Marketing vs. Reality.

Gambling success stories—like the legendary tale of Fred Smith, FedEx’s founder who reportedly saved his company by gambling in Las Vegas—are rare but are prominently featured in ads.

Casinos and gambling platforms regularly advertise big winners to inspire others to play, while losses and failures are downplayed or ignored, creating an unrealistic picture of gambling outcomes.

Many point out these stories serve as marketing strategies, does not representative experiences.
