So in weekends in my departmental WhatsApp group, we just randomly talk about soccer bets and sometimes drop a particular game and keep it open for correct score prediction to be made on it, and the first person with the correct score goes home with a data subscription, this has been going on for almost two years now and people have gotten used to it without knowing it.

This is one of the chat I just bumped into by one of us in the group chat and at this point I feel most of my friend have made it compulsory to always gamble every weekend.



Do you see this as addiction or just catching of fun?

Mind you, we just enjoy the moment and might just joke around with people making predictions based on the teams,  they love but we are mostly gamblers at our different ends.


I think it's pretty much BS. Gambling is nowhere near to give you generational wealth, unless you are a casino owner. It sure is not impossible, but it will take a really long while before you can be successful as a gambler. Mostly, it will not really come from being a full time gambler yourself, but having other means to have income such as being a live streamer or content creator about gambling, being an affiliate or ambassador, and having referral links and codes to generate more profit. But if you will just solely rely on gambling, you need to have strong mental health for it and lots of funds. Additionally, you must have a strong sense of discipline and responsibility so that you won't get lost in the process of achieving your goal to have more money.
