He stressed that working in a casino exposes you to irresistible desires to gamble and you can do little about it.

That means he do not know the statistics of the gamblers that are winning versus those that are losing.

I told him that it's possible to save part of the money and gamble with the rest and this was my strategy.

Tell him to stop gambling for months to know if he can control himself not to waste money.

This got me thinking and I decided to share it here, is it not possible to work in a casino and not gamble?
Are there other behavioral patterns that could be employed to reduce gambling excessively while working in a casino?
Let me have your thoughts on this.

It is possible to work in a casino and not gamble at all. Some people discipline themselves than other people.

To the last question. Tell him not to gamble at all. Losing money that he can not afford to lose is not an entertainment. If gambling is not entertaining you, stop gambling. He may start again after some months of self-exclusion.

I definitely agree to this also that he can possibly stay away from gambling while working and everyone sure Will if they discipline themselves like you said,I know of a friend that works in some place as this and when he comes back home he shares his experiences to me and we talk over it too.

What he said was, almost all his colleagues are gambling while working and they tend to loose some money cause sometimes they borrow from the companies funds to cover up and when be paid monthly stipends it's been deducted from there.but for him it's a loss and he can't try it,tho they get little tips from customers and all that and it's enough to tackle little bills and what he said that amaze me is that,he said working in such places create awareness to learn from Life..
And I know why he said this, definitely seeing different stuffs going on there it's an avenue to learn both Good and bad.
