Windfall or Break Even?

As you guys know I struggled with going to the casino when I first turned 21. Thank goodness I calmed down a little and now only go about once a month. At one point, I felt like I lost so much money that I couldn't keep track of it anymore. Here's my delimma though: since I didn't keep track to the dollar, I actually think I came out ahead when I won the money. Of course now I am going to save the bulk of it. Gambling is a sunk cost. You will never get it back again when you consistently lose. If I hadn't gone to the casino, I probably would have saved that money instead.

Bingo!

I've really been refraining from going to the casino lately. It's been more than a month. I went with a couple of friends of mine tonight and  won at bingo! I am very excited and played a little slots, played a little blackjack, and gave my friends a little treat. It's always a good idea to show your friends some appreciation. I have met my Christmas Fund goal, of course.As for the rest, I will buy some necessities then save it.
(In my Bank of America bank account, which I really need to find a new bank because of their unjustified checking account fees starting in January.)
