I think he gambled enough with his illegal business practices,which probably led to his money problems, which probably led to his other gambling problems.

If you want a real gamble, lay out good money for a Chrysler.

Or invest in the stock market. Or a fund run by Madoff. Or put it in a savings and loan. Or invest in a 'friends' company and you find out they aren't a friend. Seems like everything is a gamble but most aren't any fun.

What a dumb ass!!! He would have done better to contribute some big $$$ to an elected representatives campaign then have them declare his business "too important to fail" so he could get a bailout.
