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 ?
Therefore we need to have proper financial management. Where there are often so-called unexpected funds. For example, in one month we get $500, and there are parts that have been allocated. 10%, 20%, 5% (unexpected funds) and so on. So that the funds for gambling are not disturbed. As for helping people in need, that includes unexpected funds that we can give. Remember to help when our needs are met. The point is to be wise in making decisions about who to give donations. Because considering that there are so many poor people out there in need. Even we ourselves feel we are still lacking and do not feel like affluent people.
