Gambler busts 5 credit cards to pay S$200k debt

Just what have casinos done to Singaporeans?

 

In yet another case of a gambler out of control, a 29-year-old engineer not only busted five credit cards to pay off his gambling debts, but he also borrowed from nine credit companies to fulfill his payments, reported AsiaOne.

 

And that wasn't all

this father.. blame everyone, include the bank for his son's problem...except his own son...

 

expect his son to take up the self-exclusion order by himself... he doesnt know that he can apply the order as member of family?

 

worst is get the aunty involve in the first place... why? the aunty is either rich or without children/family.. so can squeeze her for every drop of money izzt...

Foo is also questioning why the banks did not cancel his son's credit card after they realised he was unable to fulfill his payments.

 

typical sinkie who will always find things to blame...how would the bank knows why ur son is not paying on time due to his gambling problems?

 

if bank abit of delay always cancel credit, then kenna comprain by customers....if bank dont cancel, kenna blamed by father.

 

if bank contacted the son and the son bluffed the bank he will pay soon...what can the bank do?

Still, the man did not learn his lesson. His father, Foo, soon found his son back at his costly routine again. When his aunts refused to help a second time, the man threatened to commit suicide.

 

Should have nudged him in the right direction. <_<

"Scare" tactics lah ...... typical of the gahman doing ... to try to keep the local away .... If so scared, why build the casino in the first place. There are pros and cons to having the casinos .... let the individual make their choice. If they want to lose everything ... it is their choice.

 

I have still not overcome the pinch of the $100 entrance fees ....
