Sometimes investing can be fun. Especially when you win. The financial fixed odds betting is designed to be fun yet from the start. This does not mean you can’t take it seriously and make money with it.

I guess you have heard about BetOnMarkets. It’s the most reputable online service for fixed odds financial betting.

This article is not a general review of BetOnMarkets. If you are not familiar at all with it, you can read the HYWD review here.

The problem with the fixed odds betting is you need to follow the markets close. It’s not easier than the day trading or swing trading.

Following my primary target - to leverage my investments on others work and experience - I want to introduce you the betting clubs and gurus service available in BetOnMarkets (and not managed by its staff).

So, let’s go straight to the point:

BOM Betting Clubs

Everyone who has achieved BOM affiliate status can open a club. The clubs are based on units and at the time of creating the unit price is $1. With the time the club unit prices raise or fall depending on the betting results of that club.

Investing in BOM clubs is entirely passive, you don’t need to do anything. You can sell the club units when the price is high enough for you.

Unfortunately last time I checked I was a bit disappointed by the clubs. Most of them looked quite a kido job, with entire capital less than $100. That just does not look too serious.

BOM Gurus

This section drawn more of my attention. The Gurus are just other BOM clients like you and me who provide signals for the bets they place. It’s pretty similar to the forex signal services. You follow their bets and either win or lose.

Supposingly the gurus have some experience and follow the markets for you. You usually have to pay monthly for the signals provided. I’ve seen prices between $10 and $25 per month, so it’s really not expensive.

Of course there is zero guarantee that the guru is really a guru. The only real indication are his/her past results. You definitely must see the performance before subscribing to any guru.

Obviously these options are VERY risky investing, but also can bring very high returns.
