Think about this. Imagine a gambler that wins a game and wants to keep his money. Then he stops and never plays ever again in the same casino. But he wants to win some more money. So what if he takes his money to another casino? He could lose or win. Let's say he wins again, and goes around the city playing in different casinos. In the long run his earned money will be 0. So, it's better to win once in the first casino and then stop.
The gambler dies, and his son gets the money. Now his son is a new gambler who lives in a different city. If he plays in other casinos he could win or lose, but in the long run his earned money will be 0 too.
It means that for a gambler to actually win he must win only once, then he must not play ever again, or any other gambler with his money, since entropy is "connected" to that money, because money makes part of the same system.
