We know that gambling is not a job because it is too risky but some people make it a job and sometimes even take out loans just to have gambling and there are also those who spend the family's money just to have gambling and that is what I can call an addict, the one who doesn't have self control.
There are a lot of occupations that would be considered risky. Gambling isn’t a job not just it’s risky but it doesn’t give the gambler a steady and constant paycheck either weekly or monthly. Admittedly, some gamblers have taken up gambling as a job. Constantly taking out a loan for gambling is just crazy and that could be considered a sign of being an addict.
Lack of self control when gambling creates an addiction in someone and would most likely bring about losses as well. And a gambling addict cannot be seen as successful.
