Hm, this is one of those ideas which (like daily fantasy sports) seems to be in a gray area around online gambling. I don't know if what you're doing is currently illegal, but it definitely is one of those things that (e.g.) the NY Consumer Finance people don't tend to like. So I think that's a big risk for the business. Maybe you can get around these somehow but is it really how you want to spend your life?

If you want my advice, I'd encourage you to work on something that makes the world a better place somehow. Then you can have the world (and the regulators) on your side, and that gives your business a higher chance to succeed in the long term.
