Yes, the possibility of addiction applies to everyone regardless of who they are, old or young, poor or rich, everyone has the opportunity to end up becoming an addict, and in the end the point is not much different from what you said that if we don't want to end up addicted then gamble wisely in the sense of gambling with full limits on time and the amount of money at stake.
Therefore, this is the reason why I often say and advise anyone, especially those closest to me, to first understand what they are actually facing, the way is to rely on a rational mindset in responding to gambling so that you do not misunderstand what is meant by the chance of winning in gambling, and if you have done everything well and correctly then I think you should be free from addiction.
The most vulnerable are those who bet on something they are not very good at, or those who are into slots, where I think it is almost impossible to win from a casino except for some random chance that I would definitely not rely on. And it also depends on how much the player is ready to take risks and how much money he is ready to play, rich or poor, they can equally lose all their money if they do not stop in time.
