There are people out there who do not want to play gambling at all because they think that once they do, they will fall into addiction. Of course, we know it’s not that immediate nor easy but it makes me wonder whether there’s some truth to that. Is it better to avoid addiction in the first place by completely devoiding yourself of doing that activity instead of playing and getting addicted only to try and recover afterwards?
Of course there is, and this topic has nothing to do with gambling in fact. Prevention is always better than the cure, there is practically no case in life where this is not true. Cars? Preventing your breaks from failing by replacing them on time is much better than getting into a car crash. Health? Doing a yearly checkup is better than getting a difficult disease, late cancer detection or anything similar. The list goes on. The problem of the world is that most people are backwards. They are lazy, undisciplined, do not have any knowledge and most of their views are wrong. If you don't want to risk an addiction in your life, simply never engage in any behavior that is addiction prone. You won't know things if you didn't try it and somehow how people can conclude about those things if they didn't have any experience. So maybe if they really like to gamble then try it so that they will not became ignorant and say some statement without any good basis.
You are a real genius with a brain on the level of a 3 year old.

You are a real genius with a brain on the level of a 3 year old. I have some advice for you. You will never know how it feels to jump of a 10 story building if you don't try it. Go ahead and try it and let us know how this experience is.. Dumb idiot.
