    Gambling Addiction Counselor?

    Anyone here one?

    How much does it pay?

    How many hours to get the Credentials?

    Can you still gamble while you are a counselor?

    I went to a few GA meetings. One guy wife made him go. He spent too much time at pool hall, shooting for a beer a game. Another guy brought his teen son to see life of a gambler. Most regular ones who attend stole money to gamble with. Terms of probation, or parole are attend GA regularly.

    You probably should have went to Gamblers Anonymous or the counselor before you took the BIGGEST gamble of your life.

    Good Luck.

    Honestly they should have alcohol at GA meetings and gambling at AA meetings I just thought of this!

    The meetings would be a lot funner to attend.

    This seems as likely as R Kelly having sex with someone his own age.

    Or jj advertising a hair growth product.

    GL Otter. Defy the odds.

    sorry otto but i think you need to be counselled more than being the counseller itself at this moment

    Otter may be the smart one here. Obviously only losers go to GA. So as the counselor, he'll "hypothetically" ask what they would have bet for the upcoming weekend. He'll then fade those picks and become a winner.

    Not a bad idea.

    The best-paid 10 percent could make $60,220 or more, equal to $28.95 per hour,

    maybe top end is $33 /hr for the top 3%
