You issue notes, at $5 apiece, promising to pay each bearer $1 million dollars if Jacksonville wins by 35 points or more. $5 vs $1 million is a stupid bet.

$5 vs $1 million is a stupid bet. Not necessarily. It depends on the teams involved. But if you don't like $5, how about $5000? Or whatever. That really doesn't affect the point I was trying to make.

It’s a risky bet, but not a stupid one if it works out in your favour. If if works, a quick way to lots of wealth.
How do you think the former Governor of New Jersey (name forgotten) ended up collapsing one of the largest hedge funds over night. If he had won his bet he would have made commissions of something like $250 million.
