How do people enjoy gambling so much?

They had the company party at a casino and gave us spending money.

Lost it all but while playing the machines, I was astounded by the amount of money being spent and how quickly it left!

I don't see how gamble maniacs do it! It gave me anxiety losing and it wasn't even my money. Lol

Not to mention my throat started to get irritated by all the cigarette smoke. I had fun but I couldn't gamble every week like some do. It's crazy to me

I saw a documentary about slot machines. They're meant to have a return of 90% of what people put in. That's what the first slot machines did but now I think some machines have a return of only 15%. It's illegal but nobody is going to enforce that law because of how rich and influential casinos are.

@millennialgrandpa wow. Well but if they had a 90% return, then casinos would be losing money Right?!

@Still4him no. It means casinos pay out 90 cents for every dollar put in. Slots are what allow billion dollar casinos to be built.
