The only way to stop gambling is never to get involve, once you are in, its so hard to stop than to begins. Its fun, and some days you win and sort some bills out. Some days you are depressed for losing money, you should have used for other stuff.
I hardly win when I'm tired, I've tried multiple times, and at best it's my point of no return. Too many players switch their gambling interest to something else when they begin to sense terrible things happe to their life. So, not everyone is stuck not to exit anymore. But any newbie that thinks they'll be no going back to where they came from, can decide not to play at all.
