Yes, money that becomes a medium of exchange with the sensation of pleasure in my opinion is equivalent because the sensation that is felt also makes us happy, although sometimes upset with the defeat that is obtained, but in my opinion it is equivalent to the sensation felt by each player because the name is also a game there will definitely be a win or lose but if you lose continuously we should be aware, instead of chasing losses that can make us even lose more money. They will not easily realize the money they have lost a lot because of gambling, maybe they will realize when they have lost a lot and when they don't have money anymore, they will think about it. By realizing the losses they have experienced it might make them realize and stop gambling and start a new business that can be profitable for themselves.
And in my opinion, with gambling that produces but is not sure that it will always be profitable for them, of course it is better for them to start their own business with the potential to grow big if it is carried out properly and the management is also good. if they already have a lot of new money they can gamble with the value of bets that might be large but it's better if they don't do gambling si. Or even do gambling by just making it as entertainment because if they are lucky, they will definitely make a profit for themselves.
Gamblers who lose when gambling will only feel annoyed and regretful because they have used too much money and will want to try to recover their losses. He knew it might not be easy but he still wanted to try because he still had money and wanted to try his luck even though the percentage of winning was small. That's a person who still wants to take the risk of losing by using his money to try to recover from his losses. But if he could learn from what happened, he wouldn't want to try it because it would mean he had the possibility of losing more than he could have imagined and there was a chance he would lose all his money at once. The sensation of win will only stay for some time but the sensation of loss will stay longer and he will think about it all the time and want to recover from his loss.
Gambling can indeed make money, but they may experience a lot of losses before they can win. Unfortunately, the wins they can get are not as big as the losses they have achieved. And if they realize that and don't rely on gambling to make money and can look for other alternatives, such as getting a job or starting their own business, that can definitely give them the opportunity to make money. And it would be better for them to make money in their efforts than for them to try to make money from gambling, which would definitely be more difficult.
They continue like that, not realizing that they are already rich when counting the money they have lost due to gambling. With the aim of recovering losses it is very unlikely to happen. In fact, if it's like that, in my opinion, they will lose more money because the victory that never gets and uncontrollable emotions make them want to continue to pursue victory or restore the losses they have experienced. people like this are usually people who cannot accept risks so they always gamble continuously. And it's true that you said the sensation of winning will last for a while unlike the sensation of losing which they will certainly feel for a long time.
I think the percentage of wins and losses in gambling will definitely be greater than the percentage of losses. Because in any gambling there is already a bookie who organizes everything and the bookie will also not easily give just any victory to the players. And the victory obtained by them will also not be comparable to the defeat they feel like you said that, many depend on gambling so they make gambling their main income. But of course this is wrong, they should look for work for the main income or open a business, and can imagine the money that has been lost because of gambling, if you think about it, it seems like it can be used to start a business that will certainly be profitable.
