A South Dakota tax preparation specialist was on National Public Radio a few minutes ago, sharing a strange story of last-minute filers.
A man walked into his office on April 15 and said he had $25,000 in poker winnings to declare. But he couldn't afford to pay the taxes on them.
Why? He invested the winnings, in a company which went bankrupt.
How bizarre, how bizarre. Moral of the story: Money can come and money can go -- whether you have a flush on the flop or stock certificates.
Don't hold on tightly to poker winnings. Hold onto Someone you can't really grasp physically -- a God who can guide you to even better treasures someday.
"For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also." -- Matthew 6:21
