There's plenty of money to be made via online gambling without much risk. I think it's a perfect situation if you have saved up a nice little nest egg and you're looking to cover your monthly expenses entertainment and whatnot from the comfort of your own home without putting in a s*** ton of hours. It can be scaled up, however, that requires grow outside the box thinking more effort and more risk.

Once you know what you're looking for how to go about taking advantage of it the hardest part is track of all the different online casinos you've been to and then dealing with fax back forms(I always tend to procrastinate on that aspect) and keeping on top of things.
I had in the neighborhood of $1,000 I forgot all about sitting in an online casino for many years. To my surprise after a small deposit in a little bit of playing I was successfully able to cash out and get my money.
