Gambling and Debt

December 7th, 2006 by Sandra Campbell

What happens to your gambling debt after you die? Don’t believe that it disappears because your no longer here. People like to be paid and will go after your family to get what you owe them.

DEAR DR. GRAHAM: I always knew my husband liked to gamble, but when he died a few months ago, we discovered he had piled up tens of thousands of dollars in debt because of his gambling. It has left us almost impoverished. How could he have done this to us? Didn’t he care about us? — Mrs. D.Q.
