I gamble with my spare money, I don’t use money that are intended to pay my bills, and I’m not gambling for survival, so you see there’s no reason for me to get addicted with gambling.
Exactly, when you put gambling last before anything in life, you will be a responsible gambler, because you don't see it as a means of income. Gamblers get addicted because they see gambling as a source of income which make them put it first in their lives. If only gamblers can understand that no matter how frequently they try to make profits, the casino will always win.
I believe that they will find a way which they can use to limit their losses and gamble with only the amount of money that they can afford to lose.
This is exactly what people should do because its hard to deal on a situation on which we lost everything. That's why before engaging on gambling we must check first our financial capability if we could really participate in this activity without hurting us financially.
Since if it happens that we use our funds intended for important matters then we are possible in big trouble which could lead into huge mess if we lose lots of money in gambling.
But its sad that other people can't handle their vices and they exceed then those activities they use to think for fun turn into addiction that's why they badly messed up in life.
