I agree with what you said, someone who gambles for fun is unlikely to experience problems that affect them, but with those who gamble for the purpose of making money or making it a profession as you said, then they could experience quite serious or even big problems and will affect them financially or mentally, because there are also those who I think have mental problems when they have experienced big problems because of gambling.
It has become a certainty and there are also many cases that occur about someone who becomes poor because of gambling, if they do their gambling gradually with increasing behavior in gambling, then addiction is something that is likely to happen including its consequences.
People who gamble with the aim of making money often face problems. Especially if they fall into the mindset of trying to “recoup” their losses or turn them into work. Gambling for fun is one thing. But when it comes to being a source of stress or how to manage money? That's where the real danger lies.
Mental health also plays a role. Both the highs and lows of human trafficking can easily worsen problems like anxiety, depression, or compulsive behavior. I have seen how satisfaction can turn into obsession when people start chasing early wins. And when it comes to that point It's hard to abandon yourself without being actively involved.
It comes down to creating balance and clear boundaries. Accepting gambling as fun which you can sometimes enjoy Knowing that failure is part of the game. It seems like the best strategy. But it's important that people understand the risks before they find themselves in too deep.
So however when someone gambles with the aim of making money it can cause problems, I even think the problem is not only physical, with the environment or his own mentality it will be affected. In addition, with those who consider gambling as a job because of the thought of being able to get profit I do not fully support this, because it is impossible for a player to get profit in gambling consistently, it is impossible if the role is only an ordinary player, even with someone who is called a professional gambler I think they are not certain to be able to get profit consistently.
People who gamble with the aim of profit are certainly more susceptible to experiencing problems with their mentality, as you said with depression or stress which I think can happen because of unwanted defeat.
I agree with you, it is better to understand this first which is indeed something that has a big risk when we take the wrong step, and there have also been many cases that have occurred that should be used as a benchmark to learn from.
