Story story. While I do not encourage gambling, but let's not forget that gambling has a grade. I know senior men that plays bet and are living well. I mean big money. Not this #100, #200 bet and be looking for millions. These are the persons that are addicted. Avoid greed and Play your bet with good money then watch your income. 2 Likes |

novice22: Very simple...... Speak to all your friends and enemies etc etc never to lend/borrow you money...... If you have a girlfriend/wife, speak to her about your addiction and what role she can play...... Now make her in charge of all your income/incoming payments....... (hopefully, she no go chop ur moni) Now without been in financial control of funds, how can you bet?..... 1 Like |

novice22: it is very easy. Buy a safe box and always put those money you want to use to stake in it. As you have done this thrice, you will definitely have the urge to make sure that container box is filled with money. Another way is by telling yourself the truth or by abusing the betting companies every morning or any moment the urge comes. Example: Chelsea vs Mancity will play this weekend. When the urge comes, say to yourself, " bastard teams, bastard betting companies wanting to wreck people of their hard earned money. Abeg make I go use my money chop rice and beans with 2 meats joor" After you have eaten, you are on your way home and you heard the match ended in 0-0, my man begin to laugh and insult them more that they won't smell your money again. Thirdly Another way is to go to any bet shop, sit down and start observing people playing visual, Aja ere, colour colour. Watch how their ticket spoils and how they squeeze it and dump it on the ground, tell yourself, see as this people are converting their money to paper. Isn't this madness, this people need to be saved. You start nodding your head as they keep playing and tell yourself, " see as they are wasting their money" Even if at all they win, watch out how they will still lose their whole win + their phone placed as credit. Now tell yourself, " this one don turn beggar, shaiiii" Fourthly Read your bible, pray and get busy. 4 Likes |

nothing wrong in betting, it depends on how u see it and how u take it , 1,,dont put all your mind on it 2 dont put too much money on it 3. practice "silent painless betting" this means dont spend more than 100naira per ticket, and dont play more than two ticket per day and dont play everyday, 4, when u play a game , consider it a lost game, ;if it returns a winning ticket ,you celebrate, if it doesn't you forget it im this manner you wont feel hurt or being addicted to betting ## my 2 cent 2 Likes |

It's not difficult to stop betting, all you need to do is to imagine how wretched you will be in 20years time if you dont quit and perhaps you can still gamble with your future and imagine how prosperous you may be in 20 years time. 1 Like |

novice22: Dear Mr. Poster , I understand your plight very well because I was once like you. I am Christian and was also a serious gambler, to the extent I could check my bet slips in church. Sometimes, I do forget some of the slips in church. It was due to unemployment, the only source of income I had was the so-called npower. A man of 30 years, squatting with someone, I cried all night looking for a good source of income. That was how i venture into football bet. It was fetching me money but the losses were far more. I really wanted to quit cos it became a shame in the sense that am well known in church so I focused on online betting. That didn't help me at all, in the sense that I spent more online that in shops. I kept on praying, trying to discipline myself but I always go back no matter my losses. I was a chronic gambler !! Well, you know the way it rolls it out there. Sometimes, You feel like committing suicide because it didn't scale through. But as God may have it, he changed my financial status through forex investments. I started investing with different forex firms even with as little as 20k. Suddenly, gambling escaped my brain. It becomes like old fashion whenever people are discussing about it. I still predict and watch big games but not with my money. Employ your money to work for you outside of gambling. All you need is knowledge of additional source of income. That was how God helped me 1 Like |

Prayer is key with actions , so I give the steps to help you out 1. Avoid any gambling joints, or area. If the spot is close to your route going home or going to work, friends, church or whatever place you pass through often. Find a different route and avoid such areas. 2. Let someone keep you accountable with money, meaning someone should discipline on how you spend your money. Someone keeps your extra money that you trust with your life where you do not have easy access whenever you have the urge to gamble. A person that where you ask for the money , they will not give you your money except for emergencies. 3. Every money you have , you must have a daily limit on how you spend your cash no matter what with someone monitoring how you spend your money- Set a reasonable limit where you know that you must you cannot overspend no matter what and you must be honest with yourself e.g I will not spend more than N2000 a day only expect for emergencies 4. You have to avoid tiggers that give the urges to gamble e.g football matches, boxing or any event. You have to find an alternate to your tiggers event that is what is causing you gamble. Find an alternate hobbies, or get your mind busy with anything productive e.g you can jog , read a book, work out, shadow box whenever you have the urge to gamble. 5. Reward yourself as you make progress 1 Like 1 Share |

0monnak0da: If gambling has eaten deep into the system, this won't work because you'll definitely have the strong urge to take out money from the box by using broom or breaking it open. It's an addiction, you can do anything possible to satisfy that urge. |

novice22: Best thing is to sit down, think of the good things you've lost, where you ought to be right now and make a decision if you want to be s better person or die in penury and Shame. It's not just making up your mind to stop. It's about realising what you could have achieved if you aren't gambling, then make up your mind. It's up to you to stop. |
