It is true that gambling and trading both carry risks. I agree with you trading must have good skills. If he really did well, I'm sure he wouldn't have experienced something like this. The main cause is addiction, if not like that I am very very sure, at least he can minimize the losses compared to now.
I hope he, generally we all don't experience something like this.
