How I Lost My Job Through Gambling & Becoming An Irresponsible Father by Yankeeboy02: 10:20pm On Feb 14, 2022 |
I just want to share my story to the world. When I graduated, I was so blessed that I didn’t hurt for job, before I got one. I was working in the bank and was paid well, within a year I rented an apartment and got married, things was falling in place and I felt on top of the world before I started gambling, how I started it, I can’t explain. I lost all my resources and money within two years, I was sacked eventually and life became worst for me. I got another job and promised my wife, family and kids to be a responsible father, but the urge for gambling keep coming, I couldn’t control the urge, I lost the job again. My wife believed am a good man, but I see myself like am cursed and it is not that am getting money from the gambling. I am sick and tired of life, I am a failure, sometimes I feel like committing suicide, I have brought shame to my family and kids. Please I need help, am jobless, money can’t stay in my hand, I will go to gambling shop and lavish it. Am I cursed, I need help 32 Likes 5 Shares |

U guys should stop painting betting as an abominable act. One problem u guys fail to understand about betting is 1. Don't take betting as an alternative means of survival 2. Bet wit what u can afford to loss. E. G. Let's say, weekends, if u are d type that spends maybe 5k for faji (5k depending on individual capability) that's spare money, u can bet wit some part of it, not using your transport and feeding money for d week to bet. 3. Never bet all d time but guys won't listen, they always bet every blessed day which is very very wrong. In all, to me betting is fun. 68 Likes 4 Shares |

What's the connection between losing your job and your addiction? Did you steal from the company to fund your gambling? 35 Likes 3 Shares |

You are just a chronic addict, what you need is intervention. Seek help, talk to a counselor or meet a pastor. Purge yourself out of it Before it ruins you. Don't see yourself as a cursed person it is your inner demons telling you that. Spend more time doing positive things, don't surround yourself with negative people. If you have friends that gamble or family members that gamble cut them off from your life immediately. Start going to church, attend more of life impacting seminars. Relate more with your kids and your wife trust me it will bring more positivity in your life. And finally Pray and ask God for forgiveness. If you do this with all your heart trust me your life will bounce back on track. Cheers ![]() 16 Likes 1 Share |

Its better to give your money to orphans and beggars than to gamble with it. Open up to your pastor and see a counsellor everyday. 5 Likes 2 Shares |
