Bro, some people drop $20 on a salad and still go home depressed....
If I burn $20 and I’m laughing, locked in, sweating a last-minute corner kick or bonus spin -- that’s VALUE all day!!
The way I see it -- is it is entertainment that has the potential to pay bills. You don’t call Netflix a scam when it eats your time and gives you nothing back lol. At least with gambling you might spike something crazy and flex for the week.
Also depends where you play. Some places give decent rewards or rakeback, so it doesn’t feel like a raw loss every time. It’s like buying fun with cashback. XD 😎
