Anyone else addicted to entering lotteries, gambling and competitions?

I spend like half of my neetbux on gambling in hopes of winning a few million dollars. I wouldn't say I'm addicted though since I have complete control over it.

I probably spent over $7000 on lottery tickets over the past 5 years. It all started when I was attending college after getting fired form my full time wagecuck job I worked at 4 years, and I felt there was no point of making more money if it means I still have to work that much. As I was reading a self-help book about choosing a college major I read a line which made something click finally: "You are going to spend most of your life working, unless you win the lottery." I had never though much of the lottery before, but when the $656m Mega Millions jackpot made headlines not long afterward, lottery was finally on my radar. I started out getting only 1-3 tickets a week but by a year later I became obsessed with winning the lottery, sometimes spending over $30 on a draw.

My dad is a gambling, poker and all kinds of these money games addict. He's been doing this since he was 20, now he's 50 and sleeps in a student room cuz he can't afford anything else. He put all of my family in debt and refuses to face the truth now, trying to blame everything on my mother.

Feel free to fuck your life up

lotteries should really be illegal, I don't get how "moral and ethical" societies allow this age old scam to go on.

I have an extremely addictive personality. I spend the equivalent of $20/day on shit like pick4 or scratchers. This is in addition to my chain smoking, recreational drug use and pretty severe alcohol dependence.
They legalized casinos in my state a couple years ago but no car so I can't fuck off there to gamble.

It's always been the Jews.

Most of the lotteries I participate in are run by charities anyway

Good for you, OP. A gamble is only worthwhile if the risk is high. You need your bennies are all you have to live on. You're gambling with your life. That's how it has to be for people like us. People who never made it like others did. Never studied hard, or applied ourselves. So it's only fair: we have to seize these chances! We have to struggle!
Struggle!
STRUGGLE!
...
And draw ourselves up into the light
A golden realm!
Or
drown in the darkness of gambling Hell!

I wish I was addicted to gambling just so I was less addicted to drugs. At least gambling pays you back a little bit. I mean I do need weed as medicine, but I mostly just look stupid on drugs and they cost a lot.

At least you get neetbux you fuck. I'd kill for just that.

I won $17k from my country's lottery this year. Also bought my ticket with neetbux

I was planning to kill myself later this year once my money ran out, but $17k is approximately a year's living expenses for me so I guess I'll be sticking around an extra year

I'm too depressed to believe in gambling. Any time I played something based on luck I lost.

dude, git gud at poker. lottery has THE shittiest possbile variance when it comes to gambling, ratio of investment to possible results. even worse than slots, for fucks sake.

What's the best online poker service that has real money betting?

no referral links, fag

>>35775508
pokerstars seems to be the biggest, but there are tinfoils who think that the rng is rigged

anyway i highly suggest reading a shitton first, about bankroll management, some basic maths, odds, etc. etc. check some vids on how to play low-stakes cash games and go from there. i hope im not fucking up your life even more via getting you into poker, good luck mate

You won't be fucking me up since I don't get any thrill from gambling, so there's no risk of addiction. I find it boring as fuck, but I'll do it for $ if it means I don't have to leave the house and talk to people irl

>>35775580
forgot to say thanks, btw. I'll do some reading and check out pokerstars with a small amount of money
