Would you gamble your (or your child's) school fund?

[vennali]

I think its a bad idea to gamble anyone's school funds(need not be just your child's). Always remember that you should only gamble the money you can afford to lose. So thats not something that you could afford to lose. Education is one of the most important factors that could make one's life a lil easier in the future. Just gamble with some spare money but not with something that would be a basic necessity.

[vella85]

I would never gamble money that is set aside for something that is important like your child's school fund. People just need to control them self's when it comes to gambling by setting aside an amount each week they want to gamble with and stick to it. And never chase losses because people tend to lose even more by doing so.

[PeRo]

I would not even think of doing that, school funds are school funds, I do not ever gamble if I have limited or low amounts of money or have only money for food and school funds. I only gamble if I have more than enough money for spending(which I never have).

[Superways]

Now I have completed my education and that thing came for the first time to my mind so I never gambled with my school fees and as I do not have any child so for the time being I cannot say that what will I do at that time when I will have a child as no one can predict the future.

Well, I would say that I did this back in 2014. My mother already deposited all the money I need to pay for school for the year and also some allowance for my daily needs. I gambled around half of it on NBA odds. I lost that half. So I lived on really cheap food and really avoided buying anything. I even tried to avoid buying things I need like books just to save money. Was a gruesome year for me, luckily I got through. Wouldn't do that again.

How bout you guys, would you do it?

Hehe...I did it in the past when I was 16. Each months my father always give me the money for my school fund but I used it to gamble and to have fun with my friends. I did it for about six months before my father realized that I never give those money to the school. My father got very angry and didnt trust me anymore when dealing with my school fund.

Lots of students are doing what OP did. They spend all the money intended for tuition fees by partying or gambling. Afterwards, if they need to pay,they create fake projects to ask for more money from their parents. Not a good thing to do but it happens.

an addicted gambler will do anything to gamble even it's your family fund
they always make the situation worse as an addiction will never ended good
to avoid something dangerous like this people have to realize early
go for consult if it's necessary.

Well for we are just the same when i was in high school that instead of using my allowance from school buying pencil ball instead of use my allowance i just keep it and soon ill gamble playing a card game or gamble with my friends and play game like tekken this game honestly is addicted before that you can bet if you can win to them or not..
I am same avoiding buying a food so i choose to buy cheap foods just to fill my stomach..
That right now i realize that thing and i am now a father that i hope that it will not be the same as what i did before..

If I will take risk with my school funds and if I lost them then I will be removed from the school by the administration that is why I cannot think to take any risk with the funds of my school and other point is that mostly my parents conduct that duty for me to submit my school fees etc.

[xuan87]

no I won't do such a thing, gamble is supposed to be fun and only gamble with the extra money you got, I won't gamble with the money I need to spend and I won't jeopardize my future only for gambling, and nobody should do that,don't ruin your future because of gambling, you need to become a smart gambler

I have never experienced that and never will because I don't want to risk anything that is not mine to begin with. I think your mom worked hard for that money and you just gambled half of it. It's good that you managed to work it out and somehow lived.

Does your mom know about it?

[Finestream]

Back when I was new in gambling, I think of gambling for the future of my family and that includes gambling for the education of my children, but I have never come to a point that I will risk the money for the education of my children. I feel like, if I do that it's like I am robbing them and eventually might ruin their future because of the stupid decision I will make.

[Dmitry.Vastov]

Thats not a smart move mate. Its like you gamble your future. Whats done is done. You shouldnt throw away that money because its for your future. Your parents worked hard just to give you that money. You just throw it away just like that. Its a stupid move and selfish. Your lucky because you have money to pay for your school fees because a lot of people dont have a chance to enter school.

Well at least he learned from it. Gambling has indeed destroyed lives, good thing for OP he didn't lose everything and he was still able to pay for school. He was young and stupid, we all have been there. I've had my fair share of loses in gambling. I would advise young ones too to stay away from it unless you want lose money and gain heart aches.

You sir, are a degenerate gambler (or were). I laugh, but not laughing at you. I laugh because I myself have been there, not as crazy as your story, but bad enough. I am still a degenerate gambler, but not Legendary status degenerate gambler. Way back when I was younger, I used to use money that was supposed to be for food and other real life needs to gamble. It was my own money that I earned, but still bad. I remember having to make do with ramen noodles and peanut butter sandwiches, lol. So sad.

Anyway, I've learned to keep my gambling bankroll separate from my real life bankroll. I don't have any kids, but I would never, at least I hope I would never ever gamble with any of my kid's school fund or any funds for my kids.

[nasipadang]

if you really don't have the money savings yourself lebih baik tidak berjudi, if you gamble with school fund or borrowed money it will worsen your situation. I'll never do that

Experience really tells us on what is right, when we are young we are too aggressive because we want to experiment ways to win in gambling and unfortunately we failed in the end, I know we can lose but the value of lessons is very important as it will help us grow as a person and not just in gambling but in real life as well. We just prove something that not everything we want is right for us, and you have to give up things to live a normal life everyone is hoping.

[Oralmat]

Actually, i am not a teenager, and also i am doing a good job in a big brand. But i think you must be surprised that before 2 years, i never and ever see and play gambling, and now i became gambler because of crypto currency. When i know about the bitcoin and other than crypto currencies and i did work with them, than gambling was one of them, which give me fun and excitement, So that's why i want to play it again and i am here. Otherwise, I've no big surprised story.

[Mr. Big]

Nope, I didn't do that, and also, I can't... When I am still studying, I only do that during my graduation at high school, I have a money that time from my savings, but it is not enough and I really really want to bought a guitar for my self, so I decided that when my parents give me the contribution for that graduation rights, I will use it to complete my money to purchase that guitar... Then the day came and I bought that guitar, then after a day, my parents buy me a guitar so I have 2 guitars and I have to sold the other one and my parents already know that I didn't pay the money they gave me... But still, they pay it again... I could consider it as a great adventure of my life, that I can't forget until now... 

[Golftech]

I cant do that even im desperate but i wouldnt do such things i can gamble money that i think spare with my actual needs its not a good thing to gamble the money thats belongs to such important matter be very careful and always think with the outcome results and posibility to lose.
