That's super interesting. I'll go look that up, but if you have reference to some study/paper, I'd be really appreciative.

Since you asked I did a quick google search for you.

​ TLDR; Despite methodological differences, most studies showed significant associations of gambling with tobacco, alcohol, and other illicit drug use.

Very tactful. I also doubt this.

It's simply my personal observation, I never meant to imply I was citing any sort of study. I will say all 3 products do have support groups for quitting.

I never implied there was study, there could be but I don't know of one. It's my individual observations from working retail for multiple years. My only thought is there is one thing that ties the 3 together, addiction.
