I believe that gambling can give you lessons in life as it teaches you that losing is not the end of the game , the most important part of it is to keep trying over over until you win . It teaches you also how harmful addiction is and that everyone should have self control instead of letting his addiction take over the commands .
But if we keep trying over and over again till we win, that means we will be addicted too fast. If we did that, we get no lesson yet from gambling. The real lesson from gambling is when we able to change our perseption regarding it. From, a way to get easy money - toward - a way to have fun only!
The problem is people usually always feel not satisfied on lost although you are planning to have fun since first time gambling.
That makes your perseption inversely with your action when it is live .
No wonder people do that , gambling always attracts with that way. That wasn't a lesson at all for me , nothing really you can get as a lesson from gambling , yeaaa unfortunately.
