So long as you keep your greed under control and don't start betting amounts you can't afford to lose, then gambling isn't a threat.

In reality, it's only a threat for those with even very low will power, or extreme risk takers that don't know when to call it quits. As such, anybody who has either of these two personality types should probably avoid gambling, as this is an industry where self control is an absolute must.

With that said, it might not be something that is entirely possible to control, since it appears to have a genetic basis: https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/10/191009131740.htm

Well said mate, If everything is under your control then gambling wouldn't be threat for you, if you can still control yourself form gambling then it would not harm yourself, it will be only fun for you, if you are only considering it as your entertainment, or if you don't bet so much money, knowing that it would be a low chance to win the game,

Once you became addicted in gambling it can destroy your life, you won't be more productive in everything. What you should do to prevent that thing is, you should know how to limit yourself, you should bring only limited amount of your money, so you won't be able to bet so much money, do not be so addicted on it because there is no good things about gambling, if it controls you.
