This won't help mate as most of the people here will have an expected feed back. Although we already know that there's benefit in gambling but otherwise we don't have the same feathers.
"Gambling is not good" , "gambling is harmful" etc.
No doubt gambling is bad, gambling is harmful and there are many bad effects of gambling on the whole. Gambling is beneficial for those who are experts and they know the tricks to win the bet. They can make big money in seconds, while other who has no or very little experience of gambling can lose all their money. Gambling is good only for experts.
Except maybe you are playing poker and which still do come with a bit of luck, there is actually nothing or no one called experts in gambling. The only thing that makes you a sane gambler is when you know you to use your reasoning alongside your gambling activity.
Those who know the possibilities of losing in gambling is pretty high, usually do not try to gain something from it and the only thing they can consider gaining is fun while paying for it, unless they just get lucky to win something good and with that kind of mentality, it helps them to not lose focus.
