It was a time when an industrious teenager could literally make a fortune overnight. Many gambled their lives and freedom away just as quickly chasing that pot of gold. Those who played the game considered the reward to be worth the risk that inevitably resulted in one of two outcomes: a secure, prosperous future or a an abysmal, fruitless dead end.
