When I didn't have money and was badly in need of buying basic foods/grocery I used to sell some jewells with the consent of my wife, yet with the hidden goal of gambling some of that money under the false pretense that it would go to our current bank account, of course when time come to show that account I had already fixed it. That is the maximum I have done for gambling and never would sell the car to gamble let alone the house which is our biggest security in this widely unsecure world economy. I will never understand those people who bet their house as these stories the majority of the times end in suicide and destroyed families.
