"Temnikov once told me about the guys at 'Saturn' who spent their entire modest salaries on slot machines. Have you ever seen anything like that?"
"Of course. They were losing their minds. They would ask their parents for money, saying 'Send us some for football boots'. The parents would send the money, but after three or four days, the sons would say, 'I bought the boots, but they tore. Mom, what's wrong with you! Do you think I'm lying?' And then they would ask for more money and gamble it away again."
"They would borrow, but they always paid it back. They knew that if they borrowed, it was better to return it."
"It happened, but I'm not that reckless. I couldn't play around like that - my conscience wouldn't allow me to beg my parents for money."
"I saved my salary, played a little, but that was it. I always had a clear head and didn't get involved in any trouble," he said.
