I've heard stories of people who enter competitions full-time, but I can't say I've ever met anyone like that. Do you think these people are just urban legends, or can you actually earn a decent income this way? My only big win was a holiday to New York a few years back, and I'm always struck that whenever I tell people about this, I end up having the same conversation.
Me: "I won a holiday to New York once."
Other person: "Wow, that's amazing, I never win anything."
Me: "Do you ever enter competitions?"
Other person: "Er, no."
Which makes me think the odds of winning competitions are probably better than you'd think, since so many people seem never to enter any!
