Most of the time it will really be on someones mistake on decision making on why they do mess up their lives just because they are really that making themselves too delusional
that they could really be able to get all the loses that they do have earlier which is really that a very wrong mindset.
When a gambler thinks that gambling will be a source of income, and can change his life, that's when he has destroyed himself and his family. I agree with you. Most gambling addicts are trapped in the delusion that they will soon hit the jackpot. They keep making deposits and spending more money in the hope that one jackpot will bring it all back. Eventually this will be a continuous loss and will bankrupt him. Gambling is not a place where you make money. It's just a game and you pay to play it. Getting prizes is a bonus. But it is important for a gambling addict to think that gambling is not a place to make money.
