      Hello everyone.

      I have been gambling since about 18 when I got my first job it started off with sports betting and amounts of 50-100$ I worked the balance up to 9000 and managed to lose all 9000$ of it in one night… You would have thought that would be a wake up call but no I continued to gamble about 90% of my wages each week and accumulate a debt of 20000$. Recently just lost my car you guessed it no insurance. Basically I have got nothing at all except a job and debt at 24 years old hoping to turn it around if I even still have time. Made a budget to repay my debt within the next 5 years and save up some money so I can get a car to continue working I have closed my betting accounts and I am reading stories that are similar to mine and I am at least hoping some people turn it around. Goodluck! lets do this.

      It’s always the same story; we are losing our money with gambling. We hope to win and if we do, we want to win more, till we’ve lost everything, but most of the time we just lose. There’s no possible way for us to win.

      Our mind is preoccupied with money and gambling. We make life harder, everytime we go gambling. We hit new rock bottoms. Then life sucks even more and we get more urges.

      Make the decision to stop this cycle, there’s no end to it. You say you’ve got nothing, but a job. That’s all you need. Just work, pay of debts and find things you like to do with the rest of your time. Gambling doesn’t do you any good, just makes things worse.

      Wish you the best

      Stop gambling brother. Gambling leads to a life of misery as you are finding out. It’s the easiest way to insure failure.
