NOT AN ACCIDENT, but if you're seeing this on June 28th, the winning era begins for you. Relationships. Health. Wealth. Everythiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing gets better from here. You're so lucky.
I cannot stress it enough that if you want to be a winning sports bettor you should be mostly straight single bets, that’s how you long term money if you are good at sports betting. Parlays are nice, but straight bets make you sustain cashes.

When I reached 60, I asked a friend of mine who has crossed 70 and is heading to 80 about the sort of change he is feeling in himself?
He sent me the following very interesting lines, which I felt are #TooGoodNotToShare and do tell us something ..
I used to work for a certain bank where I was heavily involved in data analysis. One day, I decided to analyze customer accounts based on their balances. I categorized them into two groups: accounts with KSh 5,000 and above, and accounts with less than KSh 5,000.
The results were quite interesting. About 80% of account holders had balances below KSh 5,000, while only 20% had balances above KSh 5,000.
What was even more surprising was the distribution of the total deposits. The 80% of customers with balances below KSh 5,000 held only 20% of the bank's total deposits, while the 20% with balances above KSh 5,000 held 80% of the total deposits. The bank's management was also surprised by these findings, and they eventually created a separate banking service for customers with large deposits.
We went further and conducted research to understand the dynamics behind this pattern.
We found that those with balances below KSh 5,000 were mainly:
Tenants
Parents
Shoppers
Worshippers
Retailers
Most of them were salaried employees.
On the other hand, those with balances above KSh 5,000 were typically:
- Landlords
- Supermarket owners
- Manufacturers and wholesalers
- Churches
- Schools
- Other organizations
The reason was simple: these accounts received money from many people. In fact, we referred to them as "collection accounts."
The lesson I drew from this is that wealth is often built by creating systems, businesses, or assets that generate income from the efforts and transactions of many people, rather than relying solely on a salary.
One challenge is that many employed people never fully grasp this concept because a regular salary can sometimes limit their thinking about alternative ways of generating income and building wealth.
When you start making good money, save it. Especially in the beginning. Save as much as you can. You'll desire things. New car, new watch, designer clothes to show the world you made it. And dumb philosophies will try to justify it. YOLO, life is short. Don't pay attention. Don't change anything. Save for a few years. And one day you'll notice, the urgency is gone. The anxiety... gone. You go to a restaurant, and you stop looking at the right side of the menu. You plan a holiday and you don't wait 3 weeks for cheap flights. Someone made you an offer that doesn't feel right, and you say no without thinking twice. That's what happens when you overcome instant gratification. It will give you peace to move at your own pace. A little patience, that's all you need. And it will give you something that no material object can ever match: a calm nervous system.
