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.
When a person decides to gamble by mortgaging his house and car, he is not in his right mind. Because a person will never be in a healthy state of mind, it is very difficult to think of gambling by mortgaging his last assets, his house and cars. I have seen many people who have taken loans from friends to gamble, lost in gambling and cut off their relationships with friends. If we want, if any member of our family is addicted to gambling, we have to gradually bring him back from gambling addiction.
