Just as the title say, a man has committed suicide after losing a bet of about #2.5m which is equivalent to $1.525k. according to the story the young man took a loan from his friend which was about $731+ adding to his own $792.6 and used it to stake in an online bet to make some money after undergoing a long time of poverty, unknowing to him that gambling is for fun and not a business or poverty alleviation program, he committed suicide after losing the money because of being afraid of paying back that amount he felt that taken his life will be the best option because he has not hope of paying back that amount..
The question now is that
1) is it necessary to take loan to gamble when we have no intention to pay back?
2) is it necessary to commit suicide if such mistake has been made?
Here is the
linkCommitting suicide is not the right way and I do not think it occurs in every person it is an exception. Actually it occurs for several reasons. And the money is not equally considered as equal to all the people. Some people think 1000$ is a lot of money while a lot of people consider it as small portion of money so those who have considered it a small portion won't suicide for those types of amount loss in the gamble.
