Good points and agreed. I did specifically think of and note those refugees or asylum seekers who do for sure need courage. However, I didn't consider economic migrants from developing countries. I can see there is courage required for

I think it takes more inquisitiveness than courage to voluntarily move to another country. I'm specifically discounting those who move to another country as a refugee or asylum seeker. I've lived in four different countries for pe

I had a similar concern with Trello. There are a few decent open source self-hosted alternatives. In the end I settled on Kanboard. It has a lot more features than Trello and a decent (although recently launched) plugin ecosystem. http:&#x

Smarkets has been OK. There's very little scope for arbitrage between Betfair and Smarkets markets, although I've had a couple of small scores doing that. Mostly, I can usually get a reasonable amount matched at the same price as

Yes, Betfair is a BHA authorised betting partner, which is why it is important for them to be seen to tackle fraud and corruption on their platform. The BHA could conceivably decide to withdraw that status. I was very careful in my earlier

Betfair (and the other exchanges) need to have the best fraud and corruption teams to ensure the integrity of their marketplace. As it is possible to lay results on an exchange, it does present ideal opportunity for nefarious betting activi

I also emigrated form the UK to another European country a while ago. Previously, I've always been transfering GBP to EUR, using a broker. This has been cost effective, but a bit of a pain to submit the order, deal with the broker etc.
