In order to understand the psychology of gamblers, i have decided to come up few questions for discussions, and here is the first one.
Suppose that you are a responsible gambler who have allocated a certain portion of money to gamble each month. Now you came across a poor person/family who is in urgent need of money. Will you quit the gambling for that month and give the allocated money to the poor family or will you prefer to gamble as you can't live without gambling ?
There is always a poor family or charity or organization that is in desperate need for money. Personally I allocate a certain percentage of my yearly salary to charity. I often put together charity auctions here on bitcointalk and find it extremely important to give back. So the truth is if I do well gambling, the more I am able to donate to charitable organizations that I support.
these organizations and charities need constant help because they are taking care of people without any conditions to get food, so even if a person stops 1 month or even 2 months and takes the money to help these organizations or charities it will not be the ultimate solution to the problem. problem. first because the person would need to send a lot of money because they house many families, so little money will not be enough to feed all people; second after 2 months they will need money. so the best help would be to give them a source of income
In my case, I would stop playing for 1 or 2 or 3 months if necessary to help the family member and the reason is simple: I take a part of the money destined for fun and use it to have fun in the game of chance so this money is already counted as lost money, but as a person is in need of help it makes more sense to take the money I allocated to the game of chance and help the person who is in need of help, in addition to saving someone's life, one day that person can also help me if I need help, of course even if they don't help me I won't be sad, because I'm helping you unconditionally. I know that most people tend to be ungrateful, today you help them and tomorrow when they are in good health they pretend that you never did anything for them, that's part of life. maybe that's why people don't help others anymore
