Fruit Machine Chat

Was watching airline and people were going mad over a deley for 5 hours id just go sit in the arcade, probly be happy if my flight got delayed. and when peoples cars brake down you get them moaning oh its £90 to repair ect, is this what working for a living does to you?

if a worker needs £200 to fix the car it effects their whole routine thingy, they have all the rent and bills set and a £200 hit isnt very nice.

players would just go and hit a few machines and bang, thats the £200 and the rent is paid by the council, the food is put in the cupboards by the giro and the electric is tapped to the lamp post outside.

ofcourse there are a few players that aint on the rock and roll.

but players can make money if they need a bit extra so are less bothered about shit.

Er...never taken a penny off government! What the fuck is wrong with you?????

I reckon you lose the value of money when playing fruits. Easy come, easy go and then you become frivilous....at least I know I was before I became a saver.

I think you do become very wasteful however over time, after much, much screwing up and hard times you DO eventually learn to save - when its too late!

you need the odd substantial loss day , to appreciate the value of money

Oh I have. Several. You DO learn eventually...

Very true. I was like this before I got married and had more responsibility for other people. Now im much more respectful with money and have never claimed from the government during my playing career.

Lord help us, I know a few people doing very well off benefits!!! They just call me stupid.

lol its just you cannonball, I'd be pissed off at a 5 hour delay!!! How long is the arcade gonna amuse u for, probably got a load of shit in it!!!

As for the money for a repair, if you have a few quid on you, of course ur gonna care less, it doesnt matter how u got it!

Would probably have a few whiskys to calm my nerves :P

If I were a player I expect it wouldn't work just for being too concious over any sum of money etc, I'd be constantly keeping check of it and para if it went £1 over limit on any machine etc. Player lives are for some but I don't think I'd cope lol

Playing fruits on a bad day can be one of the biggest ball aches in the history of ball aches.

I am being serious when I say I believe it can make you more prone to suicidal thoughts, you absolutely must find the right balance or you could end up in serious trouble.

Stress is the biggest problem for me! Cant hack it! If things go wrong the toys fly out the pram!

Everyone is different I suppose, some can take the rough with the smooth and others break.
