There is absolutely no doubt that you can profit from the lay - afterall that's what bookmakers do. As the others have said, blindly laying the real roughies is going to land you in trouble. You still need to have an angle to back up your selection, you need to have done the research, you need to have a bank that can cope with the pay outs, and you need to know what your going to do when you get it wrong. It's all basic stuff that should be in your betting plan before you start having a big go.
Laying's not for everybody but it does suit me. In fact I'd only ever been a break-even type of punter before I turned to laying. Now I do alot better.
The most important thing about laying is to stop thinking like a backer. It's quite a different mentally process. I'd have trouble going back now.
