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.
gambling is just a game that involves betting. we can just have fun but not like that. most gamblers come to gambling games to win. even for gamblers who only think about having fun. I'm sure they still have the thought of winning the bet.
I know there must be limits to gambling activities. and that's what will help gamblers not get addicted. One of you starts to get addicted when you spend all your salary to bet. and after you lose you are confused about your fate before the next pay period.
I will try to limit my envy so as not to become addicted. although several times I have bet beyond my ability. there is no real way to get out of gambling addiction except bitter experience. it can make us more aware of the importance of control from within responsible gambling.
