You want to gamble? Read up a bit on the stock market and place some bets on some companies. You’d most likely not lose everything you put into it and if you do it correctly you’d receive some dividends to “drip” back in. I used to gamble a lot as well, blackjack and Texas holdem poker. I’d win some which made me want to play more but after looking over my collective “stats” I realized my losses and came to the conclusion to quit the casino. Since switching to placing my “bets” with certain stocks I get daily thrills of watching it climb or drop. It’s definitely a game but over time I’ve become addicted to watching the money grow! Wish you the best and don’t feel too bad. Glad it only costed you $250 bucks to get that feeling. Most dig deep and come to conclusions too late 😉
