Really interesting video. 

When I used to go to GA one of the first things I was told by an experienced member was that most gamblers have their dreams of decent holidays, paying the mortgage off, fast cars etc. The thing is you can get them things without gambling and you appreciate them more. Its strange as most people at the meetings (including myself) would not go and buy something they wanted for say £50, but would happily spend 100s or more on FOBT's. Gamblers mentality i suppose.

I heard Rolla mention this before. He said he would piss and moan about paying an extra 50p in Asda but wouldn't blink an eye spinning 3k on roulette. People without gambling addiction can never understand that it has nothing to do with money, money is simply the tool we need to feed our addiction.

Funnily enough mate its one of the main reasons I love amazon. If theres something I want to buy, I will get it off amazon (or ebay etc). Saves me going out of the house with a wad of cash which is never good lol.

But generally those additional 50p expenses have no financial upside. That 'premium' packet of sausages will almost certainly never turn into a 28000x monster sausage once you pop it in the frying pan. I say almost never....it did happen to a streamer once ?

And that's the entirely logical thing about gambling. There is the potential of a financial upside with every single transaction.

I defiantly get affected this way, very stingy when it comes to buying stuff but not when it comes to putting it on a bet

Yep I agree and I was like that many years ago, I'm glad I'm out of it now and when I look around at things I own none of them would be here if I still gambled.

I like the sound of a 2800x Sausage Roll though @PieGamble

Good to see Andy is gamble free though he has been on youtube a while
