Investing in season tickets for sports. Casino gambling. Those are just some ways to make money without getting out of bed in the morning. I am very lucky and I have been very successful in all three of those and continue to do well. In this article I am going to teach you some ways to spend money to make money.

These ideas are ones that you can’t learn from the teachers from Menlo College because you know what they say, experience is the best teacher. Remember, if you are not a risk taker then this is definitely not for you. The hardest part of all of this is getting started because that’s when you need start up money especially, when you’re buying season tickets for professional sports. Nothing cheap about season tickets for a professional sports team, that is that unless your Investing in a bad team.

 Investing is one way to get checks in the mail every week or month without doing anything, but make sure you do research on what you’re Investing and never take someone’s word on anything, and always follow your gut feeling. If something sounds to good to be true, then it probably is.

Investing is very different and a lot of work compared to the other two options. Unless you know what you’re doing then I would stay away from Investing unless you have done your homework.

In my opinion, sports season tickets is the best way to get money in your bank account without even lifting a finger because everyone loves going to sporting events if the price is right. People today people buy tickets off websites and pay more then they should because of the website fees, but if you’re a season ticket holder you only pay face value of the ticket meaning you don’t pay anything else but they ticket itself.

I am a season ticket holder for the SF Giants, Oakland Raiders and Golden State Warriors. In addition to the job I already have this is my second job and I can do it all online. I will give you an example. Face value on my season ticket is $120 but on StubHub my exact seats are going for $600 a ticket and they are selling. So I sell my tickets online for $300 or $400 per ticket because who doesn’t want to save money? The more money you put into sporting events the more you get back into your pocket. Buying season tickets for a bad team you will only get a few dollars back. So pick a good team and good seats and you will see why it’s a good thing to become a season ticket holder.

           

Last, but not least. Casino Gambling. Unless you know what you are doing or have an idea about the game you’re playing I would stay away from this because this can get very dangerous. As a blackjack player, I know I can’t win every hand so that is why you need to spend money to make money on this one.

There are many things about blackjack people don’t know and with some of the tips and tricks I know, you can be successful at Casino Gambling like I am. Keep in mind gambling is 80% luck, 20% skill. Playing two hands uppers ups the chance of winning or getting your money back. Double down and slipping is a great way of making more money even tripling your investment all in one sitting. Take your time and don’t get mad and defiantly don’t listen to the other players at the table. Play how you want because it’s your money, not theirs
