Why do we associate gambling with pride? I think we can't pride ourselves because we are gamblers. Everyone knows that gambling is a person's choice when they grow up and it is their own choice. This is the same as you choosing to drink alcohol. Gambling can make you addicted. And alcohol can make you very drunk and you will do things that violate the law. So when you decide to gamble, it means you are responsible for yourself. I personally don't like it when many people know I gamble, even when I win the jackpot. I think not everyone will have the responsibility of gambling like me.
