What Would Your Eulogy Say If It Could Only Mention Your Betting?

[FadeThePublic]

So what do we do with this information?

We've all written our betting eulogies. They're all depressing.

Do we change or just feel bad?

 

[CoachTony_Bets]

That's the question Fade.

Does this thread change any actual behavior?

Or do we all log off and place bets tonight anyway?

 

[TaffyTipster]

I'll be honest.

This thread has made me think.

But I'll probably still bet rugby on Saturday.

Maybe bet less. Maybe appreciate my family more.

But I won't quit.

 

[SharpEddie47]

Same Taffy.

This thread won't make me quit.

But it might make me miss fewer family things.

Might make me actually be present when I'm not betting.

Small changes not big ones.

 

[Klaus]

Will reduce betting time allocation by 20%.

Reallocate to children's activities.

Symbolic but meaningful.

 

[sportasffgdfg]

Hopefully something like - he enjoyed the games more than the results.

 

[oli_sussex]

Will attempt reconnection with non-betting acquaintances.

Success uncertain. But thread motivated attempt.

 

[ParlayPrincess_88]

I'm gonna try to keep betting as a fun thing not an identity thing!

Like bet on Chiefs games but not make it my whole personality!

 

[DublinDegen]

i dont think i can change... thread just confirmed what i already knew... betting has already consumed me... eulogy is written... just living it out now...

 

[CoachTony_Bets]

Conor please don't give up man.

Your eulogy isn't written. You're writing it right now.

Every day you can choose to write something different.

 

[DublinDegen]

appreciate it tony but feels too late... seven years gone... cant get them back... just have to accept this is who i am now...

 

[Maxriven]

If my eulogy could only mention my betting, it would probably say that I always played with a clear head and never chased losses. That I valued strategy over luck and knew when to stop. Most of my bets were placed on AvaBet - calmly, without drama, and with respect for my bankroll.

That reads like the quiet trophy of a pro - discipline, restraint, and respect for the bankroll.

 

[TaffyTipster]

Conor mate it's not too late.

You're 33.

I'm 41 and I'm still trying to change things.

If it's not too late for me it's not too late for you.

 

[ThePuntingProf]

Conor I am fifty-eight years old and still attempting to change, if I can try to rewrite my final chapters you certainly can, your eulogy is not complete until your life is complete, there is still time to add better chapters even if you cannot erase the ones already written.

 

[ParlayPrincess_88]

Conor please listen to Prof!

It's not too late!

 

[SharpEddie47]

Heavy thread but maybe the most important one we've had.

What do we want our actual eulogies to say?

Not our betting eulogies. Our real ones.

 

[CoachTony_Bets]

My real eulogy better mention my family and my players.

Betting should be a footnote at best.

 

[TaffyTipster]

Mine should mention being a good husband to Bronwyn and good dad to the boys.

And maybe loving Wales.

Betting shouldn't be in top five things.

 

[Klaus]

Real eulogy should mention being present father.

Betting should not be mentioned.

Currently, uncertain which would dominate.
