    So you think getting cancer and having your medical bills paid is winning? Because that’s one form of insurance. Sure, if you get into certain types, it can be closer to gambling. But it can be further or closer

      Yes. In this framing, where the goal is to lose the bet, getting cancer is winning. Winning the bet is a bad thing.

      Sort of – you loose health and win money. It’s definitively a win compared to getting cancer and not being able to get treatment.
