You are "working my ass off for decent pay" - so how much of that decent pay are you putting towards paying off your debts each month?
Well no.
I have made it perfectly clear that the casino is not insured and the possibility of it going down is a big risk for the investors. It would be similar to say that if a real estate owner sells you the property and it plummets in price he would hold a debt to you of the difference that you lost.
If the real estate owner accidentally filled the swimming pool with gasoline instead of water after selling it to you and then accidentally lit it on fire destroying the house then it would be similar. Except that you weren't selling the site, so it's not really even a good example in that way either.
The price didn't plummet because of anything beyond the seller's control, like maybe a family of gingers moving in to the house next door. The price plummeted exactly because of the owner's own carelessness. He saw another house nearby gaining value by adding a swimming pool and thought he could capitalise by copying the idea, but he got an implementation detail wrong with disastrous results.
Meh, considering the fact that said house got seized by the owners pimp gang lord shorty afterwards and I still got left with the crumbs of original innovation I'd say my situation is a little bit better.
A chair manufacturer doesn't owe money to every previous generation of chair manufacturers, I can hardly say that he 'copies' something either, more like gets inspired and derives experience by observing others.
The business was light years ahead of yours and highly profitable (2.7 times more profitable to be precise) as well as more exciting and with additional options for on-chain betting, affiliates etc. The doofus of this forum haven't even managed to implement something on the same level or are even remotely close even after all this time. Need I mention that I was a teen at the time when I came up with the idea? Don't be so bitter about it dooglus, it's not good for your health at your age.
