Responsible gambling habits has helped me stay out of debt since I was able to control the losses incurred in gambling.
This simple thing contributes to everything mentioned in OP such as maintaining healthy relationships with family members, having a good lifestyle and managing the finances.
I guess responsible gambling has only positive sides and should be followed by every gambler.
This is a good advice, we have to gamble responsibly so that our life as a whole will be worth emulating, being a gambler, we are expected to monitor the way we gamble and also keep a track record of how we continue on same manners, this will prevent us from trouble or putting ourselves into one, sometimes when we don't have money, then we should be able to have patience with gambling to wait and work to earn the amount needed for gambling than going by way of debt, as you've said already, there's always a benefit in every responsible gambling.
