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.
The end point here is vices has never made a good effect in crypto or in all aspects of life. If you know you are living life like hell, then for sure everything is expected to fall down. And crypto is not an exception. Even if you are the best trader in the world, the fact that your life is ruled by drug and alcohol, then trading will be like gambling in the end that will make yourself the poorest among the rest. But everyone has still their own chance to get up, and definitely learn from all those past mistakes.
