So now I'm accumulating a list of things I can sell on eBay and ways to cut spending to make up for this $9K. My net worth is around $400k, so it's not an emergency, but it still hurts. Fuck I'm an idiot. |

also, why go to ebay. you should start by making craigslist style posts here. |

Date: March 15th, 2026 9:38 AM Author: '"'"''"'"'''"''" Personally I don't view it as socially acceptable, so I'm not going to tell anyone about this. My depressed mind was seeking the thrill of a win, but of course I got carried away and lost big. I am a fucking idiot.
Here's what I have on my list to sell: iPhone 16 Pro Max AirPods Pro 2nd generation 16" MacBook Pro for parts Bluetooth speakers Piano keyboard Two camera gimbals A fancy microphone A bunch of other shit that isn't worth that much
Here's how I'm cutting expenses: No restaurant food for a while since I easily burn an extra $1k+/month on restaurants. Drinking tap water instead of sparkling water or bottled water. Grocery shopping in store instead of with Instacart.
Any other ideas or just donations welcome. |

Date: March 15th, 2026 9:42 AM Author: '"'"''"'"'''"''" I learned my lesson. They are addictive as fuck, but I'm more focused on paying off this $9k now than any more gambling. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5845819&forum_id=2#49744980) |

Date: March 15th, 2026 9:41 AM Author: '"'"''"'"'''"''" Biggest single loss was around $5k. Then the other $4k slowly left my account in less dramatic ways far below $5k. Biggest win was around $2.2k on a random college basketball game.
I don't even watch or follow sports. I just wanted to gamble. |
