Ang daming nasirang pamilya, nagbenta ng bahay, nag sangla ng kotse titolo ng lupa, mga hindi na umuuwi ng bahay at tambay sa casino walang tayuan ultimo mag cr hindi magawa. Hanggang sa mabaon na at naging tambay na sa casino at nakiki amuyo g nalang sa ibang players at manghihingi ng balato pang taya nila, what more pa sa online gambling na napaka easy access???? kaya napaka ironic ni Nadine knowing na picky sya sa endorsement and then now umoo sya sa ganyan. It's just money after all."
