This is not a case of being addicted to gambling. There are people who are actually in control of their gambling habits or addiction. For instance, they do not gamble beyond their budget; they commit an hour or two to gambling per week or twice per week and strictly adhere to it, among all other things.
And I'm sure there are many people who are involved in gambling exactly as you say and I am one of those people who might be the same as the story in your post. When I want to gamble usually set a special budget that doesn't interfere with other budgets and also don't gamble regularly because I usually only bet when there's a good football match and the amount isn't too big.
We have heard and read stories here and out there about how gambling ruins lives, careers, relationships, throws people into debt and more. But my question is, could this be happening to everybody?
I think it's real and has happened in life in the world and we may even have witnessed this incident from our close friends. In the end, he divorced his wife, lost his job, went into debt here and there and made life worse, such as depression. Of course, not everyone experiences bad experiences like that because if many people experience these problems, perhaps many people are now living much worse lives.
Has your responsible gambling habit had any positive effects on your relationships with your spouse, kids, parents, and others? Has it improved your finances and helped you stay out of debt? Has it improved your mental health and well being in anyway? Has it been able to help you meet an urgent need? Let's discuss.
Logically gambling is a gamble. Is it possible that gambling can give you big profits or improve your finances on a regular basis? Gambling is always synonymous with negative things, it feels difficult and it could almost be said that it is impossible for people to get regular profits after gambling like the question you asked. A casino owner once said this, "If you want to get rich from gambling then stop gambling and create a gambling site so you can pursue that wealth."
