Life is a Gamble


Life is a gamble and there are all different types of players. I'm not the type to place bets before the game begins. I wait until the dice have been thrown, then play my cards from there. Some people call it playing it safe, I call it playing it smart. Because even though there's potential for great profit, there's also the potential for great loss. And I'm not ready to lay down my hand just yet.
