Yes, it is the madness of a gambling addict that will destroy your life and that of your family. I also have a friend who works hard but unfortunately he spends his money just to gamble. He is not married so he has no responsibilities to his family. But he had debts and that was also used for gambling. His hard work is just for gambling. It's a shame because it means he has ruined his future. It's a shame when he spends his money on gambling instead of investing.
I think it might be the only way that person knows how to "invest".
There's really no way to be rich by getting a salary only. You need to invest in something, and over time, you get the benefit of the increased price. Or rather, the relative value of cash goes down against your assets.
It is true that without investment one cannot progress in life just by getting a job and salary. Everyone needs multiple sources of income to live well. But gambling cannot be a good investment for anyone. Gambling is the place of entertainment from here only fun is to be taken. And for that you have to spend money. In gambling you lose more than you win. So it cannot be considered as a source of income. Those who consider it as a source of income will not hesitate to spend more money here. So it will harm the shelf a lot as opposed to benefiting it
