$47 On Plinko at 2am and I'm already lying about the week

Okay so I need to know if anyone else does this math where a small win somehow covers *everything* retroactively. Had $47 hit on Plinko at Katsubet around 2am Tuesday, right, and I've been telling myself all week that it "basically covered groceries" except I also sent $90 of ETH to a dead contract address last week and have been pretending that was a "test transaction" in my head ever since. The $47 didn't cover the $90. The $47 didn't cover the $60 I put in to GET the $47. But here I am walking around like I'm even.

Anyway the actual reason I'm posting—I've soured hard on this one book I was trying out, not gonna name-drop because I don't want to look like I'm shilling the opposite direction, but their KYC dragged for five days and then they wanted a utility bill from my mom's address from 2019 because I used her wifi once? Meanwhile the withdrawal sat pending so long I started checking blockchair for a tx that didn't exist. Felt like they were hoping I'd reverse it into slots.

So my question is: when you lot hit a wall with a mid-tier site, do you actually warn people or do you just... Quietly migrate back to your main spots and hope everyone else figures it out? I keep wanting to be the guy who speaks up but then I worry I just sound bitter because I lost (I didn't even lose, I got my money eventually, just felt like I was being held hostage by a chatbot named "Sarah").
