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 wouldn'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.
