Before You Call Your Bookie

The Nihilist has released his Super Bowl pick, meaning that those who believe that he is about due to get one right are taking the points and putting $5 dollars on Seattle. Adherents to Learned Foot’s Nihilist Anti-Lock Betting System™ (NABS) are hopping on a flight to Vegas and placing the deed to their house on Pittsburgh.

Over the entire football season, the Nihilist’s picks have returned a disappointing -31.1% while Learned Foot’s NABS™ returned a respectable 8.4%. Although past performance doesn’t guarantee future results, the choice seems clear. However, before calling your bookie, consider calling your broker instead – Halliburton returned 19.5% over the same period.
