Actually I have an elder brother in gambling, he basically works in a private company. Received May salary on June 04/06/2024, he did not come home after receiving salary. Three sons one daughter and his wife live in his house, and he gambled all night and entered the house on the next day 05/06/2024 today morning after losing all the salary money. After entering the house, his wife asked him to go to market, he replied, I don't have money, wife said, you got salary, what did you do with the salary money?
In this way, quarrels between the two gradually arise and when it becomes known in the society, it is gradually known that he has played gambling. And he went somewhere far away from home after the fight till now there is no trace of him and he didn't try to contact him till now. So I shared this with you because of how dangerous gambling is in the eyes of families and society. What could be the biggest reason behind this person giving complete money loss?
The problem has never been the game of gambling, rather it has always been the attuited of the gambler towards gambling, according to your story, it could be said that your brother was not disciplined enough to control his gambling habit to the point of knowing when to stop and when not to stop any more because they always thing there's an opportunity to win by the next trial and he keeps trying till he gets all his money exhausted and then end up in regrets which could have been avoided if only he has controlled himself to the point where he knows when not to continue gambling again.
a smart responsible and disciplined gambler will always make sure not to ruin their bankroll all to the casino, and that's why the suggestion most often seen on this forum about budgeting for gambling is important because it helps instill discipline in the gambler so once they have exhausted their budget they will apply restrain and probably exit the casino or log out of their casino accounts instead of staying all dey till they get to exhaust their funds and probably get bankrupt.
