What makes gambling special?

It is a known fact that many people are addicted to gambling. Whether they play it for fun or entertainment or to make serious money, we cannot deny the fact that this game is very addictive to play since it brings so much fun plus the idea of getting money in a quicker way.

But what really makes gambling special? Is it because many known people play this game? Does this game dictate a person's social status in our society? Or it is because of peer pressure?

People have their own reasons why they are so into gambling. Some people view gambling as their primary means of getting money and their only source of income.

There have been a lot of stories about people who were already a president of known companies and are earning more than the average person and have left their jobs in exchange to gamble. Many state it is because according to them, it is easier to play gambling and at the same time they earn more in this game.

Another reason why people are so addicted to gambling is because it has brought them a lot of fun. Some started to play the game as just a part of their usual past time and simply for entertainment.

Many ended up so addicted to gambling for the simple reason that they would like to get even with those people who are better players than them.

We cannot deny the fact that gambling is already a part of our society and it is here to stay. According to some, gambling is special to them because it allows them to be themselves. They can act and make decisions for themselves without consulting their boss and other peers. They own their time and it requires nothing but money or property.

Many of the gamblers nowadays overly abuse their freedom. Some players inside some casino houses are so much into gambling that they allowe themselves to be swallowed by the system. Some do this because they want to regain the money that they lost or to get more money from the other players.

Gambling might be special to some people because it gave them a lot of money, they have become better known, they have gained a lot of friends, or it dictated their status in our society by having power and influence.

We need to keep in mind that whatever it has done to our lives, whether it is positive or negative we are all responsible for all of our actions. Let us not just aim for material possession because at the end of the day, it is still our inner self that matters.
