Most people knocking it, is because they are envious they can not afford it themselves! And they are afraid they even get further back in the que!
Normal human reaction, but the reality of the world, is that everyone will look after number one first, somebody will win and somebody will loose, that's the law of capitalism. If you can't afford to loose your money, don't go to the casino and gamble with it!
Similar situation as with this, it's a huge gamble, and depends do you have the stomach to raise the stakes? At the moment the odds are still probably better at the casinos.
But mostly, get down and get real, start at the bottom and work upwards!
Lay the foundations!
