I dont agree that there is "no amount is affordable to lose", that every bet counts. It all comes down to budget. What needed is to stick to rule of gambling - if anyone wants to gamble, he or she should be ready to lose. Nobody wants to lose, that is a fact, but gambling can not exist without losing. Can not afford to lose or waste gambling budget - dont gamble, just do that. Find alternative form of fun and earning money, having a feeling of a risk. Just remember kids, there are so little things that are free today, so prepare to spend money.
