Two Gambling Stories

[qwertyup23]

..snip
First, in your opinion, what would be a reasonable amount to give his girlfriend? Second, assuming you were the apprentice in the story, would you abandon your training or would you have given in to the pressure to split the money with your boss?

The reasonable amount that the person must give to his girlfriend is $10,000 + some damages (an amount that is less than $10,000). The girlfriend cannot demand around $40 million since her basis for such amount is without merit. Assuming that the person lost the entire amount, then the girlfriend is only entitled to $10,000 + damages. As a form of compromise, the person must at least pay some sort of damages on her part due to the theft that caused.

On the second issue, I would definitely abandon my training. My boss has no authority or whatsoever on the proceeds that I won personally on the gambling website. He is using his authority to abuse his power and demand some sort of funds on his part.

We just need to understand how cruel this world can be regardless of being under gambling or not this is what can happen to anyone at any time from anybody, but we need to know our rights, stand by it and not condole intimidation from any means regardless of the person involved, our right must be taken, anyone nthat cheated his fellow to gamble and wins will never makeba progress with it's kind of money because of the pretence it was built upon by riding on others toss to make your own stand, the two stories gives a direct insight on how a gambler could manipulate cheats on others including the casino if possible and how others could oppress a gambler as well.

Stand when you are in right and also there's no one could really be able to stop you whenever you do make out decisions.You are the ones who do make out such win and there's no right for other people to get
some portion of it which is something that they should'nt really be demanding even if its your girlfriend or other closest people you do have. Stand on your ground and dont let or make yourself do follow
on what other people been saying even if he's your boss, he has no rights on asking for some  part of your winning.Its totally bullshit for someone on considering out on doing so.
You have won that money by your own luck even though you had get or stole some funds but they arent right to say such demand.

It is better for the girlfriend that she found out what kind of person he is before the relationship became more serious, after all for a marriage to be successful trust is indispensable and the boyfriend showed he is not worthy of it.

Not only he stole from his girlfriend in order to gamble, but after he won he was petty enough to only give back the money he stole, those are not the qualities that anyone is looking for on their long term partner and if anything the girlfriend deserves at minimum half of the money if not even more than that.

It is a gambling related story, and what I like about it is that it shows that gambling can help to reveal what kind of a person you are dealing with. Let's not concentrate on what a piece of sh*t this guy is, let's see what has helped us to discover about it. It's gambling. Only half-jokingly, I want to say the following: Wanna marry a guy? Go to a casino with him first, and there you'll see what he really is.

If this test is somehow taken then various things can be realized. But choosing a life partner with such tests will not be very effective. Because people don't give much priority to the outside world when they go to the casino. If a girlfriend wants to examine her boyfriend when he playing casino. She doesn't get him according to her expectation. Because there are many gambler who are very much addicted about casino but he really loves his girl friend. In this concern addiction create a great problem. But what is seen in story 1 is that the man refuses to pay his girlfriend consciously which really affects his personality negatively.

In my perspective, both of them are at fault and surely, that big win wasn't a lucky moment for the both of them because it revealed their true colors and characters. The boyfriend should ought to know that he wouldn't have that kind of winnings if he didn't have the money from his girlfriends, regardless if it's stolen or not, he should know that her girlfriend is at least entitled more than that. And for the girlfriend, she too revealed her true color because she demanded a 40 Million while threatening her boyfriend to leave him if he won't give her that 40M.

With that kind of girlfriend behavior then it would definitely be leaving her.If she truly loves you then she wont really be demanding that too huge and would just wait up whether you would be giving her some
money or not and not acting like that shes entitled nor have that full rights on asking but well there are some point though since its her money afterall.This thing could really be arranged up
well in negotiation between you two. There's no need on making things getting more bigger but if things gets more messy then it would really be just right on leaving instead.
I cant really let go that huge amount of money on someone who do asking out too much.

The guy stealing his girlfriend's money in the story means that the money was collected without the girl's knowledge. If the girl was aware of it, she won't have allowed his boyfriend to gamble with her money. Whatever the guy feels like, is what he will give to the girl. Not 10k or a 40million dollars. Opening up a business for the girl is enough.

About the apprentice and the boss, I won't just listen to him or succumbed to his demands. He should take whatever I give to him. This kind of rubbish will only happen when they see you don't have anyone to speak for you. How can people be this greedy

People really can change when they see money.

And the amount is relative to each person, so someone might do crazy things for $5, others for $1,000, and others for $1M+.

For most people it's just the amount that matters, not if it's the right thing to do.

And money is an attraction for people to get it even in the wrong way.
We have seen how greedy people are to get money, even by stealing money from their own lovers.
Gambling often makes us think that many criminal cases are like those two happening around us.
And as much as possible, we do not get caught in the same situation as the two cases so we can enjoy the money without anyone knowing where the money comes from.

Clearly, respect isn't present in the relationship of the guy who stole money from his girlfriend. They don't know how to communicate well which lead to this scenario. I also don't agree to share an almost half of the chunk of his winnings to his girlfriend. It's still his own doing. He should take the credit and he should be the one to utilize it. But it's also improper to just give back what he technically stole. He could have share a reasonable amount as a way of giving thanks.

Regarding the boss and the employee, the employee could have a gentle-supportive personality in which as much as possible they avoid conflicts. If ever this is really the case, it'll be likely that he'll not enjoy his winning because of people pleasing. It's just really frustrating that some people will take advantage of you just because they are superior and they know you can't really budge.

Exactly, money does not create character flaws on a person, it simple reveals them for everyone to see.

And while some are seduced with very low amounts of money there are others  which need way more money to be tempted, but at the end those people still suffer from the same character flaws, this is why it is so difficult to find people in which we can trust completely these days and when you find a person like that you treasure them as they are incredibly rare.

Nope. If you really love your girlfriend, it will be she what you are addicted to, nothing else. You can be addicted to giving her various gifts, to caring about her, to be around her and so on, and definitely not to a thing that puts her on the second place in your life, a thing like gambling.

I do agree with you. If the boyfriend really loved his girlfriend, he would've called his girlfriend from the very moment he won that kind of amount, treat her in a fancy restaurant and would give her what she deserved because he wouldn't have that kind of money without that money he took secretly in the first place. But no, the boyfriend planned to hide the fact and just want to give her the exact money he took. Anyway, the moral of the story is money will indeed reveal the person's true color.

As I said above, both of them are at fault because on the first place, the man should have avoided an argument if he have just gave his girlfriend the money she deserved. But based on the story shared by the OP, the man has no intention at all in giving his girlfriend a fraction of the money he won and just planned on his own business. Now that his girlfriend knew the story, I'm sure she will be barking until she receive her part. So, I guess they don't really love each other at all because they let this issue to ruin what they had.

This is one example of the tragic things that will happen to someone if they can't control themselves and get lost in gambling addiction.
Doing everything including stealing to get gambling satisfaction.
It was so lucky that he was able to win that much, we don't even know how much money the guy spent to end up winning 100 million.
We can only assume with their problems, because we can't really feel what they are feeling.
Of course there may be many other factors that make her boyfriend dare to demand money for his winnings.
From the beginning all these problems were created by that man, that man who ruined everything they had in their relationship with that girlfriend.
I assumed with that kind of money, of course the guy would leave his girlfriend and find another girlfriend.

People really can change when they see money.

And the amount is relative to each person, so someone might do crazy things for $5, others for $1,000, and others for $1M+.

For most people it's just the amount that matters, not if it's the right thing to do.

That is greediness on the part the guy that use his girlfriend's to gamble after winning 100 million he is not willing to part with 40 million that is 40% to 60 %, I think this is fair enough for both parties had it been the guy didn't have access to his girlfriend money the opportunity of winning such a huge amount of money must have elasped invariably lost his chances.
In the case of apprentice and his boss both stories are similar scenario while the former is also very greedy person and not willing to part with the money at a certain ratio having gamble the latter's money, the money should also be shared 40:60 or 50:50.

[Fortify]

These are two gambling stories that are very interesting

Story 1
A man stole his girlfriend's 10k to place a bet. He won 100 million and returned 10k to his girlfriend. His girlfriend is furious and demands 40 million dollars.

*Read the full story here

Story 2
An apprentice who won 16 million naira on BET was asked by his boss to split the money into two parts. This 50 - 50. As the story goes, people sided with his boss, and he had no choice but to comply. It's important to remember that the money used to bet belongs to the apprentice, not the boss.

*Read the different opinions of people here

First, in your opinion, what would be a reasonable amount to give his girlfriend? Second, assuming you were the apprentice in the story, would you abandon your training or would you have given in to the pressure to split the money with your boss?

What these two stories come back to ultimately is trust, intelligence and doing the right thing - rather than gambling. In the first example it appears that the girlfriend was going out with a thief and that should have been enough to end the relationship, getting her money back was a bonus but hopefully some police action was taken with the crime being reported. I doubt there was any way to make up after that point. The second story to me seems like one of two things: either 16 million Naira is not enough to last you very long without a job (or they could have just quit) or the person was naive & foolish to share the money with their boss because they had zero claim to it, maybe they were working with such snakes it would have been more clever not to tell anyone.

When you are on gambling addiction and did really come into a point on which you are already stealing someones money even if she's your girlfriend then it is really just right that she would be asking
out for some share considering that its her money had been used for you to bet on.You wont really be able to win up money if you havent used her money which means that it is really just
right but we do see that 40% is that much? Yes on some point but its not really that bad deal off, considering that you had won something on the money that isnt yours.
What if the result turns out to be negative or you had lost that 10k? For sure you would really be fucking up yourself on how you would really be repaying that.

Which is by the way the natural reaction when someone earns a big amount when they gamble, the very first thing you want to do is to tell them your success story with someone else because you want to share your happiness with them.

The fact the boyfriend did not do this and instead he decided to hide the whole thing and just return the amount he stole from his girlfriend tell us a lot about him, not only about his feelings for his girlfriend but also how anyone that ever gets to know him should not ever trust him.
