I lost all my money at the casino (I know it’s stupid) it was A LOT of money and now I have no money. My wages are also heavily garnished so I barely make enough to survive on as is, so it will be hard to replenish my savings. Please share your advice or stories about losing Money too.
Well, you better start living on a very tight budget and keep track of your spending and learn from your mistake.
I never liked gambling. I don't see the appeal, there is no "thrill" like some people say. It's just throwing your money away. There is a reason why casinos are super flashy and have expensive stuff in them, all of that was paid for by suckers.
I do sometimes buy a lottery ticket, but that's not what I'd call gambling. It's wishful thinking.
I don't lose money, because I really don't gamble despite the fact that I spent 15 years in Las Vegas. I was somewhat involved with someone who wanted to be a professional poker player. He was actually a fairly decent poker player, but in all honesty he was addicted to gambling to tell you the truth. You should probably quit.
GO TO A GAMBLERS ANONYMOUS MEETING!
Repeat after me, "hello, my name is OP, and I'm a compulsive gambler.
Never gamble money you'll miss, meaning never gamnle your damn rent and such. I've never walked out of a casino (gone twice) winning but each time I learned more and had a great time, the first tine i woulda left with a fat wad of 50's if I knew about the side betting there, scored 16 black jacks the first hour at the table just the first hour. Ohwells haha live and learn as they say
Your fucked. Never take more money to a cadino than you are willing to lose. You may have to cut expenses for your huge lapse in judgement. No more cable, internet, cut back on phone plan, etc.
The few times in my life I have been to casinos, I do not take a lot of money for that very reason.
Just know when you see a beautiful casino town, it is peoples' LOSINGS that paid for it all.
I guess about the only advice I have is to start keeping real tight track of your spending, like on a spreadsheet or whatever.
