Yesterday the class of 2000 was a guest of the Salvemini school in Bari for meet high school kids in one of the meetings organized by the FIGC within the path to recovery from gambling addiction. This is how Tonali began, as reported by SportMediaset: “Maybe among you there is someone who bets and doesn’t say it, because often you close in on yourself. However, when you play and have a high salary, having to deal with gambling gambling is a risk around the corner. I hid and I made a mistake. You don’t stop yourself, others stop you. And you can also compromise friendships, relationships and work.”
Then Tonali continued: “Hiding behind the barriers of a problem is never the solution. Rather, we need to talk about it. Get help. My true wealth is not million-dollar contracts, but being surrounded by people who love me and continue to demonstrate it to me every day.” Then he concluded: “I was recently in a factory, I was able to reflect on how many work about ten hours a day just to bring home a salary. I understood many precious things. One above all: if a worker lost his job, he his whole family would pay the consequences. Well, for this too I consider myself lucky. I made a mistake, but I didn’t lose anything.”
