I agree with this. Tracking your losses is like yourself slapping you in the face saying how dumb you are in managing your income. Instead of spending it on gambling, you should save it for your future, especially if you have kids, because the responsibility as a parent always come first, you should be mature to think about your kids future, and not yours anymore.

Another thing about gamblers is that they are all optimistic, just in a bad way though, lol. Their eyes got glued on the "profits" (pun intended) in gambling in which they will never have in the long run if they don't really fit in it.
