Let me ask you something, I’d like to know how you treat the money you use for gambling. Do you consider it an expense or an investment? These two should be approached very differently. Just like in business, expenses don’t generate income, while investments are meant to grow. What do you think? Please explain your answer as well.
I invest in gambling with the hope of profit, but when my luck is bad, I face losses instead of profits. Then I consider gambling as an investment for me. If I participate in gambling to keep myself in a good mood when I am not feeling well, then I consider gambling as an expense. Because then my main purpose is just to have fun and in that case I don't consider gambling as part of the profit.
