In fact, I learned later that the reason was not like what he said. His wife divorced him is a myth. All this is just his imagination. As a matter of fact, my friend and I have been renting a house together for about 8 years, so we know each other better.
He is usually very cautious, spending every penny carefully, and there is no phenomenon of spending money indiscriminately. Moreover, this person can't invest, even if there was a leader in his office who was very good at stock trading and said that he would take him to stock trading together, he didn't agree. That year was a bull market of 20 15. Even so, he has never invested a penny, so in my opinion, he is a very safe person.
But around 20 16, he worked part-time with me and made a postal currency card online. After that, I became fascinated with this kind of thing and joined a group to do farm work and trade postal currency cards with this group owner. At that time, I knew that he only invested 10,000 yuan or 20,000 yuan, so he didn't take it seriously. I advised him not to invest too much in this kind of thing, just play with spare money, or pay attention to capital preservation. He also readily agreed at that time.
Unexpectedly, after a year or so, there was a problem with investment, and the postal currency card exchange was facing a situation of closure. He has almost lost all his money. But even so, with his and his wife's salary, their family's living expenses are completely fine. I just don't know when he began to indulge in online gambling. Maybe he wants to win back all the money he lost. He even borrowed a loan on the Internet and borrowed usury in the real world.
After that, the hole became bigger and bigger, so I asked us to borrow money. But he never told me this, so I thought he just failed to invest in postal currency cards and lost a lot of money, so he happily lent him money. Up to now, about two years have passed, and he has only paid me half of the money. A lot of money is still frozen by the bank, waiting for the bank to unblock it.
In the face of this kind of thing, I am also very helpless. I can only say that I am careless in making friends. I can only say that people are too cunning and changeable.
