Just as the tittle already ask, I really want to know if people who are successful in gambling also seen as addicts because I believe for one to be successful in gambling or whatever they choose to do, there must be some good amount of time and effort invested in it as well as money and we know that a successful gambler must have invested both time, effort and even money to make any reasonable winning and these also are features of an addict as there are always excessive time spent on a betting site.
The question let's turn it around and what do you mean by success in gambling, is this related to being lucky enough to win so that we try to classify them as successful people.
There is a risk when you spend time and money on gambling because it is impossible to produce consecutive wins according to the targets achieved and that means the chance of success in gambling is quite small.
Now let's be sincere, will you also classify a successful gambler as an addict?
I don't understand the relationship between success and addiction in gambling because what we know is that gambling is uncertain luck so saying that you are successful in gambling is very inaccurate.
