As long as you still enjoy the gambling you're doing, it doesn't seem to matter. Because I think there is no other reason to start gambling, except to seek a thrill and pleasure, not to make a profit or just multiply the wealth we have. Keep in mind that gambling is basically an activity that has a high risk, and even if you manage to win, this is only temporary, so according to my reasoning it is impossible if someone is able to generate long-term profits from gambling or from a number of bets placed, this is an impossible thing because of the superiority of the house or gambling operator.

I want to add voice to what you have noted. Finding a balance between enjoying the thrill of gambling and being responsible for one's actions is key to maintaining a healthy relationship with gambling. It's possible to derive enjoyment from the activity while also being mindful of its risks and limitations. By approaching gambling with a focus on enjoyment, acknowledging the role of luck, and practising responsible gambling habits, individuals can engage in the activity in a way that maximizes enjoyment while minimizing potential harm.

Gambling involves risking money on uncertain outcomes, making it inherently risky.  While gamblers can experience temporary wins or even streaks of success, as you noted, these outcomes are often short-lived. In the long run, the statistical advantage held by the house or operator tends to prevail, resulting in net losses for the majority of gamblers and even skilled players face an uphill battle against the inherent advantages of the house.
