You're an experienced gambler, having gambled for many years and having seen and done everything. Part of your experience is taking a loan and chasing losses. What if one of the young new gamblers who happens to be close to you is planning to take a loan?
Will you open up and give yourself as an example of someone who takes a loan, chases losses, and eventually loses everything, or prefer not to because you are ashamed to look back at your bad experience, and people think that you are a weak person?
If you ask me, I will be honest and give myself as an example so that people will believe that it's a bad idea to take a loan, it's not a sign of weakness if you admit your past mistakes.
How about you? How do you see yourself?
What I will do when I have someone close and will take out a loan to gamble is to advise him not to do it, and we know that people like this are usually stubborn because they really want to fulfill their gambling desires no matter what, so if he still insists on doing it, I will not force him not to do it, besides, later he will experience something that might make him realize that his actions are wrong. By trying to remind him and giving an example of myself as the object is good, but the further decision is up to him, but at least I have tried to advise him.
