It's amazing, but many gamblers play casinos just to get rid of the money. Many writers, musicians and poets have played in casinos and lost large sums of money. They had no money after they lost and to support themselves they wrote their works. Losing was an inspiration to them.
If they make more money from their music then it doesn't really matter losing large sums. Celebrities and artists have a whole different concept of money and I am always a bit cautious when I hear stories that famous people lost everything at gambling. It's hard to verify such stories and it could also be an attempt to get more publicity. Artists get more money the more famous they are, and negative stories attract more readers than positive ones. What we see from these stories that casinos entertain rich and poor people alike, we all play the same type of games. It's better to make up our own mind about gambling and not listen to celebrities. Just because someone else losses large sums of money, or wins the jackpot doesn't mean the same is going to happen to us. We all have the choice to stop whenever we want.
