But once you have accepted that flying is not cheap, if the instructor offers a few aerobatics without extra charge, it's definitely worth agreeing. Identifying and recovering from free spins, or even paid-for spins, can save your life. Other maneuvers are fun in a properly-stressed aircraft but IMHO a bit pointless unless you are pursuing a career in aerial combat.
As for on-line gambling, when I am prime minister I will insist that the word "lose" be substituted for "play" in all advertising material, along with a clear statement that THIS IS NOT A CHARITY - WE WILL EVENTUALLY POCKET ALL YOUR MONEY.

Alancalverd as pm?, hmm, I don't know. I have a much better idea: I, as a benign world dictator will attack all known global problems and return the earth to some semblance of sanity. Alas in time I expect I would become every bit as corrupt as previous and current dictators have been. It is simply down to the inherent greed in human nature.
