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.

love it

its been paying me off last couple of months

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.

Treat people as if they are what they ought to be and you may help them to become what they are capable of being.

Strip Clubs >>>> Gambling

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.
