What exactly is it I’m not off to a great start to? While I acknowledge my privilege to have access to education, and therefore never had to deal with desperation, I’ve never experienced dopamine from gambling. If you want to call that outsmarting the strategy, so be it. Point being that it’s an insidious system that claims to use the revenue to help the very people it targets.

Your brain has never released dopamine when you win money? Sounds.. wrong, maybe because you don’t have desperation for it? You’re just proving his point

I don’t gamble, it’s dumb. I invest. I also echoed the point that I’m fortunate to not be desperate. What is it you’re aiming to add to the conversation here?
