Found himself in debt

According to the caption of the video, the man bought a lottery ticket every week with the numbers provided by the monk.

The monk had reportedly convinced the man that the numbers he gave would surely strike the lottery.

The man believed the monk and supposedly even borrowed money from loan sharks to buy lottery tickets.

Unfortunately, he did not win and found himself in debt.

This led him to strike the monk.

No one to blame but himself

Many commenters believe that the man has no one to blame but himself for the predicament he was in.

A commenter suggested that the man should be more realistic and work hard to earn money instead of relying on a lottery.

Another commenter called the man a fool, who blamed someone else for his own troubles.

Meanwhile, one commenter said that if the man actually wins the lottery, there will be no poor people in Thailand.
