I am thinking about betting on the price of gasoline:
What will gas prices per gallon reach June 15? Fri 5/5 0:00AM (EST)
9205 $4 or greater +300
9206 $5 or greater +800
* Note: -- >> Average price for all grades of gasoline as reported by AAA

And maybe on these:
General Motors avoid bankruptcy next 3 months? Mon 5/1 0:00AM (EST)
9162 No +2400
* Note: Will General Motors be able to avoid declaring bankruptcy in the next 90 days? (By 5/8/2006)
Another state pass abortion law in next 3 months? Wed 6/7 0:00AM (EST)
9172 No +200
* Note: Will another state pass an abortion law similar to South Dakota's in the next three months?
US launch preemptive strike against Iran? Thu 8/10 0:00AM (EST)
9189 Yes +1000
* Note: Will the United States launch a preemptive military strike against Iran in the next three months? (Before 7/10/2006)
Something seems doubley evil about betting on people's misfortune, but I think it could be profitable.
