I saw a news today about a person who decided to end his life after losing around 150K in a single bet, the person is an average middle class with a wife and baby and his annual income will be around 40K (max) then why on earth he decided to bet that big amount on a single bet. It's evident that his greed forced him to take such decision but as a result he lost the life and leaving the loved ones stranded. What's your take on this matter?
It's sad how people can get so caught up in gambling that they don't think about how it will affect their loved ones. This person had a family, but they gambled anyway and ended up taking their own life. Now, who will take care of their family?
This is clearly an act of desperation and addiction and it is why we are all being asked to gamble responsibly and not gamble more than we can afford to lose. Addiction is very bad, if we ever notice getting addicted to gambling you should seek professional help on how to go about it and not keep gambling because it doesn’t end well.
I feel so bad for the family of deceased, the wife and the young child now will have to live without a father and a husband because of his careless irresponsible actions.
