Part 4

The fast life was catching up to me and I was getting tired of the daily grind, if you grew up in Hudson County NJ you can relate to what I am saying. I feared if I did not make a change I would find myself running a losing race or winding up dead like a few of my friends, change was a must.

 My cousin Jamo who I mentioned in my first blog was no stranger to gambling and was telling me for several months to move to California and we can work for a guy named Jack Price who at that time was one of the best known Sports Handicappers in the nation. Price ran a network of companies out of Santa Ana in a huge warehouse that was filled with fancy cars, boats and other toys anyone would admire.

 My cousin had went on a interview once prior but did not follow through on the job offer at that time but he kept in touch with Price and hung out with him several times at Santa Anita Race Track. Price loved to hire East Coast people because he felt we had a edge over most salesman that worked for him. Price told my cousin he would be a good fit to his company that was bringing in over 1 million a month in revenue from 900#'s and direct sales.

 I decided to take my cousin up on the offer and left NJ in June of 1994 to start my new career as a Sports Handicapper that would begin in August when the NFL preseason kicked off.

 My next blog will cover my 1st of 22 years in the industry.. Hope you enjoy it.
