FYI: If you were crazy enough to do what I jokingly suggested, you would have made $240,000--PROFIT! The horse paid $6.80 to win for a $2.00 bet. ie, a $200,000 win bet would have returned $680,000. And so half that bet ($100,000), would have returned $340,000. $340,000 - $100,000(your investment) = $240,000 pure, tax free profit. A pretty nice down payment I think you'd agree! :)

You wrote: "My wife is a city girl and is gaga over the $400-450K homes in Old Louisville and Germantown/Highlands area. The same homes here would start at $2.5 million."

I responded: "Why not then put a $100g's on Big Brown to win? You'd be able to buy her that dream house in cash by tommorrow afternoon. JOKING!!!!!"
