Probably the #1 downfall of anyone who gambles. I had that problem and still kind of do but alot more in control than in the past. In college got REALLY bad. Its tough I still tell people gambling is the most addicting thing anyone could do.

The union probably sucked the money from him and blamed it on gambling. I see the UAW and GM situation and all I can think is, what a bunch of bs.
