Just want to share something I’ve observed in our community. I know a few people who are consistent gamblers, yet they also work really hard. It seems like gambling actually pushes them to hustle more, because they need money to fuel their gambling activities.
I think it all depends on the kind of work the person is doing. If you're a civil or private servant such that your income is fixed and you may not have the liberty to increase your income, safe from those who their company pays for overtime, then your hands are tied and you may not be able to follow this rule, but in the case of people who are paid by their outputs at their workplace, just like contract works, then it can be agreed that if the person is a regular gambler and loses funds, then they'll try their best to recover their lost funds.
It's however very good to gamble responsibly and have a budget, that way you'll not be under any form of pressure to recover your losses
