playing 21 in today's environment with all that entails, is more challenging than a "normal" job. it's been said numerous times that those with sufficient skills and motivation to successfully attack this game, should do better in "real world" endeavors.
unlike many others, i play this as a game in the traditional sense; so as to win. that money is the species of scoring is unimportant, only convenient. i equally enjoy other, diverse "games".
my objection to religious zealots preaching against gambling is that they seem to attach negative, extraneous attributes to any game because it involves money. otoh, perhaps these folk as well abhor bridge, hearts, chess...as a few "normal (?)" games. no different, are the many smaller games most play...stock/bond/fund trading, frequent flyer air miles, credit card benefits, coupon redemption, "collectibles"... and a load more if you zealots were to self examine.
