But I'll go there and point out that $755,000 is easier to earn back than 10-20 million .

The Steward, hopefully unwittingly, created a new breed of a SIM horse called an 'Enigmabred.'
Re: Things that make you just want to give up
I have read this forum post several times now and each time I have the song Sometimes You Win, Sometimes You Lose, (by Carole King or was it Dee Snider?) stuck in my head.
"Sweet Seasons" by C. King
Sometimes you win sometimes you lose
And sometimes the blues just get a hold of you
Just when you though you had made it
All around the block people will talk
But I want to give it all that I've got
I just don't want, I don't want to waste it.
"Sometimes You Win (Sometimes You Lose). by D. Snider
In the beginning there was just no love to find
Then Eve told Adam, "bite this if you don't mind"
"Eve", said Adam as they left the garden
"This is something that should never have started"
Woah woah woah woah, but her apple did shine
Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose
But if you play, honey you can't choose
Sometimes you win and sometimes you lose
What can you do?
Don't give up. Hang in there Danny. Certainly your next tremendous success is just around the corner. There is always hope in the SIM. SIMcerely, jX

Re: Things that make you just want to give up
On the bright side man what a dispersal auction!! As far as bad luck , I think everyone who’s played this game for any appreciable length of time has seen results that were surprisingly disappointing, just one small thing I did was exercised a freak yearling into an injury retirement of course fully insured which only prevents random injuries, not overexercized or racing injuries from racing too often, but , in the end I think it’s best summed up by Tommy Lasorda who once said 85% don’t care about your troubles and the other 15% are glad you have them.. but as for myself I just want you to know I am not in the 15% and all you can do is take a deep breath , regroup , and try to remember that the positives outweigh the negatives and that if every venture was successful this would be one boring game, and j/k on the bright side comment lest my thoughts be misconstrued

And people say the SIM has no taxes. Sorry about that, maybe it will come round.

I was so excited for Valar when this colt was born. Apparently his mother only does fillies, and only when she really feels like it
