Gambling

Many earthlings like to spend money for a small chance to make more money. The interesting thing about it is that earthlings will continue to do so no matter how much money they lose. For every $100 people put in, the casino will give them $90 - $99 back. People seldom stop when they're ahead, or when they're behind; they just continue playing until they're broke. I don't understand this; why don't they engage in gladiatorial combat for the cash? It would be much more interesting. Many people think of gambling as a way to get money. Are they stupid? If you walk into a ritzy casino, where do you think they got all that money from? It wasn't charity.

Gambling is mathematically calculated to be addicting. There are 38 sections on a roulette wheel: 1 - 36 in red and black, and two green sections. If there is a 50% chance of success, then betting on red or black is perfectly fair, but the chance of success is slightly below that, because of the two green sections. Gambling games are made to make it so that you win 49% of the time, but the house wins 51% of the time. That makes it so that you think you won money when you lost money. And if you lose enough money, the casino will buy you free drinks so you don't remember losing! Then you spend more money. If someone is looking for a way to get rid of money, might I suggest giving it to me?

Farewell, and may you always waste money on useful junk.
