i cant judge them wrong since they find happiness in what they are doing. after all if they can be working hard and gambling at the same time without getting addicted then there is no big deal. the lifestyle is just a responsible lifestyle if you ask me, it would have been a wrong lifestyle if they are gambling addict who work hard to fuel their gambling losses.
I have seen so many people who would go straight to the casino on payday. These were my colleagues at work. They were so addicted to gambling that they could lose their entire salary without worrying about the consequences. It seems to me that this was the last stage of addiction. What to do next and how to live if there is no means of subsistence? What were they counting on? This is a complete fall of a person as an individual.
