Title: Have you seen someone be empty through gambling?
Post by: WeedGoW on May 06, 2025, 02:41:20 PM
I say from real experience. I am talking about a person next to me. He was the son of a government school master. He was a very good student. And he had a lot of respect in the area. Suddenly he became addicted to the addiction. That is the gambling game called online casino. After entering that online casino, it slowly became addicted in such a way that it came down the street with his family. And he loses a lot of money. And he is got debted. Finally, his father sold his home land and his father paid all the money to the school master.

My question is, are you witnessing such a real experience as well?

How can we know that what you posted is true? I have not heard of anything like this before. It is possible for the son to be addicted to gambling, but I have not seen it possible to the extent that his father got into trouble because of it and become not rich anymore. Or maybe I make the mistake. What did you mean by it came down to the street with is family?

You are saying that the son of a government official has bankrupted himself to zero because of gambling. I think that's quite possible, but I don't think a father would really go that far and help his son, knowing he is addicted. He might be really loved, but I don't know why he got addicted in the first place if he has a loving family.

Yes, you are true why a person will fall in such a situation despite having his family love. We all know that first being influenced by friends and environment, a young young woman starts any kind of addiction in fun but it slowly reaches a big stage. And if the family is having a big problem, the other people of the family will come by him and help him.

A father always takes care of his child very care and even in that care, many children become disobedient to parents and do bad work. But parents always call their children in a good way. So every parents, I think trying to save the child from a big problem. This issue has also been flooded here. I hope you understand the matter.

Yes, I’ve seen stories like that too. Gambling, especially online casinos, can ruin lives. People lose money, get into debt, and hurt their families. It’s really sad when someone with a good future goes down that road.

Yes, I have seen a lot of people fall into different kinds of addiction that ruined their marriage, the future of their kids and all their wealth. Gambling/Trading/Investment can eat any amount of money so be aware of how much you are willing to take risk.

And the illusion of winning is what makes the people to be trapped after their beginners luck runs out.

Addiction can make a wealthy man lose all his wealth to gambling and this isn't something new. I know of a chronic gambler who sold his house just to gamble with and he become broke to the point that he has to go back to his village and start life all over again. This is the main reason why you should gamble responsible and stay safe from addiction.

Yes, totally, a lot of individuals go broke as a result of gambling. they take it so serious, that it leads to addiction, and if someone gets addicted to gambling, your worth will be at risk, I do have a friend who had to borrow money to make sure that he gets all the money he has lot trough gambling, and at the end he still lost the borrowed money also leading him into dept.
gambling should be taken as a source of entertainment, it should not be taken seriously to avoid unnecessary depression.

Yes, I have seen this kinds of people who got empty because of only his gambling  addiction. And I think most of the people once have seen these kind of story in their neighbourhood. As like that I also seen a person in my neighbourhood that suddenly left his house because of only gambling debt. Moreover, due to his gambling addiction getting worse, he started taking various drugs, which made his own life as well as his family's life miserable.

Almost every story will be the same, in that almost the entire family goes through a bad situation because of a gambling addict. If you search the internet, you will find thousands of such stories, which is why gambling platforms are currently launching various initiatives for responsible gambling.

I did saw my uncle gradually sold his prized jewelries when he got home from abroad when he got mixed with friends who gamble. He use to have a semi farm where he has a number of cows and hog farm

He stopped gambling eventually but the business he put up went down since the time he got into gambling and he sold his cars and cows just to pay his debts. He stopped where he now just have mix crops in his land at least. He realized his mistake and not totally lost everything.

I perfectly understand it and I agree with you. When only considered as a form of entertainment, this does not look perilous, however, as soon as it becomes an illness, it takes away everything. What is more, the destruction process is gradual and a person often does not notice it, then making one wrong decision after another, and it is suddenly too late to turn back. If a person has had to sell the house to feed an addictions propensity for gambling, then it is not an affair that just occurred one night, but a deeply rooted behavior that had been condoned. You prove that often reality is very cruel for those who cannot stop anymore. I believe in real life stories more than in moral lessons because the latter shine the light on the fact that anyone can slip if he cannot rein himself in.

If I am the father and I have other children, I will not do such a thing to my other children when the time comes, they have the right to those properties, the only way I will sell it is if he is threatened if not he will have to go to work to pay those debts, that son is a big humiliation to the family, imagine his parents worked to acquire these properties only to sell it because of his addiction.

If I were to characterize one aspect of the journey, I think that a person’s value is not a measure of one’s worst day. Of course, a child, who was an addict and brought a lot of damage to their family, is rather disappointing, but removing all the shades of their worth from the moment of addiction allows forgetting that people can shift. If I were in my parents’ shoes, I would get angry, feel disappointed and even betray The Husband. But after all those emotions are over, then I thought to myself, is there any intention from him to correct all these things? I wasn’t willing to provide him with anything yet, but I also wasn’t ready to walk away just yet. If he can prove that he is willing to step up and fight, I will go with him not to take his position but to prove to him the extent of damage he has caused.

The one I saw was someone whom there parents send to school to study but out of gambling he forgot himself about the reason why he was there and from their he shifted from study to gambling and funny enough the parents were not aware because they only thought that the son is busy schooling, so when he could not graduate from the year he was supposed to and also after another year the parents began to ask questions to no the reason why is like that, so they were able to unravel that the son has been sent out of the school for not meeting the curriculum of the school which is failing so many courses, meanwhile the parents was busy paying his school fees and he was using it for gambling for years till they found out and the parents became so depressed for spending so much without a result.

this is what i mean when i say that not all gambling addicts start as irresponsible and reckless some people were responsible and level headed people before they started gambling and it made them basically lose all objectivity out the window it is possible so i do not believe when people say that there is a specific kind of person only allowed to gamble because they can change in a snap

Yes, based on my previous comments from other threads I had this friend working abroad in a country where gambling is prohibited but still he was able to access and he got addicted though he won maybe millions of our local currency but the problem is that his transactions have been detected by the country's he's in for anti-money laundering and that made him deported and not only that he was also suffered massive debt after all because of addiction and what makes it worst is that he was using a middleman for that loan he got and the lender was pressuring the middleman to repay that debt.

Very right, gambling has really destroyed most people lives in a way that they find it so difficult to amend.
That is why it's very advisable to always gamble responsibly, because through gambling, if one can't be able to control their emotions when things are not falling in line with them, they might make some decision without putting things into consideration and this acts might lead them in depression, frustration, which might hurt them and also hurt others around them.
So whatever one is doing, let it be moderate, gambling to make money, might lead to addiction but bearing it in mind that gambling is just for fun and also to know that its a matter of luck and not a do or die something.

Such a situation occurs in many places. It is more common in the village region now. Especially simple simple people in the village region can not control their greed by playing online casino and in that case they are facing big damage. And people in the city region are also addicted to gambling. But I think people from the village are a little clever. They spend most of the time for entertainment in these online casinos.
I think casino should play for entertainment. If someone starts gambling for money income, he must keep his own control. If he gets more addicted, he may face damage. So you must first control his emotions.

I don't like to always play smart like I'm the best when it comes to gambling or all sort of that but I can tell that I do get surprised how people gamble to the extent they lose everything they have. What happen to your instinct and how to think before doing something that will back fire. If you have it on your mind that you can't beat casino, you will stop loosing money to casino recklessly.

I'd you remove greed from your gambling, you will make the ones you are lucky to win and you will lose less the casino because when you gamble responsibly, there is no way the casino will take away all you have because you will be thinking step ahead of them.

It may happen that when a boy is addicted to gambling too much, he may get into debt after losing his money. Even when the debt burden is heavy, it will be difficult for him to survive. Whether that boy is the son of a government employee or a businessman, if he is unable to repay the money, then a complaint will be filed against him. That is why every parent can help his child in such a situation. Such incidents are not unfamiliar. Due to the stupidity of those gamblers, they are in such a situation. They think gambling as a platform to earn money or if they lose, they spend more money to recover that money. It is quite natural for a gambler's situation to worsen due to uncontrolled gambling.

I have witnessed gambling turn the life of an individual who was doing very well around into someone doing badly and struggling. This person became addicted to the worst kind of sports betting possible, which is virtual games, which are not real, and people addicted to it can often lose a very huge amount of money within a very short time because of how quickly the results of the game come out.

Virtual games are terrible.

For sure, having fast forms of gambling like virtual gaming tends to have a huge effect on anyone and any person involved, basically making them lose sight of the fact that they are gambling. The pace of games is almost never stopped and this keeps the adrenaline flowing which can result in dangerous addictions too. A lot of people become caught up in the narrative that if just one big win comes along, then it will all be fixed, when usually the wins are dwarfed by losses. The problems are worse because these games are so accessible, without any physical or social controls the player can keep on gambling and there is no way to tell when they need to stop.

When the level is already addicted, then it will happen because they will do everything to play and not even just the victory they expect, because even if they win they will use the money to play again.

This is something that we must pay attention to, so as not to become addicted. It is okay to keep playing as long as we have to think realistically about the game.

I've also seen this slow erasing. And seeing someone lose touch with who they were is the scariest thing. When someone becomes addicted to gambling, they only feel numb. It's about how you need volatility to feel alive

What he really lost was his orientation. Modern loneliness, mental pain that isn't dealt with, and pressure to succeed all happen in silence. Everything leads to this. These stories aren't anomalies. They look like reflections. Of how badly we teach people how to deal with pain, find their own worth, and be bored without collapsing. The next story will be the same, but have a new name if we don't do something about that
