Sports betting.

[K]

...
My big thing over the years of punting has been, yep, Good old lady luck, she has smiled on me countless times. Am I in front over the years... I would confidently say yes, not a fortune, but definitely in front. I've never bet (since I stopped drinking) with more than my budget.
...

Didn't you keep track like an accountant?!

I do! And I assume you do at least now!

I did intermittently.

I don't bet big at all anymore. I do same game multis on AFL matches that I keep a record of, I'm a smidge over $3k up for this season.

Last season was amazingly successful, thanks to the obvious.
I've practically given up betting on horses. Haven't owned one since 2022 and my interest has dwindled since.

I have only just found out that my old man has basically left Mum with nothing (she has the house and a car). He gambled all their savings away. Right up until he went into palliative care, the last things he actively pursued was betting on horse races... his last trip out of the house with Mum was to the TAB.
