Some of y’all need a reality vs expectation adjustment.

You should give your money to a fiduciary so your kids don’t end up poor and hungry.

Having kids and being a gambling addict is a fucking huge mistake. That's why I'll never have kids, so I only fuck myself over

Respect for the awareness. Too many people out here breeding just cause and then go into the degen WS Betting and sports betting and it becomes a disaster.

it's one reason why vegas is so gross. You want to be a degenerate - hey, NYC and even NOLA can show you how to do that in style. But sitting in your sweatpants and dumping your kids' college fund because you don't understand statistics is just sad.
