From one company I made 87000 in 4 months,one of those very lucky opportunities that could of gone either way,I have lost half as much as well on a single punt so its not all straight forward.
On a gamble I took the blackjack table for 60000 aussie dollars one morning,hit the table at 4am sober and left at 6:30 without making a fuss.
We won`t chat about those losses

I had just under 24k invested and it tripled in the first two months,was a make or break for me at the time.
Gambling wise I was never really big into it but used hit the casinos a couple times a month mainly for the social aspect on a weekend or the free drinks but they usually lead you down the wrong road,don`t bother with it here as there not half as much fun.
