But when you go to a restaurant and drink $ 100 wine (which costs $ 20 in a regular store), you also have no chance of getting a refund or even saving your money
But a lot of people behave like this and it suits them, they consider such spending to be acceptable. I think the majority of casino visitors think the same - it's simple spending on entertainment, not dumb money.
I agree with that, most casino goers are just having fun, they can even spend money on drinks that are expensive just to enjoy their time in a casino, so there's nothing to complain about, we just need to change our mindset and consider gambling as entertainment so it will not hunt us and we are safe from getting addicted.
^ That is why we gamble on what we can afford because it is purely entertainment not your source of income. You guys, the example above was right, just like watching a movie in a theater, you will not entertain very well if you won't buy popcorn and of course, drinks which additional cost. Those people who are in addicted to gambling are just they are greedy because they gamble just to aim for money, and even though they can't afford it they will always looking ways just to continue their habit.
