Online gambling has increased addiction very rapidly. It's easier then ever to jump out of bed, go on yourlatop and place a few bets. I have a few friends that are heavy gambling addicts and they all ended up in debt and had their lives ruined. I'm not completely against gambling but lets not forget how dark it can be.
It is sad that people are getting hooked up to gambling so much that they want to just make money from gambling and forgetting how much addicted they can get and spoil their life if they do not get control of them self. Discipline is what is required if they have it will have a good life.
It is really sad that a lot of people are getting addicted to gambling since not all of the gamblers will get a win in their every gambling games.
Investing and gambling have the same risk but thay doesn't mean that you will be taking on gambling since yes, you may look at gambling and risk your money but you are just riding your luck while on investing, you are not only riding your luck but also your skill, knowledge and experience.
