Default Re: So I\'m getting screwed by a bookie. Ideas?

And to add to what Dank said, one more guidelines for the future / those listening

Never, ever, ever, let a local get behind.

This never should have gotten to 80k.

Settle every week with your local. Make a big point of it. Both directions. You pay promptly, and you expect he pays promptly.

The best locals that I *ahem* know collect once a week like clockwork once you're established, and they pay out once a week like clockwork a couple days after the collection. And the first time that payout is even a couple hours late, you need to start to make other plans.

If he slides one week and hasn't corrected the next, then you're working on a much smaller debt and he can recover. Never let a guy get in to you for more than one or two weeks maximum, just like you should never get in to a guy like this for more than one or two weeks maximum.
