Hi guys
I had a business partnership with a person abroad.
At the beginning everything went well and we earned a lot of money together.
One day my business partner asked me for an investment. I trusted him and gave the money.
But now I found out that he is a gambling addict and went to the casino and gambled away my money.
He is hiding now because he is afraid of me, I can't fly abroad at the moment because of Covid.
I could have him arrested right away with one phone call, but then he would go to prison for a very long time.
In his country they have very strict laws and the prisons are horrible.
What should I do? Forgive him? Teach him a lesson?
I know I will never see the money again. It hurts me more that I was lied to because I trusted him.
What would you do in my situation? Dump him and focus on my business?
