how to fund your 6 month trip to australia by gambling
when a few pals of mine went travelling down under a few years ago, they all knew that as fun as it would be, money would soon run out and they'd have to get jobs at some point. all of them except one of them, who hit upon the brilliant idea of reading book after book about card counting, perfecting his method, all for months in advance, so he could live off his winnings once he got there while his other friends all had to go to mundane bar jobs and the like all week.

as i understand it, he walked into a casino the first week he was there, lost about $500 in 10 minutes then realised he'd made a big mistake.

i think he got a bar job in the end.
