Actually gambling is for fun. In gambling you either win or lose, so don't risk gambling. Now if a poor man bets excessively on gambling, he may be left destitute if he loses. On the other hand, if a rich person bets on gambling, he may lose the bet and become poor. However, if you are lucky and win a lot of money in gambling, now greed will work in you, you will want to gamble again and you may become addicted to gambling. Now if you have enough income then you gamble for fun but don't take excessive risk in gambling.
