It's addictive because gambling is a one-time big-time opportunity to profit and earn instant money based on your luck and timing. Even gamblers lose a bet, they always want their money to return even they are loosing more and more, they became braver because of their passion to win again. I don't gamble much but when I'm feeling lucky I go for it! and withdraw my winnings instantly in case of losing all my balance in a blink.

Gambling offers the opportunity to become rich almost without doing anything and those who like easy money will come back again to try again. You need to set a limit for the game in order not to lose everything.
Correct the opportunities we will never get in real life that is what attracts us towards gambling we always need to understand gambling is just a short term solution and sometimes it might even make you good money but to make more money you always need hardwork and dedication

Other people became that addicted of because they taught that full happiness can be achieve if they play and play as expecting lots of chances will come all the way, but they're wrong. That's right gambling was just for short term bets which could possible give you lucky chances of winning, but I don't see it profitable if we make it long term. Better to work for money like bitcoin jobs and other sources of income like physical jobs, due to sustainable amount it may provide to us.

it's really dreamy when people usually imagine how much money they can make through gambling when you stake $100 double it to $200 , $400 , $800 and so on easily within a couple of minutes , the reality always far different from what people want. they didn't think realistically and prefer to follow their gut to become greedy in the end.

Because, no more fun activities other than gambling. Activities of people who have alot money for wasted. Especially if lullaby will get jackpot, then addicted that happened. Unless, no money is risked then gambling becomes a good fun.

Your not making sense here. There are lots of much fun activity aside from gambling. If you go out play ball, drink in a bar, kiss a girl. Those are better if you would ask me.

Haha some of these activities may not be better for me. For example, go and kiss a girl, i may end up getting sued or STD. Drinking bar can be even more costly.

This is a usual stuff and a usual aim for most gamblers out there who do play games.It cant really be avoided or to be removed on ones mind on believing that they can able to make good money or profits on gambling easily.Yes, it is actually possible but only if you are just lucky enough.What if doesnt? Then expectations would really be broken for sure.

Then can multiple money and gamblers thibk that this is the easiest way to get profits
The lure of making easy money is the reason why most people are drawn towards gambling in the first place but once they are in it they find it very different and though they win they don't find it easy at all.

The desire of making easy money is what keeps people coming back to gambling even when they know that their chances to win are very small. Greed is in the humain nature, and if you don't learn how to control it, you will end up addicted and mostly drowning in debts.

They will learn that making money in gambling is not easy, we are too confident to win but we have not proven it yet through our actions.
I think gambling for money is only for professional gamblers because they have the skills and they can set up a good amount of bankroll. Winning is not instant, they will learn from their mistakes in a long journey before they become consistent.

Yes it is really addicting because we can make money aside the fun the we get and it possibly make us rich in an instant, and the excitement and thrilling emotion that we get in times of winning will trigger our mind to be addicted.

The only thing that exists in a gambling addict is greed. It is the ugly thing that keeps pulling it's player to play numerous times. Their mindset of winning a huge profit is the cause of their total addiction.

Gambling too much is the thing that triggers the greed. So the real key to not being addicted is not to gamble too much. Not gambling too much means you can control yourself well. And good control becomes the next key. Whatever we do must be under our control including gambling.

As long as your mind always thinks about easy and fast money then you can't avoid gambling so you should first come out of that assumption that can make an easy money from gambling. I do agree that if one is lucky then they can become rich from gambling but that doesn't mean that you should spend all your money on these games and play every day. You should only fix some amount to play these games may be weekly once or twice in a month but definitely not every day.

Yes it is really addicting because we can make money aside the fun the we get and it possibly make us rich in an instant, and the excitement and thrilling emotion that we get in times of winning will trigger our mind to be addicted.

We will not be addicted if we keep gambling just for fun, even if we lose we can manage it and only when we become ambitious with our goal to make money with gambling will surely make us addicted with gambling. Addiction is a big problem in gambling and we are suppose to control ourselves so we cannot be victims of addiction that will only make us lose in the end. Gambling is risky therefore our mind should be condition to stick with our game plan and be consistent all the time.

Because gambling is more than fun.. there is a sense of joy in the way of gambling.. although just started but then directly addicted and do not want to stop.
no matter win or lose that is important gambling is exciting. I am so sorry if my english looks so bad.

When you say gambling is more than fun means you will be targetting to make an easy money and when you start gambling for earning easy money then most likely you will be addicted to gambling. If you will want to play to make more money or if you lose money then will continue gambling to get back your money so you will never stop gambling until you lose all your money.
Neither gambling is a fun nor is it a way to earn money.Let’s just get real here. How this is possible that a game in which there are chance of losing money will become a fun and similarly, how can we think of a total random game as a way of making money.

Both make no sense to me. I have seen gamblers who find relief in it but basically they are just taking a break from their hectic life and trying to forget things for a while.

Well i agree with you that gambling can be no fun when you're loosing your money but it can be for profit because it is not entirely based on luck-at least some games aren't luck based like dice and slots. I prefer sports betting where i can use previous statistics and my understanding of the game to make acurate future predictions.

That is right that gambling look like easy to earn money but it is not so. In fact gambling is the most difficult way of making money, We mostly depend on our luck therefore no one can say anything about their luck in advance, There are very less use of experience and skill, therefore it is very hard to make money from bitcoin.

Well then you have to find a way to study your game and win in order to make profit else then quit it  for good because itb is not  for you. Addiction could be anything but gambling addiction makes you loose your money too and so we don't joke with it  so if you think you cannot become a pro gambler or you're having poor results then the best thing will be to quit entirely and do something else because you will continue to loose and start thinking of recovering and that's where you shouldn't find yourself.

That's a deceiving start and I experienced that before when I played a lot of times with dice. And I have my brother behind me while seeing me win every roll, the amount of winning isn't too high but with those small amounts combining it then that gave me a big sum of income for that day. After taking a rest for  day, my conscience is keep on telling me that I'm lucky until the worst part of that history happened.

Same here gambling is very addictive especially if you experience the beginner's luck i don't know why but everytime i receive my salary i want to deposit all of it to gamble
That's a deceiving start and I experienced that before when I played a lot of times with dice. And I have my brother behind me while seeing me win every roll, the amount of winning isn't too high but with those small amounts combining it then that gave me a big sum of income for that day. After taking a rest for  day, my conscience is keep on telling me that I'm lucky until the worst part of that history happened.

yes it's deceiving indeed because it can get people into thinking that they are lucky and they will start accumulating unconscious debts until reality dawns on them. I have been a victim in my early days but i'm fortunate i got out of that folly earlier.
