<p>Investing some times should be fun and exciting.  So what we have here is an opportunity to share in the spoils of sunken treasures, gold, silver and priceless artifacts.  You even get a chance to visit the dive site as part of the investment package; go for a dive and the first treasure you uncover, you get to keep. Just like in the good old days, finders keepers!</p>
<p>As a child growing up, I remember hearing stories of lost treasures hidden by seafaring Pirates who navigated the seas not too far from where we lived.  I was just one of many children who fantasized about one day finding a lost treasure map that will lead us to a buried chest full of gold.   The reality of that fantasy was no longer a dream for one life long treasure hunter named Mel Fisher (1922-1998).</p>
<p>Mel Fisher was one of the world’s most successful treasure hunters.  Previous successes paled in comparison to the &#8220;mother lode&#8221; discovery.  After more than 15 years of searching, on July 20, 1985, Fisher and his team located the Spanish galleon <em>Nuestra Senora de Atocha</em> that was lost in a hurricane off the coast of Florida in 1622.  The Atocha was documented as a royal guard galleon with 40 tons of gold and silver aboard at the time it sank.</p>
<p>The discovery contained thousands of artifacts, gold coins, silver coins, Spanish wares, jewelry, silver bars, emeralds and a variety of other priceless objects. It was a cache worth $450 million at the time. There were several other ships in the fleet that were lost as well during that same storm, including the <em>Santa Margarita</em> which carried priceless treasures as well.</p>
<p>Today, Mel Fisher’s legacy still goes on as his company continues to search and recover much of the treasures that still lay buried under the ocean from these sites.  Believe it or not, they are still salvaging from another site discovered by Mel Fisher since 1963. If you would like to learn more on how to become a partner, contact their investor relations for more details.  As Mel Fisher said it nicely, “Today is the Day”. <a href="http://www.melfisher.com">www.melfisher.com</a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In the world of financial markets, arbitrage trading is a technique where the trader buys a security at a low price and sells it in another market at a higher price.  The trades usually occur at the same time so the trader makes a profit from the discrepancy in pricing on two separate markets.  Arbitrage situations are not restricted just to the financial markets.  It can happen with the buying/selling of physical goods and with sports wagering.</p>
<p>Arbitrage situations in sports betting occur frequently because different bookkeepers post different odds on the outcome of the same game.  If an arbitrage is identified, it is usually a “risk free” or a “can’t lose” situation.</p>
<p>Let’s imagine a football game between Team A and Team B.  Bookmaker #1 is giving even odds, so a $100 dollar bet wins $100 if you pick the winning team.  Bookmaker #2 has Team A at +200.  If you bet $100 on Team A with bookmaker #2, you collect $200 if they win and lose $100 if Team A loses.  This is an arbitrage situation where you can make a profit and not lose any money no matter the outcome if you place the following bets.</p>
<ol>1.  Place a $300 wager on Team B at even odds with Bookmaker #1.<br />
2. Place a $200 bet on Team A with Bookmaker #2 a +200.</ol>
<p>If Team B wins, Bookmaker #1 pays you $300, but you lose $200 with Bookmaker #2.  This leaves you with a $100 profit.  If Team A wins, Bookmaker #2 pays you $400 and you lose $300 to Bookmaker #1.  This also leaves you with a $100 profit, so no matter who wins, you are in profit.</p>
<p>This system appears very easy to do; however, identifying the arbitrage situation takes some skills and manual labor.  The situation can appear quick, and you will have to do the math to secure the outcome and place the bets.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.riskfreeprofit.com">Riskfreeprofit.com</a> has come up with an automated arbitrage trading software call SureBetPro that can make this process easier.  The SureBetPro software checks every few seconds for arbitrage situations and delivers it directly to your desktop. You then place your bets and collect your profits.</p>
<blockquote><p>Numerous arbitrage situations, also referred to as “sure bets”, “scalps” and “risk free bets”, are created every day in sport’s-betting markets amongst the increasing number of bookmakers operating worldwide. These are terms attributed to a minor flaw in the betting system and YOU can take advantage of them! Earning from this flaw is perfectly legal and is tax free in most countries. The difference in the odds determines the amount of risk-free profit to be made by the Sport’s Arbitrage Trader.</p>
<p>Arbitrage is not to be confused with gambling, which carries a risk! It is a system where you trade with TWO different bookmakers who have opposing views on the outcome of an upcoming event on the same event. The result is a profit to you, no matter who wins the event. There is more to arbitrage than this but all the considerations have been built into our state-of-the-art software, so you don&#8217;t need to worry!</p>
<p>If you are new to sport&#8217;s arbitrage trading, just take a moment to imagine yourself placing a trade that ALWAYS wins, regardless of the outcome of the event. Because you don&#8217;t lose when you place an arbitrage trade, you&#8217;re not betting at all &#8211; you are trading.</p>
<p>There are many systems offered on the Internet for arbitrage trading, some good and some not so good&#8230; Most of the services rely upon manual searching for arbs, which is very time consuming and inefficient. Our software eliminates that inefficiency.</p></blockquote>
<p>Keep in mind that there will be a time consuming initial setup of the software to be done before you can use the software.  Before you can place any bets, you will have to open up accounts with bookmakers that the software tracks.  There are many bookmakers (about 70 in the software), so you can not place a bet in an arbitrage situation if you do have an account with the bookmaker.  You may need to have a significant amount of startup capital as well for initial betting deposits.  The software itself is not a one time purchase, but a recurring subscription of  $139.00 a month.</p>
<p>The question we have to ask ourselves is if sports arbitrage trading is really gambling or investing if you can never lose.  Hmmm?</p>

<p align="justify">I really enjoy investing in stocks.  Countless hours of research but still, on most days there seems to be an element of chance that goes into the picks that I trade.  One can never tell which way the market will move.  Some days I win and some days I lose.  For this reason I have always said that stock investing, is nothing more than legalized gambling except the odds are a bit better if you know how to play it right.  Ask me if I gamble at the casinos and I will tell you that it is a sure way to lose your money, so I only visit Vegas for the entertainment.</p>
<p align="justify">What if the the financial markets had a bookmaker?  Lucky for those of you that enjoy a little wagering, your prayers have been answered.  You can now place bets on just about all aspects of the markets.  Stocks, bonds, Yens, Dollars&#8230; you name it, you can place a wager on it.  <a href="http://www.betonmarkets.com">Betonmarkets.com</a>  is for those  you that want to have a little fun with the financial markets, but do not want to have anything to do with the underlying securities or brokers.</p>
<p align="justify">It is possible that you can make an income gambling.  Professional poker players have proven this, however, with Betonmarkets, you better know how to gamble as well as the financial markets.  I would rate it as a good source of entertainment, but I wouldn&#8217;t bet my retirement savings on it.  Have some fun and you might even win some money.</p>
<p align="justify">Betonmarkets is part of the Regent Markets Group and has been around since 2000.  They are a legal gambling site as noted on their website.  Below is more information if you are interested.</p>
