I quit betting 4yrs ago but last year December I was just scrolling thru Twitter then a noticed a guy who called himself king of 2odds, I saw series of his tweets on betting and I was tempted to give betting a try again. I had 15k in my acct which was the little money I have gathered for my school house rent. I played Liverpool over 1.5, then Man City 1.5 but fucking Liverpool played 1.0.OMG!! I nearly committed suicide that day

lol. I can understand d disappointment. grin

My first lost was to MMM. Lost 200k. My second lost was when i bought a samsung 40 inch smart tv . The very day i bought it and was trying fix it on the wall was the day the tv fell down and broken. That tv cost me close to 85k. Another was when i secure a shop with total package of 150k. After few months, i discovered the area was not business inclined and had to leave. I forfeited the agreement and commision and what i was given back was 63k. Losses has been much jare but thank God we still have life which is more valuable.

my own was on the streets of manchester. this street called cheetham hill road. so i was jejely strolling ooo minding my own business na hin this rover car pull up beside me. inside was 4 white guys. they looked dodgy but i was on the streets so no fear. they whistled at me and told me to come over, so i stupidly did, then the guy pulled out a bag and opened it and showed me this high powered laptop that was looking really nice. like i can get some work done with that Kinda laptop. my spec. just looking real nice and powerful. The guys said they just got it from one shop and it cost like 1500 pounds but they will give it to me for 150 pounds because they are desperate and need the money. i priced it down to 120 pounds and they finally agreed. so i went to the cash machine and gave them the 120 pounds and they gave me the bag. i was excited thinking of all the things i was going to do on that laptop when i get home. so i even bought snacks on the way to eat while i am enjoying the laptop. when i got home and opened the bag what was inside was 2 large bottles of coke. the thing weak me. my spirit sank just a little bit. i think i went to bed just to forget the whole incident. lesson learnt is FORK ALL HUMANS. ITS ME AGAINST THE WORLD. I VIEW EVERYONE WITH A HAWKS EYE.

I lost my yahoo email password and the phone number which I use in online registrations, l was less concerned to retrieve it back then in 2009. last year I heard about bitcoin price I was mad. I have 110 btc in bitcoin wallet but I don't remember the wallet wether it was blockchain or binary, even if I remember the wallet I don't remember either password or username as I have used numerous username and password on online stuffs. most night I calculate how rich I am if I had 110btc in my possession.

I'm not sure you know anything about forex... You should know forex losses can accumulate if you don't have a very good strategy.

lost 6.8 million to bet9ja virtual upper friday and $650 last friday. I've been loosing money to bet9ja right from nigeria until now, so i can't really say a specific amount. I'm determined to stop now, in the long run, gambling makes you broke and poor. I can't even take care of myself very well.
Lesson learnt: if you need money or under pressure to recover your losses, DO NOT GAMBLE!!!!!! you'll lose more and secondly, use whatever money you have to pay off debts you owe because YOU CAN'T REALLY PLAN WELL WHILE THINKING OF PAYING DEBTS.
I think we should have a platform on how to stop gambling, IT'S KILLING OUR FUTURE.
