Everybody has a choice about how they want to spend their leisure time and what they want to spend their money on. All that matters is the fun that is archived. Gambling is not bad; people make it look bad through their own bad habits towards gambling. For me, gambling and games are the most fun 😊 things anyone can engage in; after all, we decide whether to give ourselves a chance or lose self-control towards what we do. Those who gamble and don't know when to stop are usually influenced by either the fun or the wins, although that's just my opinion. But, like you said, anyone who enjoys the fun of gambling must have self-control over it.

Exactly, every single thing in this world has two sides, a positive side, and a negative side, now it depends on us how we utilize that thing, if we use it in a good way, it won't be bad or harmful for us, but if we do it in the wrong way, we will definitely need to face the consequences of our actions. It's not that thing that is bad but it is us and our way of using it that makes it bad and harmful either for us or for someone else around us.

Gambling is exactly like that, if you use it only to have some fun and pass your time without wagering a lot of money and getting yourself addicted to it, it wouldn't be a bad thing for you, but if you take gambling as a way of earning money, spend a lot of money to get something out of it and also lose control and get addicted, that will be harmful to you for sure.

You are right by saying that gambling has two sides one is positive and the other is negative. However, most people who gamble often turn out to be using the negative side of the gambling as they think that gambling could make them rich over night and they spend thousands of dollars on gambling just in dream of becoming rich. The end up with losing all the money and get addicted to gambling, and such people will spend everything on gambling, and they can even sell their household items and properties to regain the money that they have lost during gambling. If someone of them turns out to be lucky then he/she might end up getting the lost money back, but still they will lose it again because of their addiction and greed.

Gambling has a positive side and that's its entertaining part. If we earn some money from gambling then that should be enough for us because we got both entertainment and money at the same time, but if we play more than we can lose up both of those that we earned with gambling. I like sports betting to some extent and when I win most of my bets it makes me feel happy, but I only bet when I'm 70% sure that I have higher chance of winning. I must say that I also have lost many of my bets and that's why I can say that gambling is unpredictable and your luck will decide either you will win or lose in gambling.
