    Massive respect to this guy. He lost everything but turned it around and now helps others. No wonder he was top recruit at Sandhurst 👏

    One thing nice about gambling is you never have to worry about getting your money back.

    "for the problem gambler it draws you in because you keep thinking you can win" is it not common knowledge that casinos/bookmakers have a guaranteed edge in the long run?

      Depends what is meant by "guaranteed edge" and what type of gambling. For poker when played against less knowledgeable people, and blackjack re Rain Man card counting in a casino (not online) it is possible for the punter to have an edge.... And although with sports betting the bookmaker has an overround, it is possible for the punter to have an edge if being better at evaluating form into chance than the bookmaker's odds compiler.

      @@markchapman2933 The thing is, whatever money you make from gambling, you will eventually lose at the end. There is a reason the Kenyan government banned all forms of gambling and sports betting. In my country Nigeria (the number 1 betting country in Africa), the problem is so bad and so rampant, you literally see youths gathering as early as 6am in the gambling shops, waiting for them to open. They even help the shop operators clean up, set up the systems, and then they get into it until late at night.

      The average person that walks around may not understand someone's pain until they experience them selves , the worst feeling is when others trying make you guilty or shame when you didn't do nothing wrong to that person which is awful also it blinds your eyes

    I can relate so much to this guys story its scary. For two years my wife too was living with a stranger. In two years i likely lost 500k plus. My first highs came on this 2021 crypto bull run... along with options trading following the covid black swan event. In due time, i gave it all back, walked away from my career... clawing way back ever since

      For him to lose that much, he likely would have had to make min 20k bets. Gambling it’s a bad habit. I quit gambling from today myself.
