general, at some point, money loses its value and simply becomes a figure. at some point you realize that betting just isnt as worthwhile as you once thought it was and that, regardless of how hard you try there are so many factors that you cannot control that you will simply lose that same money back. In the long run, even if you are up, the money has lost alot of its value and just isnt the same thing.....
3000 dollars in an account become 3000 dollars you have already parted with and can afford to lose. You see 3000 when you log into your account and it goes up and down as time goes by....
