So laziness do contribute to irresponsible gambling.
Or you think I am wrong? It's very hard to make money in the real world this days, too many people are jobless because of economy or lack of business slots available and this has a negative impact on people.
Many addicted gamblers I know are not ready to go the normal hard route to make money, they are isolated and finding ways to make the money easily then gambling became the only option to them.
I am saying all these people because i did helped two people on my tuff or so I thought, I found them web3 jobs online and since they love isolating themselves I should be easy, I waited patiently thinking that finally they will escape the tense of gambling and losing money and focus on having a life but they started complaining that they can't wait long to make money.
It's like they won't want to work and yet gambling isn't helping either, I guess this effect happened because they have tasted how it feel like to win some money through gambling so they shut every other doors.
Laziness might be the initial motivation but I would say self-delusion is the fueling force behind most gambling addictions. They make themselves actually believe in their own bullshit that they can somehow outmaneuver mathematics itself and make gambling a full time job with a steady income. This is of course impossible. Or perhaps they think they can become rich someday as long as they keep trying. Either way, both trains of thought lead to the same train wreck. A ruined life and no money.
