I started gambling when I was 20. I am 40 now and have two 401k loans and 1 personal loan out. They total about 40,000... when I was younger I got arrested twice for getting into bar fights after losing my shit all day. I make anywhere from 80,000 to 90,000 a year depending on overtime and I barely survive because of my stupid gambling debt and my mortgage.... if anyone is on this path taking out loans to pay a scumbag bookie quit now... that being said I fuckin miss the rush of hitting a big parlay or hitting a bet in the ninth inning or covering the 1 1/2 goal line with an empty netter ...
