What you guys should do is to help him learn another form of gambling like FOREX or cryptocurrency trading. You people should make him see the benefit in trading. And also equip him if he is ready to trading. 1 Like |

Boogiebee: A broke man may never be able to stop gambling. A steady source of reasonable income gives gambling a natural death. Imagine staking to win 50k that almost never comes,when you earn over 500k monthly. Brokenness keeps the gambling fire burning. 6 Likes 1 Share |

I pray the good Lord touches your little bro soul and give him the grace to desist from this deadly path he has chosen. I'm a living testimony, played bet with millions of naira, had set back , depression and shed tears like a baby so many times, because I couldn't help myself from playing bet. I was able to stop when I realized my life was finally coming to a ruin.... And as I speak, I have few friends who haven't found their way out yet, and life has never been easy for any one of them. So keep praying for your brother , he needs a lot of it right now.... Tell him stories of whom gamble has ruined their lives.... Let him know he can never progress in life playing bet. I pray God help him !!! 1 Like |

Boogiebee: The day I borrowed money from loan app was the day I stopped. I also moved out of the Neighborhood, got new cycle of friends. To stop an addiction you need another addiction. Your brother needs to discover his hidden talent or something else to give him money. Online skill etc 1 Like |

Boogiebee: divert his gambling addiction to forex.. he want to make money, guide him to where to make money the hardest way..link him with good trainers or better site like forexfactory, someone with track record and trust me once he understands how money work after months of failure, the addiction will disappear or transformed to fun thing to do instead of the greed driven...guide him to forex forums and searched for threads on failures as a forex traders, listening and reading real life stories of successes and failures and in no time the mind will begin to rework itself for his good...addiction energy need to be diverted to something else and you are in the right spot to help him.. if you stopped giving him money or letting him have access to things he could sell, he might be lured to other quick money scheme like yahoo and its a slippery slope from down there..he is young and inexperienced and therefore be handled with care.. |

Boogiebee:Seriously, when i heard you say ''Addicted to gambling'', i thought it was just normal sport betting which most guys get involved in but with the scenario of your younger bro getting to sell his stuff's and even uses his laptop for gambling purpose then i think your bro is far gone than those who play sport betting. He needs help Asap nd don't ever think it won't affect u guy's later on, you beta do something now b4 it's too late, else, this one will sell anytin sell able jst to gamble it away...The worst gambling is not sport betting but those crazy woth, dice, poker etc. they can make one sell off anytin that comes its way. Although am not saying sport betting isn't bad, both are bad but your bro has gone beyond sport betting, infact, sport betting to him is like a child's game....Check on him very well, he is on a gambling that is far beyond his capacity. God will redeem him |

Gambling is a terrible addiction. A guy in my hostel won 12k and he was disturbing everybody in the hostel.....We rushed outside thinking it was something worth celebrating and he broke the news to us. I hissed and walked back to my room saying "na all the money wey you take dey play since dem gather give you" Everybody started laughing and the guy felt disappointed.

I'll advise you tell him no one has ever made it through gambling, let him forget about his losses and focus on his studies Remind him of Where he's coming from and what they're expecting of him if he fails he failed the whole fam especially mama. Give him target on his school grade if he can get all first class each semester at the end there's a reward for him... Gambling is not something you force one to stop rather you apply wisdom 1 Like |

If he's not a student,I would have advised to Stop funding him and let him know how hard it is to earn money, but as it is . give him what he needs to survive not what he needs to live.mind you pay his school fee by yourself...and watch him changing gradually |
