Gambling Affects your life either in a good or bad way in the long run. Some of those effects that can change your life are:
Good Effects:
*Can make money easily (not guaranteed)
*Gives so much pleasure
*Meeting new friends
*Can increase your assets
Bad Effects:
*Big loss
*Increased on your debt
*Loss jobs
*Depression/Stressed
*Broken Family/Failed on relationship
*Insufficient Funds
Despite of this effects many people are still want to continue gambling, how can you handle this possible effects of gambling in your life?
Indeed this is a good list and describes gambling in total. But the one good eliminates a bad one. For example, if you suffer a big loss you cannot increase your assets or make money easily.
I would say that the worst thing that gambling can do to anyone is depression and stress. And when this happens then all the close relatives are affected and lives are ruined.
