Sup, often gambling is blamed for making people part with their money, or casinos are blamed for existing, or government is blamed for allowing gambling in particular country, and along the lines.

Point being, just because there is gambling available, at the end of the day, it's individual's own choice that (s)he decided do it, and no one is to be blamed except oneself if something bad happens.

Do you take responsibility for your losses, or do you play blame game?


Yes. I gamble consciously and don't blame others. Because gambling is a personal decision, blaming others is incredibly foolish. Even when we register on gambling sites, they ask for age and then there are signs stating that the decision to gamble is a personal choice, not coercion. The reason for the age restriction is because age influences our decision-making process before gambling.

We humans are logical creatures all actions and decisions are based on rational consideration. Therefore, human decisions and choices are influenced by information and careful consideration, including when it comes to gambling. When we gamble, it's our choice, and the consequences are our responsibility, not the government, casinos, or anyone else. Furthermore, gambling has existed since ancient times, so every decision to gamble is your own, including the risks involved.
