And then everyone goes, it's great.
You know, and every telecast and football game and TV show is now sponsored by one of these entities that wants you.
to come in the system and do it oh and by the way if you're super successful they're going to find a way to kick you out of it because they don't want you to actually be successful but that is the the lure the draw um and i you know we see it time and time again where somebody you know has placed a big bet on something and then you find out later that there's been some level of shenanigans that person knew what was going on or they could actually influence the outcome and they're the ones making the the big bets to get the big paydays
Yeah, it's a horrible thought that people have to resort to it.
And again, I'm not judging it.
I completely understand it.
I think it's a bad path to go down for several reasons.
One is because there's always a flip side.
And so if you go after it and it doesn't work properly,
The downside is going to put you so far behind that it's going to be a hole that's very difficult to climb out of.
I also just think that like in a time where everybody's kind of going crazy and there is all of this fraud and corruption, like there's never a better time.
to connect with your core principles and to be a good person.
And, you know, when you are getting ready to leave this earth, whenever that may be, you're not going to say to yourself, oh, I wish I would have gamed the system.
and had, you know, an extra sack of cash lying here next to me that I'm going to, you know, die holding like that's not going to do anything for you.
But you are going to think about your relationships and your family and being a good person.
And are you leaving
that legacy behind, which arguably is way more valuable than our currency that continues to depreciate in value.
So, you know, I'm somebody one of the things that I think is
I've always appreciated is that, like, by the time I had kind of gotten to my early 30s, I really knew myself well.
I knew what my core principles were, and I have not deviated from them.
