🌟 “I Was Earning â‚č6000 a Day
 But Still Got Trapped in Debt

💰 The Beginning: Easy Money from Online Gaming

I started playing online games — not just for fun, but because I was good at it.
Soon, I was earning â‚č6000–â‚č8000 daily. For someone with no job and mounting pressure, this felt like a miracle.

But it wasn’t.

At first, it felt like I had unlocked a secret income stream. Money started flowing in. I didn’t even need to leave my home. My confidence grew — and so did my greed.

↔ The Trap: Win, Play Again, Lose It All

The real problem began when I couldn’t stop.

Even after earning â‚č6000 in a day, I thought:
“What if I can push for â‚č10,000 today?”

And like every addictive pattern, I started losing.
Not once. Not twice. Every time I crossed the winning line, I gave it all back.

What started as “quick profit” became chronic loss.

🚹 The Breakdown: Frozen Accounts & â‚č8 Lakh Debt

Things got worse.

Banks froze my accounts—they flagged my transactions as suspicious or related to illegal gaming.
Credit card debts shot up — and without control, I maxed out â‚č8 lakhs.

That’s when the mental crash hit.

  • I had no savings.
  • I was avoiding friends and family.
  • I was planning to take more debt to cover old debt.
  • My brain was stuck in a dopamine loop — win, lose, play again.

⛔ The Turning Point: Enough Was Enough

One day, I looked in the mirror and said:

“If I don’t stop now, I’ll destroy everything — my money, my mind, my future.”

That same night, I did something radical:

  • Uninstalled all gaming apps.
  • Set a Daily Limit Rule:
    “Earn â‚č6000 and STOP. No more.”
  • Created a Debt Tracker to repay â‚č8 lakh in 5–6 months.
  • Told myself: No more games, no more loans.

🧐 The New Game: Discipline

Now, I treat my finances like a game I must win —
but this time, the enemy is not the game, it’s my impulses.

I
respect it.

❀ My Message to Others in the Same Trap

If you’re stuck in a loop like I was, please remember:

  • You’re not weak — you’re just caught.
  • You don’t need more money — you need a stop button.
  • The thrill of the game fades fast — but regret lasts forever.
  • Real victory is walking away when you’re ahead.

You can still turn it around.

If I can, you can too.

  • ✅ Daily Limit Card: “Win â‚č6000, stop. Transfer. Lock.”

🙌 Final Words

Money earned fast can vanish faster.
But money earned with discipline and purpose builds a future.

I’m still learning. Still recovering. But this time — I’m winning for real.
