Today, I lent my sister $1000 because she and her husband were in some debt. They used the money to go gambling in Vegas and won a major jackpot. They won't even give me a cut. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my mother asked me if she could borrow $200. Being the lovely daughter I am, I gave her my bank card to withdraw it herself. She gambled it away and maxed my bank account out. I had $1500 saved. FML
Today, I placed $20 in a slot machine at a casino and in a matter of 5 minutes lost it all. My sister then sat at the same machine, put her $20 in and quadrupled her money. FML
Today, I found out my mother-in-law sold a precious family heirloom and gambled away the money. FML
Today, I went to a casino with $300 to spend and somehow walked out with $21K. When I told my wife, she sighed and moaned about how annoying taxes will be, and how I should have pushed my luck further. The house always wins, even when it loses. FML
Today, I went to the casino and put $500 into a game and lost it all. I tried another $100 and won it all back, plus some. Instead of walking out ahead, I kept trying to hit bigger and ended up losing all my rent money. Rent is due and now I can’t pay it. FML
Today, my girlfriend pawned in her mother's engagement ring so she could gamble at the pokies. FML
Today, my sister stole my credit card, used it to rack up a small debt, then told my mom she will pay me back in the future one day, “happily”. But not right now because she has better things to spend her money on. FML
Today, I let my dad put my dollar in the slot machine for me because I'm not old enough to gamble. I won $200 but he kept it because he "put the dollar in the slot machine." FML
Today, my sister finally broke down and told me that our dad gambled away of all my college savings, and I would have to pay for school the best way I can. They have known for months, and when I asked why nobody told me, the reply was, "You're a college boy, we thought you would figure it out." FML
Today, I found out my mom took around $2,500 from my savings account to pay off my sister's college tuition. She recently flunked out of her studies and won't be returning to college anyway. FML

Ya man! They debt any of it back! To the dipshit girl, I don't think you have any room to be calling someone else a dipshit.

Op so if they had lost the money would you have made them pay it back? You can't expect a cut if you weren't going to put the money in if they lost. Sorry champ, that's just not how the world works.

I agree. :)

But she should only get back her 1000. They're not obligated to give her more than what they borrowed.

Yea but still it's only the right thing to do I mean thats her sister and OP could have used that to get something for herself but she selflessly gave it to her sister and now her sister is just being a ass

The money wasn't even meant to gamble with in the first place. It was meant to help pay debts. And they slapped her in the face once by wasting it on gambling. It just so haopened they won. And they won't pay her back as a sign of good faith or even familial love. They're selfish *****.

"WITHOUT ME LENDING YOU MONEY YOU WOULDN'T BE DWELLING IN THE JACKPOT YOU AND YOUR HUSBAND THAT LUCKILY USED AND WON!" = you'll have some of their share.

They owe you the $1000, nothing more. It would be nice if they gave you something extra.

What the hell is wrong with them? They have debts, have to lend money from family and then they go to Vegas to gamble with it? They might be lucky but they sure are completely irresponsible.

That was nice of you though, OP. Sorry you have a lame-ass sister and brother-in-law. Also, that sentence should be "she and her husband" instead.

They misled you in order to get the money. But it was your decision to lend it. They owe you the money back but not a cut of anything they gained from using it.

You have all the rights to get your money back. Tell your mum if this matter still persist. Stay frosty.

They obviously aren't kids...why the **** run to their mom??? And op isn't talking about the initial money she wants a cut of their 'jackpot'

My first impression towards this issue is her sis won't even return her a single cent. Maybe I have too much debtors. So what I previously posted was the first thing that came to my mind.
