OP you are right every gambler should look at gambling platforms as entertainment. People who do not see this gambling platform as entertainment get addicted to this gambling platform very quickly. We who are associated with this gambling platform do not consider this gambling platform as entertainment and therefore use it as a means of earning. I can definitely say that every gambler first takes it as entertainment but later chooses it as a means of earning. However if every gambler accepts gambling platform as entertainment then they can continue their life pretty smoothly otherwise they can destroy their life at any moment from this gambling platform.
This is a good point. I think that this should be a common knowledge for everyone that gambling, and casino are built as a means for entertainment and fun. But sometimes, we cannot avoid perceiving activity as a form of generating money because we literally can earn money from it. However, it is undeniable that almost the whole population of gamblers are leaning towards gambling for them to earn money because they cannot think of other ways on how they were be able to sustain their lives and their family. We cannot tell these people otherwise, because do not their reasons behind it and we cannot judge them easily.
Exactly, the statement that gambling is / is just an activity for fun or looking for fun to fill spare time during work holidays or reduce boredom on your day off should be common knowledge for all gamblers, especially for those beginners who have just come to this gambling. This knowledge will really be very useful for their own safety too, because none other than gambling is very dangerous because there is a huge risk there, so anyone who thinks that gambling is a place to make a living by not applying the self-control that is intended then obviously they will suffer a downturn that I think is unimaginable. I'm not sure if this is a good idea or not, but I'm sure it's a good idea to keep in mind that there will be people who bring the wrong mindset to gambling, as we discussed above, they come with the intention of making money by taking advantage of the opportunities of gambling itself. We can't avoid it because in reality gambling can really give us money, but the difference is that there is no consistency and there is no guarantee in it, and the victory will be random depending on the luck of each person.
Because from what I have observed, rich people perceive gambling as a form of entertainment, while poor people saw gambling as an opportunity to earn money. So, we can say that there are a lot of factors that might contribute on this kind of mindset and social factors is one of them. Because for me, if people only have their choice, they will not look at gambling as a means of making money just as the rich people.
Of course, the rich only consider this as entertainment, and behind that it is not uncommon for poor people who come to make money because they misinterpret what the real opportunities are in gambling. I'm not going to fully blame the poor here because of course it's true as you said, there are many factors that influence why they carry such a wrong mindset. It is none other than because they are poor people who definitely want to get money in the minimum way possible to increase their finances or even to fulfill their needs. This is a very dangerous mindset. I hope they (poor people) will soon realize, because of course it is very dangerous if they enter the addiction phase.
