Winning With Lucy

A colleague has been trying to get me to join her in buying some stocks and shares but i generally balk at the idea of putting money into something i know nothing about but armed with 5 companies that someone in the know slipped our way (not guaranteed but as close to a sure thing as it gets apparently), we did look at a couple of apps like eToro but we didn't understand it so we let the idea drop and had a discussion about Johnny Depp and James Franco instead although i still quite fancy the idea i just have no idea how to go about it.
I am on safer ground doing my football bets although my rapidly dwindling Skybet funds may suggest otherwise but i do have a system which is never bet against the team in red.
For some reason football teams in red always seem to be more successful which is why i am backing the red wearing Liverpool to pip the blues of Manchester City to the Premier league title although i am dreading the inevitable harping from the far too many Liverpool fans i know.  
My team Arsenal are playing Tottenham on Thursday which is almost a play off for the final Champions League place but as Tottenham are at home that means Arsenal will be playing in their away kit which isn't red so i fear facing Friday morning avoiding all Spurs fans.
Relegated are Watford and Norwich who both play in yellow and will be joined by white Leeds or blue Everton and they are being replaced in the top league by Fulham (white) and Bournemouth (red) so another red team to lose my money on next season.
I'm not sure how they decide who is the 'home' team in the UEFA European Cup Finals but in the three finals we have the red Liverpool beating white clad Real Madrid and all red Roma beating half red Feyenoord but as Eintracht Frankfurt wear black and Rangers wear Blue, that one is heading for a boring nil-nil yawnfest and the Germans winning on penalties.
So until i manage to navigate the stock market and fling money at those 5 (not guaranteed but as close to a sure thing) companies, i say get to the bookies and fill out the betting slip with Liverpool, Roma and Frankfurt, you know it makes sense.
