A look at Iceland’s 2008 meltdown from multiple perspectives: “The story is at once shocking and hilarious . . . But also a testament to human resilience.” —Keith Hart, London School of Economics Iceland’s 2008 financial collapse was the first case in a series of meltdowns, a warning of danger in the global order. This full-scale anthropology of financialization and the economic crisis broadly discusses this momentous bubble and burst and places it in theoretical, anthropological, and global historical context through descriptions of the complex developments leading to it and the larger social and cultural implications and consequences. Chapters from anthropologists, sociologists, historians, economists, and key local participants focus on the neoliberal policies—mainly the privatization of banks and fishery resources—that concentrated wealth among a select few, skewed the distribution of capital in a way that Iceland had never experienced before, and plunged the country into a full-scale economic crisis. Gambling Debt significantly raises the level of understanding and debate on the issues relevant to financial crises, painting a portrait of the meltdown from many points of view—from bankers to schoolchildren, from fishers in coastal villages to the urban poor and immigrants, and from artists to philosophers and other intellectuals. Gambling Debt is a game-changing contribution to the discussion of economic crises and neoliberal financial systems and strategies that touches upon anthropology, sociology, economics, philosophy, political science, business, and ethics. “Honest, entertaining, and informative . . . Explores the changing distribution of wealth and the impact of privatization as well as the historical identity of Iceland and the numerous factors that came together to help produce such an economic meltdown.” —Choice Publication supported in part by the National Science Foundation

[Buy this book now only at the iUniverse.com bookstore. Order from bookstores everywhere in 4-6 weeks!] Although gambling is enjoyable entertainment and can provide unparalleled excitement, it can financially drain and ruin some people. This manual is a roadmap and workbook for the problem gambler or potential problem gambler, who can not control the amount of money he/she loses, to seriously give up on gambling. This work is based on over 25 years of experience in gambling by the author, who shares his insight with the reader. While attending college, the author began gambling at 18 in local New York City OTB parlors and New York horse racing tracks. Then he got caught up in casino gambling, when it debuted in Atlantic City. He also dabbled in most other forms of gambling, in lotto, poker, and sports betting. As much as the author loves to win, he hates to lose in gambling. So, after 25 years and losing a small fortune, he decided to give up on his quest of becoming a consistent winner. This book describes the way he finally coped with and quit gambling. There is also ample space for the reader to write down his/her own thoughts on how to quit gambling to personalize the manual for his/herself.

Are you aware that Gambling is not a handiwork, not a talent, not a skill, Gambling is a fake potential and Gambling is not for a Christian? Are you or a loved one battling with a gambling problem? Are you ready to learn how you can get back up when life knocks you down completely due to gambling addiction? Have you really encountered difficulty in overcoming the urge to gamble? Discover the causes, warning signs and symptoms and learn how to stop. Gambling is one of the ploys of the wicked one to entangle end-time youth with quick money syndrome. This book presents a concise, yet detailed summary of the major lessons I’ve learned over the last few years fighting and conquering the spirit behind gambling menace. It's a journey that started since the year 2014 when I was in college at Mahatma Gandhi University, India. It is on record that nearly four in ten Nigerians (36%) gamble regularly, with up to 60 million Nigerians between the ages of 18 and 40 involved in daily sports betting, and they spend an average of 3,000 Naira every day on betting platforms. The current size of the market is estimated to be $60 million. It is also on record that approximately 10 million people in the U.S. have a gambling problem, so you are not alone. It’s important to understand your motive for gambling and avoid gambling temptations and triggers. The main reason why most people like to gamble is to make quick and easy money. Gambling by nature appeals to greed, and greed doesn’t please God. Jesus condemned greed and mentioned it in lists of some very “ugly” sin (Mark 7:21-23). The Bible warns us that greed is destructive to our Christian lives (Ephesians 5:3). Note that money itself isn’t evil, but being overeager to get a lot of it is dangerous. The desires that want to get more of what this world has to offer are actually the kinds of desires we’re following when we choose to gamble. Remember, worldliness and Godliness is in enmity. How would you respond to someone who argues they only do a little gambling (e.g.., Bet9ja or other sports betting) for fun, and they don’t care if they win? Gambling in any form is highly addictive; for greed has the potential to master us and also to change our priorities from God to self. The whole point of Gambling is winning money; without that goal it has no purpose. It is dangerous to even get a little involved in an activity that can lead to greed, debt, stealing, lying, and even spiritual ruin. THROUGH THIS BOOK, YOU ARE SURE TO GAIN: ● A better understanding of how to deal with the temptation and overpowering the urge associated with gambling. ● Practical steps on how to stop gambling. ● The ability to develop a positive lifestyle as alternative to gambling ● Knowledge of the dangers of gambling as a lifestyle of the 21st century youth, the root causes and symptoms, consequences and how to discontinue. I promise that if you follow the step-by-step guidelines stipulated in this book, you will experience a significant improvement in your battle against gambling problem. I am certain of your quick recovery because the approach will surely work for you whether you’re a national or foreigner, teenager, youth or adult, male or female gambler. This book is highly recommended for all especially anyone that have not been involved in gambling before but have the intentions to start gambling someday. “Show me a gambler and I will show you a loser”. It is useful to all individual. Read & Share! Knowledge Liberates!
