Do you Gamble?

I do....kinda.
I have been playing the lottery consistently for about the past year. Spending �5 on the mid-week lottery and �5 again on the weekend one.

Now i've cut down to do it once a week but with Euromillions jackpot Now at �120 million ($230 million US) i'm beggining to spend more and more.

I do like to play blackjack but if i start playing that online it Will Ruin me!!!!

for some reason I have always hated gambling. i doubt that will ever change, I work hard for my money and find the idea of probably losing it for an adrenaline rush unattractive. Real estate is less of a gamble and has a much greater payoff if done correctly, I'll stick with that route.

I have friends that loooove gambling, it's worth losing their money over. I'm not sure if it's a different perspective or just idiocy. I'm opting for different perspective since I don't want to admit my friends are idiots.

Well, there are a few games that have a 45-50% chance of winning if you know how to play them, so with that in mind you could lose money or gain it, it's just up to luck.

i used to like to gamble, and i still will on occasion, but it's broke me too many times to continue playing regularly.

I buy lotto tickets a lot, and we usually pool money together at work when the jackpot is huge! I used to go to the casino A LOT when I was of age and had a car, now I have no car and no money to play with so I don't. I have a friend with a really bad addiction to gambling, and I support him by going with him to the gambling "AA" that's here in Ontario.

why not just work hard and earn a lot of money that way? Then it's guaranteed. Lotto money is akin to the layman playing darts, it's just hopeful; and while that's fun, it certainly doesn't secure your future.

Yes there are examples of lumbermen and gravediggers doing poorly, therefor i suggest a skill set that is somewhat unique / specialized.
