As a general dynamic, I'd like to know what you do when you're not gambling. I mean, I don't expect you to tell me about your life. The question is more focused on: What activity you do is above gambling? I mean, something you prioritize in your life more than gambling, or what you like to do. What would make you stop watching the Champions League final, for example?
I have to admit that, in my life, gambling is not one of the most important activities by far. We all have a scale of values and I think that if you put your health, family, work, friends... on top, you'll be ok. The problem comes when you sacrifice some of these things and put a hobby, substance or, in the end, a vice in their place.
I know that your second question was just an example, it is difficult to have other important things to do the very moment the Campions League final is being played; but I would definitely sacrifice it if a friend or relative needed my attention, if I had to work or if the doctor asked me to skip it for any reasons. And the same with gambling: it can't become a priority in my life, and it must stay as a mere hobby.
