Huh. Gambling only becomes a threat to people who doesn't know the word 'control.' For the most part, gbling is usually harmless and brings a lot of fun and brings a lot of money to the table and jobs for people. The addicted ones made themselves a slave to gambling and to money, that's why they can't seem to get out of it. Saying gambling is a threat to gamblers is like saying scuba gear is a threat to scuba divers which literally makes no sense. Without gambling, there wouldn't even be gamblers in the first place!

It's a psychological thing really, and depends much on the capability of the person to resist temptation to gamble hard and lose money in the process, nothing to do eith gambling simply existing in the economy.

I am just stating my opinion about gambling mate, We are all different, we have different perception and definition in life, well, I have seen so many people that are already destroyed their life because of gambling, so what do you call about that thing? It is a threat to themespecially those people who lost their properties and most of their money because of gambling. So if you do not see gambling as a threat for you, then that is good, but do not say that it is not a threat because how can you say about those people that lost everything because of it? Please do not make yourself as a basis of everything. We are all different.

You are right in your thoughts about the fact that you cannot compare everyone with yourself. But there is one nuance, each person can talk about something only through the prism of his own experience.
Thus, when we talk about any things and objects, events and phenomena, we always pass them through the filter of our own perception.

Thus, we are always subjective and always talk about ourselves even when we mean other people. These are the principles of the brain.
