Product Description

From the time he was a child, watching his parents struggle through financial pressures, Stu Feiner, vowed he would find a way to never have money be a problem in his life. And after witnessing his father's emotional involvement in watching professional sports, living and dying with his favorite team, the Oakland Raiders, Stu developed his plan for life. He would capitalize on our society's love for sports and their emotional identification with the teams they rooted for. Using information and prediction techniques handed down to him from his grandfather and father, Stu continued to feed his unquenchable thirst for sports knowledge by researching team histories, team defenses, match-ups and trends. Fueled by his desire to succeed, and his ability to dream, Stu began his sports advising business as a teenager, advising his father's friends how to bet parlay cards. This book follows his wild ride from teenage ticket scalper to arguably the country's premier sports advisor. Follow along as Stu takes you along on his roller-coaster ride of a life, complete with a narrative history of the sports advising business in America over the past thirty years. Be warned, it is a wild ride! So, buckle up, and hold on.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great and fun read, February 10, 2009

This review is from: BETCHA I CAN! (Paperback)

I loved this book. The only place I knew Stu Feiner prior to this book was through the movie "Two For The Money" but little did I know that movie was far from the truth. The ups and downs of Stu's life reads like it's straight out of a movie and the experiences this guy has been through in half a lifetime is more than a normal person experiences in 2 lifetimes.

5.0 out of 5 stars GREAT BOOK!!! , January 3, 2009

This review is from: BETCHA I CAN! (Paperback)

You will be on the edge of your seat for this entire book as Stu has seen a lot of ups and downs in his life which makes for a really great read. What is really cool about Stu is that despite being in some tough situations he has always used his imagination and drive to find a solution and improve his situation. Anyone who follows his picks on the website knows he is a hell of a handicapper too!

1.0 out of 5 stars Autobio of a loser, December 20, 2008

By	KenP "ken-p" (Portage, IN USA) - See all my reviews

Wow A tempting book by a guy evidently paying big bucks to an escort service. But, I already hear from Stu. Somehow I got on this guys spam list and for only $149.95 can get his 500 Dimes picks. Be still my heart.

This guy appears to aspire to be a pimp -- without the sharp threads and platform shoes.

I DIDN'T READ THIS BOOK. I GOT HERE BECAUSE HIS SPAM POINTS TO THIS PAGE.
