Filipino Gambler  | |  Gambling is part of our culture. And we cannot deny it. There is called madjong, tong-its, jueteng, hantak, sabong and many others. Personally, speaking gambling is good when you always won on your bet and it is sad to think when you lose. However, there are many aspect in the Philippines that lies on gambling like the Philippine Lotto. What can you say about this?

| | | | | | | | 1.  everlasting (10032) | 2 years ago |  This is the sad fact. We are encouraged to bet so that we will become rich instead of encouraging us to work real hard to become rich. This mentality is imbedded into our consciousness and we do not work hard and go for the easiest way to get rich. This makes us lazy and just wait for chances to make our life better. It is not really our culture but there are elements that make us embrace this culture. Nobody wins in gambling. You gamble because you want to lose your money.

He had a big house, mercedes, businesses etc., NOW they are all gone because of Sabong!
Gambling is rampant in the Philippines, especially now that it's hard times. It seems that the only hope they have is winning the Lotto and most often than not, it only just give them false hopes!
