People who are fixated on getting rich through gambling forget
one thing: in the long run, the house always wins.
An $11 million payout is awesome, to be sure, but it pales in
comparison to the millions more that get raked from all the other
losers.
The sad thing is, for some people gambling is the be-all and
end-all, and they lose sight of their morals in the process.
I remember the time I worked at a 7-11 while waiting for
enlistment.... every evening, there will be Malay pakciks lining up
to buy Wanbao to find out the winning numbers.
And when they get fed up from the long queue, they take it out
by scolding me for being slow.... hello pakcik, gambling is a major
sin in Islam, yah?
