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

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
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

Just keep going over to her house and whenever they aren't looking take 20 dollars from their wallets. If you do it everyday for a year you'll get 7,300 dollars, if you do it every week for a year you'll get 1,040 dollars. I would try everyday if I were you.

It could have been worse, they could have gambled it all away and not earned a single dime, then she'd be at your doorstep again teary-eyed asking to borrow more money, what i suggest is that you demand the money you lent her back, because she's likely to go gambling again

i say suck it up, if you can't get the money back, too bad. obviously you can't be doing that bad if you could afford to just hand your sister $1000. i'd try your best, but you didn't have to do it either, so don't cry over spilled milk.

124- if I had $1001 saved and my brother asked me if he could borrow $1000 cause he was short on bills, I would loan it as long as my own bills were paid. It would be a big hit, however. Don't assume OP isn't in a similar situation. People who love their families will do anything to help them. That being said I'd expect to be paid back quickly, and that would be a term of the loan, and if he pulled a stunt like what happened to OP I'd be taking him to court.

Solution: Disown her and cut off her toes as punishment.

You dont deserve a cut. In reality all you get is your $1,000 you originally lent them. life sucks get over
