What the psychologist said in Op is very correct. Gambling to some people is a kind of entertainment and it is this entertainment that leads to addiction in gamblers. If gambling is strictly for financial gain, the gamblers who loses everything would have done some appraisals at some point and understood that they are lossing and not gaining and then stop. But because of the entertainment and addiction part of it, they would never appriase, even if they do, they can't quit.

A huge number of people do not have financial literacy so they are irresponsible with their money. They just don't understand that money is not just for spending - money can work for you and bring you profit. When a person understands this, he takes his money more seriously and invests most of it to increase his capital.

Or if we are to be straightforward in this regard, I would say that if you don't have the capacity to manage your finances you better not be involved in gambling. In gambling, your poor money management might translate into losing everything. Or if you don't have this money management skills but you still want to gamble, then avoid online casinos. Stick to land-based casinos and don't bring cards. Bring only the little amount you are willing to lose. But again I recommend more on avoiding gambling.
Money management skills are often disregarded and not taken seriously by people but in fact the ability to manage your money responsibly is probably one of the most important skills that you can have, and it is not really difficult to understand why this is the case, we know that money is power and if you are not using your money responsibly then you are wasting your power, and instead if you use it in a way that maximizes its potential then the benefits that you can obtain out of your money are going to be many times higher than what other people can obtain from the same amount of money.

That is good - if the gambler keep their money separate but a person like me who is very bad in money management might loose all the saving in one go.
Money matter and things don't go as they plan too - So I am not sure if people keep a cushion of that leak as well.
If you feel you can't manage your finances yet, you should start learning from now on, especially if the money is going to be used for gambling. This is to avoid using most of the money you have improperly, which can lead to disruption of money management for other things. And if you have started to be able to manage your money, you will not find it difficult to manage the money you want to use for gambling.

This is a good advice. If you know it to yourself that you are not good in handling your finances, then it's much better to rethink about entering and playing gambling. Gambling requires self-discipline and restraint and if someone doesn't possess those, the results could very much equate to chaos because of losses. Financial and risk management is essential in gambling. If you don't know how to properly allocate your funds and if you don't know when to continue or stop playing, then most probably you'll end up losing and go bankrupt.

Someone must first master discipline before diving into gambling since gambling addiction is no joke.

Apart from online gambling, I can partially agree that people gamble to buy entertainment. Sometimes that gambling environment can motivate one to keep gambling. The music, lightening, women, and the general environment sometimes is very entertaining that you just want to come back again. Staying in such setting can trigger the production of much adrenaline that gives the gambler that high feelings. Online gambling might not have such effect like the offline casinos. There are people that are addicted to the gambling environment and not necessarily the gambling act or games.

Money I think is one of the biggest motivators during our century that we are living in.People you will find do all sort of nasty sh*t for money or women as these two are the biggest "things" that make the world goes around as they say.The ego of different persons to have more money or more women has brought destruction to families and even to countries some times like the Russian war which is for the ego of one crazy man.The same for gambling,most say that they start for entertainment purposes only but you will see soon that they become hooked and even worse sometimes addicted.
Likewise many people start smoking in fun - but then they can't leave it.
Same is the case with gambling and alcohal - many people start it as a fun and pass time activity and they are hooked to it like crazy.

GiftedMAN wasn't wrong either but wasn't supposed to be generalized as he put it, in some situation some gamblers are always known to disguised under that umbrella so that people don't view them as gambler especially when they see them as a responsible and public model, you know that some society view gambling as a wayward thing to indulge in, they always find a way to hide under this circumstances.
People are different and our financial status have different tastes, there are some gamblers that truly play to have fun and have a nice time, doing it in the first place is not because of money but when it goes as predicted, that doesn't mean they wouldn't take the money, after all, we all do like money.
People are gambling because they want money - money is itself a big risky thing.
It turns people crazy - and it is the most loved and most wild thing in the world.

Not Your Keys, Not Your Bitcoin
I see people who talk about gambling for entertainment as liars, most of them don't want people to see them as gamblers that's why they always use the word entertainment to cover up their gambling activities. Most people who say they gamble for fun and entertainment will use huge funds to gamble and they will never leave the gambling environment yet they are been entertained with their own hard-earned money that is a big lie.
Liars? Don't expect every gambler to think as you, dude. Not every gambler really has a goal to earn money, some gamblers can focus on getting entertainment and earning money is just a bonus. If you only focus on earning money from gambling, you will get stressed or frustrated. It is very difficult to win in gambling since the chance is rather small. So, don't blame people who want to get entertainment from gambling. Every person who joins gambling may have a different purpose/goal.

MAaaN...!! CUT THAT STUPID SHIT
~snip~ it keeps them steadfast even though the resulting outcome is not pleasing to them. Maybe when the time comes they realized it was really mistaken, they will not hesitate to stop and move to another hobby.

this is very important, as long as they enjoy it of course it will not be a problem for him, even though many losses are generated after gambling. But most people who play gambling just for fun, they have a lot of problems in the real world and switch them to gambling, economically they can afford and make a lot of money from places other than gambling. Gambling is the right place of entertainment for some people.

This is true, although the average gambler has the goal of making money from gambling, there are also many gamblers out there who gamble only for their entertainment. btw, I once met a poker expert, I saw him every day playing poker, he said playing poker was only to hone his skills and also it was his pleasure not to win the money on the table. His answer made me quite surprised.

In this world, you always find those kinds of people who have some rare motives why they're doing the things they really like to do. some have motivations that you don't seem to hear from someone else. seems like whatever reasons they have, as long as they're enjoying what they're doing, it keeps them steadfast even though the resulting outcome is not pleasing to them. Maybe when the time comes they realized it was really mistaken, they will not hesitate to stop and move to another hobby.

Well, we have to take the reality that many do gamble not for entertainment but for the actual reward that everyone has a chance to make, the money.
Yes we know that gambling can gives us the chances of making huge money but But it also has the opposite side that can make you destitute at once. And that's why I said it should use as the purpose of the entertainment.
Yes, people get two types of benefits for gambling. One is the possibility of earning money and the other is to enjoy the game. Both of the two things come together by gambling for this reason gamblers attractions is much higher. There are many gamblers who gamble for entertainment but also with a desire to make money behind it, and there are many gamblers who gamble just to enjoy the game thoroughly. But those who have become addicted to gambling, they try again and again to get something from here.

Campaign Management?"Hhampuz" is the Man
So far what I have observed from gambling places is that no one puts their money in a gambling place for a long time, all profit results will usually always immediately make a withdrawal to secure the profits that have been obtained,

What I think is the other way. Gamblers are saving those funds at the gambling site to save fees from deposits. Transaction fees are hurtful nowadays that's why it was a good thing to do compared to always withdrawing the funds.

As long as the site is reputable, there should be no worries.

There are wise gamblers who take the earnings right away instead of letting the money inside the house and be tempted to playback and lose

it again, while it's also possible that experienced gambler who can control their gambling activities are just storing the money to save for the

fees, some have target amount of winning before withdrawing, aside from the entertainment they are also getting a decent amount of money

from the game that they have some advantage.

Indeed, when coming to gambling, many have inflated expectations when making a deposit and starting the game you expect to win, so yes, in case of failure there will be disappointment and depression, just to have fun you can play in small amounts, even better when it's free welcome casino tokens.

I stand with Ukraine.
I can agree with you here. Because there are some occasional players who just wanted to have fun.
Just like those people who are visiting casinos for experience, they don't want to earn but more on gaining some experience or memories.
But of course, if they will win. That's a bonus already for them. But I can understand, if they are regular gamblers,
most of them are really for the possible winnings that they can get. However, hard to chase winnings in gambling.

If they win, those occasional gamblers will be turned into regular gamblers.


No, they won't, if by "regular gamblers" you mean gambling addicts. Most of them, anyway. Gambling would be forbidden everywhere if it were so harmful. Check out the stats to see that what you are saying is not true. Only 5% of gamblers, max, have some gambling issues. Do you think those 95% who don't, never win?

You already said it, there are occasional gamblers that is just wanted to have fun, and the moment they won big, that's already a big fun and they will surely want to experience that feeling many times. Because of that, they will keep on visiting the casinos. ~

So what? If you enjoy something, you want to try it again and then again. There's nothing wrong with that, with the want. We just have to remember that doing all the time what we want turns us into pigs. Just stay human, that's all.

People who often gamble always have or keep their money in their account so that they can immediately use the money to play if they want to play. What @agustina2 said is true because they don't need to deposit any more money into their account so it will save time and transaction fees again.

That's why if we don't want to get into trouble keeping money in our account, we have to be smart about choosing the casino site so that nothing bad happens later. And if they get a win while playing gambling, they will withdraw the winning money immediately or maybe they will use it again to play gambling.
That is good - if the gambler keep their money separate but a person like me who is very bad in money management might loose all the saving in one go.
Money matter and things don't go as they plan too - So I am not sure if people keep a cushion of that leak as well.
