Ah Boh and the one dollar gambler

1) Ah Boh in Lottery has about one dollar, there’s a “blind man,” the number 13 and ultimately zero dollars to bet. These last examples are taken from One-Dollar Gambler. Show how they also relate to Ah Boh.

In the story the Lottery, Ah Boh would spend all her money to play gambling, and this is the same for the one-dollar gambler. He would spend all his money to play gambling instead of buying the necessities of life which he needs to fill his stomach. In the lottery, even when Ah Boh opened up a post savings account to save monthly, in the end she still took out the money to play gambling. Both characters in both stories are excessive gamblers and would gamble till their last cent without caring for their body, or even if they are hungry, they would rather gamble than to eat. This shows that we must not gamble excessively or else we will suffer and pay the consequences.
