Gambling problems

1gunsnroses · 2017-02-08 00:11:51

Is it just me or is online gambling a huge unknown silent problem in Ireland! Where we can get addicted very easy and waste huge sums of money at the click of a mouse! Has anyone else have any stories about this?

I dunno who is making money from it. Some claim they are but never seem to back it up.
I know I don't . Must be a problem considering the profits that the bookies seem to make.
Some people just gamble for fun.
