GUEST – Laurie Campbell, CEO Credit Canada Debt Solutions, GFB Debt expert

TOPIC – Problem gambling and the risk of crippling debt.

INFO -In our line of work at Credit Canada Debt Solutions, we provide credit counselling to a lot of people who’ve fallen on hard financial times. A number of our clients face crippling debt due to addictive behaviour, including the compulsion to gamble away hard-earned dollars while throwing personal budgeting to the wind. We’ve learned that gambling addictions can encompass all the desperation and obsessive behaviour that other addictions embrace. The real trouble comes not from the gambling itself, but from the person doing the gambling. In every gambling addict deeper psychological issues are always at work. They vary depending on the individual’s upbringing, self-awareness, social conditions, and financial literacy.
