Well, I believe that both Greediness and Gambling Addiction make our lives terrible. I was thinking about which one of the two reasons causes more disastrous in our life both in terms of mental health and finances.
It would be the base of experience or just purely an opinion but for me, Greediness is something that would really make us cripple.
"I want to bet more and more in order to win more. I will sell my properties so I can bet huge. " Greediness mindset keeps on the winning side, not satisfaction.
But addiction is a little disastrous, why? Because they can be satisfied with betting a small amount, at least they can gamble.
However, both can possibly happen in our lives when we can't control our gambling habit anymore. I prefer not the two but in this situation, I prefer to be just addicted rather than be greedy.
Gamble Responsibly...
I feel like both can just be as destructive as the other given the right circumstances. You got greediness on one hand that could literally run you out of your pockets when you gamble too much and forget that you have limits, especially when you're winning a lot and you think you're invincible for that matter. And then you got gambling addiction which sometimes could stem from the innate greediness that you experience and all that stuff. Also have to consider that gambling addiction could also come from a place of lacking, wherein you gamble because you lost so much money and you think the only way of recuperating all those losses is actually gambling more and incurring more losses in the process.
There are nuances to these kinds of topics where you can't just pick and choose which one is worse. IMO, greed can get you to a lot of good places, but it could also get you to a couple more that's really bad, gambling addiction on the other hand does not bring anything good to you. This is my opinion though.
