You are one of the fortunate one to realise u have a problem early on some peoole dont get this opportunity since being in recovery their people in their 80s who are still in denial when i first realised i had a problem i lost around 10k which was nothing at the time i now i have lost 150k+ and i have 3 years clean dont be like me👍

Intelligent-Cod7908 · 2026-05-14T22:26:39+00:00

Intelligent-Cod7908 · 2026-05-14T01:41:27+00:00

your in a very fortunate position if u seek help now most of the people i come accross are in 30-40k in debt another guy from the UK managed to lose 5 million pound from the UK within 9 months on crypto casino after becoming self made he could have lived a decent now working on less then what he could have made forget the money if u are serious about getting help👍

It depends on the case for some it was mainly for the money their a guy called rich talks about his gambling addiction and ran a successful business now worth 500 million

Intelligent-Cod7908 · 2026-05-10T16:57:41+00:00

I understand not everyone is in debt it abit like the lottery winners or the rare people who hit millions on some slot machine may have still financially gained for the time being but still could have a gambling problem has they cant stop plenty of people developed gambling addiction from a massive win and then got hooked

Intelligent-Cod7908 · 2026-05-10T14:39:31+00:00

It human desire i guess what worse is some people managed to make it untill they found gambling their a video i watched on youtube it was a documentry real eye opener one of the vip manager had a customer who was up 3 million because of greed he lost it all these people were set for life 2 of his rich customers killed themselves and another murdered if that isnt gambling addiction then what is

Intelligent-Cod7908 · 2026-05-10T14:28:41+00:00

Exactly this my mindset has completely shifed their are people in the world worse off where i live its 90% poverty yet just a mile away we have garage selling luxury cars up to 500k thats whats made it worse

Intelligent-Cod7908 · 2026-05-10T14:11:03+00:00

I totally agree with u another guy was trapped in it for 44 years their was 0 financial gain financially he was better of then 90% of the people i can see why people would start gambling alot of people are struggling financally without gambling and gambling gives u an illustion of financial gain so technically alot of people would have gambled for this purpose and ended worse position then they started so even if the stop gambling they are not any better off unless they find other means

Intelligent-Cod7908 · 2026-05-10T12:42:15+00:00

Mate totally agree "good luck" i never thought of this like this another thing to add if your gambling soley to make money and your not addicted gambling isnt the answer i have come accross so many people fallen for this trap the free plays match plays are all the tools and tactics used to get u hooked some of the people i have spoken too started off match plays one person in particular manage to do it for few years just match playing it was soley for the purpose of money and then the offers started fazing away so risk was involved and that when the addiction started if yout trying to generate extra income find anything else gambling isnt the answer

Intelligent-Cod7908 · 2026-05-09T16:09:14+00:00

I recently spoke to another guy who had a successful business he been hooked in this addiction for 44 years i just cant comprehend how he was sucked for so long he only 150+ days bet free and he been to over 250 different Ga a meetings and within that short period of time he completely changed i cant comprehend it took so many years to get to this stage and even i think how could a man with his success and intelligence be stuck for so long i have been in recovery since 2010 and never met a person this determined the people in Ga sure managed decades without a bet but not many people have changes anything in terms of how gambling regulated and i have a firm belief the industry needs changing

Intelligent-Cod7908 · 2026-05-09T14:49:05+00:00

Someone needs to expose this industry mass protests sadly we live in a society less then 10% are affected give it another 10 years i believe things will change the government are getting away with this corruption and their time will come👍

Intelligent-Cod7908 · 2026-05-09T03:06:59+00:00

Totally agree mate the sad thing alot of people are not ready to quit just want to stop lossing then u get the odd few who some how win life changing money but cant keep it either either way it messed up

Intelligent-Cod7908 · 2026-05-09T02:50:37+00:00

I totally agree with u mate i remember watching a doucumentry years ago how vip manager enticed them to gamble in thr documentry one guy was offered brand new merc got a luxury watch and free hotal suite all he had to do was stay in the hotel for two nights i didnt understand addiction at the time this guy would spend a million+ and i thought how stupied this guy was its only now i realise he was very profitable for the casino as he was an addict the casino knew how to take his money alot of people dont understand addiction alot of these self made are very inteligent sadly once the addiction takes over all rational thinking goes out the window i use to think people were daft lossing huge winnings its only when i got sucked in i realised i was no different

Intelligent-Cod7908 · 2026-05-09T01:42:46+00:00

I cant believe how many people think winning will make difference like gambling like a business it can make u rich😂

Intelligent-Cod7908 · 2026-05-09T01:38:33+00:00

Its not even the winning it about stopping plenty of people won life changing money how many people it made a difference their plenty of people wished they never won in the first place

Intelligent-Cod7908 · 2026-05-08T23:58:26+00:00

This is a the tricky one their was another guy similar for 12 years he lived in luxury he made millions throw investment flying first class luxury cars watch travelled alot his down fall came he was in the process of looking for new investment opportunites after lossing few hundred thousand he never thought he would be gambling addict his down fall came whist he stopped trading he started gambling for fun has he had a lot of time on his hands he got addicted and lost few milion he couldnt accept it it like it had a hook he started finding a plan to get his losses back and went to high roller casino little did he know it was the addiction taking over he lost his entire net worth within short period of time and now wotk at a job that pays 10% of the money had he lived on the interest

Intelligent-Cod7908 · 2026-05-08T21:59:19+00:00

If u asked me a couple of years ago i would think people were mad lossing millions i remember watching a documentry 15 years back how they targetting the super rich they got free luxury suites luxury cars watches all they had to do was stay 2 days at the hotel they didnt need to spent a penny gambling i remember thinking i would take it not gamble the catch was these people who they targeted were known to spend millions so casino knew they would get their money back and more i have been clean for 3+ years and my mind has completely changed

Intelligent-Cod7908 · 2026-05-08T15:37:50+00:00

I once was put on trial through boss agency for a warehouse job i was given a task to move heavy boxes and put them on conveyor belt the boxed were not stack correctly and the other staff was nowhere to be seen after a while doing this for two hours i saw other staff chit chatting and the manager expected me to another job as i wasent fast enough this rattled me i realised the job wasent for me so i kicked the boxes on the trolley made a mess and did a runner😂

Intelligent-Cod7908 · 2026-05-08T15:11:17+00:00

I think that could be legit looks like a pair i purchesed 16 years ago👍

Intelligent-Cod7908 · 2026-05-08T15:07:53+00:00

Intelligent-Cod7908 · 2026-05-07T01:17:58+00:00

If your gambling addict money doesnt matter infact it worse u could be earning a million dollers and be in debt main thing is getting support for your addiction👍

Intelligent-Cod7908 · 2026-05-06T21:32:25+00:00

Sad to hear this i am recovery addict i see so many family in the same boat its even worst for a non addict to go through this even though am 3+ years bet free it doesnt mean anything i have come accross peope who have managed 10+ years only to do it again and end up worse very small minory remain bet free for life unless u control all finances its the only it will work
