Or it fully broke his spirit.....
Why not both?
I've never been a gambler because I've only ever lost. I'd say I'm down ~$30 in the last 30 years.
I'm not really a gambler either. I've been to the casino a few times in my 20s with friends, but either for one of their birthdays or they were celebrating something. I only ever brought like $50 to drink with and another $50 to play with, knowing full well the most enjoyment of that hundo I was getting was the beers.
I did however win exactly once. Turned my last $10 of the 50 into $900. And that was also the last time I ever gambled.
I did once have someone give me a roll of quarters and I walked out with $70. I figured the only reason I won was because it wasn't my money.
I mean, that's pretty sweet!
It's like me and lotto tickets. If I buy one, I lose every time. If someone buys me one I win either a free play or the value of the ticket....then lose on the free play
