Yup: most recently, I sat for 2 hours and watched elderly people gamble away the inheritance money for afternoon entertainment. I do buy a lottery ticket and have an inexpensive fantasy hour…
Why burn your money on movies? Video games? Spectator sports? Gambling is entertainment (not my cup of tea, but then neither are spectator sports). As long as it stays firmly on the “expense” side of your ledger, you are good. As soon as you start to think of gambling as potential income, you are becoming addicted.
A tax on fools..Although, really, some skilled gamblers can make it a tax on other fools by playing the odds.Remember, casinos and Lottery Commissions are gambling too, they just have the odds stacked in their favor.Not that he was real, but Brett Maverick never cheated at cards because the other players weren’t good enough for him to need to cheat.
My Dad taught me how to double my money at a casino. Now read carefully, as you will want to remember the lesson:.First Dad said, “Take all your paper money out of your wallet or pocket.”.Then he said, “Now carefully fold all the paper money in half.”.Finally Dad said, “Put all the folded money back into your wallet or pocket, and leave it there.”.Here endeth the lesson…

Gambling WILL exist. The only question is whether or not it will be legal.
