Some advice needed Clanners

Don, to be honest i have no idea. I am yet to be allocated to a professor (who will be my mentor).

Structures – Bookmakers versus a Betting Exchange

Why on-line Bookmakers should offer better odds than those in the tattersalls.

Tote vs Bookmakers re: Open bet.

Different Taxation: Casinos, Sports betting and Horse Racing.........

How race courses/tattersalls/totes can attract more people/punters.............

Why Betting Exchanges should be allowed in SA...............

Comparisons of countries where Bookmakers are not allowed to operate........

ok, i see what stage you're at. First of all, well done for taking it on, and secondly, keep chipping away at the block, the 18 months will go far quicker than you think!!. Try to get hold of the paperwork ASAP which outlines the structure of the paper which the uni needs to send you - this will help tremendously. Then, to start with you need to find journal entries or articles written by bigwigs (scientific papers/economic papers in accredited areas i.e. journals or whatever) which supports your thought line and which you can use in support of your hypothesis. hope this helps for the meantime

Nope, they take way too much of clanners' time

yeah, i don't think your wife realises what she's let herself in for !!!....lol
some people become dissertatezillas......but hey, good for you! you can do it, don't feel alone. (I have only 10K words to go...better get on with it).....in a couple of months you will also be thinking in terms of 'number of words'....then becomes later 'number of (enter expletive) words' and so forth....perhaps my topic should've been how to deal with the trauma of writer's block...lol

ps, where are you based in SAF?
