Do you or someone you know addicted to Gambling and don’t know when to stop?

I like Gambling but I know when to stop without putting myself in the hole , but unfortunately not everyone can do that because Gambling can be a serious addiction , I once witnessed a guy winning 10 k on a Progressive slot machine and he was jumping for joy and celebrating with his wife or girlfriend came, A little while later , I saw them again and they both looked miserable. I said Did you guys’ gamble your winnings away? And they both nodded Yes , they both looked like they were going to pass out. I tried cheering them up , even though I was thinking they were complete dumb asses. It just goes to show how Gambling can take over you if you allow it to. Have you or anyone you know addicted to gambling? And how much money did they lose?

I have an uncle that's addicted. Not high stakes gambling but those machines at bars, which is bad enough! He is no longer allowed in a few bars because he owes to many people money and they're not happy about. I yell at my other uncle for contributing to his problem, because he is always giving him money, no questions asked. I haven't talked/seen him in awhile but last I heard it hasn't changed.

Yea that’s crazy , I know a guy that is banned from a few casinos around my way because he owes them a ton of money. I think it’s crazy that casinos offer a line of credit for Gambling and crazy that people sign up for that shit lol

Nope. No one in my family gambles. None of my friends are really old enough to either.

Well just be careful , cuz sadly it could suck you in , without you realizing it , I almost got sucked in a few times but thankfully I stopped myself

[Abbycado]

Yeah, it’s not really something that remotely interests me. I’m not one that would step foot in a casino even out of curiosity.

Yep! He loses at least 3 to 5 bills a week on those gambling machines.

We had a friend who was and it was scary sometimes.

Yea , I witnessed it a bunch of times at the casino to the point I feel bad for some of them that don’t know when to stop playing, and don’t know their limits , Gambling is supposed to be for fun , but unfortunately some people think they will be able to hit this huge jackpot so they never have to work again.
