Just wanted some views.I used to gamble too much and chase losses .I had this view you could beat the bookies if you just had enough money.it did not work.Now I find gambling boring and ma very selective when I do it.I do it within reason and either lose small amounts or win small amounts.

I was just wondering is my type of obsessions with numbers typical of Autism.I am also very into money and the stock market etc and love the FT.

Look forward to some views on the above

It's also common for anyone with a strong analytical mind to be drawn to these areas, whether they're on the spectrum or not. The key is how it affects your life—if it's something you can manage well, then it's just part of who you are. If you're curious or concerned about how these traits align with autism, it might be worth exploring further with a professional.

no the good news was I hated losing money so now I have gone back to doing it for fun and studying form etc.I am one of these people that get an idea there is a system and pattern and the bookies don't know about it!
