Intrade.com — gamble on more things

Barely keeping afloat with that gambling addiction? This’ll sink the raft.
Intrade.com allows users to bet on a variety of topics they would usually only bet on with friends for like twenty dollars. With Intrade, the entire Internet is your friend and the bet can be your life savings.
I know I’ve been dying to bet on who’ll receive the democratic nomination and, by extension, what the voters of Pennsylvania will do at the polls. See, I know what they’re thinking up there. That’s what I plan to tell the bank manager when I try to get a loan.
Intrade isn’t perfect yet. Users still can’t bet on things like “how many fingers am I holding up?” and “I just picked something up. What is it?” But I’m sure they’ve got people working on that problem right now. How many people? Five? I think it’s five. I bet you it’s five.

Oh good. I feel comforted knowing that it is that much easier to waste my hard earned money in our already fragile, collapsing economy. This is just the kind of thing the bottom rung of society needs.
