I gambled on nfl preseason and lost 1500$. Im so mad at myself. I was doing great. I just blew my next paycheck.

I made 300$ today after tip out and am on track to make my paycheck goals. Should be 4$k after taxes.

Moving forward, im simply putting as much positivity in the world as I can. Hopefully the money will follow. Im still very upset im down 45$k all time but all I can do is pay myself back by putting 200$ a week into my stash box. After 4 years I’ll have paid myself back. I look forward to 2031.

Life is not about making an easy buck, but an honest buck.

Woke up today and the first thing I wanted to do was check gambling apps and sports scores. Literally can’t open them.

Feels like weight off my shoulders. I’m going to the fucking gym right after this post. 10:04 am chi time

I am up 225$ today plus my 9$ hourly. My paycheck should be nice. Nothing is worse than knowing you have to pay a payday loan back with 1/2 your check because you wanted to gamble and lost. This money should be paying myself credit card bills instead I’m just paying 450% interest biweekly payment loans.

It only charged me 300$ interest but still, I’m down 2400$ automatic when I get paid so I can pay the loan in total. Then I owe my momma money for this months food/utility/rent 600.

Thank god I paid my car this month already so as long as I have a solid week, and I’m scheduled 48 hours, I should clear my monthly debts and pay my mom. And possible have an extra 1000$ for the piggy bank. This is strictly for accountability. Thank you for listening. Have a good night.

Thursday lunch 215$ 195$ dinner

It’s 4:08 Chicago time. I’m about to clock into work. My gambling has spiraled because I make good money at a young age and I have nothing better to spend it on so I gamble.

Stops today. I self excluded all apps and Illinois gambling onsite casinos.

I’m down like 45$k all time and plan on paying myself back 200$ a week and putting that shit in a box until I pay myself back.

I’m 27, I make like 105$k pre tax and live at my mom’s house. Theres no fucking excuse to succeed. I need to move out and stop being a leach. I toss my mom 600$ a month but u know what I mean
