There is a price to be paid for the education that gambling is the embodiment of a dead end street.
There is no long term winning. It preys upon the weak and vulnerable. It promises wealth and prosperity and delivers poverty and misery.
I spent decades chasing the illusion. Drinking the cult leader's Kool-Aid. Betting on millionaires chasing a ball instead of believing in myself.
Most people reading this can quit today and salvage more precious time and money than I can ever get back.
You can learn the same lesson at a bargain price and in record time compared to me.
Yet I don't sit around feeling sorry for myself. Self-pity would waste even more time. Things happen for a reason. Maybe this was the only way I'd appreciate life the way I do now.
I have a reason to smile every day and definitely do!
Just hoping you don't waste another day, another dollar, or miss a single joy in life while contemplating that next bet.
I gave up one thing in order to gain everything. Please join me!

Great post!
Good good.
But things dont happen for a reason. it happened because of a decision leading to addiction. there is only consequences,not reason. there is no reason post gambling aftermath. dont be confused by being rethorical about what happened after gambling all these years. it is just what it is.
