    We all have our up's and downs but thankfully I do not take it that seriously. One thing that I have cut back on because I just can't seem to get on a good win streak are visits to the racetrack. That place is not good and it's taken me a while to figure that out.

          No.

          19% goes to Uncle Sam.
          66% goes to bills.

          That leaves 15% for me!

            Im guilty of it. Dont really have any responsibilities though. I only have about 400 bucks a month in bills. Truck payment, Insurance, and Phone. Live with my pop for free because the school I go to is 10 minutes away. As long as im in school and working, he lets me stay at the house.

            I have a buddy who does this though. The guy is extremely successful, he just has a serious problem with gambling. Goes to GA meetings, wife has him on an allowance, but like most compulsive gamblers he finds a way to gamble. Pay day advances etc. How fukin funny is that? Guy drives a brand new 7 series beamer, lives in a 800 thousand dollar house, and he hits up pay day advance places to get his fix. Casino gambler. Always out at the reservations

                              You can tell which posters are barreled in. The ones that have 0 SBR points every single day are the posters that lose real money every single day. Posters make the same bets with their points as they do with their real money, it's not hard to figure out.

                                  I gamble away my weekly paycheck, as well as the paychecks of loved ones and family. Someday, when I win, I'll pay everyone back. They seem to be okay with this arrangement, but let's see what happens. I've only been keeping this up for about a year.

                                    are they gamblers?

                                      Not really, just lottery and maybe the casino a couple times a year, but I don't get too far into details with them. I just tell them I need some money and that I'll pay them back when I get back on my feet. It's their fault they don't question me. When they do, I'll have to scramble a bit.

                                                  I usually don't lose my whole paycheck, but I definitely "risk" it x10 most weeks...

                                                        I had to take out a points loan then lost that bet. That is when you are the lowest of the low. When you are in money debt then points debt and have to log in to post and just pay your 13 points every day. I made a thread about how it made me feel like a slave. But I paid it back and now trying to get back in the game.
