I Hate Gambling

My mom told me that one of my mom’s friends is addicting to gambling.

She just had a big argument with her daughter.
She asked from her daughter $800 to go to a casino 😕

Her daughter didn’t want to give the money to her mom & walked away.

For me, to spend a lot of money to gamble is such a waste.
It’s because you can buy stuffs that are important & useful, than to spend it on gambling.

One of my best friends has a concerning gambling problem, I refuse to lend him money because of it. I’m happy to shout him a bev or a meal but I’d never give him money directly because I know where it would go.
@SW-User: That’s really sad.

It is, but at least he admits he has a problem, and I know when he’s had a big losing streak, he turns into a moody arsehole. Just wish he would break the habit.@MrsMiller31218
@SW-User: Same with my mom’s friends.

Another one lost like I don’t know how much, because on one time she spend $6,000.

Whoa. That’s a lot, you could get a half decent second hand car with that.
That’s a bigger problem than my friends gambling problem. @MrsMiller31218
@SW-User: Yes, that’s really, really bad.
That was only one time playing.

She is a babysitter & she spent all her wages on gambling.
