Would you be influenced by your favourite Celebrity who you know gambles and one day happens to post the games he played, would you be influenced to play the same game
Actually I can be influenced in some of his life style but not in gambling. He is a professional in singing, not in gambling, this will make me not play the same game with my favorite celebrity because I know that I might lose. I know of a case that this guy is always forecasting numbers and winning, also predicting matches too,so every morning so many persons will go to him to forecast the day game for them or they play same game. It was working initially that I was also tempted to get numbers and scores him but I said no,that day his prediction was wrong and so many persons lost with him. To my surprise the game turned around to favour me so since then I learnt to always believe in yourself not someone when gambling because our lucks differ.
If you can be influenced by a celebrity, I think it will very easier for them to persuade you to do what they do, that is one of the effects of being influenced, you will want to do what they do in replicating their lifestyles, you want to wear the same brands even if are fake ones just to mimic them, you do them without seeing the bad side of it but in this case, losing bets.
Let me use Elon Musk as another example, Elon has achieved that state of wealth where he gets people to do what he wishes in a matter of minutes, just like 4 days ago, he sold out about $2 million worth of burnt hair perfume with a single tweet, the sells might increase as I am writing this and that is what the power of been influenced can do.
