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.

Betting your house or your car is simply stupid. Do you really want to take the risk of becoming homeless just because you want to win in gambling?
Betting your favorite souvenir(like a shirt or mug) doesn't make any sense, because those items won't have any value to the other players( I assume that you are talking about betting stuff on a poker game).
I would only bet money(fiat and crypto) on gambling games. Maybe I could bet NFTs as well, but unfortunately I don't have any valuable NFTs. Grin Some people would bet CS:GO skins, maybe I could also bet CS:GO skins, if I was an active CS:GO player and I had spent some money on Steam for buying skins back in the day. I don't play videogames anymore.


I honestly fear and don’t understand such big bets as a house or a car. Although, for example, if I had 4 houses and 6 cars, I would probably feel differently about that kind of wager. It all depends on how much such a bet means to you. For some people, betting a car is quite acceptable. But if you only have one home or one car, I think such bets are reckless, because that’s not really a rational expense.
