Most gamblers take it as fun at the beginning but day by day it turns into addiction for them. Actual problem arise at that moment when they wanna choose it as an option of earning. Its quite tough for them to get out from this habit and its common with most of the gambler.
It's different from region to region, but from what I know, only from 2% to 15% of people involved with gambling can be classified as problem gamblers. I think it's dangerous to state that
most of the gamblers are addicted because, apart from being not true, it can serve as an excuse for those who gamble too much for not stopping and not going to therapy. When most people are doing something it is considered kind of a norm. Problem gamblers must be aware of the fact that they are not normal gamblers, they are the suffering minority, who should do something about their addiction immediately.
