Do you think problem gamblers can save on themselves to start living in the "bright future" they hope for after a big win at the casino?
The same goes for problem bettors and sports betting.
If they can get out of their addiction after winning, then yes, if not, then no. gambling addicts gamble not because so they can win a large amount of money and change their lives for the better(you can see a lot of stories out there where gamblers win a big amount and lose it all again after repeatedly gambling their winnings), they gamble because they get "high" when gambling, from what I have read, the brain releases dopamine when gamblers experience winning, which can be addictive like how adrenaline can be addictive too.
