Selling a property to play gamble

[Rockstarguy]

Have you ever sold a property to play gamble and afterwards finds it difficult to replace that same property again?

Normally having the habit of selling home property is not good lifestyle, because by the time one continues with such a life style their won't be nothing left to sell. Selling property to play gamble is not advisable and not a good lifestyle. Addiction can only be the reason one should think of selling property to raise money to play gambling.  That is why people needs to play gambling with caution and their should be a limit of how people play gambling,  and their should be a good understanding on how people see gambling.

What makes people to get addicted into gambling is because they think they can get easy money from gambling by continuous staking of games in gambling. If gambler try as much to understand gambling very well, they will play with caution and follow the gambling principles which will really be a guild not to go into addiction. Selling property to play gamble is very risky because gambling is unpredictable and it will be so painful if the gane turn to be lose at last.

I sold a laptop that I supposed to repair and I lost the money to gambling. I sold a good home theater and used the money to gamble and I lost it. Enough lesson for me not to sell anything and use the money to ever gamble again.

But it is highly not good to touch your parent property and sell to gamble. It is not good at all. If he has changed, that would be good.

Your case is understandable at least, selling off properties in order to have money for gambling is totally not a good idea but you sold your own properties and not others properties. I see majority of comments here saying it's addiction that causes it but I disagree with such opinions. Selling important and useful properties just to gamble has nothing to do with addiction but purely foolishness. You're just addicted and not senseless. Being addicted to gambling doesn't mean it will affect your sense of reasoning to start selling properly to gamble. We have addicted gamblers that are living a normal life despite their addiction. What I am trying to say in essence is to refrain from saying addiction is responsible for gamblers foolish act.

No matter how deep you are in gambling never you sell a property because you will surely regret it when it doesn't work the way you expected.

When the gambler reaches the peak of addiction, anything is possible. There are many gamblers who are addicted to gambling and do not hesitate to lose their last bit of money. Such gamblers must acquire a better understanding of gambling. Gamblers often forget that gambling is not a way to earn money or that there is no certainty even if it takes a long time. I have met some addicted gamblers who have even sold their houses. Moreover, if the history of these gamblers can be discovered, there may be more information about their loses. As a gambler I think we should all limit ourselves in gambling. Gambling with property should never be done for the sake of money.

Gambling is a bad addiction and it is a bad thing in the eyes of society. Because of this, gambling should always be kept secret and gambling should only be used for recreational purposes, but when someone decides to sell his house to gamble, he can considered to be a true addicted  gambler. But how can a person do that?  Can gambling be so important to someone?  Some people take loans to gamble, I did it once too, but it is very sad that someone will sell their home for gambling.

What makes people to get addicted into gambling is because they think they can get easy money from gambling by continuous staking of games in gambling.

Gamblers become addicted to gambling because they think that if they win a big jackpot from here they will become rich, so they only need 1 big win. They continue to gamble with that hope. This is called addiction. Greed of money blinds people. That's how the guy in the op's story decided to sell his house because gambling would multiply his money and he think he/she can buy multiple houses later with that money.

Then I guess that you don't know the damage that addiction can do to someone. This is the reason why gamblers are advised to have self discipline in their gambling activities, and see gambling as fun and not a means of making profit. Those people that are selling properties to gamble have been eaten up with addiction and they find it hard to control themselves because they don't believe that they will lose that money, but rather they think that they can use that money to win back what they lost.

They will use the house as a collateral to collect money for gambling, and before you know it they will lose the money and will still need more money which might finally make them come to conclusion of selling it believing that they can stull win back the money and take back the house. Unknown to them that they have made the greatest mistake of selling the house because they will never win back the money to buy back the house. These are chronic gamblers. Addiction can fustrate and make someone useless and ruin his life.

It is so unfortunate how some gamblers become so addicted to the extent of selling off most of their properties just to play gamble even when they're aware of the risk that is associated with selling ones properties as you may not be able to replace that same property again even in your entire life.

I remembered some years back when an addicted gambling friend of mine sold his father's car and used the money to play gamble, and he ran out of the house to an unknown destination for over 3 years such that the parents where even looking for him to come back home regardless of the crime he committed because he was his parents only male child, so this friend of mine was invincible and without communication for 3 years and afterwards he returned home looking so unkept and his parents saw him and started crying that regardless of what he did that he wouldn't have ran out of their sight and he apologized for his actions and started living a different life. Just imagine the conditions he went through just because of taking a reckless decision that may have even taken his life because no one knows his activities as he left home and moreover he had already spent all the money gotten from the car he sold on gambling, so how he managed to survive without money and help from his friends and relatives for good 3 years is a risk no body would wish to take in life.

No matter how deep you are in gambling never you sell a property because you will surely regret it when it doesn't work the way you expected.

Selling a property is probably an extreme and rare case for gamblers. If someone hasn't noticed they had a problem by that point, then that person's family and friends failed them.

I have never sold property or anything but time to gamble.

[ARTOIS]

I known people who steal anything they can see, even their families' homes, including money, gold, and even household utensils. anything that they can sold just to buy drugs. Also, gambling addiction makes you make irresponsible decisions that put you and your surroundings in danger.
I have no experience in the field, but I know that a good gambler has a strategy that he follows, he is always aware of all the risks. He knows when to double, when to take a break, and when to stop. He is either the winner or comes out with the least losses. everything has a role, not just luck. .
A person must study his decisions before making them, and if he did he must take the responsibilities , everything has limits

[Su-asa]

These what being addicted to gamble can make a gambler do, you don't have to become addicted to these stage when you will be selling of property to gambe.
I could say the parents of the boy are the ones who's doing everything else that makes the boy to spoil to the way he's right now.
He sold the cars and gamble with the money then ran away but came back to the parents and the parents didn't get the chance to correct him.
Addicted to gamble will make a gambler that doesn't have a good idea of what gamble is to always do the wrong thing.
The addicted was thinking if he will win and buy a better car for his parents while he didn't know that gamble is of 2 different options either you win or the others ways. The child is back and he didn't hurt him self, that's the most important thing as there are some gamblers who have been in a serious situation like this but still ended their life.

When you’ve gone really deep. Deep enough to fall into addiction, selling a property would not seem like anything. Someone that has gone that deep would do just about anything to be able to get some money to be able to satisfy the desire they so desperately want.
That’s what addiction does to people. Irrespective of the vices/activity involved, addiction would make you do something you wouldn’t ordinarily have thought about doing. Selling one’s property is not surprising as an addicted person would do much more to get some money. Crazy, but it’s sadly true.

[Slow death]

This reminds me of myself in the past when I sold a lot of things to invest in bitcoin as it was an investment that I consider very safe, that's why I wasn't afraid to sell all my things and invest in bitcoin, but I didn't sell anything to keep playing In casinos, I didn't sell anything because of gambling. even when I got into gambling a few years ago and I was very naive at that time, even then I was able to set a big limit for myself and that limit was that at no point should I sell something to continue playing, I also put a certain money limit in which if I lost all the money, then I would stop playing for a long time and that's what happened, I had losses

but then thanks to the great luck I had, I managed to recover my losses and decided to stop gambling for a long time, but here in my country I've seen stories of people who sold cars to gamble and lost everything and then committed suicide, just last month There were more than 3 people who sold things to throw at the aviator and lost everything, as they couldn't face their relatives so they chose to commit suicide. In this month, which only has 7 days, there has already been 1 case of a person from my country who sold everything to play at the aviator and lost, as he lost everything at the aviator game so he decided to commit suicide. one of the biggest problems with selling a good to keep playing in a game of chance

and that after a person loses in a gambling, the person starts to feel guilty, and as he constantly thinks about that good he sold, there comes a time when he starts to get depressed, and because of depression the person commits suicide. That's why I don't advise anyone to sell assets to finance gambling, don't make this serious mistake because this is the kind of thing that leads to depression and suicide

[karabiber]

Unfortunately, our advice for a gambling addict will not make any sense. Because it is very difficult to understand addicts and gamblers are willing to sell all their assets even if they know they will lose at any cost. Someone who is willing to sell their house for gambling needs treatment.
We must also remember that resources will run out at some point. If a gambler sells his or her last remaining financial assets, there is a very high probability that he or she will commit suicide next. My advice to the gamblers in my circle is always to gamble in such a way that they will not be upset if they lose, no matter what the circumstances.

[sokani]

The height of gambling addiction is taking what doesn't belong to you to gamble. You could sell your own personal properties and gamble with it, which I don't encourage but taking someone else's belonging without the person's consent is the same as stealing. Gambling addiction is like a deep hole, when you keep digging it's difficult to come out and people do all sorts of crazy shits when they're at the depth. Personally, I don't like selling my properties for any reason, and if I don't have need for it, I'll give it out.

[ChiBitCTy]

This sort of topic comes up all the time here on this board and it's really the same discussion answer across the board with these types of topics.  Anyone who's addicted to gambling should seek help so that it never gets as far as you're actually willing to sell your property just to keep your gambling addiction alive.  What's next, robbing people?  Seek help for sure!

Have you ever sold a property to play gamble and afterwards finds it difficult to replace that same property again?

Lol, while some are looking for a property to buy, others are willing to sell it to put all the money in risk with serious risks of getting nothing in return... It's so hard to accumulate money to do so, that I think it would be a big waste of money to focus in gambling instead of building or maintaining a solid patrimony. As we know most gamblers aren't profiting on long run, it's expected most of them won't be able to replace the same property again in the future with money made from gambling. Their only chance will be to recover the money someway else through another means which don't involve betting.

In my opinion it's very crazy that someone reaches to the conclusion they should sell a property to gamble, considering all the risks involved. It means this person isn't taking seriously the rule of respecting their financial limits in gambling. Someone who sells a property to gamble must be desperate for chasing some deep losses they faced in the past and can't recover through smaller budgets anymore.

Let's live gambling and talk about using emergency money to bet. It's very bad how people risk amount that can land them in hospital for gambling, some months ago it was reported in this board how a guy drink insecticide for using money he borrowed from his friend and it turned out that the best was loss and he committed suicide, that's a lost from him and loss to his family. Some gamblers think they are smart but the companies are smarter and that's why they have remain in business for many years because only few of us win from gambling.

I will never sell my property for any form of investment not talk of gambling because it's not like having a job that selling your property will get your a stable source of income. If it's $20 a month I have to gamble, that's what I will use and nothing will be added to it even when I win or lose because it's doesn't worth it, you will run from poor man to becoming homeless.

Anybody who sells his or her property just to gamble, I consider such a person to be someone who has already become addicted to gambling. Two things I always think are that anybody who sells or borrows money to gamble is already addicted to gambling because these people are not doing all this with their normal senses; they follow their feelings to do all this. However, these things make gamblers start running up and down and seeking financial assistance, which is not the normal thing to do.

Some of them feel that after they win the ticket, they will replace what they sold, forgetting that they are trying their luck, and even after winning, sometimes returning the property becomes a big problem for them, so the only thing that is better for all gamblers is for them to gamble responsibly and use the amount they can afford to lose.

No matter how deep you are in gambling never you sell a property because you will surely regret it when it doesn't work the way you expected.

They don't know when they will sell their properties. The only thing they think of at this moment is for them to see money and derive pleasure because they are already addicted to gambling, so even if you tell someone who is already addicted to gambling to not sell, they will still do that, so the only thing is that they should go responsible.

More precisely, severe addiction is one of the few reasons leading to the sale of assets but some other reasons included are heavy loans and excessive dedication to gambling, this dedication is so much that one player feels regretful, hoping to regain justice with what is left but instead of a grand return, it was a worse return. Addiction cannot completely force us to sell assets, only the phone rings as well as strangers with papers that have our borrowed signatures, surrounded by such reasons, the only way to find a bright path is to sell everything to cover everything for a little stability and wait for the restart.

[topbitcoin]

A real lie, by gambling someone can make a profit and multiply their wealth.

What actually happens is that many people lose their money due to their own actions, namely gambling carelessly. They lose money in gambling and they try hard to return the money by continuing to bet, even though they have to take out loans or sell valuables. And that is very obvious stupidity. but I am happy to do business with them gamblers, because I can get luxury goods that are far from the real price.

In gambling, winning is a possibility and losing is a certainty. So it would be ridiculous if we bet using all the money we have, which we might not be ready to lose. Gambling has a fairly high risk of losing money, so we have to be wise and reasonable. So that the pleasure we get from the gambling we do does not turn into suffering and regret.

I have never sold property or anything but time to gamble.

Once you do already reach out into that point then consider yourself to be already addicted or simply out of your mind. You would really be sleeping on the streets soon.  

As long you do have the property that you could sell out then it wont really be stopping or slowing you down and as an addicted person then this would really be done continously
until you would be selling it all and this is really just that sad for those people who are really that ending up on this way. They wont really be able to learn a lesson
until the time that they would really be experiencing the worst. So for those who do able to stop mid-way then its good for them but if not then that would
be ending up on disastrous thing.

Before you decide whether to sell real estate (although - if one is obsessed - it's a bit hard to talk about common sense), you need to assess how successful you can be at betting small amounts of money. Yes, the winnings - if any - will be very small, but it will give an opportunity to evaluate your prospects.
