Except the gambler is already a millionaire before been presented with this offer, he or she possibly might reject it as it is an insult to their person and freedom to do whatever they want, 5 bitcoins is probably nothing for the millionaire gambler since he or she might already own even much more bitcoins than than that, and might also have chains of businesses and investments bringing in profits on daily basis, for such a person, I repeat again that 5 bitcoins is probably nothing.
But for a gambler like myself, I will accept that offer and quit gambler for the rest of my life, its not so very difficult to do after all, so why not?, % bitcoin is a lot of money even though its not up to the amount i long to have, having that to begin with is not a bad start at all, so very much, I will accept this offer and say a good bye to gambling cus there is even no guarantee that I will win such amount of money if i continue to gamble my entire life.
It all returned to whom 5 Bitcoins were sung because with certain conditions the results will be that will be. Song it to someone like you or me clearly that the choice is to leave gambling, but the story will be different if offered to people who have or are accustomed to having a value of more than 5 Bitcoin.
In general it has been posted before but with different idea, previously someone created a thread about stopping gambling but in the correlation with inheritance from rich parent.
Frankly, I do not really like to imagine something that is too far away from the reality.
In this case, will be there someone in this world who will offer us 5btc to stop gambling?
Well if there is someone who offer me 5btc to stop gambling, yes I'll accept it but will I stop gambling completely as the one who give the 5btc wont be able to monitor my life 24/7 in the rest of my life.
You reminded me of the post in question but the point is the same I didn't expect anything more than what in reality wasn't that obvious. Imagining it is not enough if the real offer is certain because there is a dilemma and a desire to reach for something bigger. Humans will never be satisfied with what they have or will have.
