Nikola Tesla Was Great At Poker
When Nikola was lacking money during his educational years in Vienna, he was often attending tournaments at poker and winning most of them. However, eventually, he began to feel addicted to gambling, which fastened him to a desire to move abroad and start a new life, thus, marrying "with science", as he often claimed.
Unfortunately, he was often lacking money for the production of his inventions, which may make us question ourselves, how much more advanced our world would be today if Nikola Tesla had enough money for pursuing all of his ideas, dreams, and desires.
Most of the "things" we are using today, from RC devices to the development of AI were originally ideas of that brilliant but lonely mind of Nikola Tesla.
I strongly recommend further researches of Tesla's turbines, which are powered by hot air, and are by many considered to be "Perpetuum mobile".
