i gambled away a large chunk of money my grandmother left to me when she died . i thought i could put down most of it and double it , and pay for my college . i thought it was a sure thing , and now i have none of it that is too bad . what are you going to do ? was this your first time gambling ? it was ... i went on the advice of my best friend , who knows horse racing . he 's never given me advice like that before , so i figured he just felt really confident about it , otherwise he would n't say anything . i mean , i still can take out student loans , i just should have been smarter about this . that is too bad that you had to learn a lesson that way . i am sorry .
