Wdyw/Go to the casino

From Create Your Own Story

With your money in your suitcase, you go the casino. This your last chance. You go buy your chips then head to the roulette table. You place $25,000 on red and win instantly doubling your money. You place $50k on red again and win. You repeat two more times and now have $400,000 plus the $75,000 you didn't use at first. You are literally $25k away from being a free man, but the risk is now larger than ever because you could easily lose everything. You take $20k and place it on black and lose. Now you are $45k away. You need this and can't give up now. You put $25k on black again and lose. Now you are getting frustrated, when are you going to catch a break? You start to break down as the seriousness of your situation falls down on your shoulders. An old lady sees you sobbing at a table and comes over. You spill your guts and she listens quietly to your whole story. You tell her about going back to school, the loans, your wife, your kids, the police, and the money you need. She doesn't say anything and when you finish, she reaches into her purse and dumps out $100k in chips. You aren't sure if she is showing you what she has or giving them to you until she pushes the pile into your bag.

She stands and whispers to you, "You need this more than I do." before walking out of the casino

You count your chips and realize you now have $530,000 and can pay your debts plus more if necessary. You catch a cab to the police station and turn over the money to the stern man. He is in utter shock as you dump the chips onto the table. He doesn't know what to say. You swing your leg up on the table and ask to have the ankle tracker removed. He obliges and you are a free man. Your wife is crying on the couch as you walk in the door. You explain what just happened in the past 10 hours and she stares like the stern man did. You continue on with your life in England, now debt free and happy.

You pass away at 90 as a great-grandfather holding Tina's hand.
