Any kind of gambling.
stocks /trade should count too. funny how some of the people in wsb are degens, the most recent post i saw someone useing thier 401k for stocks.
What’s a 401k?
Only gamabled for one night.
Told my self "$50 for a couple hours of entertainment? That’s fair if you ONLY spend that much. (Here its ~$18 for a cinema ticket. So ~$30 for a movie night for 1)
Didn’t expect to win. Just treat it as a cash for entertainemt transaction, and I can walk away guilt free.
Think (well, HOPE) I walked away with $200 in the negative. 1 small $10 win leads to one more round, leads to oops, I spent to much. (What I remember, that was only the money on chips, not the drinks.) Never again
Forgot to add. Spent the next 2 nights at the hotel mad at myself. " if I had $200 now, I could buy X, Y or Z, not throw it away on that 2 moments of “yes, that’s my card”
I should check my old steam cs:go opening cases for birthday back in school.
$200.
Does stock market count?
I’ve been to Vegas once. I played 4 quarters in slots and on my last one, I won $1.25.
I stopped while I was ahead.
about $20 at those video poker machines in small bars. won $5 once
~£50,000 overnight fucking around with meme stocks. Good times. 2021 was a wild year.
💎🙌🚀🌚
OMG! And that is pounds? Worth more that US dollars. I think you won the question. Well, lost, technically.
Yes pounds sterling, gambled on the finest American clinical-stage biopharma for that sweet sweet volatility.
Damn son!
0, gambling doesn’t fire off any feel-good chemicals for me, so I don’t do it
I tried slot machines in Vegas. Even themed ones for properties like Back to the Future were the single most boring experience I’ve ever had.
You’d think they would see mobile games and come up with a fun way to lose money, but they are just a chore.
I cannot conceive how people sit at those things. At least poker is a fun game. Never played it for money though.
$40.
I bet that I could ride a bike (MC), and lost my ability to walk properly.
Does that count? I don’t like to gamble unless my life is somehow in the pot. Money is boring.
Edit: I see that the title literally says money… so I guess the hospital bills.
There’s a good reason ER docs call them “donorcycles” 😬
In highschool I bought $20 in raffle tickets and won a $120 mini fridge that I used throughout college. I would get happy feelings when looking at that fridge for years.
Only positive feelings I ever got from gambling.
With how much Xbox talks about losing gamers to sports betting apps in the “attention economy”, I’m really glad to see this thread isn’t 90% just “lost $10k on fanduel during the Super Bowl”
Not exactly gambling but lost like 3 grand one day trading crypto. Been longing coins with some promise, shorting dumb rugpulls, back and forth on some volatile stuff, getting a few extra bucks a day in the background for a couple years at that point, but I was stressed the fuck out that day and, on impulse, in between extinguishing other fires going on in my life, I basically put an extra 0 or two into the order amount. It was the correct bet otherwise, but I didnt have enough collateral and got margin called. Overall net positive if discounting my time, but I’m still hesitant to return to trading
Over my lifetime, I’m up probably around $800.
Most lost at once, $20.
