With the crap I am going through, if somebody would help supply the beer and give me a safe place to stay so I wouldn't have to drive, I would take that advice. And I don't even drink that much.

There's always the Racer's Retirement Plan, more commonly known as POWERBALL.....I remember a few years ago a late model drive in California hit the state lottery for about $11 million. He went racing and was broke in just a few years. He may have gone broke fast, but unfortunately, he didn't even go fast going broke!
