Eliminate all the years of stress, painful liquidation of your assets and loss of your family. Cut right to the chase. Ultimately you're going to lose anyway. Get it over with. We'll throw in a floor show and a hooker. And some drinks. Come on. Do it.

       Clever, but it will never catch on.   

       Could depend on the quality of the floor show actually.
