sports betting in their state. 18 states have fully legalized sports betting with 4 more passing bills just this year to legalize it (they aren’t operational yet).
Even though less than half of the US has legalized sports betting, the market cap was sitting pretty at $104.41 billion and expected to reach $155.49 billion by 2024 (this is an estimate, it was tough to nail down). This market is much larger if you include other global players like the UK, Australia, etc… who have already legalized sports betting. It’s clear that trends for this industry are going in the right direction and there’s still a strong opportunity for the first-mover advantage to take place.
Major Players:
Note: there are over 100 sports betting services on the market
The Opportunity:
As mentioned above, there is a huge problem with keeping track of all the different betting lines that exist - resulting in many people (unsuccessfully) using a spreadsheet. Here’s an article that explains why tracking betting lines is important.
The TL;DR is this, placing your bet on a site that has the most favorable odds results in you getting the highest return on that investment. Most people are doing one of these two things:
  1. Nothing. Rather than checking to see where they can get the best returns, they are just using their core betting app and taking the odds they are given. Depending on the bet size, that leaves hundreds of dollars on the table.
  2. Manually tracking the odds each betting site is offering and compiling the odds in a spreadsheet. This results in a lot of time spent switching between sites and transposing numbers.
Current Solutions:
How to Get Your First 10 Customers:
  1. Define Your Early Adopter: Your TAM is anyone who participates in sports betting, but I’d focus your efforts on finding people who acutely experience this pain. People who are spending a lot of time and money on sports betting have the most to lose. More specifically, hunt for people who’ve already created solutions to this problem themselves - like those using homegrown spreadsheets.
  2. Look for CDIs: When looking for channels to find potential users I ask myself “where do my potential customers hang out?”. In this case, I’d look at online communities like Sports Book and Sports Betting subreddits. By simply asking the question, “How do you track betting lines?” you’ll be able to start conversations with potential users about unmet needs.
  3. Create an Online Ad: I’d next test an offer to see if you can acquire potential users to sign up for your service. This can be as simple as creating a landing page (using marketing language from the conversations above) and run a paid ad to your target audience to collect emails.
  4. Build a Wizard of Oz Test: Now that you have a list from running the ad above, I’d see if you can monetize it. Contact people and charge a small fee to run a small wizard of oz test - you could manually pull lines based on the bets they're watching and send it to them in a daily email. Or, there’s likely a no-code tool you could use to scrape the data from existing sites and organize it for them.
I can see a freemium model working for this as well, so you may not need to monetize immediately. One great option would be to charge the bookmakers a fee for every bet you send to their platform.
Challenges:
Additional Opportunities:
There appears to be no shortage of companies trying to become the next big bookmakers. But, there’s plenty of opportunities this burgeoning market has opened up beyond just being a bookie. With this market in its infancy, you can bet (pun 100% intended) that there’s going to be a lot of room to expand your offerings. Whether it be sports betting tips, predictions, tools or even becoming a bookie yourself, there’s money to be made here.
While doing research on this, I found many people are struggling with keeping track of their bets and recording their results. This could be an easy addition to a solution to tracking betting lines. Here’s what some people said -

Thanks for reading everyone! I'll monitor the comments for any questions and stuff - would love feedback.

HOW YOU CAN MAKE MONEY ONLINE IN 2021

HOW YOU CAN MAKE MONEY ONLINE IN 2021
​

HOW YOU CAN MAKE MONEY ONLINE IN 2021
It seems this pandemic we have been hit with has had a big effect not only in our health but also with our jobs and income, With lots of us now looking at how to make money online and in particular ways to make money at home. Learning how to make extra money online is more important than ever seeing as lots of people, Me included still are not that keen on leaving the house.
Would you like to know how to make extra money online and earn an extra £500 per month on top of your normal wage?
If you are looking for ways to make money at home and in particular how to make money online then this is the post for you.
All of these methods I have used personally and I have always made money from them.
It seems weird writing 2021 but after the year everyone on earth has had in 2020 I think everyone is looking forward to moving ahead. What better way to move ahead than to take on new ways to make money at home and in particular an extra £500 per month on top of your normal wage.
Some of my posts may contain affiliate links. This simply means if you purchase something after clicking one of the links I may receive a commission at no extra cost to yourself. Many thanks for the continued support.
So without further ado lets jump in and see how we are going to go about making that extra money online.
1: MATCHED BETTING:
I have said this before but putting it simply Matched Betting is the number one when it comes to the easiest way to make money at home. If you are not making extra money online by using Matched Betting then you are missing out on some serious extra cash.
Matched betting is the action of placing a for and against bet on a football team or other sport and using this to gain the bookmaker bonuses. It is 100% legal and is netting some people up to £1500 Per month. When looking around for how to make money online this comes top of most google searches.
There is a mom I know on one of the Matched betting forums who is earning approx. £1200 per month from the comfort of her own home while her children nap.
It’s crazy and sometimes I feel people ignore this as they just think it is normal betting or it is not entirely legal but trust me it is.
If you are interested in learning a bit more then check out my guide on Matched Betting, it goes a bit more into how it works. This is my main way of how to make money at home and it has worked really well for me. I even taught a friend how to do it and he now makes around £400 extra per month in his spare time.
Or if you want to start making extra money online straight away then simply click on the banner below to get free access to Profit accumulator a site which has helped 300,000 customers by showing them how to make money online from Matched Betting.
Profit Accumulator literally walks you through each matched bet with full text and video guides to and will have you making extra money online in an hour or so. Check them out.
2: VIRTUAL ASSISTANT
So if you do a search on how to make money online I’m pretty sure that Virtual assistant will be close to the top of the search options.
There is a very good reason for that. We are now living in an ever-increasing digital age and this is getting more and more common especially with the pandemic as companies are working out that it saves them money having their staff work from home.
This also means lots of businesses will need digital assistants or Virtual assistants to assist them with their day to day business needs.
So how do I start making extra money online from being a virtual assistant and what will I need to do?
A virtual assistant could do any number of tasks online such as answering and replying to emails. Creating Facebook adverts, Decluttering emails, Setting up meetings and or organizing an online diary.
There are plenty of virtual assistants who specialize in certain areas and I know of a couple of VA’s that specialize in making Pinterest pins for a blog and scheduling them out.
Assuming you have a laptop or pc and a good internet connection as well as some personal skills such as good literacy, typing skills and organizational skills then you should have the basics to get started.
Rebecca Lake over at Bosssinglemama.com has a great guide to getting started as a virtual assistant as she has great first-hand experience in this field. Go check it out.
3: SELL GOODS ON EBAY
Let me add before I get started that I hate eBay, Don't get me wrong I have made money with eBay and from time to time it is a good way of earning some quick cash but out of all the ways of how to make money online, this is one of my least favorites.
The reason is simply that there are lots of stupid people out there who bid for no reason or argue the item didn't arrive or is not as described and this can be annoying as well as very time-consuming.
Don’t let this put you off though as it may have just been my experience but it’s not for me. However, if you are looking to get started with ways to make money at home then this is a good a place as any.
The best place to start making extra money online with eBay is to have a clear out around the house and get together all the stuff you are probably thinking of just throwing out.
Have a search around the site and see what other people have listed these types of items for. Once you have sold your stuff you can then reinvest that money by buying some packing products off the site and then look for stuff to buy and resell.
Look around at car boot sales and thrift stores to get your bargains and then relist at a profit on eBay, Don’t forget to add the cost of your eBay fees and Paypal fees into the equation. When I first started looking at how to make money online eBay was one of the first places I came to.
4: CASINO OFFERS
Hold on, I’m not suggesting you go down to your local casino. That is not a great way to make money, In fact, your more often than not lose all of your money.
This is a cheeky way of gaining profit from the online casino bonuses offered to new customers. It works in a very similar way to Matched betting in that new bonuses are offered out to new customers and with a bit of background knowledge and trickery, you can obtain most of the profit from those bonuses without losing any money.
It might sound too good to be true but it is from the brainchild of the guys over at Profit accumulator.
Quite a lot of money earned within a day or two.
Simply sign up with Bonus Accumulator, and they will walk you through your first couple of casino offers and then you will get access to their site which includes guides for all online casino offers as well as a very good forum for members.
Sign up below and see how easy it is to make a good consistent profit. When I was learning how to make money online I didn’t have something as easy and accessible as Bonus accumulator. Hit the link below to learn more.
5: PINTEREST VA
As with being a virtual assistant as I mentioned above, you could also specialize in one certain area if you are looking at how to make money online.
Pinterest is essentially a search engine and requires not only great titles and descriptions but also very good graphics and visuals that stand out from the crowd when your potential customers are scrolling through it on their phone.
This is where the problem lies for most bloggers or business owners, we are not overly creative and have probably not used graphics sites such as Canvas before.
Luckily I have used Canvas and have now got pretty good at it, however, in the beginning, a Pinterest VA would have been very handy. A Pinterest VA can not only create pretty pins linking back to your site or blog but also they can schedule them out for you saving you more time to concentrate on other areas.
My advice when trying to start out is to join some blogging groups on Facebook and create a profile. Then just put yourself out there. As a new VA, you could always offer out your services very cheaply just to get some experience behind you.
Kristin from Believe In A Budget has a great post here on how she became a Pinterest VA and how to make money online from learning how to do it yourself.
6: OFFER SITES
OHMYDOSH:
Making extra money online and more specifically making around £500 per month is no easy feat. Offers sites are great at making you £20 here and £30 there but to do £500 per month you will need to combine 2 or 3 of these sites and hit them hard. It is possible though. You can certainly make £250 per month easily.
When looking back at what I did when I was working out how to make money online as I found offers sites and the first one I came across was OhMyDosh.
Offers sites are basically cashback sites that reward you with cash into the account when you sign up for certain things or do simple surveys etc. It is super easy and you can very quickly in one afternoon make a cheeky £50 or so with very minimal effort on your part.
OhMyDosh is one of the easiest offers sites to navigate in my humble opinion. This makes all the difference as well when you are new to the site so I stuck with OhMyDosh for quite a while.
You can sign up here for OhMyDosh if You use my special link you will also get a £1 sign up bonus for free. A nice little start to your profit without having to lift a finger.
Pin This For Future Reference:
SWAGBUCKS:
Swagbucks is a very similar website to OhMyDosh accept it is a little more well known. You simply complete offers and surveys in exchange for Swagbucks which when you hit a certain amount of you can exchange for gift cards etc.
It can get incredibly addictive as Swagbucks have a few daily targets for you to hit and achievements along the way. It becomes your goal to hit those achievements every day.
If you sign up using my Swagbucks Link you will receive 300 Swagbucks for free. What a great way to start towards earning your first gift card.
Swagbucks also have a chrome app button which you can install on your computer which can help you earn more each day giving you greater chances of earning some fantastic gift cards for yourself or your loved ones.
INBOX POUNDS:
Inbox Pounds is the last site you should try in the offers sites. When It comes to making extra money online then combining the 3 offers sites I have mentioned is the best way to maximise your income. Some of the offers will be the same but just skip those and move onto the next one.
Inbox pounds also has a different variant called inbox dollars for our friends across the pond.
The easy stuff is a section that I like on Inbox pounds whereby you can go on and answer easy questions or a simple survey for between 50pence to £1.50. You will be surprised how quickly these all add up.
Dont miss out on making extra money online and earning some really quick cash, sign up using my referral code and start earning now.
7: BLOGGING
Blogging is one of the top answers when searching for how to make money online. Although blogging is not a quick way to make money and it is certainly not the easiest it is one of the more rewarding ways to make money at home.
If you are starting a blog just to make money you need to know that for most people it can be more than a year before they start seeing income and for others maybe less.
It really does depend on how much effort you put into your blog. Take my blog for example. I work really long hours in my main job and a lot of the time I dont work on my blog until the weekend and then I am tired so just dont put too many hours in. It took me around a year before I started earning money.
Other people may put in 4 or 5 hours a day every day and they will progress faster. With blogging though and when it comes to making extra money online with your blog, you need a bit of patience.
If you have a passion for something then it is usually quite easy to turn this passion into a blog. It always helps if whatever you are writing about is something you really enjoy.
If this is something that sounds good to you then I have written a few blogging guides to get you started here. Starting out blogging can be a bit of a minefield so I’m hoping these guides help.
You can start your very own blog from as little as £5.99 per month.
Siteground is who I use to host this blog and I have found them really great to work with. see their link below.
Seeing as starting a blog is so cheap then there is nothing to stop you making extra money online from your new blog.
8: BECOME A PROOFREADER
If you are always looking at how to make money online and keep seeing the same old stuff then try learning about how to get paid to become a proofreader. This is one of those great ways to make money at home by simply using your computer.
Here in the UK I occasionally read a newspaper called the daily mail. I read it via an online app and every single page I read has grammatical errors and misspellings and it drives me mad (Frantically goes back through this post to look for misspellings!!)
They clearly dont have anyone proofread their posts before they go onto the app and it makes me not read it as much. Im sure this is that same for other people.
This can lead to you losing business so paying someone to Proofread emails, documents and other such media can be valuable and companies will pay you to to do this.
Getting started Proofreading is a little harder but I would suggest setting up some profiles on sites such as People Per Hour Fiverr.com or Upwork. You can then offer up your services cheaply which will help if you have no experience.
A lot of proofreading jobs will need you to have a degree unfortunately however there are lots of free courses online to help you get a good feel for Proofreading and can give you some background knowledge.
If you love reading and spot mistakes easily then proofreading can be a great way of making extra money online. Read this beginners guide here and see how you feel about it.
9: TEACH ENGLISH ONLINE
It sounds like you need to go off and get some kind of degree but trust me you don’t. You already have the gift of being able to speak perfect English and if you are looking at how to make money online then that is the skill you can use to do exactly that.
I found out about this when my wife and I were hosting foreign students at our home. We got chatting to them and one group, in particular, said that a lot of the older students already speak good English but were struggling with conversational type language and how to sound more natural which must be an incredibly hard thing to do.
They said that a lot of the students pay up to £20 per hour just to chat to you online and for you to give guidance on how they can sound more natural with their day to day chat. It sounded like a great idea of how to make money online so I got more information from them.
Lots of companies are looking for people just like you to teach their students English and to reward you well for doing just that.
It can all be done from the comfort of your own home with skype or in a zoom type meeting. Make sure to provide yourself with a quiet room and make sure there are going to be no distractions such as mobile phones going off or family members popping their heads in.
So where do you go to find out more information and start making extra money online? Well, Education First is the biggest company and one im sure you will have heard of.
You can build your own schedule although it does have to fit in somewhat with the hours the student is available. You can also teach the same student each time so you can build up a rapport and have a little fun with it.
Click the link above and learn how to make extra money online by teaching students.
10: PUBLISH AN EBOOK
With that handy website Amazon, you can write your own E-book and publish it on their site. The great thing is you dont even need to write it yourself if you dont want to as you can pay people to write it and also get people to design a cover for your E-book as well.
The best way to prepare is to do a search on what keywords are doing well on searches within amazon and then base your E-book around those. As long as you are helping people learn something or solving a problem then you should see sales quite easily.
It might help if you put your E-book up for free for a few weeks to gain some interest and some good reviews before applying a price.
This E-book right here is the perfect example. How to write an E-book and sell it on Amazon step by step guide.
Just remember you do not have to be an expert in something just a little more knowledgeable than your average Joe.
11: FREELANCE WORK
In the current economic climate, we all find ourselves in, it makes sense to look for ways of how to make money online. Freelancing with skills you already have in your day job or skills you have in your hobbies can translate quite well when it comes to making extra money online.
You can create a profile on sites such as Fiverr and Upwork and list the skills you have. You may be able to use a program like Canva really well to create Pinterest graphics or Wedding invites.
There are people on Fiverr who get paid to play video games with lonely people which is a bit weird but shows that if you don’t think you possess a skill then you are probably wrong.
FINAL THOUGHTS ON MAKING MONEY ONLINE IN 2021
This global pandemic has taught me one thing and that is the importance of making extra money online and having a passive income is paramount.

ZigZagSport Welcome Offers and Promotions

ZigZagSport might be considered the newcomer in the online betting industry, but the site also presents two lucrative promotions to ensure you have a rewarding and memorable online betting experience from the moment you make your initial deposit.
The promotions currently offered at ZigZagSport cater to both newly registered customers and existing punters, ensuring there’s something for everyone at this shiny new online bookie.
ZigZagSport online welcomes newly registered customers with a sensational welcome bonus to double your chances of winning big. This will give you the necessary bankroll boost to make multiple predictions on your favourite players, matches, and teams, allowing you to walk away with a sizable profit by merely making one deposit on your account.
Once your deposit is made, don’t forget to contact support, either through email or live chat, as the bonus is not credited automatically.
Once the welcome offer is claimed in full, you will also stand a chance to win big over the weekends thanks to the exclusive Express Race promotion offered at ZigZagSport. This outstanding promotion essentially creates a super-fast express race, containing an increase in bonus odds worth up to 25% on selected sports betting rates. To participate in this promotion, make an Express with a minimum of 3 bets on odds of at least 1.5.
The sensational welcome offer and Express Race promotion are the only two offers currently available on the site. However, if you are looking for the best tailor-made offer for your hard-earned money, you are more than welcome to contact support. Depending on the amount you wish to deposit on the site, the bookmaker representatives are always willing to create the best possible offer money can buy to ensure you have an unforgettable betting experience.
Additional promotions and exclusive offers will also be added to the promotions section of the site in the future, so please check regularly to ensure you don’t miss out.
Please keep in mind that normal terms and conditions, and promotional terms and conditions, apply to every promotion mentioned above. ZigZagSport might be a new online bookmaker, but the site is expanding rather quickly and gaining immense popularity around the world.
