Yer fired !

Nope!

Haha! I just floated that one around to see the reactions…I said I would do it, with my own high risk tolerance.

I get it . I've done some risky stuff for myself over the years too .... but treat my parents' trust in me a bit differently.

What are the odds of winning a Roulette bet?

The payout is 5:1, and the odds are 16.22% and 15.79% for European and American Roulette.

$350K or nothing. Just like a .180 average hitter hitting a homer.

I split mine between my Roth IRA and a mix of index funds, but I also peeled off a tiny chunk for some fun stuff, like cheap csgo skins. It's been a surprising way to chill out on weekends. Rest went into boring adult stuff like repairs and paying down the mortgage.
