Gambling is, of course, a very risky activity......
Because of this, gambling is often banned in many countries and regarded as an illegal act......
The vast majority of ordinary people, also subconsciously, are rejecting gambling as a behavior, at least in the cognition of the vast majority of people, gambling is definitely a bad behavior that harms others and themselves!
However, in a sense, the fundamental reason why gambling is banned is not this!
It's because, in this world, the vast majority of gambling is itself unfair!
Because gambling itself is not fair, and gamblers in gambling are easy to make bets beyond the limit of their own ability, at this time, gambling often becomes the root cause of a person's ruin, which is why many countries regard gambling as an illegal behavior......
However, if these factors are excluded, there is nothing particularly bad about gambling behavior......
In many countries, although gambling is prohibited, there will be projects similar to lotteries, which are essentially a kind of gambling......
It's just that compared to other gambling, the biggest feature of the lottery is that it is relatively fair and the risk is very low, and the benefits can be huge......
And this is the fundamental reason why the lottery can become popular!
Gambling on one's own life and other exciting things is not something that everyone dares to do......
However, if it is only at a very small cost, it is possible to gain great benefits with a small amount, then many people will be willing to participate......
In the final analysis, as long as the risk of gambling is reduced to a certain level, then the act of gambling can be popularized and will not be regarded as an illegal behavior......
To put it simply, as long as the gamblers themselves are sensible enough and the casino is fair enough, then any gambling behavior can theoretically be reasonable......
On the contrary, even if it is a relatively small and negligible gambling method such as the lottery, there will still be crazy gamblers who are addicted to it and cannot extricate themselves, and even end up losing their lives......

In the final analysis, as long as the gambling itself is fair enough, as long as the gambler is rational enough, gambling is not sinful in nature......
The sinful thing is often only the hearts of the people who are hidden behind the gambling!
In fact, the more countries where gambling is legalized, the less fraudulent casinos are, because any casino, any kind of gambling, under the condition that the gamblers themselves do not cheat, the casino must make a sure profit!
Even if there are lucky people who can win money in the casino, many more people will always lose their chips in the casino......
In fact, compared to the gamblers are afraid of casino cheating, the casino itself is actually more afraid of gamblers cheating, once the casino cheating is exposed, then the reputation of the entire casino will be wiped out, and conversely, if gamblers can successfully cheat, then the reputation and interests of the casino will also suffer huge losses......
Because of this, the casino itself must worship some gambling masters, and their existence is not to win the money of ordinary gamblers, but to suppress those gamblers who use cheating methods......
On the other hand, in countries where gambling is banned, all kinds of fraud often emerge one after another......
Because gambling itself is illegal, people who have been defrauded cannot seek justice through legal channels, so over time, a black gambling chain has been formed......
This is the so-called truth that blocking is better than sparse......
Of course, to return to the previous topic, any kind of gambling, as long as it is fair enough and can make reasonable profits, then any reasonable person may get involved......
To give a simple example, if all the underdogs and odds in a football match are exactly the same, one to one, then even people who don't care about football betting will choose to put all their savings into it!
After all, in all games, the probability of winning is always much higher than the probability of winning the underdog, in a series of games, there may be occasional upsets, but the upset cannot be the mainstream situation after all, the vast majority of games, must still be able to win the majority, in this case, if the odds of the underdog and the same, then people will definitely choose to put their chips on it!
And this is also a manifestation of human self-interest!
Of course, in such a situation, it is impossible for the bookmaker to make a profit......
Therefore, bookmakers must reduce the odds and increase the odds of the longshot, so that gamblers can make different choices......
However, no matter how the bookmaker controls the odds, people's choices always tend to be self-interested, even if the odds are too low, no one will be willing to take the risk, and even if the odds are unpopular, as long as the odds are high enough, there will be people willing to try!
Just like buying a lottery ticket, the lottery ticket is a typical unpopular among the unpopular, once you win, you will get a huge profit, but even if you don't win, you don't need to take too much risk!
There is always a balance between risk and benefit......

When the benefits are greater than the risks, people will naturally choose the benefits, and when the risks are greater than the benefits, people will naturally avoid the risks!
When the risks and benefits are equal, the risk-takers will take risks, and the conservatives will remain conservative, of course, for the vast majority of ordinary people, there will not be too much hesitation and hesitation when they need to do some kind deeds within their ability......
After all, the vast majority of people in this world are ordinary people who are kind and orderly......
However, if good deeds carry a certain amount of risk in themselves, then the vast majority of people will naturally hesitate before doing good......
It's not about morality, it's just about the influence of social mores......
No matter what kind of person they are, they always seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and there is no doubt about this......
In the same way, for the elderly who have been helped up, choosing blackmail is undoubtedly a high-reward and low-risk interest behavior......
And for those who help the elderly, the act of choosing to lift the elderly is undoubtedly a theoretically high-risk behavior......
Even if the old man wronged the rescuer, the old man was at most educated a few great words, but once the rescuer was judged to be responsible, then there is no doubt that he needs to bear the double blow of economic and spiritual level, and at the same time, there will be many bad evaluations in the society, in a sense, it can be said that the whole life will be greatly affected by this......
This is the most significant asymmetry between risk and benefit......
Saving people is risky and the benefits are small, and the benefits are so small that they are almost negligible, but the risks are big enough to subvert the whole life, and the risks are negligible when they are in the face of such a situation......
In the final analysis, it really has nothing to do with the so-called morality, but only the result of the lack of a simple social atmosphere and legal system......

By the same token, back to the topic of careers......
The biggest feature of civil servants is that the profession itself has great rights and high benefits, but it needs to bear relatively little responsibility, even if it does not do a good job in its own job, it is often not too much blame, and even if it is illegal and undisciplined, as long as the backer behind him is tough enough, it can also turn evil into good, big things into small things, and small things into small things......
In the eyes of many parents, civil servants are the best kind of job, even from the perspective of salary, the salary of this job itself is not high, but stable welfare and social treatment, as well as a relatively relaxed and leisurely working environment, but it is often incomparable to other jobs......
On the other such as doctors or teachers are not actually comparable to the former in terms of social treatment......
Whether it is a doctor or a teacher, many times they will be given a sacred mission, doctors save lives, teachers teach and educate people, and choosing such a profession often means that people will look at these two kinds of people with a higher standard than ordinary people......
In the subconscious mind of the vast majority of people, whether it is a doctor or a teacher, they should have a high moral level, and any behavior and thought that does not reach the high moral level that people imagine is easy to be criticized and condemned, and if one or two scum appear, it is even easy to drag down the reputation of the entire hospital or the entire school......
It can be said that many doctors, whether teachers or teachers, are engaged in a thankless job......
For other people's professionals, completing their own work is already a complete task, but for both, if they can't do it perfectly, they must face blame and even moral blame......
This is also the fundamental reason why teachers and doctors are always facing the embarrassment of a serious shortage of practitioners!
Whether it is training teachers or doctors, it takes a relatively long time, and even after the practice, it may not be smooth sailing, and many times it is inevitable to suffer all kinds of grievances, and may even lead to all kinds of unexpected conflicts......
If you don't really like these two professions, you will almost never choose to engage in these two professions, because these two professions themselves require a certain amount of dedication and sacrifice, and they need a certain moral level and moral cultivation as support!
