Yes, you are spot on.
The casino basically sells hope, and charges a lot for it.
In the end, the gamblers usually would have gotten a much better future if they invested their money instead of gambling it away.
But that's the high they get, the probability to win a lot of money in a short amount of time. Even though at the end of the day most gamblers will lose it all.
It's all because people are tempted to make money quickly through gambling so they forget or don't realize that they will only lose their money. And if gamblers can find other ways to make money, they can get it and you are giving them good advice by investing their money rather than risking it.
And only some people are willing to look for other ways to make money. Most people will continue to use gambling to make money even if they have failed many times. After experiencing loss, instead of realizing it, they become emotional and cannot accept their loss.
Yes, that's right, I agree with that, at first they tried to gamble and when they were given a win at the start with the promise of getting a bigger win, without realizing this was a bad start, if at the start they got a win then they would think differently. gambling can make them rich quickly, as time goes by and they always lose, instead of being aware of the defeat, they will try to do anything to be able to gamble again in the hope of getting a big win that will turn their situation around.
This is the fear that if they are addicted to gambling, the bad impact that they will feel is that they are thirsty for a big win, they could do something negative, whatever it is, there must be someone who can criticize or direct and make people aware of this gambling addiction, even though this will bring debate. when the gambler cannot accept direction or criticism aimed at them.
