My experience with gambling has never been as bad as the cases I see in real life, and I can confirm that the majority of people engage in heavy gambling, such that gambling becomes a symptom of a pathological condition (behavioral addiction).
So that's a big advantage you had, I didn't have it, practically what I learned about the casino was through trial and error, I made all the mistakes when I was a novice, I ran out of money, well a series of things, I never became addicted because I have a family to support and that was what really didn't let me go any further, however there are people who don't give it importance and give in to addiction, when I entered the forum and read all the advice I realized that I made all those mistakes, after that I learned a lot more, greed was undoubtedly one of the feelings I had the most, it wasn't easy to learn, but now I play in a controlled manner.
By the way, having a family doesn't mean you can't become an addict. Many, if not most, addicts have families, and often the financial pressures of family needs are the motivation for gambling in the hope of making a quick, easy profit. Meanwhile, there are players who don't have families and never become addicted. The matter is the individual's ability to fulfill their responsibilities, whether with or without a family. Gambling addicts are often unproductive and lack anything of value, including skills, experience, and expertise.
Personally, I've learned a lot about the gambling industry through the forum here because the discussions are very rich, and even non-gamblers can gain valuable insights into this industry, which has greatly helped the crypto sector reach the popularity it enjoys today.
