This is one rare success story coming from gambling but this is something that must not inspire people to gamble so they can set up or salvage their company, the guy has a combination of character and luck, if he has a weak character and is easily swayed he'll just turn to gamble to make money but he opted to work on his company to make it to the top with hard work and determination, I admire his determination more than his decision to turn to gamble.
If we analyze this case, then in fact gambling may not be taken into account here - maybe he would have changed his mindset from watching some movie or book. I would say that the key to this story is not that he went to the casino, but that he had his own company. Probably not every casino visitor has his own company hehe. If I go to the casino tomorrow and even win 10-20 thousand dollars, then it will not change anything for me, since I am not a business owner.
