โIโve met evil in the form of gambling."
Story Time:
Lars Pacheco shared on her social media account that she lost 5 million pesos due to online gambling.
She explained that it started with small amounts but eventually reached 5 million because she could no longer control her urge to keep playing and winning.
She also shared that her life was so badly affected that she couldnโt focus on her pageant training, and as a result, she did not win the pageant in Thailand.
"Tapos ito na โyung part na nag-open ng eyes ko to stop na talaga. Dito ko narealize na Iโve met evil in the form of gambling kasi natuto akong magsinungalingโฆ naging makapal ang mukha ko at ito โyung worst, I know that evil is there, mag-isa lang ako sa kwarto noon, sobrang dilim, and I bet may 100k. Then sabi ko talaga kay Jesus, t****** naman eh, bat ayaw mo pa kasing ibigay? And after that, I cried and prayed to God and said sorry. Sobrang naging selfish ko. Sobrang naging yabang ko sa sarili ko na kaya kong ipanalo ang lahat, hanggang ako mismo nalunod sa sarili ko."
"Ginawa ko ang video na โto for a realization na tumigil ka na. Alam kong nahihirapan ka. Alam kong nanghihinayang ka sa mga natalo mo. Tanggapin mo na na hindi na kayang bawiin pa lahat ng โyun."
"Oo, ikaw, quit this gambling now. Quit this evil now. I just want you to know na hindi pa huli ang lahat para sa 'yo. For you to start over, mas importante ang pamilya mo, mas importante ang sarili mo. Dahil makakabawi ka ulit, makakabangon ka ulit kung titigil ka na ngayon."
Imagine, she started in 2021, when influencers were not yet actively promoting online gamblingโhow much more it has affected and convinced others to engage in online gambling today. Always remember, thereโs no such thing as easy money. Donโt wait until everything you have is gone.
