Do you feel that fruit machines are eventually going along the line of virtually unprofitable and unplayable.
Would you be happy to see the Fruit machine business/empire crash and burn ?

not had a job for over a year, and i get by fairly comfortable. i know slotters who aint worked for over ten years.
fair enough it aint as good as it used too be, and if i don't make enough too pay the bills i'll get a job.

Same here, keeping me in good fettle at the moment. Getting constant pressure to get a job, but when i can go out and make a 9 hour work days pay in a few hours (and have fun) i can't be arsed!

I've worked from 16 to 30, managed to temporaraly retire from public life for the time being. Got into the game late, a good thing maybe as I have mastered my addiction, ie. CONTROLLED or no gambling on horses/roulette etc, yet making money daily off machines, nice life for the moment thankyou.
no bosses,
get up when you want
work when you want
tax free earnings
free rent
free council tax
free UB40.
The downside
eat crap food
drink too much
mind always ticking over
hard to relax
paranoia

It's exactly what i've been doing Spyder - The government have put me £15k in debt, so i don't feel at all bad for taking £46 a week off them! Made me £600 recently so i'm more than happy

Think I'll stick to my day job as well. Can't beat creating a particularly crappy machine that fleeces the work-shy of their giros (which I PAID FOR via tax), complete with obscure MTR as a Christmas bonus - well a bonus any time really
