There are those that gamble for fun, and those that think they can earn a living from gambling. These are starters, it starts with the above notions. But as they grave for more fun, for more earnings, it begins to get to them. Obsession creeps in and soon enough it becomes something they cannot do without in a day, like a medicine they need or the food they eat. They become addicted, they lose it all and still won't stop. A gambling habit is better stopped when it is still young but an old habit is hard to kill. I tell myself often that every gambling business are open to make profit out of me, so i do not bother venturing into it. Gambling, if not careful with it can ruin a person's life.
