Re: Drinking vs Gambling

I never allow myself to play even with light alcohol, something like beer, because I understand perfectly how it works. It all starts small, when you just want to relax, and ends with just lost money, because alcohol dulls our feelings and we are ready to take more risks and even not control it at all. There have already been millions of such stories and it is better to draw conclusions and learn from other players than to go through this path yourself, experiencing everything on yourself.

That is the way it should be, personally I know that things with alcohol are very delicate, that is why I have always said, alcohol plus money are not compatible at all, just like driving, you cannot drive with alcohol because the life of the person driving and those on board is very much in danger, it is okay to drink just a little but not too much, whatever you do to cool down, that way nothing happens, the bad thing is when the person starts to get dizzy or happy.

We drink alcohol even though we know that it is harmful to the human body. I have seen some people who gamble while intoxicated. I think gambling while intoxicated is a big wrong decision. Because when a person is intoxicated, he is not in a normal state, at that time if he gambles, he is not in control of himself, so he cannot even think about whether his money will be at risk by making a wrong decision.

This is why one should never gamble in a state of intoxication, or even take it, one should stay away from it completely, because this leads to deep physical harm to a person and also makes him lose control of himself, due to which he also faces a lot of financial disaster. It is very true that in a state of intoxication, a person loses the ability to understand right from wrong, and if he gets involved in something like gambling, then there will be no way for him to escape from the disaster. So I think if a person can stay away from drugs in particular, then it is good for him in all aspects.

Alcohol and gambling is one of the most dangerous combinations because both activities already involve risk and once they are mixed together the control that a person usually has starts to fade away decisions that could be carefully thought out while sober suddenly become reckless moves that lead to losses the sad part is that many realize this truth only after it is too late after money is gone after health is affected and sometimes after relationships are damaged it is far better to avoid putting yourself in such a situation in the first place. Many people use alcohol as a way to relax from stress but when relaxation turns into dependency it quietly opens the door to more problems if you add gambling on top of that it becomes a cycle that is hard to break because one loss leads to another drink and another drink leads to another bad decision the cycle continues until everything is gone self control disappears completely that is why it is wise to place boundaries before ever reaching that state if someone truly values their finances health and peace of mind then gambling should be done with full awareness and alcohol should be avoided to maintain that awareness.

There are people who will argue that a single drink will not hurt but even one small slip can sometimes trigger bigger problems especially for those who already struggle with emotional balance or stress gambling requires patience and clarity of thought while alcohol brings confusion and impulsiveness they simply cannot go hand in hand keeping the mind sharp and the body healthy will always provide better results than chasing excitement under the influence in the long run staying away from intoxicants will not just help in gambling decisions but also in maintaining a more stable and successful life overall.
