I couldn't really tell how hard it is because I really enjoy my work,
But I also consider it as a hard earn money since I also spend time and effort for it.
But this wouldn't really stop me from gambling because if I am being stress out from my work or family problems gambling is one way to relieve the stress.
It's hard to earn money but it saddened when your hard earned money loses in gambling. If in gambling gives you an entertainment it's good as long you have discipline in playing and have a self control when to stop when in lose. Just manage wisely your money for you to avoid big lose when playing.
Earning money wasnt an easy thing excluding to those people who do have inherited lots wont really care at all on how they would spend up their cash.
This is why they do play gambling without minding if they do lost that much or not since they do know that they do still have the money to play on afterwards.
Each people do have its own capacity in terms of financial aspect and we should be at least know how to handle it well and never be driven with emotions.
