I've never gambled, having an addicitive personality I'm glad I never did. I am sure if any gamblers are reading that they would like to put her over a hot stove and eat her.
I don’t bet either, seldom do the lottery even.
Had a family member loose everything, when his wife found out it was too late....the house, other properties, assets all gone.... lost his marriage, trust, everything.... ended up dying alone in America.
A terrible addiction, but one unfortunately I have little sympathy with.
I like a bet , but I can control it ,when I go to my local and do a bet it’s £1.50 ew or £3.00 on the nose that is my maximum,I do get laugh at but as I tell all the punters who spend big money on horses, ie £20 /£30 per bet I’ll go home with money in my pocket and I can have a good day for £20 as you , you’ll probably loose x amount and go home to explain to your wife where your wage went
What can she do that justifys that kind of money, who says you can't make money from gambling
I worked with a guy for a few years who was always trying to figure out betting strategies, I always countered with the statement that the sure fire strategy was to gamble on all outcomes using odds to atteact money to the less attractive outcomes and taking a cut off the top.
Seriously however, a friend from school who I had lost contact with ended up doing time for embezzlement of very significant sums of money from his employer to feed a gambling habit. It can get a destructive hold of people and lead them to actions that they would never otherwise do.
I dont normally bet but have done roulette a couple of times. My strategy is buy about £20 of low price chips and play them until they are gone. If I win anything I put that money aside, dont reinvest it and cash in. Sometimes I have been up and sometimes lost
