If you aske me if I am one of the two option ( gambling for a living, a living for gambling) I would say none of the above.  I never use gambling as the way to earn a living, I have my jobs that can support my family.  And definitley not a living for gambling, i will never put my family on the line just to play gambling.  That act is insanity !.


Note:  For and from are two different preposition that give different meaning when used.

I agree, I just gamble for the fun and nothing more or less, its just that gambling has to be fun and you should not depend on it too!

Yes, we should treat gambling as a source of entertainment, fun and a way to ease our boredom but it is not that bad to hope for some amount to win but of course don't hope to much for it, because you will think that gambling will be a way of living like those people who have experienced to earn good amount in it. That's why most of us don't really gamble for living.
There's no pressure when treating gambling as an entertainment because you will not think of getting back your loses whenever you lose. It's no burden as you believe you are spending not investing to expect something in return. It's on the mentality of a person, and I believe those who believe gambling is for fun will survive.

We can't figure out who are those people who are gambling for a living and those people who are gambling for entertainment purposes. But you are right with that, if we are not going to gambling for a living, there is no pressure at all. And most of the time when we gamble we can just enjoy every time we bet.
to me i only play gambling for making money and most of the time i do not succeeded but still i want to continue because the amount that i lost in gambling is my pocket money and therefore it is no a big chance.
