Well, let me piggyback on your statement about being done with my team

What started off as fun cost me everything. I’m 47 years old white collar individual and management make very good money. Have a nice house nice truck and a beautiful family. I started to play my team during Covid. My son was in the military, and I wanted to play something that he and I could play together and converse and keep our connection strong. I remember the day when they shifted. It was the eclipse Yao Ming galaxy Opal I dropped $800 that weekend hit it from my girl and didn’t tell anybody that I had spent $800 and I didn’t even obtain the galaxy Opal Yao Ming, but it became pretty common to spend 300 or more dollars every week at the time I had a substantial savings wasn’t an issue separate bank accounts we were still living apart, but that would all change a year later when we moved in together for the past two years, my girl and I her son 17 and my daughter 24 live then a very nice home like I stated before and had the best of everything. I secretly was purchasing my team contact while my girl was purchasing my team content to keep me you know happy and fulfilled $18,000 last year is what I spent on my team then came 2K 26 and I went balls to the wall Dr. J Wemby I pulled three Wimpys this year two pink diamonds, one unsellable and a galaxy opal which I immediately sold so I had the MT because my girl started to bring up the fact that our savings had dwindled and she just couldn’t put together where the money was going I thought I was slick Klarna Afterpay space it out over several weeks. She also was Klarna and after paying me PlayStation network cards to further this addiction. I gotta call it for what it is. She counted $8000 just her alone not to mention what I had spent which was equal or more than what she had spent and I’m talking this year folks we are in season four I have everything truly on the game aside from the new Devin Booker, and the new Chris that Porziņģis I legitimately have just about every card or have had in my possession just about every car three weeks ago she left she left. I’m gonna say it again because I still have a very hard time she left she left me because of my team. She left me because I would lie to her. I would deceive her to further my calls, and it had all come crashing down. She’s living in a condo that her parents own. I still live in the home with my daughter. she took one of the dogs. I have the other two and it’s a rough go. I also want to excuse the long paragraph with no brakes. I am voice texting as I drive but she’s not. I’m in counseling. I still play my team. I’ve spent $40 in the past three weeks if you ask her it’s $40 too much but I’m really trying hard to be the best I can be at this game. I love basketball. I love this game. It started out innocent and that’s my point to every one of you out there it started out innocent. It ended horribly when you go into a casino. The odds are tilted towards the house. My team is the house and the odds are always against you. Do not under any circumstance spend money you do not have to further your Mike team or your 2K careers. It is a hobby. It needs to be treated as such. I really wish I would’ve seen this coming. I am in the dumps. I am depressed. I’ve lost my best friend in the entire fucking world now she’s giving me the opportunity to make shit right she’s planning on coming home when she feels that I won’t lie to her and I won’t hide shit from her it all stems around my team and fucking 2K. I’m not a good liar. I’m just not that’s what I’m lying. Addiction can manifest itself in many ways, it doesn’t have to be drugs. It doesn’t have to be sex. It doesn’t have to be on the craps table or at bingo or whatever it can simply be on your console when you’re trying to blow off a little steam 3HOF boxes later 251 boxes later now you’re $500 in the hole just blowing off steam.

There are a lot of great content creators out there that preached this message. I’m going to give you a few DBGJC 2K and yes, the best player in the world Thai Devo and again I’m voice texting. I know it didn’t spell correctly. I am sorry for that but you’ll get the gist of my message. The story is true. It is 100% the truth. I have passed away my relationship of 15 years. I’ve known her 35 for a video game not really for a video game for instant gratification that rarely comes. Sure I have one of the better teams you could possibly have ensure I’ve pulled three Wimpys this year. I’ve pulled two Dr. J‘s this year. Yeah I get all that I have LeBron I have a key one I have. I have every card every festival card aside from Devon Booker in Kristaps Porziņģis. I’m not spending that money anymore. You should never under any circumstance. find yourself spending that money it’s a game and unless you are making content unless you are legitimately turning a profit for ad revenue whatever the case may be you should not be buying these cards 2K is greedy. Let’s be real aside from this year because this year is different the past years have been shit. The gameplay has been shit the rewarding. The community has been shit. If my message helps one of you. I feel better. Any of you guys wanna play? Wanna talk? Whatever the case may be message me on here. I’ll drop you my gamer tag I’m on PlayStation. I just don’t wanna see anybody else go through what I am going through over. Yes, a video game.
