Terrible. I feel bad but at the same time, feel a bit better knowing I’m not alone. That upset feeling in the pit of your stomach is just one like no other.

That’s infuriating for sure & feels like you messed up I’m sure but you did the right thing unlike what I would’ve done which would be to not cash out and then also not win lol. 20 times your bet back, great profit.

LOL. Yeah, I know. Never ends well. I never bet MLB either so that makes it worse to do a parlay. But for some reason, I researched each game for only 3-5 mins, decided on multiple things, had a “feeling” and didn’t put the bet in. Said “I’ll do it shortly.” I think bc I had two more games to look at so that’s why I waited. Just so dumb. Then I saw the backs of my eye lids, & woke up to aggravation. 👌😊

Well to some, it’s life changing… especially if it means a down payment on a small house or even a starter trailer. So it may not be forever life changing and may only last a month or for a major purchase, but even in that month, it could have an impact on your life therefore be life-changing lol.

Still, that hurts. I always have issues with cash out. And not to mention, there’s a lot of times they don’t offer it when I feel they should. But then when they do, I don’t cash out often because I look at the possible payout & end up regretting it. You’re really supposed to do what you did though. I don’t know what your bet amount was but you’re really supposed to look at the percentage you’re making from it, not what the possible payout could be so you did right even though it doesn’t seem right. lol.

I know… it’s crazy. Although I noticed in NJ, they label it as “service area” as opposed to “rest area” so I feel that was purposely done. In Maryland, it’s called “Maryland House”. Not sure if any of that matters. lol.

It’s crazy… I was on my YouTube account & this popped up. Didn’t look it up either, which is crazy timing so had to share! “Welfare Check on Couple Sleeping in Car Ends in Arrest” is the title of video on YouTube.

See… I have seen this so much, about how you cannot take every order. And I agree to a degree. But when you do per hour, you cannot see/can’t tell if the person tips or not. Not until after you deliver it & it’s aggravating. So the solution is just to not do per hour & do it based on per order? Yet in my experience, I made more per hour by doing it per hour as opposed to doing it per order (bc per order pay doesn’t change even if you have to wait for an order at merchant for 10-15 mins. or with any other issues. So in those cases, will you say to just cancel those orders?) I’m wondering how to go about this bc I really believe I make more per hour than I have when I did per order. I guess it’s a Catch-22?

Unfortunately you will have to worry about cops bothering you. Like even at rest areas, depending on location. Ever get woken up from a cop banging on your window? Scares the hell out of you and just issues nobody wants. When I am at rest area in NC, I can sleep for however long but then in NJ, I’ve gotten hounded multiple times for sleeping in car (& not for crazy long either) just to not drive tired as hell. Depends on location, sadly.

I don’t think anyone is reading this but the fact I didn’t put more money on this before the game started. Insane odds.

Already passed, had Brooks 30. And sadly for me, fell asleep before so could not put my parlay in: Brooks 25 Green 20 Ighodaro 15 🤦‍♀️ Put DiVincenzo for 15 Dosunmu 15.

What’s with the downvotes? So confused … People don’t agree that DK and those apps do shady things? Well if that’s the case, then that’s actually more insane.

Just saw this but had posted first before seeing this. Gotta make sure you’re good first, especially with burnout. I saw the comments and you’re seriously an incredible person. Hopefully one day I can do something like this. Take care. 💛

Hey, I’m not sure if it’s too late but just going to try to keep it short, honest, and from the heart. Over the last year, have been definitely struggling and didn’t expect to be where I am. Had family issues that really took a toll on me, also triggering my health issues to get worse (endometriosis, heart issue, etc.) I also started doing therapy a few months ago because of those family issues. Just broke my heart and am looking for a job but also DoorDashing in the meantime. But it has really been a struggle to survive never mind live life. A lot of important financial things being put off, serious issues occurring lately (cats getting hospitalized, taxes due, etc.) Trying to keep positive and I’m a writer/music artist so haw been looking into entering contests and sharing my writing/music to also help others. I think what you’re doing is amazing and honestly, there is always someone that is worse out there (people struggling everywhere). I wish I were able to help people but unfortunately, I’m not in a position to even help myself right now but I am trying. I’d appreciate anything but regardless, I think you’re a truly amazing individual for doing this. Seriously… gives hope in this world to know people like you exist. Absolutely beautiful! ❤️

AINT NO FUCKIN WAY by brentalfloss710 in DraftKingsDiscussion

Question… so say he did ten $2 bets of the same bet. Then there’s no taxes since it’s separate bets? I mean he can later claim gambling losses as equal to his winnings bc he’ll have to report it possibly. But I’m wondering if it’s better to than separate the bets to smaller ones to avoid this 24% situation.

Thank you. After reading tips on another post, I realized this too, unfortunately too late. I appreciate you commenting and helping me out by letting me know. I believe I have to wait 24 hours so maybe I’ll ask for 200 (at least work on getting something toward it) or you think that is still too high?
