Take risky action in the hope of a desired result. Actually You know what I am talking about and maybe you heard "Gambling is for losers", here I want to tell you why
1. Even when you win, you lose
Gamblers who win for the first time invariably try again. They're convinced that "luck" will score once more. At first it may, but when Lady Luck disappears, most gamblers feverishly chase their bets, and things go from wrong to really wrong. Rarely does someone win big and walk away, never to return.
Not too long ago nineteen-year-old Gregg Wilson won $30,000 at blackjack over three months. Then he started losing. A few weeks later, having dropped two-thirds of his winnings, he was desperate. In one night he lost the last $10,000 in a red-eyed roulette spree.
2. Gambling is addictive
A major con of gambling is that it is addictive. Beginner gamblers can get hooked on gambling and gamblers who gamble often can become gambling addicts. It has also been found that people who are addicted to gambling often turn to illegal and criminal acts once they leave gambling.
3. aggressive behaviors
Once you lose, it can affect your emotional states to a great extent. Family members and friends have often mentioned aggressive and passive behaviours of gamblers. It is also easy to be tempted to use up more money than you intend to.
4. It may kill you
According to the statistics, 1 out of 6 who lost their money in betting are committing suicide
5. Increases crimes in the society
And alot more ...
