Wise decision you say OP. Gambling is a risk, and do you think that so many persons believe taking risk is a wise decision? Taking risk is a terrible decision in my opinion that is why it is advisable to gamble with money we do not have a serous need for. Using your emergency fund, money for monthly expenses and investment to gamble is not a good idea. I have a different amount i keep for gambling of which i know if i lose any day i won't be depressed or be in debt.
From his voice he seems like one whose lost hope has been restored by that single win. Gambling can be a life saver too for it's not as bad as non-gamblers portrays it. To all gamblers' when you get lucky make good use of your gambling win do not chase for double portion.
Yes, not only can gambling be a hope restorer, but it has also been a life changer to many who gambled and luckily won a huge sum, because one similarity I have come to notice about all those who won this huge sum while gambling is that non ever knew they will win when they won, but it all came as a surprise, hence, this should be a lesson to all of us to always have an open mind while gambling, so as to accept whatever result that may come our way with an amount we can always afford to lose, so that if we win, we accept it that way, but if we lose, we also accept it with good fate without regret. Rather than gambling all you have with the mindset gambling will someday restore your hope.
It can only be a hope restorer with luck. I think this part is very relatable. Most of the times i get to win in gambling is when i gamble with the last penny i kept for gambling and luckily i win with some extra bucks on top. So yes, there is hope when there is money to gamble if you are out of gambling funds there is no hope.
