Gambling is a real problem, and thanks to the ease of sports betting these days, it’s gotten substantially worse. However, no matter how much money you’ve wasted on parlays, it likely doesn’t even come close to Ashley Revell, who in 2004, sold all of his possessions and bet everything he had on a single roulette spin.

How much was the amount in total, you ask? At the time, it was $135,300 — equal to about $230,250 today.

Fortunately for him, it worked out pretty well, as the wheel landed on his chosen color. Unfortunately, the years following weren’t too great for him, as the business he started with his winnings failed. Thankfully, he seems to be doing alright now, living as a happy family man. But don’t let his success give you any ideas!
