I have a problem. I can't help it, 4-0 up in the 78th minute offering 1.01 (1% profit for 12 minutes work, in non-betting talk). ******* bent africans cost me my place at uni.

that is obviously dumb but credit card companies take "bets" that are just as dubious. give credit to people with no money , but have assets which they bought with more credit from somewhere else???? the very nasty consequences don't come immediately like flipping a coin, and i think you've already read how shit hits the fan. it really is like a time-bomb.
i guess a better, equally white-collared comparison would be in the stock market with all that short-selling. 'cept they bet in the millions, and some of them lose by the billions.but you can never read the odds or count all your cards in those types of bets.

That's so funny. He must have been desperate for that £44.
