$150k didnt seem like a lot of money when I had it

Which is why I gambled it all away

So no I have $2k to my name, and suddenly $150k feels like a lot

I just wanted a fucking house of my own, too not have to worry about paying rent, to not have to worry about paying mortgage repayments, I dont want a lambo, I dont want fancy gadgets, I dont want anything special. All I wanted was a fucking house. I got so desperate that I lost all my savings trying to get it. Now I am back to square 1 again.
