It is commonly said that experience is the best teacher, but someone also said that a wise person does not wait to learn from his or her own experiences, but would watch and learn from what happens to other people.
Sometime last two weeks, someone down my street slept, and unfortunately, did not wake, he's a young guy living alone, he's a known gambler, and not just a normal gambler but a high roller.
Some friends who are really close to him said he has accounts on several online casinos, and that he is very much into sports betting, one guy said he saw the account balance on one of his accounts one time and it was close to $60,000 ($58k+ to be precise).
This guy passed away all of a sudden, he was not sick, nothing nothing, he just slept and did not wake.
And in all his family, friends, no body knew the password to unlock his phone or computer, not even his girl friend.
They have tried all the password ideas they had but non was correct, at the end, they had to reset the phones back to their factory settings , right now as I am typing this post, the family have no idea how they can access the casinos where the guy left tens of thousands of dollars, and neither do they have any idea how to access the money.
The guy is also an investor in crypto currencies, and I personally believe he also have investments in crypto coins which the family may also never be able to access.
In my own personal assessment and assumption, this guy should have nothing less than $120,000 to $150,000 in total, kept online both in cryptocurrencies and gambling accounts.
This incident indeed have thought me some lesson, try and have someone in your family atleast, whom you can trust enough to share your gambling and other financial secret with, for no body knows when death will come knocking, we all pray to live a very long life and die at a prime old age, but to be honest, we still have to plan well so that, if for whatever reason, our live is cut short of our expectations, what we have labored for all through the years we lived, will not end up in the hands of another person or people we don't even know, and have never meet.
This is my advice to online gamblers who cannot do without leaving money in their gambling accounts, and also to crypto traders and investors at large.
