Hello,

I am looking for websites that lets you bet on the future events.
The bet is offered similar to buying a stock or options (like regular
US market) but you can also purchase events. for example, US war with
Iraq was one event, or Sport.

As far as I remember, I originally read the article in Forbes or
Furtune which referred these websites and unfortunately I lost my
bookmarks and I don't remember where the address was.

So, basically it's like an online brokerage/exchange but instead of
US-Securities, it has stocks and options for events, movies, sports,
etc. Please note that, this is not a game-like website; It is with
real money and real exchange.

Thanks,

I am a Google Answers Researcher. I posted the link to the Slate
article as a comment, rather than as an answer, because there was no
way for me to be certain that it would provide you with what you
needed.

If you are fully satisfied, may I repost the link as the answer to your question?
