That would be equal to adding fuel into the fire.
Right, I would suggest people not to give out money even if it is for the sake of taking chances on high rollers.
Borrowing money to gamble is equal to calling for the trouble on your own.
True it becomes a mental burden when someone whom who lended could not pay back and now you are having to hunt him for an answer.
First of all, we should never ever borrow money. That become a burden on its own.
For gambling specifically. We borrow money for different purposes and banks dont ask for the reason (usually). But between friends who gamble one should be careful about giving out money.
Secondly, if we do it anyway, we should not put it at stake. There is no fun in losing that money which you have to return. Pay the game when you have some good amount in bank or else skip it.
Its like teaching a person to fish and they will be able to feed themselves. Gamblers should know when to stop and not gamble anymore such that it does not affect their savings anymore.
Losing that money would mean you would lose a good friend and mind you friends are more important in life than money.
- That should never be done in the first place. Do not trust even a friend if you know that the money will be using in gambling.
- Yes, and now the friend of OP will have to think of this problem on how OP will pay him back.
- I agree, if it happens to me and I know that it will only be use in gambling, there's no chance that I will lend money.
- gamblers should know how to control themselves. If not, you will end up having debts until you were not be able to repay them.
