When you’re gambling at a casino, your mind is bound to wander to all the stuff you would spend your earnings on. You haven’t won anything yet but you’re daydreaming about it. You plan that you would take everyone in your group out to dinner and let them buy whatever they wanted to. If you’re dreaming big, you’re thinking of the house that you’re going to buy and the boat that you’re going to charter. You might even share these dreams with whoever you’re gambling with. These are the fantasies that keep you spending money on the casino floor. If you didn’t think about all the stuff you might get you’d walk away.
But what happens when you actually win? Are you beholden to the stuff you said before you won the money? This is a tricky area, especially when it comes to family. Everyone knows it’s not great to mix family and money as it is.
