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 link
Just imagine what he did to himself just in name seeing gambling as a get rich quick, without realizing the risks involved. That's why they always say that we should gamble what we can afford to lose, as a gambler don't take loans to play gambling, always try as much as possible to gamble what you can afford to lose. Because gambling is not a place to make quick gain, actually what really make him to commit the suicide is because he have check himself very well that he can't afford to pay back money. So that's why is always necessary for us to gamble wisely.
