I know, I know. I tried to beat the house and the house killed me, spat on my body and then laughed.

I slowly (VERY SLOWLY) earned around 77g (not much I know), from months dungeon running, world exploration and a few fractals.
I thought hmm.. maybe I could try for a precursor (I must have been insane), fair to say I did not get one.

I now have around 7g and no idea what to do or how to muster the energy to earn it back. I’m not asking for sympathy, just wondering if anyone else has been stupid enough to gamble everything.

Not sure what to do now ;/
Wth was I thinking seriously

I also now have to deal with a very very annoyed pregnant girlfriend D;

Pregnant girlfriend comes first, my friend. On the other hand, once that matter is out of the way I suggest you control your spending’s in the game, if you wish to take it that seriously.

I can’t really help with the question, I’ve blown everything I had in game before but it’s never bothered me. I don’t really do farming or whatever, I just play the stuff I find fun and get money gradually along the way. So when I spend/lose it all I just go back to playing and sooner or later I get it back again.

But I am curious, why is your girlfriend annoyed? Unless you two share an account, or “very slowly earning” gold means buying it with real money I really can’t see why she’d care what you do in-game.

She plays as well and I usually help her out with armor and weapons.

Oh, I just realized that your girlfriend is mad because of your gold spending, not because you made her pregnant on accident. Haha, my bad ^.^

Why does your gf need help with armour and weapons? Can’t she craft/earn them herself? Don’t get me wrong, I craft stuff for my husband (in exchange for the mats) because he’s not into crafting, and we will pass relevant levelling gear to one another if we can’t use it or salvage it for ectos. But part of the pleasure and sense of progression in a game is earning the stuff yourself.

I rarely have more than 5 or 6 gold at any time spread between 9 toons. Hasn’t affected my game play or fun at all.

Why are you agonizing so over digital cash?

You laugh, brush it off and play a GAME. The thrill of the gamble is in knowing you could lose everything At least you gamble in a videogame instead of in real life. Since you have a family, that’s the smart thing to do.

That being said. If you could keep your gambling under control in GW2, you may try this thing called gems to gold. You could also just start playing again. Doing AC or high fractals gives quite some gold. 77g can be made in 2 days if you take out holiday

As for the girlfriend … buy her a gem card.
