If you truly want to be in the Navy, and think you can make it in the Navy, then join the Navy. Considering you lost 500,000+ dollars, the discipline that the Navy will give you will serve you well. Not to mention you'll get money for joining the navy, which it sounds like you really need right now.

I am actually from and currently stay in Ohio. Navy thats the only reason I am eager to go because it would bring me back to reality and give me back my value of money! Wdevers add me as a friend to send messages. I am from a urban family but never sold drugs, done drugs, or robbed. I would never think about it. The bad thing about it was that I surrounded myself around the wrong people. I should of made investments yes but was not thinking at the time. I am a Craigslist scouter because right now I wake up 5am and walk 2 miles to labor Ready to get there by 5:30 am only to wait until 7am to finally get a job for the day. We only make $51 bucks after taxes then $5 goes to the driver who took us to work. I work everyday. Its only enough to pay rent and food etc for my girlfriend. I owe about $5500 in student loans so any other place in Ohio I work my wages are garnished. I will come back yes everyone goes through depression thats what I was feeling last night when I started this thread but I thank the few that gave my some hope and great responses.

If what you have said is genuine and you are not a scam artist hoping to grab members personal details etc then the very fact you are in a gambling website asking other gamblers who are also in debt (although not to the financial extent as you are) then you need to get off the computer and yell out for help right now dude You obviously have no financial skills whatsoever and you see money as a quick way to get a hit from gambling. I'd be ringing anyone I could possibly think if I were you right now

If I was able to get 25cent from all 19000 viewers which most hate me I would have my life back! I think i might start a blog and if I reach a certain amount of donations I will try to do some to help people. Maybe travel and tell my story to kids to scare them out of ever gambling. 
I stop gambling for 3 months once I got a good job working for Directv call center making 9hr plus commission.  I had my saving account to $1500 and planned on throwing a event but the third month over 50 people were laid off! I can never caught a break! Well maybe thats what I will do write a blog telling my story and hope someone has opening for a job. I can move into a homeless shelter until I make enough to get a apartment. I am very humbled.

Bro, quit...  unless you have a friend named Billy Walters.. then i don't see how you going to chase it back.  I agree gambling is hard to quit.. i'm in the hole with you.. but not that deep.. guess what since this past football season.. i lowered my per game wager by 10x what I used to bet..  i know you've heard this before if you can't afford it don't bet. 
"Everything happens for a reason" When you tire popped a few miles to the casino was a sign god gave you.  Turn Back! But you still went and lost all your money.. HELLO!  you would think selling the inherited house would be a wake up call.. !  GL to you and hope you hit the lottery.. or something cause i dont' think you'll stop gambling..

Did you ever noticed waht a big lottery ticket you won by being here? Whet do I mean? I'll tell you dude: What were the chances your Mom and Dad would meet out of all the people and conceive you in exact moment they did for you to be born? If you think the odds were unbeliavable, think further, your grandparents meeting and conceiving your parents and so on and on to the beginning! You cant imagine how many odds had to materialize for you to be here. Now, youre 24, healthy physically - I assume - and have whole life ahead of you. You also have your Grandpa's inheritance money that the only reason you dont get it because he knows you gonna gamble that away. Read Machiavelli - understand couple of things - get that money - gamble it away and only than consider jumping. But I dont think you would do that. You reflect problem that all of us have in different scales. We all are degenerate gamblers and need something to excite us - drugs, gambling, danger. Navy is not for you. YOU SHOULD BECOME A BOOK YOURSELF> Think how to do it. With all your experience - you should do pretty well. Your Grandpa might help you if he will know you learned something from yyour experience. Than write to me and I will give you couple of tips. Now, if you are truthful about your story - GL, if not, still, become a book.

No as I told anyone with leads to a job. I have proof! Bank accounts statements, anything. I also invest $82000 on a semi pro ABA basketball team and was ripped off big team! The guy lied and forged documents. I wrote a check to pay $32000 to our convention center but the guy ran off with the money. Now the guy has his own gym and basketball league which profits. He makes $4k minimum weekly and gives me his ass to kiss. I can't do anything about it because I cant afford a lawyer. Police won't help as I already got a police report. This guys is a scum bucket. I belittled myself to ask this guy for a job and he couldn't even respond. Didn't call me back or text. I see him every weekend and most people would have killed him but I just let it go until I get money for a lawyer.

Big Rick how about I make my last bet with you? I jump from somewhere high up and if I survive I get the $10,000 I need to start over without forcing myself into service. If I die you give it to my kid. Its a win win for you. You want to see me die so bad!

I think you should join the Air Force. You can do two of the things you considered, get your life together in the military and possibly jump out of planes.

I wanted to go to Airforce but was told I would have to score high on test to get accepted. I took a practice test and it was tuff. I forgot a lot of the basics. Navy I would qualify easy.

fake story or not, if i can offer my two cents. Hey man, I am 25, we're in the same age group. I love gambling and recently I received grants from school and when my aunt passed away, I received some life insurance money. Altogether I got about 30 k and I put most away, but I quickly lost about 2k in a week betting on sports and at the casino (alot for me)  anyways, I wised up and put the money away in a bank account I cant touch.

I now just gamble, betting 40-50 bucks aside from the 200 dollar ML parlay I currently have going, freaking heat. lol

Anyways, It took some deep thinking to make sure I don't go overboard and lose this money that i really don't deserve. i now just bet extra money i receive from my paycheck. Life is tough out there, especially getting a job, even like you said, a minimum wage job is hard to come by nowadays. The Navy would be a great option to get your life back in order. The problem is when that happens, wont there be temptations to get back into the action? If your story is real, i dont know if it is or not, that's your business. It will take alot of work and honestly some real good fortune to get your back on track, but it can happen...but i would say to expect to work HARD, Harder than most, for many years to get back on track. GL

LMAO go away LOSER  you havent leraned self control YOU bet illegally with mob bookies and YOU got what you asked for !

sorry but i suggest seeking help from Gam Anon and buddy up with someone and when the urge strikes you to BET call him up and get away and sit with him and stop gambling !

i know plenty of people just like you at laest 25 of them that lost way more than YOU did they got help and never made a bet again in thier lives !

That I approach to life is good even if you did not loose any money. Every ten years in life is worth at least 1 million dollars. Now, anybody aged 54 would easily pay 3 million dollars to be back 24. Come on man, cheer up. Its only money you lost and you gonna be back on track and then uour grandpa gonna drop some help money bexause hes gonna trust you . How? Read Machiavelli, google it
