I just noticed here in our city, that two brothers own different gambling platforms people have different impressions of each one of them, the first one owns a lottery outlet and he is getting respect from people from all walks of life, people look upon him as a giver of luck because many people hit consolations from his Lotto outlet

The other one is the owner of Cockpit Arena and many people despise him because many of their husbands and fathers lose a lot of money and go home empty-handed
I wonder why these two brothers receive different impressions when both are running a gambling platform, honestly, I prefer my friends and relatives to bet on the lotto but I advise them to be careful when playing in a cockpit, because in a cockpit arena, you can wipe out all your money and you end up empty-handed because the games are continuous you have no control and you are tempted to continue playing or lose everything whereas in Lotto you can allocate your bets.
Do you have the same situation like this in your country where gambling operators are not getting the same treatment?
I think we live on the same country. Well, people's perception is based on what type of gambling platform they offer. People see lotteries as form of entertainment that is based on luck wherein they can win big prices by just staking small amount of money. While for the other brother who owns a cockpit, in our country it's perceived negatively because many fathers who are involved in this type of gambling mostly affects their family financially due to high stakes that can lead to huge losses. It's important to be aware of the risk and make informed decisions of the type of gambling you want to get involved to
