Yeah, many families have been destroyed because of gambling, where the head of the family basically gambled all their money away, leaving the family with nothing.
Incidents like this have happened a lot even before online casinos developed there were already lots of similar cases and what worse they actually dared to take risks by borrowing money from owners or loan sharks in traditional casinos.
It's a shame that many families are destroyed because of gambling and what is really worrying is that a child when his father becomes a crazy gambling addict then he forgets his duties as a father and responsibility as the backbone of the family who needs to provide education, guidance and finances for children but instead prioritize gambling.
When a gambler who dares to take the risk of borrowing large amounts of money just to gamble is the beginning of his addiction and this will be very bad when a regular gambler tries to get a loan to gamble and becomes addicted because he loses all his borrowed money after that he tries to pursue it in any way possible while The pressure of having to pay back borrowed money is one of the causes of gambling addicts becoming crazier about stealing or robbing, even worse, borrowing again in large amounts to catch up on any losses.
This problem is the downfall of a gambling addict who is determined to fulfill his addiction and most addicts who have started to take this bad step will usually end their life and go far away and move to another city.
When you borrow money and then again put all that money into gambling, this means that you are totally addicted to gambling and you are too desperate to win.
I have never seen such a gambler win anything that could help him return the loan and at the same time get any money for this profits too. The gambler will usually lose all the borrowed money too and now he would be helpless as he has to repay the loan as well. Such a bad financial situation will lead to suicide and other social evils.
I wish, somehow gambling addiction could be eliminated from society.
