The eight million dollars has me thinking.

If this is added up, from years of gambling, then it seems to lose some of its shocking value.

Also, if I bet $100 dollars at the casino, win $10,000, gamble the $10,000, lose that and end up with $0, haven't I only truly lost $100?

Couldn't this be how the numbers are added up?

LOL! I agree with you! My husband, unfortunately, would say that I'd lost $10,000 and he would be mad.

If Bennett SPENT 8 million dollars over 10 years seeing Broadway plays, buying expensive wines and taking fancy trips to Europe would anyone care? But because the money was SPENT in a casino and that's called gambling people are upset and worry about his virtue.
