Well I don't know how this question will look like but I have to ask, because I need people's ideas in this situation that am in right now.
So here is my question, If you have a family member or a friend with gambling problem, as in he or she is so addicted to gambling to an extend what he or she thinks about is nothing but gambling, if he or she ran into financial problems and come to you to loan he or her money. are you going to loan the person the money?
.
I will not help a gambler financially, but rather advise him to stop gambling. If he begs me more and asks for money, and if he is hungry, I will buy him food with my own hands. Maybe if I give him money, he will gamble again.
It would be better to buy him food so that he understands the torment of poverty. And I will try to advise him to stop gambling, and if he has to give up gambling, I will try to break off relations with him.
