I agree! Gambling becomes a problem not just when money is lost, but when it starts hurting your life, affecting your daily routine in other ways. If it affects your health, job, or even relationships, then it's already a serious issue, even if you haven't lost much money.
It's about the impact on your life, not just your wallet.
Perfectly said, it's funny that people see the signs before it escalates but they don't do anything about it.. sometimes the money you lose isn't what you should be worried about but the other negative effects that it causes, some people lose their marriage, job, friends and other important things in their life because of their gambling habit.. losing money doesn't make it much of a problem compared to other damages it can cause
