gamble to the hilt on
the casino's money
sometimes they give it
all back. On those times when I am lucky enough to have a player hit
it big near the end of the month, although it wipes out my current
month's earnings, it usually means the following month will be a big
pay-off.
Suppose Joe Gambler
wins $50k on the 28th of the month. By the 10th or so of the
following month, Joe will on the norm have given back about half
that, so from this one gambler I would make over $6,000. And
like I said, sometimes they give it all back in which case I'm
looking at twice that number.
So you can see why I
get excited when someone hits it big just as much as they do. My
experience tells me that most people will gamble to the hilt on the
casino's money, but when they lose a set amount they quit. Now why
is that? Simply because they planned on losing that amount
eventually. It was just a matter of how long they got to entertain
themselves before they lost the amount they'd already pre-determined
to lose. And in my opinion that is healthy.
Gambling is, or should
be viewed as entertainment. And for most people it is exactly that,
entertainment. If you want to get to the truth of it all, the truth
is, that you and I spend most of our gambling time .... wasting
time. We sit in front of whatever our preferred game may be and if
viewed over an extended period of time, we whittle away our money
little by little. Sometimes we lose, sometimes we win, but the grind
wins in the end.
