Do you think the probability of a working system are lower than the probability of laundering money at the racetrack?

If you start with two billion, it’s relatively easy to walk away from the track with one.

it sounds to me like you think I've said something about the likelihood of a working system, and also that you think I am somehow in opposition to your second sentence, and require setting straight on the matter?

I admit I am at a loss how either of these suppositions could actually come to be, based on what I wrote, so I suppose I am mistaken.

You mentioned getting real money to make a system work.

I pointed out an ordinary mechanism by which a person could find capital.

A winning system could offer better rates to customers of a money laundering service.
