True, it will be become wrong if your family became affected in your addiction in gambling. But once you know how to manage money and your self and you know how to control your greediness. I think there will be no problem at all.
How would you control yourself if you start losing all your money,addiction is a real problem,you will be addicted automatically,you will win in the beggining and those small winnings will tempt you to wage more and then you will a lose big amount and after that you will try to recover the loss and that is when gambling turns from entertainment to a problem.
Not all people get addicted, many people understand that gambling is entertainment and not a method to earn money, so they don't chase profit and don't wager more than they can afford to lose.
Yes, you are correct there mate. There are just quite a few out there that really hooked to and get very addicted to gambling - I said "very" because they play beyond normal people. That is not really good because these people really mess up life and they just missed many good things in life because they spend most of their time, money, and effort to gambling.
As much as we pity them, they do not care what the hell we think, and addicted gamblers does not listen advise from other people and I am not even sure if they will listen to their friends and relatives.
I mean, it could be a disease they are in and that would only be solve the moment they lose everything, and I just hope they won't lose the most precious people in their lives like (family).
