Thanx for the support and feedbacks. I have really sorted myself out in the past few months.

Making plans for the future, going out with friends and family, taking a walk at the park & basically trying to enjoy the simple things in life.

The gambling took a lot from me but i was conscious enough to not let it sink me to the bottom.

I still got plenty enough to get by and in the mean time look for jobs .

I understand that there may be many who have gone through what i have and sadly like some of you said ' You dont really learn this kind of things until you go through the experience itself'.

I think it is good that you are trying to search for a job in real life now, because you would be able to keep yourself busy with the job and have less time to think about gambling. You could also try to bring your family members out for a holiday trip once you receive the salary from your new job, as I believe spending more time with your family members would also help you to stay away from gambling.

Bisq Market Day - March 20th 2023

Quote from: moegreen on January 13, 2019, 01:46:10 AM

This is just my two cents on bitcoin gambling.

I made quite a bit of money back in December when the bitcoin price was roaring. I quit my job since then and been obsessed with bitcoin investment.

Things didn't turned out as people hoped . Bitcoin price went downhill and i started to chase my loss. How ? Yeah, as stupid as this may sound.. Bitcoin Dice sites. I have lost over $50k in past years gambling in dice sites like Primedice, Bitsler & Yolodice. My personal life was devastated with sights of depression and bad relationship with my wife.

It was almost like i was somebody else when i click that auto roll. The adrenaline was like a drug that got me high. As much as i regret quitting my job and betting high on auto roll I learnt to forgive myself.

My advice to you guys is that betting minimum on 2X with 100% increase on loss will NEVER pay your bill.

Many were victims of this circumstances as they pulled out from their regular day job to get in fulltime on Bitcoin. The biggest mistake one can make in life is the mistake of ignorance. OP made money back then in december but never had the second thought of investing into real estate rather still went ahead to gamble with his/her gain, though the truth must be said.
I will advise you to get back on your feet and get a day job and make Bitcoin your second job.

Addiction in gambling can be solved but it needs a big effort from the gambler itself and of course, support from his family. But it will needs longer if he doesn't get any support from anyone and he only fight by alone to solve his addicting. I believe if that person has a strong effort and wants to get out from gambling forever, he will do whatever and as long as he can stick with his plan, I am sure that soon he can solve his addicting.

Congrats for you mate, you are now starting to walk on the right path. You make us realize that gambling addiction is not impossible to cure, if you able to overcome that then for sure others can do the same. It's just a matter of motivation and determination. I hope your story will serve as an inspiration for others especially for those people who are already addicted

.

Story like this isnt actually enough for someone to convince quitting in gambling most especially if they are really addictive . what they need is an actual encouragement from the people around them ( i.e their parents , friends , neighbors , etc )

Still i salute the op because he is doing a good job in improving his life away from his bad habits .

Gambling itself isnt bad at all , all we gotta do is just play in moderation . and more importantly is bet only what you can afford to loose .

I kind of suspected that you still have enough, and I'm glad I was right. Even when we lose what we can afford to, we still feel bad if that amount was big. The most important thing in this situation is to stop chasing your losses (it's a good thing to do at any point) because you are risking to lose much more than you can afford otherwise. It's much easy to say than to do it in reality, but you've managed to do the right thing, and now you can serve as a good example for others.

BTC to the MOON in 2019

Quote from: coinplus on January 14, 2019, 11:03:05 AM

I had a similar story while I was engaged as well, thankfully it wasn't that much of amount and thankfully I didn't needed the money since it was earned rather than bought so I felt not that bad about it but it really helps you get your life together.

Experience like this gives us the lessons the hard way, we need to loss our money just to understand that we are doing the wrong thing.

Quote from: coinplus on January 14, 2019, 11:03:05 AM

When you lose a big amount of money in gambling that becomes your wake up call, there is always this moment where you lose all of your money and you have no more money to actually follow the loss and you have to give a break not because you are smart and that is the right thing to do but because you lost all your money and even if you want to continue chasing the loss there is no money to chase the loss anyway so you stop involuntarily.

We do not consider it big until we end up losing everything or done on what we are doing, that's how we react in gambling because that hope of winning back again all our loses is still with us and instead of following the proper bankroll management, we go beyond and loss control.
Just like the famous song by Kenny Rogers entitled, the Gambler says :

" You never count your money when you're sittin' at the table,There'll be time enough for countin' When the dealin's done",

Gamblers mindset is to win big all the time, they never have a satisfaction and if possible they want to win everyday.

Hope many of the gamblers learn from this and not trying to be addicted to gamble. Many investors and gamblers has lose their job, relation and peace of mind because of what has happened to them through gambling. Please used your sense and prioritize what is important to you.

That stop because of a huge loss is the moment almost all addicted gamblers actually have time to clear their thoughts and stop gambling.

Gambling should never be a source of income, unless you are a profesionnal poker player.

i dont think that pro poker players will treat gambling as a source of income because even pro's cant always win at all times though they are more skilled and the have a high chances of winnings compared to other normal players .

Quote from: TheNewAnon135246 on January 13, 2019, 10:56:52 PM

Most chance games like slots etc. aren't designed for gamblers to win.

yes they arent designed to give us a stable income because they are designed only for entertainment and also to give us an encentive for playing .

Quote from: Dreamchaser21 on January 14, 2019, 07:14:01 AM

Making this as a source of income is a great way for you to experience bad things in life

we dont need to gamble just to experience bad things because we did actually experience it on our everyday life .

Hey that’s a really sad story of yours, but as harsh it may sound the blame lies with you no one else however that doesn’t mean it’s end of the world for you. I would advise you to read this book called you can heal your life by Louis Hay, and believe me you’ll see 100% positive results in your life. I also believe this story proves the time proven lesson for all the gamblers out there, never play what you can afford to loose and quit while you’re ahead.

that is one sad story
but I've heard it more than once in different variations
people should not take gambling as a way to earn money or recover their losses
this is entertainment, andrenalin, but it can ruin your life easily
I know a guy who sold his house and got divorced because of his gambling habbit
he is living in a rented flat with two more people and struggles to pay his bills
just because he thinks that luck will turn around one day and he will get it all back ... sigh

I hope 50k was not an amount of money that will risk your life. And i hope you can make yourself up again and quit gambling.
You made some wrong decisions, I thought as well that Bitcoin is something that I should devote my time to, but now I can see that at this period of time it is only a way to get some side income. Believe in yourself that you can quit gambling and don't play dice anymore and you will make it.

Let’s learn from this experience, he made a mistakes to depend on a riskier way of earning which is gambling. Making this as a source of income is a great way for you to experience bad things in life, and that’s what happen to the OP. Hoping for a fast recovery of the OP, we can always make money let’s not give up life.

That's martingale. It may work for some time, but everybody here knows that it can't work forever. I wish you knew it before you started gambling. Also, most likely no other gambling strategy will pay your bill too. On the bright side, it's good you've learned your lesson, and you are never going to repeat the mistake. The fact that you've lost over $50k means that you knew how to earn the money, and that's a good thing because most likely you will be able to make that amount again. Do it. Good luck!

Quitting your permanent job is the last thing you will do on a career. This is why a job is your foundation in life because it will support your wrong decision on investment. Sorry for your lost but this thing cant be help. Frankly, you lose double than what you know. Why? Because

First, as you said the figure $50k is your loss.

Second, the bitcoin you bought on peak are now has super negative in value.

I am sorry for your loss but it is your fault because you made some bad decisions. Crypto has never been stable and quitting your job for it wasn't a good idea. It is good that you have learned to forgive yourself but now you need to find a good daily job and forget about bitcoin gambling for a while at least.

This is the thinking of every addict gambler, because they thought gambling will make a good fortune for them. Its a big mistake to let go of your stable job and depend on gambling. I’m just happy to see you fighting and still alive, and its good that you share you bad experience in this forum and encourage every gambler not to take much risk and know how to control yourself.

This isn't an advice but rather a warning or tips about how gambling can potentially mess up your entire life.For bitcoin or crypto investment then you aren't the only one
who got rekt when the entire market goes down to hell.Even myself loss huge bigtime but I didn't even make or include on my option to gamble just to patch up my losses.
