my dad has been gambling since i was schooling... he lost everything, his business, our house, cars... got into loan sharks, ran away to other town to start anew, but still buying toto, magnum, dmc...

gambling addiction like u said cannot be helped. he is now in SG alone working his ass at 67 yo to fund his addiction coming back once in a month when he felt like it... most of his salary will go to sentosa and mbs...

its the andrenalin and hes not getting tired of it anytime soon

of course have to shelter him la... so old already, no eye see already, its not like im not doing well... just have to start from nothing lo

usually ah longs readily available...

my dad din get home 1 day at genting and not dare to pick up my mum call, so my mum called me and call him...
apparently he borrowed 6k from ah long with his car as collateral, his keys with ah long... so i had to ask my sis to help since she working in genting to get the car back

thats how shitty it went... its a hilux by the way...

those that bring rm 100 or 200 to lose and go home still ok... but i also know some still went out of control after some time...

it is still a good idea not to start....

play during cny is still ok with cousin because its fun... never over indulge + revenge gambling cos the loser is always yourself...
