The Online Gambling Epidemic Is Real

People always like to say that lootboxes/gacha in games are "just gambling" and they definitely can be manipulative, but it's really not on the same level at all. No amount of digital skins or waifus or whatever is going to pay off your mortgage or buy you a new car. You can't win big and be set for life. That's the real temptation, that's what ruins people's lives. It's insane that so many people view it as normal.

Spend $1000 a month on fanduel but its the boomers fault i cant become a homeowner.

“And that’s the way gamblers do”😂😂😂

Oh, nice Hail the Sun Shirt.

"With cigarettes I save so much money because I don't have to invest in my futur anymore, because I have no futur😄"

There’s a reason why people call the lottery “idiot tax”

the gummibear story gold

They selling battle passes for gambling lol

I downloaded DraftKings through a friend and got $400 off of a 2 pick parlay. I instantly deleted the app after withdrawing the money.

It's the taxation + paying ceo's on people's money. Co+vid helped them take advantage of an opportunity. Let's see when this started, oh yeah with biden. This isn't new info hence why biden played brain dead.

The cough got to me.. cant watch this. Gonna go watch original

I'm up $39k

asmongold is so negative now. Idk when it changed but every time I click on one of his vids i end up regretting it. He's so quick to judge people he perceives as "less smart," which explains his recent inclination towards defending scammers because "people are stupid." Even if he is smarter than most people, it doesn't give him the right to treat others like they deserve what happened to them.

It is incredibly arrogant to assume that people who believe in God have lower IQ. This is ridiculously incorrect. Correlation and causation are two different things. I thought Asmond the fool would be smart enough to understand that but instead he let his bias win on that comment.

I'm not against sports-betting, I'm against push-notifications, and it being plastered everywhere.
Betting $5 on the Celtics winning vs. the Pistons makes the game more enjoyable to watch.
Losing your life-savings by betting all your money on an 11-step parlay is a problem.

that dude just breakes his tv becouse he bet and lost, just a reminder he lost even more money now becouse now he needs to buy a new tv. what a dumbass

U coughing while reacting to cigarettes was the greatest marketing I’ve seen.

Bettin on politic stuff is banned in Austria, because people are afraid that politicians start rigging elections and laws.

Even Big Pharma is a betting operation.

"Take this drug. If you win, it'll cure your symptom. If you lose, you die."

The same people who own gambling interests are the same people who own porn sites.

I chose to bet my money by betting on myself by starting a business. It was a good bet.

Any time I ever see a celebrity appearing in a gambling advertisement, I immediately stop supporting that celebrity.

some of those grannies you said are always there may just be the money washing machines 😅😂

Lmao

Hahahahaha gambling on hara-kiris LOL ;)

just a few cents away from paying for the internet bill, then I can gamba from home, right after I pay to get the energy turned back on.

Missouri passed sports betting in November by 1% lol

Proof North Korea is fuggin dumb. Why yall hacking? Just set up casinos ya dummies

6 But godliness with contentment is great gain.
7 For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out.
8 And having food and raiment let us be therewith content.
9 But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition.
10 For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.
11 But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness.

Gambling a fools’ sport.

always forgetting that when you do win an accumulator (Parley), the online booker wont pay out as you then have to face the gauntlet to prove who you are. they;; never survive that.

Just buy Bitcoin guys.

The only gambling I miss, is online Poker. When I was in college, you could play for real money, I lived off of what I made on that website. I'd play 15 table at once, follow a very simple algorithm, not even look at the cards, and slowly yet surely win money to go out and feed myself. Poker isn't all luck though. Playing slots does not work. I've been to vegas and Bahamas. I had 2k in Vegas to spend on gambling. I won 500 once and that's it. Dumbest shit ever, haven't gambled since and I've been to rehab and aa for alcoholism, yet I don't understand gambling addiction at all. It doesn't make much sense to me

That 60 minute interview makes me think of a statement. "You set me on fire and tell me I'm not in crippling pain."

Moms rule is she'll set aside a few dollars to play it for fun.
If she wins anything, great.
But anything over that limit isnt to be touched.
And pretty much all she does is a powerball when its a high number, and scrach offs for a birthday or christmas.

And it has to be out of the fun money. Touch anything else and youd be in trouble.

I've used the fre wbonus money they give and then bounce. I've won 700 bucks from a 3 legged parlay and it was fun when it's not your money lol.

Marge simpson was right all along

I don’t gamble whatsoever and I don’t watch sports. I’m still familiar with the gambling company logos due to the influx of ads.

Jokes on you I just won $600 today at the casino (I’ve lost $5k in the last 4 months)

I’ve hit many parlays… I’ve put $5 that a QB scores 2 touchdowns in one game (Josh Allen) and win $80. I’ve won betting in golf parlays and home run derby’s…you just can’t go nuts with +5000 odds lol.

Love me some gamblin
