I am curious what is the one thing that you will never bet with? I am not talking about life because I think almost everyone will say that already but instead I am talking about other things. Like your house, your car or maybe some weird thing like your favorite shirt or the mug your father gave you. Those kinds of things. It would be interesting to see how people value different things within the metrics of gambling.
You will be surprised how most dude's bet anything in their disposal regardless all in the name of gambling, what ever that will make me stake what I will later think of or remember then I don't think it worth it, only what I can let go otherwise am out. However for someone getting to an extent of staking his house, cars or any valuables all in the name of gambling then am afraid because addiction has eaten him deep and he need to work on his self.
