It is correct that when anyone taking loan or something like that then the people may fall on more difficulties and that's why we should avoid any types of loan which can be repaid if win and if loss there will have no way to repay the loan and will be difficulties to survive the family. And also we should avoid anything which is not affordable.
Gambling can become a problem if you are not only playing with borrowed money but also start gambling with the money you earn. This happens when you begin to set aside more for gambling than you can actually afford from your salary. And if we are talking about taking a loan for gambling, then this already looks like a serious problem from the start because you do not have extra money saved up and you have to borrow for it. This means you are unable to manage your finances properly, and the borrowed money will most likely be lost as well.
Any gambler that involves in taking loan to game is already into a big mess because gambling with the money you earn is of less risk because you can lose in your gambling and then still feel the pains then go on with your life but losing with a borrowed money will lead you into trouble because you will face the pressure of paying back debt after losing and if you are unable to pay up the debt you will start thinking which can lead to other emotional troubles. You can set out some money from the amount you earn to gamble but you have to manage your self and control yourself not to cross your gambling budget if you don't want to go broke and go into borrowing.
