It got me thinking whether people think that gambling success stories can only be if you recover from gambling? Is that really the end goal? To rid of gambling as an activity?
As a compulsive gambler, being able to stop and stay away from gambling is a success for him and it is the ultimate goal. But for gamblers who consider gambling as a place to make money, they will feel successful if they get a big win from their bets. That way the gambler will feel proud after getting a big win and keep gambling consistently to get the same win.
