The True Cost of Gambling
Money lost to gambling isn't just a number - it represents real opportunities, experiences, and security that could have improved your life. This visualization tool helps reframe abstract losses into tangible alternatives.
Why This Perspective Matters
Research shows that gamblers often mentally segregate gambling money from 'real' money, treating it as entertainment expense even when losses far exceed what they'd spend on any other form of entertainment. By converting losses into specific items and experiences, we break this mental accounting and face the true opportunity cost of gambling.
