I don't think Shaun's playing devil's advocate it's probably just easier to assume some kind of 'moral high ground' when your wife's picking up the tab for your follies. I'm sure if he ever finds himself in the 60% bracket we'd have some turnaround.
?What 'moral high ground'? I was just saying that without the sportbook income, it would have to come from somewhere, most likely from the likes of you, which would be unfair. And I was also creditting people with the necessary intellegence to get to the web site they actually want. Also pointing out that the 2 BF products suit 2 different types of customer. Hardly controversial or deserving of that attack.
Devils advocate?....occasionally, but that's because nothing is a binary, and I get bored with two-bob traders assuming they have genius ideas for BF business models, convinced by nothing but their own ego that multi-million pound Betfair have got it wrong.
btw You've no idea what my/our personal situation has been for the last 23yrs. We've never had the concept of "my money" and "her money", and even if we did, my credits would be well over 7 figures more, but so what. The concept of a married couple having separate pots of cash is ridiculous anyway, both put in what you can, both take what you want, nobody takes the piss. I have years off, she has years off and life could not be sweeter. If that's not your situation then I don't give a fck, and I'd appreciate it if you didn't give a fck about mine either, ditto anyone else who feels the need to chip in.
