Hey house someone need a few clips here, don't know if a post of this exact nature has been discussed though.
In a situation where the both spouse are gamblers. Husband gambles, wife gambles, how can both of them manage the situation in terms of finance and the family affairs especially when children are now involve so that the time both spends on gambling doesn't affect family moments and affairs in general.
Would it help if one of the couple quit for the other and if that's the case who should quit for who.
Maybe a better question is who is safe to gamble, because there are too many scenarios where people should not be playing and should quit it altogether. Having a fair amount of disposable income is a good start, far too many people who are barely scraping by money-wise still think it is a good idea to spend what little they have on extremely speculative and zero sum games like this. Which is highly dependent on a second criteria - you need to understand the basic math involved with betting, and that you are more likely to be killed by a shark, than you are to make it big in a place like a casino - all the games you're pouring money in have been statistically rigged against, but occasionally you'll get little cookies back that trick your brain into believing you're a winner. Do your research and understand how the numbers really work before giving up your hard earned cash.
