Gambling

Gambling is an enormously lucrative business. All forms of gambling, and there are many, attract millions of people. From fancy casinos, through suspicious underground bookies and innocent lottery tickets gambling feature greatly in our lives. Even insurance is in a way a form of gambling. It is addictive, it might be dangerous. It might also be a good way to relax and spend some money. Why do people consider it to be bad? Because every form of gambling has an element of mischief and lie to it. Every game is a carefully planned con, where people loose money because they get greedy and overconfident. Gambling is often associated with crime, and that is a perfect combination for a good movie. So it is hard to find a movie about casinos without gangsters or a con without murder and danger. But despite gambling’s poor reputation it is as popular as it has always been.
