Why do people go into gambling?
I asked this question here because I can't get the answer.
However, in my observation, I found out that most people go into gambling because they think that's the easiest way to make big money.
Please is it true?

You just answer your own question to be honest. That might be one of the factors but I think there's a lot of it and it differs from individuals because others might say it's about the money, the others will say it's about the joy they get while gambling, there's no definite answer to it. One more thing, it's not the easiest way to make money, it's likely the opposite and it's to lose money.

Other than money and entertainment, are there any ither reason to do so?

Not really. And I would say that it is mainly the money that attracts people, the entertainment is a side effect, not something you look for when you first decide to gamble. Eventually when you know what it's all about, you can dedicate a small part of your budget to gambling as many of us do, partly for entertainment and partly because you have a chance of making some money that week.

To this I would add that this is what people think, but it's not very easy to hit a big jackpot, and usually by the time people hit it they've already spent more money than they got out of it, if you take into account all the sessions. 99.99% of gamblers lose money in their lifetime if you add up everything they bet and everything they win.

Another thing to add is that they are looking to make a lot of money with little effort, because setting up a successful business or having a very well paid salaried job and building up their wealth through savings and investment requires a much greater effort than gambling on slots or other games.

It's true because most newbies and greedy people are fall to make money through gambling.

But for an experienced gambler, he know if he's high likely will lose in gambling and wouldn't make money through gambling, so the main reason why he's gambling is to kill his boredom and for entertainment. If you're a gambler and want to minimize your lose, it's better if you gamble on sports where you can't constantly keep gambling.

Mostly for entertainment, rarely just for "scoring" a big hit because they "really need it." You would be surprised how many people play it just for the fun factor, but the thing is, we always hear about those edge cases where people are serious gamblers who lost/gain huge amounts of money.

When you think about it who would talk about stories/people who just had fun playing a couple of rounds and depositing like 50€ weekly, whilst having a good financial background? That would be a boring story Cheesy

Other than money and entertainment, are there any ither reason to do so? Well, players who are here for entertainment are few for sure. Most of the people here engaged to gambling simply because of the belief that this is a way to be rich. Well, indeed there are really people who made fortune out of gambling such as with lotteries but unfortunately, it is quite 1:1000000 probability for an individual to be in such situation. More players are losing; let us face the truth. But for players, the slightest chance is enough for them to believe that the one of a million individual could be them.

Money is that powerful but never the root of all evil; it is one's intention. Money could almost give you everything which makes it an enough reason to take risks or to simoly gamble their fate. Who doesn't want to be rich anyway? Also if there is an "easy" way to do so, why not? These ideas are simply pulling people towards this industry. And we just cannot stop it that simple. It takes one's initiative to do so whether to engage or not.

We have two major reasons why people go into gambling or develop interest for it, the first is because of having fun and a means to create a pleasurable moment to whine away time, secondly is to make money, this is very common because many were frustrated to the extent that they only rely on gambling for their sustainability in life, they play bets, sone work for gambling companies and get paid while other provide services such as predictions and odds for games, matches and other gambling event while others work as operators of the gambling casinos, as long as you earn a living or make fun with gambling and get satisfied, then your reason for gambling is being fulfilled.

Because it is fun and pumps a lot of adrenaline into your blood stream, actually.
Haven't you ever gambled with your own money or in a video game (back in the day when it was still possible for small children)?.

It is about the uncertainty or whether you could get your way or not with the chances you are taking.

There is a game called "crash", you should read about it, in my opinion is very entertaining and one of the most exciting games one can find in online gambling, because it offers you the chance to "easily" double your money or even multiply it for thousands times, but it also has the chance to make you lose, of course. only the premise of the game is exciting and not for the faint of heart Wink

, that is one of the main reasons people gamble, OP.
