Invest? Because when you invest, you also either win or lose. What is the difference? I hope you are just kidding.
I'm not trying to diss at your opinion, but investing in Ponzi is worst than gambling in the casino, IMHO.

Although I understand what you're trying to say, you're jumping to conclusions by stating that they're planning on investing in a ponzi scheme. They hadn't even revealed the nature of where they were going to invest their money in, so there's no evident reason to talk about ponzis. I know that investments are gambling as well, but investments are looked as safer options, and I personally believe that to be reflective. Don't invest in ponzis, obviously, but one could invest in stocks or perhaps even bitcoins?

Get a girlfriend who will kick your ass if you gamble

Yesss. best idea get a girlfriend and u won't have money to gamble anyways

Not a bad Idea. But what if someone's girl friend is also addicted of gamble and she will get her boyfriends involved in gambling every time. I heard about some girls who are also interested in gambling and doing such things..

You can avoid gambling if you get indulge in other activities. You can do some fun activities and such things which keep you away from ambling. I think if you have determination then surely someday you will be able to get away with this addictions!

Stop staying alone in home and spend time with ur friends and parents don't watch games bcz once you started games again u feel like to do Gamble.

Actually i agree with you, because staying at home is really boring and it's make you want gambling for killing your time. playing games is the solution for that imo.

giving up an addiction depends on the level of the addiction. for some people they can just stop it if it is in its early stages and not so serious , for others doing some activity like going out and doing a hobby will help and for the serious problems they should seek professional help or some sort of counseling

but gambling is not just any adiction i read a article about gambling, they had done some research on the brain with people with gambling addiction compare to drug addicts, to make a long story short getting ride of a gambling problem was x5 times harder then quiting heroin lol. so gambling addiction is very serious. gambling can change your life if ur lucky compare to drugs that just ruin it. if ur lucky with gambling you can win big , and thats what i think make it even harder to quit.

I usually stay away from gambling by mining and keeping other online projects going so that I don't think anything much of gambling. I spend anything on gambling as rarely

as possible. If I start to lose, I cash out and say screw it all. I sometimes invest a little and if I see some loss, out it comes.

Actually betting small and that also to relieve stress is not a bad idea at all. You should always do that, because then you cant call yourself addicted to gambling and once simple method that works to stay away for those who are addicted is - start spending time with friens and family.

You are wrong, with this small betting you are slowly become addicted to it and after that you will become addicted and bet more and more because people never want to lose, if they lose they will just keep on trying it but in the end they will lose it. So if you are can't afford what you are gonna lose better stop playing because gambling is really addicted

Well, when facing addiction, you need to lessen the amount of the activity that you're doing until you decrease it to a minimal point where you can finally quit. Hopefully spending time with other people distracts you as well

I think indeed that the best option is to find some distraction. You must do things that you like to do and it will be much cheaper than gambling.
Or you just can find something else that you like to do with your friends, everything is cheaper and better than gambling.

well everyone likes compter games, maybe you like them too, so buy a game or two and play it, or if you don't like them, read a book, or go to gym, other hobby will help you

Well if you are younger yo can try to go with computer games. But adults will most likely go for something else.
Maybe reading books or going into sports

that's right..there should be a diversion, a hobby is a good diversion.you could use your energy and focus in it, but I think, cleaning the whole house if you have nothing to do is a very good way...

Well giving up an addiction is hard, but remember first people have to accept that they have a problem.
Then they need to get either help or be hard for them self. Stop it 100% by being disciplined.

Or even better find some opposite thing to fight against their addiction.
Reverse psychology is very effective.

Gambling if you may is basically a presenting problem of a much bigger problem you got. Once you were able to deal with it, gambling will be much easier to take on.

Addiction is a self-defense mechanism (remember this into my General Psychology class in college.) to escape a problem either financially, socially etc., the more you do it is, the bigger the problem is. And a life-coach isn't enough to get you over from addiction since you are now mentally ill.
