The lure of gambling especially to the pensioners

This is a sad topic of the seniors in the US. My 2 sisters are living in Las Vegas and they tell of pensioners they know who have the habit of going to the casino upon receiving their monthly pension. After several days those pensioners would be roaming around picking up empty soda cans and water bottles to have lunch money. It is pathetic that they lose their pension almost every time.

Gambling can be addictive and there are chronic gamblers who couldn’t last a day without betting their money on a gambling game. Even here I know of the old guys who are betting on horse races. They usually lose. Their reason for betting is to be happy. It is ironic that they are happy while they have the money but certainly they are sad after losing the bet. The best solution against gambling is not to start.

No matter how attractive it is, most pensioners doesn't see their future around it, cos its simply not doing well when it comes to betting up and earning the right dividends which you craved for around betting. When i remember the risks involve in gambling I came to understand that i just needed to spend what i can afford to risk through gambling.

Time management is very important when it's come to an online business or making money online. Sometime its used to be very hard to combined both the side job with online business if one can nor manage time very well.
Sometime one do not meet up with target because of lack of time management.

I'm one person that have never been cool with gambling because I know one lose more than the so-called gains. But I don't know why pensioners enjoy gambling. My uncle was doing same thing we only got to know when the money was almost finishing. Gambling is abad business to indulge in

Betting is attracted to all ages but it is folly of a pensioner to find solace in betting. Gambling is a way of finding short cut to success. I don't think a morally upright pensioner should be involved in what should be frowned at in the society. Punters don't even realize the bad side of betting until they are left with no money.

Gambling can be a very damaging habit....If some people are not wise enough, gambling may wreck them financially. I can't imagine using your pension money to gamble, the money that he's suppose to invest with. There are so many investing platforms out there or many business to invest in, that can bring good return. Why waste such money away lavishly. Addiction is a bad thing!
