Beside gamblers addict doesn't gamble to make money, they gamble to feel good, excited and entertained. And they can do whatever it takes to gamble even if they have to borrow money to gamble, just as you said. and this is probably the perfect definition of irresponsible gambling. Because sometimes this may have a great negative impact on the life of the gambler and that of his family, and it may lead to a great disaster. Anyone can fall a victim of being addicted to gambling, no matter their economic status, either rich or poor depending on their level of gambling.
Poor people have a particularly hard time when their account is empty. It throws them off track, and it affects not only the emotional component, but also the overall family financial situation. This happened to me at one time. I would never have thought that I would fall into a financial hole from which I would not be able to get out on my own for many years. I had to go through nine circles of hell. It was a terrible time. I constantly wanted to escape from reality and not return to it. Bad thoughts constantly swarmed in my head, which did not give me peace day and night. I could not sleep, and this led to stress and depression.
