A lot of new gamblers sees it as a do or die affair if they don't win their games and that is why they turn out to be more addicted in gambling because they keep on chasing their losses and ends up becoming a liability/ burden to their families, now the question is must you gamble to make money?

Are there no other means to make money or become wealthy except through gambling?

After knowing fully that gambling wins are not guaranteed, some persons don't even win at all within a year then why having such mentality of making money through gambling, or is it that their is a certain phenomenon attracting people to gambling that is difficult to understand aside from the entertainment aspect of gambling, because it's really funny to see most people nowadays gambling for money and not for the entertainment aspect even if we have little mindset of winning some day.

Gambling isn't a must neither a do or die affair, and I don't actually see the need of gambling when you are not making wins, you gamble you loose you gamble again, what's the essence of doing that is it an investment platform that at the end of a particular period of time you get your money back with income?
Most people don't understand that gambling is a game of win and loose tho the losses are usually many but at least there are supposed to be win's form player not just dashing the platform money and putting yourself in a financial bondage .

Many new gamblers actually approach it like a battlefield thinking if they don’t win then they must try again until they recover their losses but the truth is that this is exactly what pulls them deeper into addiction because losses in gambling are not something that can be chased away with more bets the more someone chases the more they sink and eventually it doesn’t just affect them but their family and loved ones too. Gambling should never be seen as the only option to make money because there are countless other ways to build wealth through skills investments business or even consistent savings but because gambling offers that illusion of quick money it becomes attractive especially to those who don’t have patience for the long process of building success the irony is that what looks like the fastest route usually ends up being the hardest fall.

There’s also this psychological pull in gambling the thrill of maybe winning one day keeps people hooked even though deep down they know the odds are against them it’s like chasing shadows and convincing yourself that one big win will change everything but that win doesn’t come for everyone and for many it never comes at all. So why keep feeding an activity that doesn’t guarantee returns unlike a real investment platform gambling doesn’t promise profit at the end of a cycle it’s not structured for players to win consistently it’s designed for the house to profit and for most people the result is endless losses. Gambling isn’t a must it’s not a do or die affair and if it doesn’t bring joy or entertainment then it makes no sense to keep doing it it becomes a cycle of handing money over to the platform while destroying your own finances and peace of mind.
