i started playing scratch off lottery tickets about two years ago an now im addicted. sometimes i spend 100 dollars a day thinking im going to eventually hit that one big ticket. how do you cure this problem . i cant walk past a ticket machine without buying at least one.

let me correct that. i dont spend 100 every day. maybe once a week, thanks

Gambling is only a problem if your losing right? Otherwise it's game time right? Well problem is the system of gaming especially with lotto scratchers or any game is this: The odds are set up so that the given chances you will lose more money than you will win. SO "chances" is the factor here. Reduce or eliminate the "chances" to lose on a permanent basis.
