Re: Gambling
See here's the thing: I nearly lost once before even though it wasn't my money (my boss was pissed and gave me some money to gamble on *shrug*).
I know that I start off well and when I start losing, I stop.
I never drop to whatever I put in. Like yesterday, I put in £50, I walked out with £70. I was making £85 and then I started losing. I knew that I'd be better off with £70 than say £35 (£15 loss to my original bet). Just like the example I gave earlier about a colleague of mine. He blew £200 (he sold a phone) yesterday and he didn't know when to stop. We had to physically stop him and take him out of the place because he seriously didn't know when to stop.
I also make small bets. That way it's not as risky and I don't lose a lot of money (if my luck turned bad all of the sudden).
I can see the point you guys are making and I really appreciate your advice(s). Really, thank you. I'm sure I'll stop and find something else.
P.S. The money that I gamble on tends to be from the money I make from work I do on the side. Not my actual Phones 4u earnings. This can be anything from £10 - £100 a day.
Also it helped me pay off some "I owe you's" here & there.
