    Oh man. First time I went to the casino, I brought $40 and left my wallet in the car on purpose as I didn’t trust myself not to go crazy. Good thinking on my end… By the time I was done spending that amount, I was already scheming ways to go and grab my wallet without the people I was there with seeing me go back to the car. The very few times I went back since were with my wife, and she’s great at recognizing and regulating what I call my “stupid brain”, but it really showed me how I shouldn’t be trusted alone with that shit. I can definitely see it becoming a problem if I ever went alone…
