To be sincere, it is pretty difficult for every gambler to see gambling as a way of enjoying time at all times, most especially, when the gambler have to go through several streak of losses in the process, like I always ask, is there anybody in this world that enjoys loosing money in the name of having fun or enjoying time? I think non.,
Hikers enjoy losing money while hiking, people who enjoy rides are also happy spending their money on those rides. People who love to travel enjoy losing money for travel. Likewise, those who enjoy gambling are happy losing money while gambling. I may not be happy losing money in gambling but I don't represent all the gamblers. So it is not right for me to generalize that all gamblers are not happy playing gambling games when they lose money.
You sure completely misunderstood what I meant, I personally love traveling, and when I spend money to travel, I do not consider such money as lost, since I prepared for it.
I love food, and when I spend money to eat good food, are you telling me that money I spent to eat good food is also a lost? Of course not,
I will give you an example, I need a bottle of drink, and that bottle requires I spend some money to have it, I spend the money, and then in return, I have the bottle of drink I needed, is this a loss?
No!, because i spent the money and got what I wanted, it can only be a loss if I spend the money, and end up not having the drink I wanted.
Gamblers spend money, in hopes of getting a bigger money in return, if that bigger money does not come, it is counted as a loss - simple.
I think it is modest atleast, to sometime, see gambling as a way of earning some extra income, though not the type that is without risk, what I always advice against is taking gambling as a business, or a way to make passive income, it is a big mistake to have such mindset towards gambling, and people who are not already rich, and have this type of mindset mostly end up living a rekted life, a life without meaning or purpose.
So are you saying the owner of a gambling platofrm made a big mistake establishing a gambling platform? Gambling is part of the gaming industry thus gambling is business itself. I do not find it wrong for people to see gambling as a business or plan to earn a passive income from it? It is never wrong to acquire extra funds through affiliate marketing where an affiliate earn money from the wagering of their referred users.
Another big misunderstanding, gambling is a business for the casino, sure, but gambling should never be seen as a business by gamblers, I have a friend who quit his job, and made gambling his only source of income - right now, he's rooming the streets here with no sense of direction, desperately searching for another job..
Casinos offer gambling services as a business, that's how it should be, but gamblers, depending on gambling as the main and only source of livelihood, is a big mistake, to me, whether you agree or not does not matter.
