Except that isn't the case.
I was in elementary school for Microsoft's stock going up. I remember the day Windows 95 came out I said "mom, we should buy some stock!" We didn't, well, so sad, too bad. The point is that there's always money to be made, as soon as black/white thinking enters a person's world there's much less opportunity.
If a guy loses bet you go "oh, rotten luck." If he wins you say "spot me a beer, squire?" This weird wanting to protect grown men from their own acts, it's like, it's his money, why do you get these cringy feels like you're his momma watching him fall on his ass? And the fact is, that attitude doesn't even help him---men have to learn to fall flat on their face and get back up, unless they're lucky enough to be born into money.
Men don't get to have fistfights anymore like they did until about the 70s. This is probably not as good, but it's not bad either =]
