Am not surprised at the level of his addiction. It is something that most gamblers do those values gambling more than their happiness. I believe there are more cases and scenarios that gamblers went extreme to gamble leaving themselves with nothing and a huge debt. Luckily for his guy he actually sold his parents car which is family. At least family can tend to understand. and forgive but imagine he sold his boss or colleagues car he would still be in serious debt no matter how many years he ran from the problem. However, the struggles and suffer he experience during those periods he ran is enough to make him change his ways and find a new path. Gambling shouldn't be by all means when you have you gamble and when you don't have you leave it. Only gamble when you have enough to spare, money for emergency funds shouldn't be used for gambling. Unless the gambler has made up his mind to accept the consequences if he eventually loses the game.

No matter how deep you are in gambling never you sell a property because you will surely regret it when it doesn't work the way you expected.
Selling property just to gamble is pretty fatal mistake and this is mistake that will definitely bring regret to anyone who does it, moreover gambling is risky place because when you lose all the money will be lost with nothing left.And of course hopes will never always be realized or appropriate because hope is just dream that cannot or cannot be guaranteed to be achieved, we must understand that in life we cannot have all hopes or desires.
From this it is clear that selling property just to pursue the hope of gambling is not the right action.

Have you ever sold a property to play gamble and afterwards finds it difficult to replace that same property again?
No, I never did it and almost did it but didn't because the realization emerged in my mind that all of this would only bring problems or difficulties in the future.

I didn’t have to sell anything for the game. But I had a good friend who was very “carried away” by gambling and began to get into debt and little by little take valuables out of his house and then from his parents’ house. It all ended very badly, he quarreled with everyone and lost respect for himself and as a result, after several years of an ugly life, he moved to another country and started everything from scratch. We no longer communicate from that moment. This was for me an example of how an excessive uncontrolled desire to play and win back can end and how it then it develops into addiction.

Sometimes I do wonder if some humans actually have conscience at all like why would someone sell an asset just because of gambling, an asset that is very expensive and can take you so many years to recover even if at all you can be able to recover it because most gamblers as soon as they sell an asset in other to play gamble maybe they succeed in the process they now form it as a habit of always selling their assets to play gamble forgetting to know that they can't be lucky all the time.
It's really so bad with the length in which some gamblers go just to raise money to play gamble that is a game of chance, and the chances of even losing is greater than that of winning. Damn, some individuals are fucking mad I swear because no individual with the right sense of belonging would go extra mile as selling an asset to gamble unless the person is having some brain malfunction.
I never experience such bad habit and I will never sell any property to gamble because, my job can always provide me money to gamble anytime I want to gamble and, I will never encourage any gamblers to be addicted to gambling because that is the sign of addicted to gambling and whenever you start sell special things to gamble it always bring shame at the end
If you have something like that in mind to sell land or sell car to gamble, just know that it will not bring something good in return because, many people have embarked in such plan to make billions from gambling to buy another car or buy another land but their plans ended up in regret.

You're on the top tier.
GEEZ if people already starting to sell their stuff in gambling. IMO, time to get a rehabs and sharing some story ask some help to manage your financial income. My gambling worst story only make me using all my money.
Never sell any stuff.

For me, as long as the property is yours and no one will be affected except you, then I think it's good, in the sense that I don't care what you will do; sell your own property that you've worked on because it's your own, and if no one will be affected, then it's good because you are the one that will suffer and face the consequences of your actions. But of course, if you are one of the family members of the gambler, then you have the conscience to stop that gambler from going further.
Everyone is right; a gambler who is willing to sell something's precious or hard work just for gambling is a scum, being swallowed by the desire and uncontrollable habit, so those who are experiencing this kind of phenomenon should wake up from what they are doing wrong; don't wait to turn back; don't wait to lose everything from you just for gambling.

That is why when gambling, a person must be able to allocate an amount of money that he can afford to lose. Using more money to gamble is never recommended, especially if he has to sell his property. But most people ignore this and deposit more money to gamble because they think it can give them more chances of winning. Even though that won't guarantee he can win, it could cause him to experience more losses. However, when someone loses their money, it will be difficult for them to recover their losses, especially if they sell their property. He will also find it difficult to replace the same property unless he can get a very big win, which we know is difficult. Instead of losing a lot of money, we should limit our gambling activities.
I can imagine how this happens. When a player comes up with this idea, it is as if he is flying on the wings of inspiration. He imagines how his life will change and will be beautiful and rich when he wins. But the reality will be much harsher, because the player does not think at all that failure may overtake him and then he will be left without an apartment. His main mistake is being overly optimistic and he simply doesn’t want to realize there is another option. After all, we all want to believe in the best.By this I want to say that this is very risky, and the player must first imagine what he will do if everything does not go according to his optimistic plan. And think about the big win only later. There is no need to be an overconfident fool when it comes to real estate and gambling.
That's just one of the least disgusting thing an addictive gambler can actually do. In my neighborhood, I have seen it countless times how most of the young guy will come to the local betting shop an drop their phone as collateral, and start gambling, so when they have reach their limit after so many losses, they would come back like few weeks time to retrieve their phone, while some wouldn't even come back for it again.
Selling properties to gamble is even the least to me, comparing to most addictive gamblers that even go as far as kidnapping their own relative just to have money, so that they can keep up to the life gambling style, because they always feels like they can't do without it.

Selling a property for gambling is not an option for me and I don't dare to do that.
I was not in a state of addiction where I couldn't think of the right things to do. It was a very unfortunate decision for a gambler to be made and this is the result of uncontrolled gambling habits. If not committing loans, some are selling properties, valuable things, and anything they have until they get empty and broke. And don't want to be in that situation which is why as early as possible, we must control our gambling habits because it was difficult when addiction started.
Make those people who sell their belongings an example of why we should minimize gambling. In fact, we can win and have fun using a small amount which is why it is not necessary to sell valuable items for capital.

This is risky and you will end up penniless if there is no intervention, there are countless people who become poor because of gambling I personally know some people, and some of them are close to me.
When we are young we do stupid things.
Thankfully, I am not stupid enough to go that far and sell things just for my gambling habits. For me, those who do that are only gambling addicts and I am far from that. I like gambling but I will never cross the line of selling my properties just to fulfill that urge. We can do so many things whenever we lose our budget for gambling. I like watching films, series, and anime and that keeps me occupied while I wait for the next date that I can gamble again.
We should not worry other people with our bad habits. We are playing to be entertained and not to stress people who are near us and who care for us.
That dude friend of yours is lucky because if that is my father, he would probably just let me be until I bring my sorry ass at home when I cannot take it anymore or I am too broke and my friends would not help me anymore.
He should change and appreciate them because this will be his second chance and I bet he won't do that again. Gambling can really ruin our lives at some point, we must keep the discipline if we want to just enjoy it.

Anyone who gambles with money they can't afford to lose will regret it. Even those who win and take some money will do it again and sooner or later they will lose and get into trouble. It's responsible gambling, if you can't afford to play then don't.
This is just one of the unfortunate stories of people who have gone too far in gambling. Each of us has heard many such stories and probably there will always be such people who will not be able or will not know how to control themselves. Not much to say here other than "Don't be that person, be a responsible gambler"!

Have you ever sold a property to play gamble and afterwards finds it difficult to replace that same property again?
Unfortunately, those addicted to gambling sell everything they have and they don't care about the outcome, all they want is to satisfy the need to get dopamine the reward hormone that will satisfy the feelings of gamblers, they are blinded and they do not even take consideration the hardships they undergo when acquiring these properties, that is why we see gamblers living miserably because they lose everything they have all because of the feeling that they are alive because of the dopamine.
Once you sell your property you are at the height of your addiction and there's a need for intervention because if there are interventions there is a possibility that the individual who is addicted to gambling will turn to crime just to sustain their addiction, their love ones should do their best to implement intervention to cure the addiction before its too late.
Here in our country, I read rumors of wealthy people and entertainment people losing all they have because of their addiction, it can happen to these people it can happen to anyone.
the house to an unknown destination for over 3 years such that the parents where even looking for him to come back home regardless of the crime he committed because he was his parents only male child
He must have known he will be looked for as the only male child. That is one thing about societies that value male child or a particular child above the other, they then to misbehave and that is why the bible said spare the rod and spoil the child. Therefore, parents should train a child so that they don't have to misbehave especially not at tender age.
Have you ever sold a property to play gamble and afterwards finds it difficult to replace that same property again?
No I have not and don't intend to do that because gambling should be a responsible act.
Have you ever sold a property to play gamble and afterwards finds it difficult to replace that same property again?
I sold a laptop that I supposed to repair and I lost the money to gambling. I sold a good home theater and used the money to gamble and I lost it. Enough lesson for me not to sell anything and use the money to ever gamble again.But it is highly not good to touch your parent property and sell to gamble. It is not good at all. If he has changed, that would be good.
I have heard about this a number of times and I keep wondering what could be the motivation for such harsh decision. Whatever it could be, I know that this will never end well because it is like gambling with money you do not have. The fact that one sold his asset alone will generate some form of desperation that will impact negatively on the decision taking of the gambler. So, I do not support or encourage anyone to sell his assets because of gambling. Gambling should be done with spared funds, money we can afford to lose.
It is so unfortunate how some gamblers become so addicted to the extent of selling off most of their properties just to play gamble even when they're aware of the risk that is associated with selling ones properties as you may not be able to replace that same property again even in your entire life.
Selling your property to gamble isn't the right decision to take by any individual that wants to gamble. Any individual selling his proper or that of others is an addicted gambler. When gambling the wins doesn't happen all the time therefore selling properties to lose the money isn't wise. Gambling should be done for entertainment and not as an investments, if we depend on gambling we won't be able to get money regularly. Selling of property can only be done for something useful.
When you sell your property, you are like other individual that borrow money to gamble, you're gambling under pressure as you'll want to make the money quicker so you can replace the property. When the property isn't yours that'll be a crime and you will be punished when you're caught for stealing. If you don't have spare money to gamble, don't gamble but look for other activities that'll be giving you fun.
Gambling can really mess things up. Like your friend selling his dad's car to play that's wild. Three years off the grid, no contact. It's not just about losing money, it's about wrecking your life and the people around you. Selling stuff might seem like a quick fix but it's a road you don't want to go down. Better to reach out for help and find a way to break free from that mess
