      Let me ask you something sport.

      Is gambling really worth your friendships? Take a moment and think about that one. Then fuking stop gambling.

        I think he should cut you off and break your arm too, maybe you'll learn your lesson.

        Get addicted to work, leave your friends alone. They are stupid to lend you money
        for that kind of shit. NEVER, EVER lend money to friends or family in hopes of getting
        paid back, you won't.

          My plan is to get a loan from multiple friend maybe like $250 each with 3 friends. Not too big right? And work my ass off this entire week to pay them back. But seems like every one is broke to loan these days

                For 165. Of course.

                He could fukin care less

                That being said it really depends on the bookie

                Is he the bartender at the neighborhood bar?

                Or is he connected?

                The bartender would probably be pissed to lose a customer

                The connected guy would move on in the blink of an eye for 165. Could care less. He would call you maybe 2 or 3 times but if you ducked him it would be done

                    If $700 is considered a lot, you're living life wrong.

                    I'd rather owe a bookie than owe a friend.

                      700 is not a lot of money. If you've paid back the 5 loans previous then I don't see why you couldn't borrow money from your friends again and pay them back the same. If they are not charging you interest you could take them to lunch when you have paid it all back.

                            It's Xmas time... or even just the holiday season if your culture isn't in to Xmas. It's understandable people are saying they don't have cash to spare although they could just be lying because they're sick of bailing out your butt.

                            No more credit gambling... you're better off playing 12 a day in the SBR book than to have to ask friends to help you out with this repeatedly. At least you know you'll still have your pride and your kneecaps if you lose your points. GL Lazy-Man.

                                I know. I hate taking this road. But life is full of challenges. To tell you the truth I'm surprise through all the bullshit I've been through that I'm still alive

                                  There is no way you need to borrow money from friends for a gambling debt, it's just laziness. This computer ur posting on...go pawn it and the tv you watched yourself lose on. Then later when you get the money together go get your stuff and leave ur friends out of it. If you are saying to yourself, "But my friends loan me the money interest free" then ur just an asshole.

                                      I don't have much of value to tell you the truth. My laptop would probably get $50 tops at a pawn shop in Detroit. Not on here to beg other posters for money, just trying to get advice on how to get 7 bills in 24 hrs

                                        Go to hardcore pawn and say you need $700 for a bunch of stuff because somebody needs an operation or something. I've seen that sometimes they make crazy deals with people in need because it's good tv.

                                                        I would let the guy know that i don't have the money to pay.

                                                        I would listen to what he says and propose him a payment plan.

                                                          This would be a win-win for you both.

                                                          Btw, you're not even a chump - you're a flea. And you can ignore the bark of that dog whose back you're on because there is zero chance of a bite over $700.

Even made up a bullshit ponzi scheme where friends were "investing" money with him, thinking he was buying and re-selling things for profit. Long story short, you better look in the mirror before you ruin your life. If you have to borrow money to pay your gambling debts, that's a red flag that thngs are a little fukked. This was the second time he has done this. Many people won't speak to him anymore, including his own family. He was suicidal for a while. Be careful, it sounds like you're heading down the same path.
                                                                I agree with this, do be careful. You might not be able to pay back it all back quickly this time. Sorry to say this, but money is one major issue that can really destroy a friendship.
