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 ?

I would personally not give them money, when comes to donations to people in need I prefer to give food or medicine because in the most of the cases I can't be sure the money I give won't be mishandled, spent in drugs or alcohol. Also, I think I would donate part of those funds in food/medicine/clothes but not all of it, perhaps 3/4 (depending on the total amount), since it is not ideal for people to get accustomed to live off other's money, each one of us have our individual responsibilities. This does not mean we should not give to the people in need though, just be aware our kindness give a relief rather than a solution to all problems someone may have.

I would prefer the same specially if they are really that in need then it would be mostly into those things like food and medicine.If you do give them money then it could really be used on various
things like buying some cigarettes or even on other vices which they might have which it isnt really that too much appealing on sharing up some money just for you to feed their vices.
Its better to give food directly or drinks which is something that needs for daily living and survival.Well, we do have our own impressions and mindset towards things
whether you would really be that too soft and do care or someone who doesnt really give a damn since you do really like to play.
