Gambling debt consumes life!

[Ojima-ojo]

Sometimes I don't really think that gambling is the real reason why some people become indebted and at such I will always put myself in their shoes knowing how well I thrive to keep myself from gambling beyond my financial capacity.


I blame the family also, I don't think is wise to keep borrowing money to someone who have not paid back they previous loans., loaning up to $17,000 is outrageous and should be detected by the family members, although he may have spent that money on some other things outside gambling.

Definitely it will not be possible for the debtor to repay back his debts because he has no means to generate income for himself. There are so many gamblers like this in the world but because no one had figured them out it's still serve as their little secret as no one had known yet. This is to show other gamblers/people that are willing to take such step this particular person toke that gambling without a legit source of income is bad, and the worse case scenario is that he gamble with a borrowed money.

You are right, most of us would not even think about getting involved in something like this and the reason for that is because we are conscious of our responsibilities, there is a difference between having a responsibility and being conscious of it. When you remind yourself of the responsibilities you have and also the dangers of gambling you wouldn't have the idea to do such.

That’s true. The reason why a lot of gamblers indulge in certain activities and making certain decisions is because they feel they have absolutely nothing to lose, so even if they eventually lose everything they have, they’re not answerable to anyone but themselves. This way it becomes easy for them to give to easily get addicted. But the moment they they start being conscious of their responsibilities, they’ll be able to stop themselves from making certain decisions that’ll prevent them from carrying out their responsibilities.

Whosoever is in debt of whatever, doesn't have a restful mind. They will keep grumbling all the time because of the debts they owe.

I don't know how some people behaves, to be borrowing money from people they know that, they can't repay in any time soon. And the part they choose to clear their debt from is through gambling. That's a stupid idea coming who doesn't think properly

[justdimin]

Taking loam to gamble is the most irresponsible thing for any gambler to do simply because gambling is not a business or an investment that you are sure of making money to repay the loan, gambling wins are by luck and the chances of winning is lower compared to the chances of losing. If you take a loan to gamble you will be under pressure to win and if you lose everything you might consider taking another loan to start chasing loses which will keep compounding your dept. Gamblers should use their own money to gamble and the amounts should be something that they are comfortable to lose because you don't have a control over winnings and loses.

Even a gambler would know that, if you lose, then you are going to have to pay a loan back that you do not have the money to pay back. Sure if you win, then you can pay the loan back AND have some money left, but that doesn't mean that you are going to get lucky. If it was that simple then everyone would do it. Get 10k loan, bet it on 2x, win 10k more, have 20k, pay the bank back very quickly so you do not pay interest, so it's like 10k plus like maybe 500 bucks at best case, rest is yours.

If anyone thinks getting rich is that simple, then they are fooling themselves. Most likely result would be that if anyone does something like that, they would lose that bet, and now they have to pay the bank back every single month.

It should be like that, but I cannot deny that in fact many gamblers are addicted and lose all their possessions and even go into debt because they cannot control themselves. I am sure that initially everyone is aware of this, but if someone is addicted, it will be very difficult for them to control it, therefore I always advise my friends not to gamble if they are not ready to restrain themselves.

I don't know what he was thinking before he died. I think he was very ambitious in pursuing wealth, even the knowledge he has now seems insufficient for you to help reduce his costs.
That's why there is. It's better if you also come, see it firsthand how much Oppo's daily income is.

Yes, his family helped him to create such a situation no doubt. But the real culprit is the gambler who hides his losses and keep asking for more money. I see many of them digging a hole like this. Borrow, go cover the losses, lose again, give back, repeat the same thing.

After a big downswing a few years ago I set myself a strict rule. I will never bet with money I can not afford to lose. And I will never borrow a single satoshi for gambling. Taking out a $17000 loan is crazy. The only way to survive in the long term is to be disciplined and have an honest bankroll. His family should have stopped giving him direct money as soon as they saw this pattern.

Gambling is not too harsh to claim our life except we take risk that is beyond our capacity, we have to plan ourselves accordingly in gambling so that things will not go wrong with us as we are having fun with the games of our choice, we must be sensitive enough not to cause havoc to ourselves by some of the decisions taken in gambling.

It hurts me reading this kind of story about people losing their life due to irresponsible attitude with gambling, when they can really enjoy and have fun with the activity without worrying if they losing but when they do the opposite by using what they can't afford to risk and then losing it, they become too aggressive to want to recover it back by risking more money and when you're not working it's family members and friends that eventually becomes the victims of exploitation to feed the sudden addiction for loss chasing.

[nara1892]

That's very sad, but this isn't the first time I've heard such news. Honestly, in my country, such things happen quite often. Many gamblers end up committing suicide in various ways. When identified, it turns out they were stressed out by gambling, and their cases are certainly similar to what you described, OP: essentially, they're in debt.
Gambling without a job or a steady income is like inviting disaster into your life and will certainly end in tragedy. Therefore, never use gambling as a means to multiply your money.

[Nwada001]

What consumes life is not gambling but people's carelessness and the risk they took without any control measure being in place, we cannot be doing things the way we want all because we want to have fun in gambling, while knowing that there are other things that will be at stake if we fail to plan well or accordingly, there are some people that shouldn't be even identified as a gambler because of their kind of personal behavior that lacks morals in anything they are doing.

Gambling addiction, in most cases, is not gambling for fun and entertainment only, it’s mostly them aiming to make profit out of it. One wrong decision is all that it takes to directly drag them into an addiction stage.

Some make the mistake of using the money meant for other things, which lost can push them into chasing losses while they try to recover it. The loss keeps on increasing, and they never want to keep up and accept their fate. It’s easier to avoid getting addicted than to get out of addiction.

Sometimes when I think about this situation deeply, we can't blame his family entirely because we have not hard they own side of the story, the gambler may have being lieing to them that he is loaning the money from another thing but gambling with it behind they back.


I am thinking of the possibility of his family not really being aware of his gambling lifestyle, because they won't keep borrowing money to someone who is gambling it away.

Lenders are also running a business, they want their money back. However the greed for gambling and the hope that the next bet is going to be their jackpot drives the gamblers to make these wrong decisions.

While people are always blaming gamblers, to some extent the lenders also need to exercise caution as to how many open loans a person has and their likely chance to default.

Bad thing is that in local communities this rarely exists.

For the sake of their own mental health and life, a gambler should be careful of how much they are putting at stake.

putting yourself in these environments is always a very bad thing, I believe that pathological players with a problem should get help and they are the victims of this ugly and wrong system which always allows bad people to take advantage of weak people who play and lose control

[Jubilee58]

I think when gambling addiction has reached the extent of getting indepthed, it has reached an extreme case. However, I have seen such a case, and is not really a good impression about a gambler, and people like that are the reason why they generalize gamblers as irresponsible people.
All gamblers should fear, and avoid gambling addiction, it is a habit that can put you in total confusion, and unknowingly to the victims.
We should all encourage, and welcome responsible gambling, because it's benefits is far better than getting addicted.

Basically, I think this boy may have become very addicted to gambling and he thought that once he gets a big win, he will pay off his entire debt but that is not the case anymore.

Sometimes I wonder what gives people the confident to believe that they will win and recover their loses, and as a result of this they keep gambling till they get addicted without even realizing their dream.

 Such greed is pushing many people to death. Nowadays, when people enter casinos, they do not have control over themselves, so they lose control. When gambling with debt, it is the most risky, which is for the family and the children of the family. Therefore, before gambling, one should not gamble with debt and should control oneself. Gambling with debt really takes a person to a deeper level and puts him under mental pressure, so at one point, without looking at any situation, he finally chooses the path of death. That is why everyone should gamble carefully and should gamble not for earning but for entertainment and fun.

Gambling without having self control it tantamount to failure and loses. When you don't have control of yourself, you'll look like a dry leave than can be carried by wind. We really need to take be  careful how we take gambling serious in other not to take loan and put our families into danger. Or pitting other people life at risk, people one singular act of 1 person can destroy many people when not handle properly.

Recently, I learned from some local people yesterday that a tragic incident had occurred in a village near our area and it is a very sad incident.
A young man had been involved in casinos for a long time and he didn't do any work. Instead, he borrowed money from his family, friends, and even borrowed money to play at casinos, but he kept this secret so that no one knew about it.
At one point, his debt reached around $17,000--$18,000. Since he had no permanent source of income, it became almost impossible for him to repay the loan. Later, even though he asked his family for money, their financial condition was not that good, which made it impossible for him to repay the loan. Instead, he constantly came to the homes of those who had given him loans and threatened them in various ways, putting a lot of pressure on the family for money. When the family came to know about the matter completely and started putting a lot of mental pressure on the young man, but the boy did not get any direction and at the last moment he died with the burden of debt on his head.
According to the locals, he lost his life because he could not bear the financial and emotional stress. This incident made me realize that gambling never harms just one person, it can ruin an entire family even end their life.

To be frankly speaking, borrowing money to gamble was the worst mistake this young man did, while thinking he could hit a jackpot and repay his borrowed money, when we all know that winning in gambling is not always that easy as it seems. And I won't blame gambling entirely in this case, but I will blame the young man's inability to know that risk associated with gambling and go into it with an amount he can conveniently afford losing without going into debt, since it's outcome not always predictable as it seems. So in a nutshell, this should serve as a lesson to all newbie gamblers to not borrow money to gamble.

That is why everyone should gamble carefully and should gamble not for earning but for entertainment and fun.

These is true, but the problem is that most gamblers wouldn't listen to this instruction that is why some gamblers are still falling victim to addiction. I believe there are some gamblers who are maintaining this rules, while majority are tied with profit even to a point where they no longer realize why gamble was created.

It is true that gambling is paid form  of entertainment, but since it's a game of chance/ luck we need to use our initiative whenever we find ourselves around it because gambling is very tempting.

[leonair]

That is why everyone should gamble carefully and should gamble not for earning but for entertainment and fun.

These are absolutely true words, because anyone who begins playing online casinos or engaging in betting should be fully aware of the risks involved.
And I always say that the very first step in proper and safe gambling is understanding how vulnerable a gambler is to addiction. If they're an alcoholic or have a family member who drinks, they should understand that addictions pose a danger, and of course, gambling is a real test of endurance. Behind the pretty pictures lies a powerful psychological test that not everyone can withstand.

Addiction forces a gambler to take all kinds of risks. Controlling oneself is the biggest challenge in gambling. If I share my experience today, it is that I received a payment of $60 and gambled with it and I enjoyed gambling for about 2 hours and made some profit but when I started losing and reached $60 again, I stopped playing and withdrew my money. And this was possible because I have control over myself. When does a gambler gamble with a loan? When he is very addicted and cannot stay away from gambling and he loses everything and then borrows money to gamble. Which at one point takes him to the point of suicide

That is why everyone should gamble carefully and should gamble not for earning but for entertainment and fun.

That is the bad side about gambling addiction. You dream of making back all the money you have lost so you pay back all your depts.

First place, borrowing money to gamble is a big no. People should refrain from such. For something as risky as gambling, you should focus on using only money available to you. Don't think when you borrow you will be able to make it back.

And lastly, death shouldn't always be the last option for gamblers who are in deep trouble. You are leaving a painful experience not just for yourself but for those you left behind who lived you.

[danadc]

These are very regrettable things. Everyone has their own burdens and experiences things as they see fit, but the family should have told him what they thought, but not to the point of almost killing him. The damage was already done. The solution was to find the money and then make him pay, whether through hard work or other means, but to make him pay. Now the debt would pass to the family. The solution isn't death, because the problem is just transferred.
