Three of these things na something wey I sight say people wan dey try remove body for, to work for person to trade forex and to dey play gamble weda for casino or online. Me myself I Dom reason am for our country as e be like this now I no sure say to work for person fit favour person again especially when e come be say u dey alone or u dey feed family and salary no come balance this one na one of the things wey people really complain of last year.
Another one na forex trading and gambling I just put them together because them dey like brothers, one of my friend call me after the new year, bring him phone and book dey calculate all the money wey him spend for online betting account and forex trading Omo the money too much but that bobo go always tell you say money no gum am but everyday him dey trade forex still dey play gamble. These three things wey I mention sometimes fit control mental health those wey dey trade forex go know wetin I mean that one na when u allow am be addiction you fit dey calculate forex ur brain dey hot sef the same thing with gambling,
So this year how person wey dey do these things want take cope and how much profit and loss you as an individual Dom calculate from your own side and how u dey take control or cope with the addiction.
Make we hear from you person fit dey here to learn from our own contribution.
OP personally I only trade, I don't work for anyone in our country here but as for gambling, bro I gamble,am not addicted to it, I have self control over my gambling habits so am not promising myself that am stoping it soon because am on top of game, you said your friend calculated all the money he spent in gambling and trading and it was much, yea it will be much of course but the thing is, in some case even though your friend weren't trading or gambling, he wouldn't have still save or have those mount either intact or invest them in other stuffs, let's not forget that some people don't use much amount in either gambling or trading so for them to have a huge amount for anything they will have to save up which is also good.
Yea the things you stated can be very addictive and have a huge effect to people's mental health if precautionary measures are not taken but all these things depends on individual mindset while doing them, I gamble but i understand the concept of gambling which is always let go when luck run against you thats when you lose, don't chase loss because it may lead to to addiction, gamble with what you can afford to let go if eventually any ugly unexpected events occurs, I think if one can abide by this rules then such person can gamble without regretting whatever experience he had as he keep gambling.
