ok well i wont go into details, but i bought a 100$ canadian (giving me 77$US)prepaid credit card to play at an online casino...magically playing slots i won 1600, so i decided to play some live dealer blackjack....long story short, i just cashed out 170k$US...so thats roughly 200k canadian...

i have a few toys i wanna buy, and fix up a few things around the house, but that still leaves me atleast 120k that i dont know what to do with...was wondering if you guys had any suggestions? i mean realistic investments or something liek that? i dont wanna go blow my load on something i dont need or will waste, id rather be smart with my money, so im hoping for a little brainstorming here to help me decide what i should do with the rest
Yay!a good guy won!

I would put the majority in bitcoin. it is at a low point these months and its use has continued to increase

Work out your own goals . Do you want to create a passive income ? Longer term growth ? Start your own business , find what appeals to you . The only private investment you should make is in yourself , ie business ran buy you or realestate owned by you . There are plenty of ways to diversify a privately ran portfolio to achieve investment goals without paying a fee to someone else .

Yes, nowadays you need to leave the money in an account for a while, waiting for not only the transfer to occur, but also some sort of background transactions to happen. Lot of stories of people depositing checks and then having the bank take it back for some obscure fraud type activity. Good luck, love to see a happy story.

Ya most banks will flag the check at first cause its an offshore account/foriegn check, but the moneys will be there just tajes a while with check, thats why an e wallet is the way to go.

I would put some in gold or silver also. China is scheduled to do a gold audit in January and when its revealed how much they have bought up in the last few years the price should go up.

Straincreations which site do you prefer? I play bovada and the only thing I dont like is the anonymous players. I used to like to see who I made the most money off of on poker stars with pker tracker and just do a player search and follow certain players from table to table.
