When it comes to gambling, I believe that a lot has to do with how you approach it and most importantly how you think about it as source of income. While there are times when people have been successful relying on gambling as their only way of making money can be quite risky. A case study in point is the AFC Championship Game between Tennessee Titans and Kansas City Chiefs
https://fanspeak.com/nfl/2020/01/16/afc-championship-game-tennessee-titans-vs-kansas-city-chiefs/. The titanic game had the chiefs as favorites but until the very end, nobody knew who was going to win. Such unpredictability echoes what happens in casinos as they are places where good luck is bound to contribute immensely. There is no assurance of winning even after doing thorough research and analysis. Consequently, while there may be a temptation to see betting as an easy way out of financial woes, one must be realistic about the risks involved.
