Gambling is such a bad addiction that when a person indulges in it, a temptation works in that person and even if he win a huge amount, his greed does not diminish and he goes on to gamble again and again. and a huge sum of money he/shel continue to invest on gambling purpose .and at some point he loses his entire money there. So you have to control yourself from the time you start gambling otherwise you won't be able to control yourself later
Do you think that controlling yourself is an easy task in gambling? This is one of the most difficult tasks for me. That is why before gambling one should be sure about the purpose of gambling. If a gambler is financially well and spends his busy days with his working, the word addiction will never come up. But most of the time what happens is long time gambling in a day leads to addiction.
Self contr is one of the biggest challenge as a gambler and sometimes when I see people talking about gambling addiction and making decisions easily, I just laugh because you like you ha e explained, it is never easy to control oneself when someone had already been into gambling for long.
I could remember when I was little, not even of to the age of been qualified to gamble. I normal go to gambling house to look at the way people gambles and ask some questions at times. As time goes on I because a addicted gambling even though I never have the fund to gamble to my satisfaction. What really saved me then was the day my father came to the gambling house to warning the owner of the place of arresting him if he sees me there again.
