IT lesson 4:Gambling
2. Ah Boh was addicted to gambling and her addiction and obsession led her to believe in many suspicions. Due to her hope of 'striking it big', she doesn't even give money to her own mother. She also believed in suspicions like babies will bring her good luck and copied car plate numbers of cars involved in collisions to buy the lottery with. All these unconventional suspicions lead her to believe that she had a chance of gaining overnight wealth. She was not even remorseful when her mother died in a car accident and only thought of earning money through lottery to pay for her funeral. Her addiction will be the death of her sooner or later.

Did the uncle have to assume any responsiblity in his nephew's death? What about the gardener? These are adults, besides his mother who was always complaining about a lack of money, who could have intervened. I wonder who was worse when it came to supersititons: Ah Boh or Paul?
