National Take A Chance Day 2023
 |
I will buy a raffle ticket from a child to support their church or school when presented the request. I figure we should support our school and church children as best we can.
Today is National Take a Chance Day. Each April 23rd you have the opportunity to play some game of chance.
You pay your money and you take your chances.
For better or worse, as long as it's handled in a responsible manner there is little harm in gambling.
You will either win or lose regardless of the cash outlay.
However, if you blow your utilities allocation or rent or house payment on frivilous games of chance you are asking for nothing but trouble.
It's like my late friend Sambo said of video poker machines:
Anything that backs itself to a wall and takes on the world can't be beat.Take a chance but do so responsibly.
