I tried searching for the best gambling stories and the ones that popped up were full of gambling recoveries. A lot of them highlighted of how gambling ruined their life but for some reason, usually one involving religion, they got better. I was expecting more of stories where a gambler won a significant amount. Extreme lucky kind of stories.
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?
Maybe you didn't put in the correct keywords when you were searching about the gambling success stories. The web searcher might have thought you were searching about people that recovered from their gambling addictions since that's what many people are searching as gambling addiction is becoming a big problem in the society. Why I think so is because there are many gambling success stories of people winning lots of money online. In the nation league finals that Spain lost to Portugal. There was a story of people betting on Ronaldo to win and to score and their best came in positive that made them to make money. In other games too, people have been winning big from gambling and this isn't happening only in football games but when playing casino games too
