I don’t decide how much I can spend.
It's just a game.
I have a hard time stopping when I feel I'm on a streak.
When I'm in the zone, the game is what matters.
I should keep track of the money I have spent when I play.
While I don't want to go over budget, I don't always pay attention.

I should know how much I can afford to lose before I play.
It's okay to get a little off track, as long as I don't lose too much.
I could spend more than I plan to lose. I will probably win to offset some of my losses.
I should only play after I have paid all of my bills first.
Yes — I set aside money to play and I don't play with money meant for bills.
I use money set aside for groceries now and then, but I can always pay my bills.

I think I could make some extra money if I played regularly.

What do you say when your friend tells you their sure-fire way to win?
Me too! I play birthday numbers on Draw games, and I play the same Scratch-off every Friday. I know I will win soon.
That's intriguing. I've tried a few approaches, but they don't seem to make a difference.
Having a favorite set of numbers or a routine of playing is fun, but you can't control the outcome.
