I have come across Local gamblers who are addicted to gambling and had ruined their selves by themselves til they ran bankrupt yet they borrows money to gamble at all means even While being indebted.
Theses sets of gamblers doesn't have remorse nor conscience about their gambling lifestyles instead their friends and relatives are the ones who bears the shameful consequences the addicted gambler brought to their circle of relationships.
At the virtue of getting the unbearable situations to an end, the relatives broadcasts the chronic addicted gambler at all costs of gambling boards never to give him privileges to gamble in any of the Gambling arenas anymore else they (the relatives) would sue the gambling boards owner.
This is just how recklessness could mess your life of you can't take control to gamble responsibly.
Take note and be aware that your way of gambling could affect your relationships and the circle of your relatives.
That's why the others don't let their parents, relatives, or friends know, because the gamblers themselves are ashamed to let other people know about it. And there are many people who do that until now. Now other gamblers, especially gambling addicts, are becoming more open because of their addiction, so their families know what they are doing in gambling.
And of course, if their family finds out about this, their family will be ashamed of the people who know them. It wouldn't matter if he got a big jackpot because of gambling; somehow it won't be a shame because he won the jackpot in gambling, especially if the winnings can be used correctly.
