A similar type of thing has been discussed here many times. It is never advised to take a loan to gamble or think to recover your lose by gambling. We do not control our luck. Mostly gambling depends on luck and unfortunately, the player has less chance to win. Winning is never guaranteed. So, if you invest your last money in gambling with the hope that you will win some money so you can pay off your debts with the money you would win by gambling, you should understand that winning is never guaranteed. If you lose it again, you won't be able to pay your debt. You could have paid off your debt withe the money you have just gambled. So, it's better not to gamble with your last investment.

Of course taking out a loan to fund gambling activities is really not advisable and I would probably say that it is a very silly decision for anyone to try to take out a loan just to gamble because after all gambling is just a probability activity that should not be overdone because there is the possibility of much greater risks that of course will always lurk all gamblers involved. Yes it's true and I recognize that gambling always depends on how lucky you are at the time of the session, simply put if you win it means you're lucky and if you lose it means the opposite.

With the basic fact about gambling that has absolutely no certainty whatsoever, this alone can be used as a reason for a decision that gambling should not be taken seriously especially if you force victory because in fact the opposite happens, namely you will suffer a large number of defeats that know no time limit especially if you come with the intention of finding victory to pay off debts then obviously it will only create new problems, in the sense that you will not be able to pay off debts but the problem is even more increasing in terms of losing money that should not have happened, therefore we must be truly rational in looking at gambling.

I have a hanging out friend who is having trouble paying his house installments, he wanted to borrow money from me but I didn't give it to him because I didn't have the amount he was borrowing at that time, I advised him to borrow from another friend but their answer was still the same, finally, he was a little desperate and with the little money he had he put the money into the online slot application, unfortunately, instead of succeeding in doubling his money, he lost all his money because he lost in the online slot application

The valuable message that can be taken from my friend above is never take risks to gamble to pay off your debts, the pressure is very big, the chance is very small that you can pay off your debts, often you end up losing even more and losing your money. look for loans, sell your valuables or look for part-time work to pay off your debts, is a good way rather than playing the small money you have in gambling
It appears that he has resorted to gambling because he needs quick cash to pay off his debts, and no one in your group is willing to lend him the money he needs. Therefore, he has chosen to try his luck in the hopes of winning some money.

I understand that lending money to a friend to pay off their debt is not a good idea as it can lead to more debt. If someone were to ask me for money in such a situation, I would also decline. Instead, I would seek help from our mutual friends to pool money and assist the friend in need. This approach prevents them from resorting to gambling as a solution to their financial problems.
Collecting funds from other friends has been done by me and my friends, but this friend of mine has a bad habit of borrowing people's money but not wanting to pay, as a result we are tired of giving him money

hearing that he was betting his only money on gambling at first really really shocked me, I didn't expect him to be that desperate, even though he only needed a few tens of dollars more, it's a shame he ended up losing all the money he had

I have already gone into gambling in order to collect enough money to pay bills, and it has actually worked for a while. Although the more you do this, closer you reach from the so feared long term, that is when gamblers can't overcome the house and start losing all the progress achieved so far. So, inevitably at some point it won't be possible to collect money to pay off debt anymore, therefore this practice is totally discouraged due to not being sustainable and due to creating more debt on long run.

I was lucky when I tried it, but unfortunatelly your friend wasn't right on the first attempt, maybe because he was too unlucky or because he didn't have a considerable bankroll size to allow him survive in the game for longer. Now he has to work even more just to recover the small sum of money he had before losing everything to slot machine. I hope it's going to be an useful lesson for him to not trust gambling anymore when having to collect money in a hurry to pay off debt. Everyone takes a lesson sooner or later from gambling and even though it's bitter, we have to swallow it.

No offense, but in my opinion your friend took a very reckless choice in counting on literal gambling to solve his funding problem. It simply does not make sense to me he would do that, unless he was very badly informed about how gambling works and the actual odds he had to win over the house.
I makes me wonder whether the shared his plans to anyone around him, by the way, to me this is the kind of behavior anyone in the right state of mind would certainly disapprove and advice not to do it.

Anyways, whatever happens to your friend, I hope he manages to recover from that decision he took and learnt one of the most fundamental lessons about gambling. In the end, noone is supposed to gamble seeking for profits, specially with money one does not actually own.
To me it is kind of surprising how you managed to know about this loss suffered by your friend, if I was him I would be so embarrassed I would rather never to talk to it openly.

I pray that I will not be in this kind of situation, this is a gambler's nightmare you should not tempt your chances what if you win is hard to accomplish if you put pressure on yourself to win, I don't know based on my experience when I'm trying to win, I get a long run of losses but when I'm more relax and leave everything to what will happen, that's when I strike a lot of winning, kind of usual but it happens.

Gambling is never an answer you should never look for the answer on gambling because it will bury you like what happened to your friend, never think of gambling as a way to solve your issue, and never think of gaining something from gambling, because in gambling winning come unexpectedly and when you try to expect to win its losses that will come to you.

It's been said so many times before, don't gamble for money making purposes, I know that money is forever a reason why most people gamble, my question is how has this benefit you so far? Most times you lose and few times you won but do you have anything to show for it? I think the answer is a no, because most gamblers whom purpose of gambling is making money always get greedy, when they win they will always be back to win more.

If you are in debt and gambling is the only thing you can think about, believe me, you are just getting started with debt in your life, you will probably keep paying debt till your last breath on earth, this is the painful truth about gambling with the hope of making more money, you shouldn't do it for the money but for the fun.

You will found peace with gambling the day you accept that gambling can't make your rich when your whole mind is on getting rich from gambling, your mind fixed on the winning will get you corrupt, and you will make haste decisions.

investing money in gambling and hoping that later you can win from it is like betting your fate on something that is uncertain, if you win then you will be able to get more money but if you lose then you will lose all your money. because the results are uncertain, gambling all your money, especially to pay debts, is an action that should not be taken because there is a chance of losing all your money and you will not be able to pay your debts. So instead of taking the risk of losing money like that, it's better to just pay the interest first (if you can't pay your debt in full) don't gamble that money away.

I've experienced this, even recently. I had a loan on the forum and I used it to gamble and it all ran out because I was quite ambitious at that time. It was really bad but luckily I was able to pay back some of my loan the following week. This was a bad experience for me and I will not repeat it again

Of course doing something like that carries a huge risk, it is very difficult to get big wins, especially on slot machines. Slot machines are brutal, if we are unlucky then everything will run out and that will only add to new problems, often when we gamble under pressure or ambition what we get is losses.

Basically, instead of turning to gambling when strapped for cash, your friend could've considered getting a loan, selling stuff, or finding a part-time gig. These options are more practical and reduce the chances of digging a deeper financial hole. It's about making smarter moves to tackle debts without taking unnecessary risks
Borrowing money also needs to consider our own payment conditions, many people mostly ignore this factor and the most common path is to borrow money from society and society is a place where they only seek to exploit and do not consider the moral and emotional aspects, deadlock will turn gambling into a forced choice, and once again society pushes more golden words to rob us of what is left. Debt is something that needs to be localized quickly and reduce the interest rates it can generate, at least provide convincing conditions for work so that the bank can consider and relatives can help

Impatience has pushed so many people into gambling to save a situation but, it has created more problems than it solved. I was having a lunch break with a friend yesterday and during the break, I transferred $6500 he has asked me to his account to enable him carry out a project since he needed that money to complete the money he needs for the project. I got angry when he told me he needed an additional $1000 because he had used $850 to gamble and $150 to settle a bill. Most people with challenges have always hoped gambling saves but there are better options as @Natsuu has noted.

Personal observation shows that 97% of people who gamble under pressure tend to lose and only 3% have been lucky to win while gambling under pressure so nobody should subject himself to gambling under pressure because you may not fall under the 3% lucky ones. The anger of losing in gambling if not controlled can lead to a greater desire to gamble to get back on a high. Thereby, losing everything.

That's the wrong way, if you hope to be able to pay off your debts by gambling, I also once had a friend like that, he was unemployed but he was diligent in gambling every day, I don't know until now I'm still confused about how he financed his gambling while he still had a lot of debt. which includes having debts with my uncle, I also don't know how to advise him even though he also has bills such as his vehicle that he has to pay for every month.

I think people like this will usually have a lot of problems in the end, maybe for now he is still smart in managing strategies for turning his money around, whether from loans from person to person to cover other debts as well as finance his gambling, sometimes he also often wins but he has more experienced defeat, a few days ago he made an offer to me, he wanted to sell his motorbike to pay someone's debt but I didn't buy it because I knew he wanted to finance his gambling again. As much as possible, it is best for friends like that never to lend them money so that they learn and stop gambling.

Look at the bright side, the casino earns money from your friend and it will help the casino to become bigger, the casino employees will get paid and hopefully the casino will not layoff their employees. Cheesy

Unfortunately, there are people who think the way your friend thinks. Its very possible to double or even triple the money used to gamble but the chances are extremely slim and not in the favor of the gambler. You’re more likely to lose your money than to have that win. It’s not a risk anyone looking to pay off a debt or a pressing bill should consider taking.
If I were someone who desperate to double or triple my money, I'd choose to gamble on shitcoins where I still have a probability to earn instead of gambling where you almost have no chance to make money.

Debt payment should be from stable income. Gambling is not a stable income at all.

However this context is very common, because many people take loans to fund their gambling games with the hope that they will double it and pay back with interest while the rest is their money to keep. This does not always work out and when things go South, they take another loan to pay back the old one.

This cycle of debt does not stop and eventually the gambler finds themselves in a tough spot to come out of. Hence taking a loan to gamble or trying to pay back a loan by gambling should be avoided.

This is the wildest thing one could ever think of. Imagine paying your debt with something that can potentially leave you into more debt. Well anyway, some people make it work to them, but this is not applicable to everybody. You're better off just doing it normally like having a job then paying off the debt with your salary, rather than take a chance and a huge risk without any certainty of getting anything back.

maybe that's what happens when a person is desperate and can't really think of a reason to get money, because if he has a stable income, he can't think of gambling to get money to pay his debts. Just like what you have said, the idea of doing gambling to earn money will be a possible reason to lead him into more debt, so It's better to seek another legit and stable income so he can save enough money for his debts, rather than doing gambling which is unstable and we didn't know when we will win and lose

Definitely, thats the kind of experience he will have, lol. One thing I understand about gambling is that you might not win or double your money at that moment when your mind is just glued to multiplying your staked amount and leaving.

At some point, I even started to think that casinos usually read our minds to know our gambling intentions Roll Eyes. For example, if you just want to gamble, win, and leave, that's the moment you will lose all your money, and you will feel tempted to keep gambling so that you can at least gain back the money you have lost so far.

Judging by what you said, @OP, your friend is not a gambler, so why did he feel convinced that he could multiply his money with gambling? I have no doubt that someone might have told him or advise him to try gambling. The lesson to also learn here is that you should not follow every piece of advice that you get from people. Indirectly, some people might be envious of you, and they will do anything to make sure they see you fail. If you follow the advice of such a friend, you can just end up in a big mess.

It's better to even get a job and look for some side hustle that can earn you at least small incom, when put together, you can still pay your debts.

Your friend must have been desperate to try gambling so he could pay his house installment, that's the worst thing you can do, and it's depressing if you lose the money, he could have requested the landlady to give him time and their other ways but gambling is never a good way to try so you can pay your debt, your friend's case is not isolated there are people who out of desperation turn to gambling because they have prior experience that they won a lot of money and it saves them from their debts or monetary needs.

If you are gambling with a huge pressure to win on your shoulders, there's a possibility that you'll go nuts if you lose the amount and based on my experience and I guess the experience of the other players, you are likely to lose if there is a big pressure to win, which is why the term chasing your losses comes in, you cannot accept your losses, so you will try to chase your losses that will result to more losses.
I hope your friend is ok this is the kind of situation that every gambler should avoid at all costs.

For someone who has a stable source of warning an income, It’s much better taking out a loan from the bank if friends and family doesn’t come through than to use what you have left to gamble.

They’ve been tales of people who made similar mistakes and how they regretted their actions as it almost always doesn’t end well. But it seems such stories haven’t made much of an impact on gamblers as some still tow the same path, making the same or similar mistakes.

I think it is not uncommon for people to come and engage in gambling with the initial intentions and goals like your friend who gambled with the aim of winning to pay off debts, however this is a wrong and stupid mindset. Gambling is always nothing more than a game of probability or profit - profit that does not have any certainty at the end of the session especially on winning, everything there is nothing more than a "possibility" and this is the reason why it is absolutely not recommended for anyone to put goals and hopes that lead to earning in gambling, none other than because the risks that are there are far unbalanced in the sense that it is very large which actually makes you experience a worse situation.

For those who come with the aim of winning I am sure that they are too focused on winning so as to ignore or rule out the possibility of risk which is clearly always inseparable in gambling, after all gambling is always about the possibility of two things at the end of the session namely winning or losing, so of course as I said above that it is a ridiculous decision if someone comes with the hope of winning especially with the aim and intention of paying off debt. However, gambling is not a solution to any problem, especially debt, because the risks involved simply do not allow a person to realize their wishes.

that's true, in fact I think many people are like this, they take the initiative to double their money in gambling so that they can have enough to pay off the debt they have, and as you said, this is indeed wrong thinking and more precisely maybe it is stupid, because legally gambling, winnings cannot be obtained according to desire, so when they need money for anything it doesn't mean they have to double it on gambling because that is the wrong action. and perhaps they hope that gambling can solve all their problems.

The habit of gamblers is to ignore and ignore the risks that exist, they tend not to look at losses and risks, but it could also be that they are aware of the risks in gambling, but they can still cover these risks with the belief they have about the big win that will come. got it. I agree with you, gambling is not the solution to all the problems in life related to finances, this is just a paid game and with winnings you can only get a bonus but it is not certain.
