Gambling is certainly addictive. One of my son's has a friend who really got in to gambling online. He lost his car and his house. HIs girlfriend left him. He did not come out a winner by any stretch of the imagination.
I often think of the saying ''the money in your hand is a sure thing'' and it is. If you feel you must gamble, set your limit and do not go over that limit. Good luck to you.

@MarieCoyle As I have always joked, places like Vegas were not built on winners. lol

Scary, indeed. It's just not good to rely on winning money.

I don't gamble. While you can win big, you can lose everything. Be safe.

The thought of losing money at all makes me ill. So I don't gamble at all.

I have never had as much money to lose in a night as that. If I had that amount, I´m sure that I would have lost it. I am a gambler so the way I measure my losses is the same way that I measure the amount of chocolate I eat. I don´t buy chocolate (and keep my fingers crossed that someone will bring me some as a gift) and I decided that I would only go to a casino on holiday in another country.

I also have a general rule, and that's that if the machines just suck my money down and don't let me play, I walk away. The key for me is to have fun. If they don't let me do that, I am less inclined to give them my money. I never expect to win. But at least let me play a little bit.

My husband and I lost 60 dollars. That's the only time we have ever gambled. It was in a casino on a cruise ship.

I don't gamble. I work too hard for my money to gamble it away. I did go to a casino one time with friends. I had no idea what I was doing but I guess I was winning. I played for 4 hours on $20. Everytime I won I put it back in because I really didn't know what I was doing. My daughter works at a bar and so many people go in there to gamble and they lose a lot of money. It is ok as long as you know when to call it quits and walk away. Some people don't know when do to that and thats when it becomes problem.
