If someone wants to gamble, it's up to them whether it's for fun or because they have an addiction to gambling. But I don't agree with taking a loan just to use it for gambling; I really don't agree with that.
Taking of loan to gamble is something that an addicted person will deem fine and I doubt that he would ever see it as wrong but  we all know that's it crazy to gamble with money someone actually borrowed you because gamble isn't something that guarantee's 100% income and the process can make you go more in dept. Money that is borrowed should be only used for cases of emergency and nothing else, as in when there is absolutely desperate need for it.

Not because he thinks it's okay, but he really doesn't realize the bad things he's doing. This can happen because there are three underlying factors, namely Habit, Addiction and Hypocrisy. Firstly, when someone is used to carrying out gambling activities regularly every week, no matter how busy he is, he will always make time to gamble on the weekends. Second, when someone is addicted to gambling, then when he doesn't have enough money to do that, he will try to get money regardless of how he gets it, whether it's through good or bad means, whether by asking or borrowing. He will always try to be able to continue his gambling activities. And the third is hypocrisy, when someone is truly addicted to gambling, then what he is looking for is not the truth about what he is doing, but a justification for himself. Where apart from him always telling lies to other people, he also often lies to himself.
