Gambling is addictive because people see it as a game and they think they can make money with it.
What they do not know is that they lose more money than they bring in money. But they realize until later, and then it is really too late.

I think it mostly depends on the person, anything can be addictive really even meaningless things can get a person addicted, food/desserts or drinks/soda many people are addicted to that on a daily basis. Gambling however does have an advantage over getting addicted to coca cola, for example coca cola doesn't give you any benefit meanwhile gambling can actually give you some profit/income.

Gambling is so addictive because people like it despite the money.

They are having fun and they find that the most important thing. And the bonus is that they make money.


Yeah, but you cannot make money everytime, as it is not guaranteed that you will win everytime, totally depends on your luck, and also depends on which game you are gambling, and if you win at the initial stage, you will have a feeling that you can win more and then it becomes addiction.

I think that gambling is addictive because people there to have fun playing it.
Later they will regret that they have spent too much money.

And then they quit. It just goes to the game and little about the money.

u take it too lightly. it's not that simple, at that rate can't be consider addict yet. it's more complicated and that's why ppl question it.
yeah addicting more than want to just have fun,
perhaps even they do not want to have fun, they only think about profit in gambling

Yes, the basic problem lies in people's thoughts. They only want to gamble because they feel they will win a lot of money with gambling. I am sure not but if a poll is done here, around 1% of people would be gambling for fun, rest 99% for money !

I think gambling is so addicted because of  money as people sometimes got lucky and earn money without any work.So our mind thinks its the easy way to earn money.But sometimes when our luck goes down we keep losing.Then we fall in to a hard situation where we need to recover our losses and keep gambling more.And when we keep winning our mind got greedy and we keep play.That's what i think the main reason for gambling also the fun.

In short we got addicted with gambling because of money and fun.

Yes, getting fake belief on gambling is the main cause of gambling addictions.
When your lucks favor you, you may win in gambling. But, relaying on consistent favor of luck results in sticking with gambling which end up with gambling addictions.

People see gambling as a game. They have fun in it and it's fun and you also come into contact with other people.
The perk is playing with money. They think you can win money, but that is not always so.

That is why they also want to gamble. Thinking you can double it more and more. You want to play more to see that money growing. But someone who can control that madness is the real genius for me. It is hard to stop it when you are winning if you can then you are really a winner.

I think gambling is so addicted, because people play games and they like it.
When they play so that they can earn a little extra money. Everyone finds it fun to play with money. So why I think.

I think people who gamble not because the game is good, but because it wants to make a profit

I think its the two things together that gambling makes so addicting.
Some people can't stop because the see dollars in their eyes.
The downside is most people lose but they still gamble to win.

Gambling is so addicting because you can win money with it and its also fast money so you can win it fast. The downside its mostly the opposite with people are getting blind because they see the price and they wanna win something that will in the most cases not gonna happen.

That is why gambling is very lethal in a person with that kind of thinking, they would always think that gambling will earn them faster income and they do not see the risk involve with it well those type of person will always tend to be addictive to it

The best part of gambling is the risk itself, if you are not risking big amounts of money, it will never be as pleasant. Thats why if you try to play with fake credits it just doesn't cut it, you need to be exposed to risk to get that natural adrenaline high and this is exactly what can make some people severely addicted to it.

Yup the risk taking game mostly are the one that are addictive and getting much money to it will get you more excited in taking it back that adrenaline feeling will almost consume you and you don't really notice it yet but you are in the influence of addiction throught gambling

Gambling Involve instant money that is why many are getting hook into it and that is a fact even if they don't have much money they keep on gambling because of the urge in getting something and probably just enjoying their self for just satisfaction!

True. I got hooked at this one time where I cant really stop it. I just want to get back what I lose then I didnt even realized I am losing more than what I want to get back. Darn gambling really is unstoppable once your in it.
