help someone quit gambling

I think he should clear his debts first. In gambling, the odds are always stacked against you.Originally posted by ghimpheng:o ya thanks
Anyway if u really can't stop gambling right
try playing $5 per match you won't win much nor lose much and never borrow from others amd
IF You Can't Afford To Lose , Don't Gamble! -
Same mindset as criminology or drugs taking... Always start off with a small number... It often maintains for a while and increases in various opportunities with its exposure to time.... Usually very soon one would find himself / herself expanding the 'acceptable range'....Originally posted by ghimpheng:$5 is very less and even it is not temporary it is not a problem @ all unless you have a super low salary and no 1 bet in every single matches that is make available by bookies or singapore and re-read my post again carefully - Never borrow money from others and if u can't afford to lose , don't bet but $5 any working teenager/adult or even students can afford that -
:
totally useless, he went back to old habit again, and this time lost even more -
Just a little sharing:
Kog, it's nice of u to be helping him. Oh no, he has lost again?
ok, recall wat interests he has? go from there.
if he's betting on soccer, see if he likes soccer. if he does, can try having
weekly games with a group of mutual friends.
try seeing what other strong interests he has. cultivate them.
talk to him to know y he likes to gamble. is it just for the quick $, or the
kick/thrill? or peer pressure? -
Threaten him to stop by hiring 5 gigolos to rape him without protection.....
-
maybe I should be his bookie, if he continues to lose, I earn money 
-
tie him up lor

Old habiit hard to stop. Especially gamble, when they lose, they want to break even. When they win, they want to win more. I have a friend who borrow money from all the banks in Singapore to gamble. He never think twice about gamble but think twice when buying a $50 shirt. So pathetic.....
The best thing to stop them, maybe draw their attention to something else. Ask him to stay away from those who gamble and also away from temptation. -
what do you suggest?
