This is a simple question, but one with a much deeper meaning.

Have you ever considered the reason behind your gambling habit or in some cases addiction? Do you gamble for fun or do you gamble for potential profit?

Do you gamble because you are bored or because you have some medical condition that prevents you from going out to experience other type of entertainment?

Do you gamble, because you hope that a big jackpot will solve all your debt problems or that a big jackpot would fund your dreams?

We should always consider why we do specific things in life and if those things are constructive or damaging in some way and then evaluate our actions to prevent harmful situations.

Looking forward to your responses.  Cheesy

Okay, this is a personal opinion… I believe that those who gamble for fun are the ones who become addicted to gambling and that's very bad you know. But when you're gambling because your purpose is to make money, you will cut it off quickly when you notice that you're not making profit from it. I don't really gamble much and mainly what I do is sports betting and before I bet on any sports I will need to be very sure that this is going to be a win, although sometimes it doesn't come out as a win. Lately I haven't been gambling… cause I got a good job and I believe I'm okay with it. Why gamble when I already have a job that pays fine?
