Those who borrow are more in debt, which is why it is better to gamble with own money rather than borrow. Many people gamble by borrowing money, especially because of addiction, and such gamblers do this more often. But for those who are not addicted and are in a position to repay the money, borrowing will not be a bad thing. It is best to gamble with your own money. If a gambler can gamble without any kind of mental pressure, he will win comparatively more. On the other hand, if he does not repay the loan, then he will lag behind in taking the right decision in gambling due to stress. Generally, borrowing money is easy for those who have the courage and ability to repay that money.
Borrowing money to gamble is simply unacceptable, and this is because gambling is not a source of profits but of entertainment, so there is no justification at all to borrow any sum no matter how small it could be, since once you take that step then you will be tempted to do it again and again, which could lead you to a massive debt you may be unable to pay, and all of this over an activity that is not really necessary on our lives.
