If you read it again, you will know that it is not a solution to overcome someone's gambling addiction in the long term. What I recommend is for people who want to experience gambling games but without depositing any money and only using fake money. I am not writing that it is a solution for those who want to overcome their gambling addiction. You should be able to differentiate between those who are addicted to gambling and those who just want to experience gambling without losing money. They can still experience gambling games in casinos and use fake money given by the casino.
I wouldn't say that unless someone tries it first because there's no way that even if I think that it's a funny solution, there's still a chance that it might work you know. There's a hospice for dementia patients in Europe that created a fake bus stop for their patients because it helped them prevent the people afflicted by that dementia to not get lost because most dementia patients wander around familiar places and it just so happens that bus stops are the most familiar for these patients and yes it's not a long-term but you can see the effects of it which is the reduction of these people wandering aimlessly, that's the same with your solution of fake money, you might not see the benefit yet but it's there and there's nothing wrong with trying.
