For a person to have the habit of saving money I have learned that gambling is the contrasting activity to saving money. I know that some people enjoy gambling because of the thrill of winning. I used to bet on horse racing that I would be jubilant when I won. Sometimes I buy special food or dessert like ice cream as a way of announcing that I won money in the horse races.
But there is always the alter ego of winning which is losing. Whenever I would lose a bet it was like a dagger that is hitting my savings account. I have to admit that gambling can make me lose money. With that realization I made a resolve to stop betting and just tried to engage in other endeavors that would be away from gambling. Watching sports programs on tv is now my pastime. I enjoy mixed martial arts fighting. There is no more betting so my savings in the bank are safe and sound.
