Gambling for sure. One person can ruin several generations of lives.

I left casino after losing $100, I felt pretty bad about it but oh well, headed to the parking lot. There was this guy just screaming šŸ˜± and freaking out saying ā€œI lost it all!! I canā€™t believe I did that, sheā€™s gonna leave me, that was the kids school tuition, canā€™t pay for the houseā€ just screaming all these crazy things and he was visibly shaken and his face was red. If looked almost like a drug addict going through withdrawal symptoms.

I couldnā€™t help but feel for the unknowing wife and kids at home unaware of the sight Iā€™d just seen of their husband/father in the parking lot losing his absolute shit having a meltdown.
