[00:13.73]Special English program
[00:15.37]WORDS AND THEIR STORIES.
[00:17.71]Many people believe that
[00:20.30]money makes the world go around.
[00:23.24]Others believe that
[00:25.03]money buys happiness.
[00:27.22]I do not agree with either idea.
[00:30.70]But I do admit that money
[00:33.54]can make people do strange things.
[00:36.52]Let me tell you about a person
[00:39.56]I once knew who liked
[00:41.70]to play card games for money.
[00:44.25]He liked to gamble.
[00:46.05]My friend Bob had a problem
[00:49.38]because he liked to gamble
[00:51.82]at all costs.
[00:53.67]He would play at any time
[00:56.26]and at any price.
[00:58.55]To take part in a card game
[01:01.49]such as poker, my friend
[01:03.68]would have to ante up.
[01:05.97]He would have to pay
[01:07.86]a small amount of money
[01:09.80]at the beginning of the game.
[01:11.84]Bob always played with cold,
[01:16.08]hard cash -- onlycoins
[01:18.86]and dollar bills.
[01:20.06]Sometimes my friend would clean up.
[01:23.69]He would win a lot of money
[01:26.49]on one card game.
[01:28.53]He liked to tell me that one day
[01:32.16]he would break the bank.
[01:34.50]What a feeling it must be
[01:36.84]to win all of the money
[01:39.68]at a gambling table!
[01:41.32]Other times my friend
[01:44.11]would simply break even.
[01:46.20]He neither won nor lost money.
[01:49.08]But sometimes Bob
[01:52.32]would lose his shirt.
[01:54.01]He would lose all the money he had.
[01:57.74]He took a beating
[02:00.28]at the gambling table.
[02:01.92]When this happened, my friend
[02:05.16]would have to go in the hole.
[02:07.80]He would go into debt
[02:10.39]and owe people money.
[02:12.38]Recently, Bob turned to crime
[02:16.91]after losing all his money.
[02:19.26]In his job, he kept the books
[02:22.40]for a small business.
[02:24.29]He supervised the records
[02:26.63]of money earned and spent
[02:28.96]by the company.
[02:30.01]Although my friend
[02:32.15]was usually honest,
[02:33.99]he decided to cook the books.
[02:37.28]He illegally changed
[02:39.86]the financial records of the company.
[02:42.35]This permitted him
[02:45.19]to make a fast buck.
[02:47.03]My friend made some quick,
[02:49.72]easy money dishonestly.
[02:52.21]I never thought Bob
[02:55.29]would have sticky fingers.
[02:57.03]He did not seem like a thief
[03:00.37]who would steal money.
[03:02.21]But, some people will do
[03:05.19]anything for love of money.
[03:07.23]Bob used the money he stole
[03:11.66]from his company to gamble again.
[03:14.45]This time, he cashed in.
[03:17.27]He made a lot of money.
[03:20.15]Quickly he was back on his feet.
[03:23.44]He had returned
[03:25.23]to good financial health.
[03:27.62]His company, however,
[03:30.36]ended up in the red.
[03:32.69]It lost more money than it earned.
[03:36.58]The company was no longer profitable.
[03:40.06]It did not take long
[03:42.85]before my friend's dishonesty
[03:45.19]was discovered.
[03:46.93]The company investigated
[03:49.22]and charged him with stealing.
[03:51.61]Bob tried to pass the buck.
[03:55.50]He tried to blame someone else
[03:58.58]for the deficit.
[04:00.32]His lie did not work, however.
[04:03.51]He ended up in jail.
[04:06.00]Today, I would bet my bottom dollar
[04:10.54]that my friend will
[04:12.58]never gamble again.
[04:14.32]I would bet all I have that
[04:17.70]he learned his lesson about gambling.

Now, the VOA
Special English program
WORDS AND THEIR STORIES.
Many people believe that
money makes the world go around.
Others believe that
money buys happiness.
I do not agree with either idea.
But I do admit that money
can make people do strange things.
Let me tell you about a person
I once knew who liked
to play card games for money.
He liked to gamble.
My friend Bob had a problem
because he liked to gamble
at all costs.
He would play at any time
and at any price.
To take part in a card game
such as poker, my friend
would have to ante up.
He would have to pay
a small amount of money
at the beginning of the game.
Bob always played with cold,
hard cash -- onlycoins
and dollar bills.
Sometimes my friend would clean up.
He would win a lot of money
on one card game.
He liked to tell me that one day
he would break the bank.
What a feeling it must be
to win all of the money
at a gambling table!
Other times my friend
would simply break even.
He neither won nor lost money.
But sometimes Bob
would lose his shirt.
He would lose all the money he had.
He took a beating
at the gambling table.
When this happened, my friend
would have to go in the hole.
He would go into debt
and owe people money.
Recently, Bob turned to crime
after losing all his money.
In his job, he kept the books
for a small business.
He supervised the records
of money earned and spent
by the company.
Although my friend
was usually honest,
he decided to cook the books.
He illegally changed
the financial records of the company.
This permitted him
to make a fast buck.
My friend made some quick,
easy money dishonestly.
I never thought Bob
would have sticky fingers.
He did not seem like a thief
who would steal money.
But, some people will do
anything for love of money.
Bob used the money he stole
from his company to gamble again.
This time, he cashed in.
He made a lot of money.
Quickly he was back on his feet.
He had returned
to good financial health.
His company, however,
ended up in the red.
It lost more money than it earned.
The company was no longer profitable.
It did not take long
before my friend's dishonesty
was discovered.
The company investigated
and charged him with stealing.
Bob tried to pass the buck.
He tried to blame someone else
for the deficit.
His lie did not work, however.
He ended up in jail.
Today, I would bet my bottom dollar
that my friend will
never gamble again.
I would bet all I have that
he learned his lesson about gambling.
