Stop gambling now

Would like to share this video which I find so inspiring. Have a gamble free day every one. Everyday when we don’t gamble we are winners.

Awesome video :mrgreen:

This guy is great. He hit the nail on the head about gambling. He is right in every way: The casino/slot machines will re-program your brain to LOVE gambling.

I didn't start gambling until I turned 29. I thought it was utterly stupid to feed my hard-earned money into a machine.

So what did the casino do to suck me in? They offered me $200 free slot dollars. That night I won $4300. That was the start of my roller-coaster ride.

I love this video:

It proves that anyone, even people with a PhD who think they "know-it-all" or "have-it-all" can become gambling addicts as well. No one is safe. No one. :shock:

I totally agree with you RF, no one is safe. This addiction also does not discriminate, it get them all rich or poor, highly or lowly educated, intelligent or stupid, young, middle age or old and people from all walks of lives.
