The money is deposited in a brokerage house that places sport bets all over the world. You, the investor, don’t place the bets by yourself, but you leave that to experts who charge a commission for doing it. Because it is the brokerage house that makes the choice of the bets to place, this way of earning money is not hazard but an alternative form of investment. It should be emphasized here that we are not talking about bookie bets, but about transactions made on our behalf by specialized companies who are highly motivated to get the best possible results. Such company is very much like a brokerage house, but not dealing in shares but in results of sport competitions. In most cases the percentage of successful in-plus transactions is similar to the percentage of successful share investments, so there is actually not much difference between these two ways of investing money, which allows viewing sport betting as a sensible method of diversifying your portfolio.
