Took huge hit at Vegas. How do you recover?

That's the price you pay for being a degenerate gambler with zero self control.
 
Stop gambling.
 
Last time I was there they had this thing where if you beat a chicken at tic-tac-toe you could win $10,000. Seemed like an easy way to win back some money, chickens are dumber than shit.
 
Take heart in the fact that you are clearly too much of a pansy to blow more than 1/3 of your money.
 
god damn lost 1/3 of my money overall. I'm 26, single, have a good job, and have no huge obligations but shit I'm depressed.

Help.

Well, it doesn't sound like you will get a sympathetic ear in this place.

I've seen my fair share of gambling tourists & junkies, they are like crack heads, only its cool.

Just remember these wise words...
There's a sucker born every minute, and, The house always wins.

The real gamble in life, is life.
Everything else is just a game.

Use "California legal medicine" and hustle hard. Maybe take a part time gig.
 
You only lost 1/3 of your money, so that means you could have doubled or even tripled down.

Gofundme page to recuperate the $100.
 
Let it go, be glad the lesson cost you 1/3 of your wealth instead of 3/3, and don't gamble anymore.

A lot of people only learn when they've lost 100% of their wealth and additional money beyond that.
 
Your only 26 years old, you made a mistake and if you make it a lesson learned this is just a small hiccup. There is a line i remember from 60 minutes when one of the interviewers asked the ceo of large vegas casino whether he has ever seen a gambler win over the long run and his answer was NO. Always stuck with me.
 
Jump off a roof


Seriously you'll be fine. Everyone's been there

Next time gamble smarter or not at all
 
how much did you lose exactly? 1\3 of your money could be like a 100 bucks. Give me an exact figure and then I'll assess the damage and give you a sound advice.
 
Sounds like an expensive lesson learned. Drop it, and move on with your life. No good comes from dwelling on this or trying to right a wrong.
