The problem is how you put gambling, if done only for fun in spare time is not a problem. But when gambling is done as a substitute for permanent work, this will be far more problematic and it is very difficult to control, the decision is in each of us and as much as possible avoid addiction in gambling.
Indeed, my friend. It all depends on how you interpret your gambling experiences. If you view them as something you do every day, you'll inevitably become dependent on them. Although what @lizarder said is the right course of action, if you gamble regularly, you run the risk of becoming addicted. Which, in my opinion, will result in a variety of outcomes because no one can control it any longer, especially for some young people who have no other employment options.Since they have nothing else to do besides spend what little money they have on gambling, I think that some people must be addicted to it. Once their money runs out, they may then engage in dishonest activities like scamming, robbing people of their property, or selling their own possessions.
