I did something much worse. I worked at a job. Did that for over 10 years and still might have to do it again

Never had to pawn anything. But when I first started gambling I was 18, got hooked up with some gambling guys that were way over my head at the time at the golf course I worked at. I signed at least 3 of my paychecks over to those guys. Good to learn when I was young and making small bets though. I've learned my lessons on chasing real quick. Now, I very rarely win big, but I also very rarely lose big

The only thing that kept me from ever doing that was how much I hate to lose. I know I have a tendency to getting addicted to everything and I love the rush of gambling, but I could always cut myself off (sports), now being drunk in a casino with credit cards is another story.....

Way back when, I hocked my wifes diamond engagement ring. Took a while to get it back. Turned out the Beverly Hills pawnbroker I pawned it to got killed as well as his son when an oriental woman wanted back her pawn when her family was coming to town. Shot both of them dead.
