I guess I'm not a very smart person because I learned from my mistakes, not from others. 🤷

When I was young, I played roulette for a while and as a result suffered from gambling addiction for a long time. Eventually, I had to resort to special psychological tricks to trick my brain and cure myself of this addiction. 🤹

Of course, I lost a lot of precious time (and some money). I didn't lose much money, oddly enough, I was very lucky in gambling. However, I feel very sorry for the lost time... In addition, I am very ashamed of myself - I behaved like a fool.🐧

However, as the famous proverb says: "Where there is evil, there is good nearby." As a result of all these events, I have changed a lot. I have become a much less gambling person (maybe I even developed a certain immunity to gambling addiction). And this is, on the one hand, a plus, on the other - a minus. The plus is that I am no longer ready to lose big money in gambling, playing 24 hours a day and 7 days a week.  The downside is that now I don't really like taking risks, and, for example, when trading cryptocurrency in a bull market, the ability to take risks can bring big profits. In general, being willing to take risks allows you to achieve success in life. 🪂

That's why I use gambling as a kind of training (I train my risk tolerance, I learn not to be afraid of risk). For me, gambling in online casinos is a kind of simulator on which you can pump up certain psychological qualities.💪
