Yep, for all the moralizing about sports gambling people on HN do, they sure love to prime their children for it.

It also just helped me understand the value of money, which to say has served me well is a massive understatement. Plus a real understanding of the fact that there's cons dressed up as fun, not everything is as it appears. It's okay to say 'no' to high pressure sales tactics.

But, again, we simply just didn't have room in the house for junk carnival prizes from a practical perspective.
