For me, Im not addicted to gambling because I can control my self to play or not, and I know how to control my money when to bet on gambling, I also gamble just for fun, sometime I do it when I feel bored, for me its just a pass time and yes, sometimes I dream to win a jackpot on gambling.
Good thing it happen to you mate and you actually see any possible things it happen once you've been addicted. Not all of us has been like this, some of gamblers lost their mind once they lose in gambling. I've been in gambling before but it is sad that I don't have such luck in gambling and it may be, this is not the right place for me.
Indeed, you were just right but there are some people or let say gambling enthusiast that they don't after the money had to lose as long as they are just satisfied and entertained will. For me on my own, I gamble because I enjoy it no matter how much the cost was being lost. Always having a good mindset is the best way to gain money.
