The hopes they have are big, but on the other hand, the hopes that every gambler has tend to get them into serious problems, even endangering their health, including their mental health. I think that if someone gambles considering it as a source of income, it will only ruin their life, because it is not unusual for me to see someone whose life is a mess because of their bad habits, namely gambling, prioritizing the right principles in gambling can make them gamble well. , because I think those who experience a lot of bad things are because they don't prioritize the principle of entertainment, and of course that's wrong, because the truth is, as you said, gambling is only entertainment.
In my opinion, awareness will be difficult to achieve, even though maybe some of them want to consult about their habits, but in my opinion they also have a shy side to admit it, but if they have awareness that what they are doing is wrong, in my opinion it is already good, because by I think they will stop gambling, or reduce their gambling activities.
They may have high hopes of winning the gambling game, but they should be able to see the reality because winning the gambling game is very difficult and even though they gamble every day, they will not always be able to win. There will be defeats that will come to them and take a lot of their money if they cannot control themselves well. And when they lose control of themselves in gambling, they will only destroy their lives so that it will be difficult to recover their lives again. It will also cause other problems where they will experience gambling addiction, which is also difficult to cure. That is the biggest impact that can be experienced by any gambler who loses control of themselves and there will be other impacts that they will feel. That's why people need to use gambling as entertainment so they don't exceed their limits in gambling.
However, you must always maintain self-awareness so you don't lose self-control when gambling. They really need to control themselves by limiting their gambling so that they don't exceed what they can afford because if they continue to gamble beyond their limits, they will only experience losing even more money. If they can reduce their gambling activities or even stop their gambling activities, that is the biggest blessing for them because they can avoid the problems that can arise from gambling excessively.
