Message: [QUOTE="Weregoat, post: 1390726, member: 62741"] Interesting post - Without more information I'd say he ran into some financial trouble - Nick pretty much covered his bases - possible gambling trouble, sure - but it's possible he had some excellent financial opportunity come up and couldn't get enough liquid funds to invest in it. Say . . . his son (or friend, or friend's son) worked out the math and science and theories behind a time machine and needed another few grand to get his prototype together. (Or even him.) Then, he can go back in time and win as many bracelets as he wants - with the advance knowledge of how each hand will play out he'll make back ten thousand times his investment in the first year - and win a jillion bracelets in the mean time. It's simple economics - BUILD A TIME MACHINE! [/QUOTE]
