I trust no one, not even myself.
. .Like everybody and trust no one.
. .A person who trusts no one now, once trusted someone too much.
. .Don’t depend too much on anyone in this world because even your own shadow leaves you when you are in darkness.
. .Trust Gets You Killed Love Gets You Hurt And Being Real Gets You Hated.
. .Believe Nothing. Trust No One.
. .Nothing is as important as you are. Do take good care of thyself. If thou don't, no one else will.
. .Don't abandon your hobbies. If you don't have any, make new ones. You can learn to cook nyonya food, learn to dance the Off Beat Cha Cha, dance to the music and song of "Help me make it through the night", learn to play the keyboard, learn to sing, read books, you can adopt a cat or a dog, grow a kitchen garden, play cards, play monopoly, checkers, chess, dominoes, marbles, gasing, chapteh, rounders game, five stones, barbie dolls, play zero point game, guessing numbers game, kuti kuti, catch spiders or go learn how to fly kites and thereafter/upon graduation you can go and fly a kite. (ROFLMAO)
. .Take care of thyself. Go for a walk, eat your favorite food but do eat it in moderation, go for a brisk walk, get a haircut, cry if you need to, read a book, take a staycation, have a drink or two (and not one too many hoR), do what you need to do but do it in moderation. Take good care of thyself, because at the end of the day you're all you've got. ROFLMAO
. .And for Pete's sake do stay sober, sane and afloat at all time and don't go throwing your S$50 note into the toilet bowl and flushes it and also don't go falling from a height for reasons best known to you.
. .Do stay occupied, reduce your stress, ease your social isolation, combat your profound loneliness, kill your time, kill your boredom, control your anxiety and stay safe and sane, during this Covid-19 pandemic. Avoidance of boredom is the only worthy mode of action. Life otherwise is not worth living.
. .Pleasure is a mental experience in different states that humans want to recreate and it might be entertaining, enjoyable or put you in a happy mood. And that man is the richest whose pleasures are the cheapest. All it needs to make you happy is something to be enthusiastic about, you can join me at my playgrounds/offices for a flutter :-

Given those mathematics, is it possible to beat the horses only using one's intelligence? Intelligence should give some edge, because lots of people who don't know anything go out and bet lucky numbers and so forth. Therefore, somebody who really thinks about nothing but horse performance and is shrewd and mathematical could have a very considerable edge, in the absence of the frictional cost caused by the house take.

"An expert in any field will have an advantage over a rookie. But neither the veteran nor the rookie can be sure what the next flip will look like. The veteran will just have a better guess."
The defects of the mind are like the wounds of the body: no matter how much care we take to heal them, the scars remain, and there is always the danger that they will reopen. - Francois duc de La Rochefoucaul
