This is my personal experience: I am a gambler who loves gambling mostly on sports betting and have had series of experiences which some a positive and others negative but for the purpose of this thread; I am going to talk about my negative experience.

Just a few days ago, the government of my country made an announcement about stay at a home policy which made me get boredom. During these few days, I have been involved actively in gambling mainly on virtual sports betting which I have lost beyond my imagination.

At first, I lost a whopping sum of #30,000 (NGN) in a local currency, I played some games and won with some good profits which I used to Carter for the family but went the next day to meet my Waterloo during which I lost the said amount. This has affected me and caused me a sleepless night because the said money wasn't for me but the entire family for upkeep during this trial moment. I am regretting my loss because the remaining members of the family aren't aware of this loss. This has not happened to me before now until this compulsory self quarantine from the government.

To my co-gamblers: these days are tempting, ensure to be more careful with your savings and "never gamble what you can't afford to lose"

It's been a month now, have you said it already on your family and do you still continue being in this situation? If not, best you should quit with it that'll will lead to more serious problem not just sleepless night but some situations like squabble with your wife and similar things that possible to happen.

I don't agree that it's tempting right now to gamble there are other things to keep busy on even online. Learning is lifelong process go watch some DIY videos that might be of benefits to your home if you wanted to learn new skills there are tons of free courses on other sites and even on YouTube. I don't buy being tempted that much on gambling these days unless that's what you only think that you can get money that easily I will really don't argue with you on that, that's your own choice.
