Title: My 2 cents
Post by: moegreen on January 13, 2019, 06:46:10 AM
This is just my two cents on bitcoin gambling.

I made quite a bit of money back in December when the bitcoin price was roaring. I quit my job since then and been obsessed with bitcoin investment.

Things didn't turned out as people hoped . Bitcoin price went downhill and i started to chase my loss. How ? Yeah, as stupid as this may sound.. Bitcoin Dice sites. I have lost over $50k in past years gambling in dice sites like Primedice, Bitsler & Yolodice. My personal life was devastated with sights of depression and bad relationship with my wife.

It was almost like i was somebody else when i click that auto roll. The adrenaline was like a drug that got me high. As much as i regret quitting my job and betting high on auto roll I learnt to forgive myself.

My advice to you guys is that betting minimum on 2X with 100% increase on loss will NEVER pay your bill.

Or how about having a fresh start. Leave gambling. Take consultation from psychiatrist. Seek help for friends and family, be more acting in real life, go to holiday, give time to the family. There are bunches of things you can do except betting.

Get a good day job!

May be you can spend more time in this forum if you love Bitcoin. Keep your 2 cents it's not gonna change anything.

Forget the past mate and move on, what's important now is you were able to forgive yourself on your wrong decision.
That's life, we make mistakes sometimes but we should not stop, instead we have to go on and correct that mistake, it's not yet late, as long as you are still breathing, you can still correct your mistake and live a wonderful life with your family.

I've known a lot of people who quit their job when they made fortune with BTC way back the time you've mentioned but they are wise enough to cash out some of their money and invest into real business, and they made the right way to diversify.

My advice to you guys is that betting minimum on 2X with 100% increase on loss will NEVER pay your bill.
This advise is still not gonna work, regardless of your strategy in gambling, it will not change your chances due to the house edge in dice.
I guess the best thing to do is to obey the basic rules and one rule is to always bet what you can afford to lose only.

It's sad to hear. You know what everyone needs to do something permanent. Otherwise, he has to suffer in the long run. Anyway, it seems you have realized your mistakes. That's great, you can come up with better situation from now. Give it a try as Pamolder said. Everything will be okay.

Crypto, Investments and Gambling should never be a full time job but only a hobby and a bit of fun to kill the time. If we are able to differentiate that there shouldn't be any problems. Sorry to hear about your misfortunes.

You better let that sink in and find a new job and start over or else you'll get into depression and things may become even worse for you. What happened is happened. Now is the time to learn from history and don't repeat your mistakes. Life is full of opportunities, you can still end up as a millionaire if your luck turns back. (I don't mean dice sites for fucks sake) This time invest your money more wisely and if you ever gamble again don't wager more than you could afford to lose. $50k Jesus what the fuck.

Forget about everything and start building yourself, there's nothing left but to keep moving forward there's still life after this, addiction can be cured by self will, find a job entertain yourself with other stuff that you can find outside this activity and if possible not to comeback and chase anything with an easy way to earn as the outcome results can be much worse than you expect or plan it to be.

my advice to all people i see is if you want to be a successful person in whole life is stay away from CHANCE-RELATED things specially stock exchange and Casino games all of them are hoax
the worst thing about human is at start they think they can beat the odds casinos and stock exchanges and thats what exactly they want to reap your money and thrown you in a trash can nobody can imagine how i worked so hard 24/7 and i busted over 100K$ in these . and im living on my last pennies .

i went to deepest of chance related things in my life and thats all about loss and the people are successful are less than 0.00001% . and thats about their pure instincts that can avoid them from harm and lead them to the victory .

start over a job forgive the past and try to save money and start a good business beside of it , im sure you will be successful .
there is no anything in gambling you will be able to analyze thats all about hoax and short term things and you will get crushed so damn hard in long term.

All The Best.

I disagree about the crypto part. You can easily make a living of trading crypto assets (or stock). Most people screw up by not knowing what they are doing or following these random pump groups. Make sure you do your homework (or try simulated trading first: https://testnet.bitmex.com/) before you decide to start trading with your own money. And follow the golden rule: never invest money you can't afford to lose.

Pretty subjective actually. If you have the discipline and funds to sustain then by all means but many don't, including myself.

Sad thing is, you could slowly build your wealth and lose it all in just a few days of getting "tilted".

Quitting your job to use your life savings on gambling?

That's certainly very stupid. There are no shortcuts.
Well, there are from time to time good opportunities, like Bitcoin was 3-4 years ago. But you can't create those situations, and try to get easy money in gambling won't help you either, it will devastate your portfolio

Exactly, but I'm pretty sure he's not the only one. I remembered this article (https://news.bitcoin.com/pr-the-man-who-sold-his-house-for-bitcoin-has-joined-the-moneytoken-advisory-board) which mentioned some Dutch guy sold his house for Bitcoin. God knows how he's doing right now.

You can easily prevent that by setting a stop loss. It's not that hard making a few $100 a day by swing trading. As I said, you do need to know what you are doing.

Bank interests are low and you can't just deposit a few hundred bucks. Also they're only withdrawable after 3 months minimum.

The advice must be, gambling only what you can lose. Gambling is a fun way to spare time if you use the right judgment. You can't expect to quit jobs and gambling for living cause gambling in long term is profitable only for the house...

In my view the problem from you is not how to set your minimum bets but your problem is you were thought you can able to recover your lost from your investment portfolio through gambling and this is your mistakes i think and never considering such as that because gambling is unpredictable although today you win but there is no guarantee you will win again tomorrow

Gambling is never an investment! It is a way of entertainment for adults. For investments, you should have looked at setting up your own mining rigs or something similar to that sort. You got it wrong from the beginning.

$50k!!! That's rich mate!! You have lost almost half of my mortgage value. You could have just converted back those bitcoins into fiat and set up your own business or invest that amount to traditional bank deposits to earn interest. However, all is well that ends well! I am happy that you learned the truth but in hard way!

And that's not all. From what I understand he lost money on his investment first and then tried to make it up by gambling and lost 50k there. It could be a 100k total loss from investment and gambling. I could only dream of such money and if I had it I'd probably be too scared to invest or gamble with it. That would be like my lifeline that I'd be afraid to cut. I hope he will find a way to earn it back.

It will never pay your bill especially if you quit your job which is your last hope but then again who am I to judge you. Most important is that you choose to change and willing to change just for the sake of your family and yourself.

Martingale strategy doesn't really give you a good outcome especially if your luck is too low and it doesn't always go the way you want it. You may win today but you will never be going to win twice using the same strategy.

I'm sorry to hear your story mate. I guess it really boils down on how to manage and control our self in gambling. Been there, lost a lot and almost devastated my relationship with everyone around me. But one day I just snap and decided to quit gambling. I'm back playing again though, but I've change a lot and learn how to control and talk to myself specially if I'm on a losing streak. Hope though that you can recover, might be hard in the beginning, but I'm sure you can do it.

Sorry to know your loss, but I am glad you realize that it's your fully mistake and you learn to forgive yourself. At least, you get the important lesson from gambling itself, and you can try to forget the past, trying to make a new life with your wife, ask her to forgive you and promise never be like what you did before. Everything will change as you start a new life with your family, and don't forget to search new jobs and remember to not expecting more in the gambling game because you already have the bad experience in the past.

You are right about everything you said. But the problem is that inexperienced traders think they have what is takes to be full time traders just because they bought bitcoin or an altcoin a few years ago and then the prices exploded. So, they want more and decide to take up full time trading without the proper knowledge or guidance.

Lol why not just advice people to totally stop betting and just focus in their job.so they won’t have your failure and for sure sooner will be losing wife and children because of just a bad and stupid move

This isn't an advice but rather a warning or tips about how gambling can potentially mess up your entire life.For bitcoin or crypto investment then you aren't the only one
who got rekt when the entire market goes down to hell.Even myself loss huge bigtime but I didn't even make or include on my option to gamble just to patch up my losses.
Yes, it can possibly break even but if not then it would really make things even more worst.

This is the thinking of every addict gambler, because they thought gambling will make a good fortune for them. Its a big mistake to let go of your stable job and depend on gambling. I’m just happy to see you fighting and still alive, and its good that you share you bad experience in this forum and encourage every gambler not to take much risk and know how to control yourself.

Quitting your permanent job is the last thing you will do on a career. This is why a job is your foundation in life because it will support your wrong decision on investment. Sorry for your lost but this thing cant be help. Frankly, you lose double than what you know. Why? Because

First, as you said the figure $50k is your loss.

Second, the bitcoin you bought on peak are now has super negative in value.

That's martingale. It may work for some time, but everybody here knows that it can't work forever. I wish you knew it before you started gambling. Also, most likely no other gambling strategy will pay your bill too. On the bright side, it's good you've learned your lesson, and you are never going to repeat the mistake. The fact that you've lost over $50k means that you knew how to earn the money, and that's a good thing because most likely you will be able to make that amount again. Do it. Good luck!

Let’s learn from this experience, he made a mistakes to depend on a riskier way of earning which is gambling. Making this as a source of income is a great way for you to experience bad things in life, and that’s what happen to the OP. Hoping for a fast recovery of the OP, we can always make money let’s not give up life.

You made some wrong decisions, I thought as well that Bitcoin is something that I should devote my time to, but now I can see that at this period of time it is only a way to get some side income. Believe in yourself that you can quit gambling and don't play dice anymore and you will make it.

that is one sad story
but I've heard it more than once in different variations
people should not take gambling as a way to earn money or recover their losses
this is entertainment, andrenalin, but it can ruin your life easily
I know a guy who sold his house and got divorced because of his gambling habbit
he is living in a rented flat with two more people and struggles to pay his bills
just because he thinks that luck will turn around one day and he will get it all back ... sigh

Hey that’s a really sad story of yours, but as harsh it may sound the blame lies with you no one else however that doesn’t mean it’s end of the world for you. I would advise you to read this book called you can heal your life by Louis Hay, and believe me you’ll see 100% positive results in your life. I also believe this story proves the time proven lesson for all the gamblers out there, never play what you can afford to loose and quit while you’re ahead.

i dont think that pro poker players will treat gambling as a source of income  because even pro's cant always win at all times  though they are more skilled and the have a high chances of winnings compared to other normal players .

Most chance games like slots etc. aren't designed for gamblers to win.

yes they arent designed to give us a stable income because they are designed only for entertainment and also to give us an encentive for playing  .

Making this as a source of income is a great way for you to experience bad things in life

we dont need to gamble just to experience bad things because we did actually experience it on our everyday life .

we can always make money let’s not give up life.

yes money isnt really important  to give up because we can still earn it .

I had a similar story while I was engaged as well, thankfully it wasn't that much of amount and thankfully I didn't needed the money since it was earned rather than bought so I felt not that bad about it but it really helps you get your life together.

When you lose a big amount of money in gambling that becomes your wake up call, there is always this moment where you lose all of your money and you have no more money to actually follow the loss and you have to give a break not because you are smart and that is the right thing to do but because you lost all your money and even if you want to continue chasing the loss there is no money to chase the loss anyway so you stop involuntarily. That stop because of a huge loss is the moment almost all addicted gamblers actually have time to clear their thoughts and stop gambling.

This is just my two cents on bitcoin gambling.

I made quite a bit of money back in December when the bitcoin price was roaring. I quit my job since then and been obsessed with bitcoin investment.

Things didn't turned out as people hoped . Bitcoin price went downhill and i started to chase my loss. How ? Yeah, as stupid as this may sound.. Bitcoin Dice sites. I have lost over $50k in past years gambling in dice sites like Primedice, Bitsler & Yolodice. My personal life was devastated with sights of depression and bad relationship with my wife.

It was almost like i was somebody else when i click that auto roll. The adrenaline was like a drug that got me high. As much as i regret quitting my job and betting high on auto roll I learnt to forgive myself.

My advice to you guys is that betting minimum on 2X with 100% increase on loss will NEVER pay your bill.
Hope many of the gamblers learn from this and not trying to be addicted to gamble. Many investors and gamblers has lose their job, relation and peace of mind because of what has happened to them through gambling. Please used your sense and prioritize what is important to you.

Experience like this gives us the lessons the hard way, we need to loss our money just to understand that we are doing the wrong thing.
When you lose a big amount of money in gambling that becomes your wake up call, there is always this moment where you lose all of your money and you have no more money to actually follow the loss and you have to give a break not because you are smart and that is the right thing to do but because you lost all your money and even if you want to continue chasing the loss there is no money to chase the loss anyway so you stop involuntarily.
We do not consider it big until we end up losing everything or done on what we are doing, that's how we react in gambling because that hope of winning back again all our loses is still with us and instead of following the proper bankroll management, we go beyond and loss control.
Just like the famous song by Kenny Rogers entitled, the Gambler says :

" You never count your money when you're sittin' at the table,There'll be time enough for countin' When the dealin's done",


Gamblers mindset is to win big all the time, they never have a satisfaction and if possible they want to win everyday.

Thanx for the support and feedbacks. I have really sorted myself out in the past few months.

Making plans for the future, going out with friends and family, taking a walk at the park &  basically trying to enjoy the simple things in life.

The gambling took a lot from me but i was conscious enough to not let it sink me to the bottom.

I still got plenty enough to get by and in the mean time look for jobs .

I understand that there may be many who have gone through what i have and sadly like some of you said ' You dont really learn this kind of things until you go through the experience itself'.

I kind of suspected that you still have enough, and I'm glad I was right. Even when we lose what we can afford to, we still feel bad if that amount was big. The most important thing in this situation is to stop chasing your losses (it's a good thing to do at any point) because you are risking to lose much more than you can afford otherwise. It's much easy to say than to do it in reality, but you've managed to do the right thing, and now you can serve as a good example for others.

Story like this isnt actually enough for someone to convince quitting in gambling most especially if they are really addictive . what they need is an actual encouragement from the people around them ( i.e their parents , friends , neighbors , etc  ) 

Still i salute the op because he is doing a good job in improving his life away from his bad habits  .

Gambling itself isnt bad at all , all we gotta do is just play in moderation  .  and more importantly is bet only what you can afford to loose  .

Addiction in gambling can be solved but it needs a big effort from the gambler itself and of course, support from his family. But it will needs longer if he doesn't get any support from anyone and he only fight by alone to solve his addicting. I believe if that person has a strong effort and wants to get out from gambling forever, he will do whatever and as long as he can stick with his plan, I am sure that soon he can solve his addicting.

Many were victims of this circumstances as they pulled out from their regular day job to get in fulltime on Bitcoin. The biggest mistake one can make in life is the mistake of ignorance. OP made money back then in december but never had the second thought of investing into real estate rather still went ahead to gamble with his/her gain, though the truth must be said.
I will advise you to get back on your feet and get a day job and make Bitcoin your second job.

I think it is good that you are trying to search for a job in real life now, because you would be able to keep yourself busy with the job and have less time to think about gambling. You could also try to bring your family members out for a holiday trip once you receive the salary from your new job, as I believe spending more time with your family members would also help you to stay away from gambling.

I'm glad to hear that you still got some to be able to stand up and recover.

Was on the same road years ago, was really hook up, almost play everyday in casino with my salary and didn't save, until such time that I eventually lost my job, it was really a eye opener for me.

So it took me years to really fully recovered from the negative effects of gambling. But I'm glad that I have a supportive family, So I don't know what to do if not for them.

Quitting a day job is never the to focus on crypto to me is never the best thing except one is running an exchange like business because the uncertainty in the market is something one should not joke with. Its even worse for someone who is now putting his hope in gambling. That has increase the chances of failure to an unprecedented level which if care is not taken, might lead to something drastic should things not go according to plan. For gamblers, I think the most relevant advise is to stick to the rule which is ensuring that you gamble what you can afford to lose and nothing more no matter the amount of urge or pressure to do otherwise.

Oh awst very sad experience, play gambling without control will become addicted and the result is lost of all assets. By the way just move on and forget the past.
I advice leave playing gambling and try to go find again a work and ask help to your family how to espcape in gambling addiction becuase I think gambling isn't for you or maybe if you recover if you want to play again just set greed control and play it for fun not for the source of income and don't leave your work as your source of income spent your money ready to lose.

I'm just wondering HOW can you lose money when the BTC is just changing in price? Maybe in trading, it is possible, or perhaps you mean that you lost your BTC in betting in dice. Anyways, That's more understandable. I think it's better to be more specific in using the amount as BTC not as USD because we know it's changing. I hope now you can control yourself and not make yourself addicted to gambling, never think of it as a source of income, and it will never work out.

What's been quoted in the Op seems to be true. What he has lost is much big in comparison to one's lifetime's earning. What he had lost through gambling could give a lifetime spending access. As suggested it is always good to have limits and then proceed on gambling. Gambling is always risk involved, one should not spend beyond his affording capability.

Move on, take a break and take a new  fresh start. Leave behind the unhappy moments with gambling. You should prioritize your family now and not any other else. Gain confidence and try to find a job again. There is no possible, just refrain yourself from anything that may lead you to unsuccessful events. Find a way not to go back with gambling.

The dice sites are to be played only for entertainment and not with hopes and aspirations of wealth.
To lose 50,000$ would make me go insane and my wife would divorce me in a heartbeat!  You are lucky she still loves you.

How could you ever think that you are going to earn money from gambling?
I think that the main reason that pushed you to lose your money was the fact that you resigned from your job, you didn't have any source of income and you were trying to make things right but with the wrong way.
We should always have some safety because Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies are not yet established to our economy, thus there are high levels of risk.

Op should need to learn on how to control their emotion because losing $50k is a big amount of money gambling is for fun sometimes you will win but losing is more and in the end you will realize your mistake Im also being addicted to online casino way back 2017 I lost some money but its okay because I enjoyed playing games like dice, poker and slot machine :)

I feel sad to read your story, it is really lesson-able for us and i also remember that period when bitcoin price was roaring, most of the members are discuss about left the day job and work with bitcoin for earning,, even most of the threads was in bitcoin discussion to work with bitcoin left job. But now bitcoin never reward us and i am also one of them who facing the loss, because i also invested on bitcoin too much but i couldn't earn profit from it. I have only one option to hold bitcoin and wait for a time.

The thing is OP is not wise as other gamblers, he is a victim by the dopamine of gambling. Remember that small amount of dopamine to every thing will lead to some serious addiction unless you have the control to yourself or the people surrounds you can lead you to quit it. Sad to hear about that OP but I guess that's not the end for you if you change perspectives.

Quit gambling, live life, have a fvck*ng job again (make it permanent if you like it), and mostly prioritize your family nothing else will be the one to support you rather than them.

Gambling is not a prohibited drug that you might be addicted, the fact is that managing in your self on how to control your laziest emotions.
Gambling has a positive side though, you can earn a profit with this if you know to ride the risk.

Gambling addiction is the cause of what you had experience and is bad idea for you to continue your gambling life all in the name of winning or making huge profits from it. You just have to quit gambling before you loose all your belongings comrade, but if you can play base on fun or just to keep yourself busy from loneliness, is good.

The bad thing is why quit his job if that's his way to make some earnings and a living? OP I guess has been desperate and think he can make millions in a day (though that's possible but it involved great risks and depending on a luck).

What I want to point is he shouldn't quit his job because even he's on a job he can still gamble (though you have limited time if in a job if you aim to be a full time gambler).

The very first time seeing a gambler who has full control over his emotions, i must congratulate your effort in putting to use the rules behind gambling.

He is probably got addicted once before but now it looks like he learned his lesson from the past and also learned how to control his emotional especially if things didn't go to what he must be planning. For OP, it is just too sad for the first time to lose that big amount of money but time will heal as long as he learns from the fault in his past.

I believed the OP was one of those people that thought crypto currency is a path of a quick and easy money which is why he quit his job and rely on gambling whereas he can choose the bankroll investment which still seems good but since he as learn how to forgive himself the next he ought to do is knowing the rules and regulations involve in every investment he want to participate

Sincerely I can’t begin to imagine how a sane person would loose a whopping $50k. This is a pure case of addiction that needs urgent attention. And he was not sensitive enough to quit till he got to the root end of the money.

Well, I am convinced he would have learnt gambling self-control in the hard way. OP is blessed to have a good wife who is still with him even in this trying time. I hope he heals fast, get a job as you have advised and learn to put family first. I am really sorry for the big amount of money he has lost. It is sad.

Many people lost all their life saving because they got blinded by greed.
The worst part here is that OP lost his job too which will make it harder for him to start over.

Lol. I guess you learned it in a hard way. Yeah, first of all why would you quit your job for gambling? That's the biggest mistake you have made. Never quit your constant and guaranteed source of income for something that has no guaranteed form of payment. Secondly, yeah chasing after losses will just make things worse and I guess most of the gamblers already knows thing. Finally, the 2x 100% increase on loss will only work if you have infinite balance when gambling.

This is just my two cents on bitcoin gambling.

I made quite a bit of money back in December when the bitcoin price was roaring. I quit my job since then and been obsessed with bitcoin investment.

Things didn't turned out as people hoped . Bitcoin price went downhill and i started to chase my loss. How ? Yeah, as stupid as this may sound.. Bitcoin Dice sites. I have lost over $50k in past years gambling in dice sites like Primedice, Bitsler & Yolodice. My personal life was devastated with sights of depression and bad relationship with my wife.

It was almost like i was somebody else when i click that auto roll. The adrenaline was like a drug that got me high. As much as i regret quitting my job and betting high on auto roll I learnt to forgive myself.

My advice to you guys is that betting minimum on 2X with 100% increase on loss will NEVER pay your bill.
There is a life outside GAMBLING so if i were you i will make a fresh start by quitting this area and find some place where theres no need for risking money just to gain more

Go back to your Job and make a living outside gambling

OP has done the opposite. He has quit his job for bitcoin gambling which is just insane. No matter how much good you earn with bitcoin and gambling, these things can be done in part time. So why we should leave the day job ?  I think everything should think twice if they are planing to quit their jobs for bitcoin gambling.

Thank you OP for sharing your story, the ability to share means you have had the courage to let go and start all over and this is a great inspiration. I am sorry about your loss and I hope you will recover soon , if you can, do take advantage of the ongoing bear market in preparation for the 2020 bull run.

I think the greatest mistake you made was quitting your job at that period but well,its past now, just let it all go, get a new job and start all over. I wish you better luck next time :D.

When you google tips on what to do when you suddenly become rich one of the first on the list will be to never quit your job at least not until you feel comfortable in your new situation and are able to produce steady income. You did what most people do. Got too hyped and it lead you to bankruptcy. Gambling is fine but I would never send 50000 to a casino. This is supposed to be fun not a life changing experience.

I believe that accumulated amount that he lost was the turning point  and realized what was really going on with his life. He learned his lesson the hard way and I think everyone has his moment in life where you need to pick up yourself from a devastating point. It just that his was very expensive lesson. I admire people who can admit their mistakes in life and correct their path rather than be consumed by depression all throughout his life and don't make any drastic change for the betterment of his situation.

You will only realize your mistakes when nothing is left, too bad you learned in a hard way. The money you spent is really huge and if ever it happened to me I think im not in my right mind now. But in light of that, you are now aware of what gambling can do to your life if you didnt think of what might be the consequences of being a gambler.

Sharing your story will be a lesson for gamblers who think we can rich quick in gambling, well there's no such thing unless you hit the jackpot in lottery but its one in a million chance.

That's correct, we can learn from his story and as a gambler we don't need to experience loses just to learn.

By considering the risk in gambling, I'm pretty sure if we are discipline enough we will be able to control ourselves and manage our funds properly.
Gambling is very risky for us since we don't have an edge, thus we don't win most of the time, if this reality will sink into our mind, I don't think we will loss more than we can afford to loss.

That is truth.  I really learn from the op story and to avoid resigning from my job.  I have been meditating this for long and I have trying to take the step but something keeps drawing me back and I think trading and gambling should not be depend on as a source of income but as an addition.

Sometimes the hard way is the best teacher

If we have left with nothing and our love ones and friends is nowhere to found because they are sick and tired from our addictions in gambling

Then realizations come and we will find ourselves crying tears because of the mistakes we commit.i am saying this for my own experiences and now i am new person from that said mistakes,thanks for sharing OP and hope now you will not allow that to happen again

Good advice.

But it would be great too if you can advice for someone who has made a lot with bitcoin or gambling that you shouldn't never ever leave your job unless you find yourself stable.

it’s just weird, I try to imagine how unbearable life would have been for him. I never believed people could actually quit their jobs for gambling until I read the story of this OP, it is wrong on every side. One can do the two things together, that’s working and gambling. No matter how much gambling looks like it’s paying, it cannot be compared to a more secured job. Well, I hope everyone learns from the mistake of the OP rather than committing similar mistake out of their own pockets.

yes you are right a lots of people know that they cannot make their profit by investing like this but the people will not carry forward their intelligence something like this situation so that time the people need guidance and help.

The money generated by the gambling industry can really make a person contemplate about doing it full time though i think we all know it's a trap. There will be days when you'll end up at the better end of each and the therr will be days when you'll be on the losing side. Eitherway, if you have responsibilities, it's not an act of a responsible person to compromise a more stable source of income.

well everyone knows that, only people like you dont.
I would suggest visiting professional help

I will also advise doing that, it's hard to get over with that experience the worst scenario is for you to try to get back your losses again, it will become a vicious cycle which you cannot fight, only a professional can do that for you, do it now before it's too late
