"I believe that forum members all have a love for gambling, and gambling has brought us together. Some people like baccarat, some love sports betting, some have a special liking for electronic games, and there are those who love anything related to gambling. However, it's well-known that in gambling, the odds are often against you, and very few people actually make money. Even if you win, there's a significant chance that you'll end up back at the gambling table and lose it all again.
Spending too much time in the world of gambling can lead to various challenges. I'm sure many of us have encountered situations where someone wanted to borrow money. I've seen many stories of gamblers that started with borrowing money. If you don't want to be in a situation where you can't turn back, then don't lend money to people for gambling! I believe this advice is well-known to everyone, right?
Those who borrow money usually won't admit that it's for gambling. They often come up with various reasons to make you believe they are responsible and just individuals. Today, let me talk about the characteristics of such people. Of course, everyone has their own opinions, and you can share your thoughts below. Let's discuss this topic together.
Some people's reasons for borrowing money can be quite touching, and they won't appear to be gamblers. Common reasons are that there is a seriously ill family member, and they have to take on the responsibility, or they themselves have a severe illness and time is running out for them if they don't seek medical treatment. Their request for money may not be for a large amount, making you feel like you should lend them more. Their reasons for borrowing money are emotionally appealing and make you feel guilty if you don't lend them the money.
The second type of person is someone many people have encountered. They give you reasons to believe they are trustworthy. Even if they delay repayment, they will pay you a certain amount of interest, sometimes even higher than what a bank offers. If you lend money to such a person, driven by the desire for easy and substantial returns, you might easily fall into their trap. Even if it seems like they have repaid you, they will come back asking to borrow money again shortly, treating you like a small lending platform because they have developed a habit of paying interest.
Lastly, there's the person who calls you and asks, ""What are you up to?"" They may start by discussing repayment but will often lure you out, manipulate, and deceive you into lending them money. I've encountered this as well. I invited him to dinner, thinking I might not get my money back, so I used the money he had returned to me to treat him to a meal. However, in the end, I lent him the money I had just received back, plus the cost of the meal.
Do you have people like this around you? Is there a common trait among them? Feel free to leave comments and share your experiences!" |
