Fred dated a girl moved in and when she wanted to open a spa he parlayed every cent, max out all his credit cards, borrowed from friends, only to find the girl split and leave him with a dream he never wanted and a nightmare in debt.

Why am I telling you this? Well, today my handicapping buddy won the Beulah handicapping contest over some 200+ people and took home a well disserved $22K as well as a trip to the finals in Vegas.

I've never been so happy for someone else. He diserves it and it couldn't happen to a nicer guy. Look out Vegas, Fred's coming!
Great Story! I tell you there is nothing more satisfying in this world untill you hit big at the track. I wish him best of Luck!
