Message: [QUOTE="Tammy, post: 417441, member: 3824"] Potheads, I can understand your strife. But what your going through with poker is also what a lot of people go through with the mismanagement of their credit, as well. The simple fact of the matter is: if you don't have the actual money to play poker (or buy that new toy/shoes/outfit/whatever) DON'T use a credit card! It will only get you in trouble in the long run. If you can't trust your boyfriend to not dip into the credit or bank account, DON'T LET HIM. Hide your cards, change your PIN, etc. etc. If you can't stop yourself, then it's time to cut-up the cards and get some counseling. It comes down to living within your means. In all areas of life, not just playing poker, if you try to live beyond your means (i.e. spending money you don't have) you'll only dig a big hole for yourself that in the long run is difficult to climb out of.
