Lil Baby recently opened up about losing almost $9 million in less than two days because of his gambling problem. He shared the story on Lil Yachty’s A Safe Place Podcast, saying he got caught up in gambling for 40 straight hours. He kept playing, hoping to win big, but ended up losing millions. Realizing he was spiraling, Lil Baby called up his homie Mike Rubin and told him to help. He asked Rubin to contact every casino and have him banned from gambling spots so he couldn’t go back and make the same mistakes. Lil Baby was being real about how easy it is to get addicted to gambling, even when you’ve got money.
By telling this story, Lil Baby wants to show others how serious gambling can be, even for someone like him. He hopes his experience can help others stay away from that trap and learn from his mistakes.
