It is imperative to note that gambling cannot be deemed as one of the most reliable ways of making money. If they continue to pressure themselves into playing for a longer period of time, they are bound to be defeated most of the time. For this reason, the majority of gamblers cannot use it as a mean of making money on a regular basis. Nevertheless, the mere fact is that while some hits the jackpot big time, many more hit the loser’s bench. However, there are also those who consider gambling as a kind of entertainment, not only an attempt to get an extra profit performing a game. In such instances, they do not complicate the whole scenario about winning or losing, but they play and have fun. But as for the finances made through gambling, it is hard to mention that there are positive gains that can be derived from gambling in the future.
I will have to agree with you on this opinion of yours, Gambling can never be seen as a means of making a profit because players can never be guaranteed of any gambling victory because the game odds are always in the favour of the house so the possibility of always winning a game is minuit compared to the house winning it always. It is better seen as an entertainment venture than to be taken as a profit-making venture because victory is not an assurance while gambling but rather to be seen as a thing of fun to do.
If as a gambler, one plays and records series of losses sequentially, one would definitely want to chase their losses and this would trigger a kind of an aggressive chase to recover some losses which in so doing would lead to addiction and when this happens, will you still see it as a profitable venture to go into? Rather, the gambler would be taken to rehab to see how he could be revived from his gambling addiction, and we all know what is involved in this, and we can not say her that it is profit in any way.
