An absolutely healthy bettor or gambler will never think about these hobbies in their free time, because they have a lot of things to do and other thoughts that, in their opinion, can build a path to happiness.
An absolutely healthy gambler will simply work at his job or invest, and he will mentally understand that he will receive a raise or additional income due to this, buy something, and will not think about how to quickly take this money to the casino and supplement his bankroll.
That's true, the fact that gambling is best seen as a form of entertainment doesn't mean gamblers should dedicate much time to it cause they want to entertainment themselves, infact the more time and attention you give to gambling is how close a gambler is likely going to be addicted, every gambler should have a time frame for gambling so they can focus on other important stuffs like work or investment or even have quality time to spend with their family. Since gambling shouldn't even be considered as a means of generating money then people should give more attention to stuffs that generates money and put food on the table, like work and investment.
Only people who see gambling as a means of work or means of acquiring profits daily actually tie themselves to the act because gambling is something that if you engage rapidly and frequently can spoil your thoughts and ways of reasoning and that's why it's not good to gamble with your full mind hoping you will get something in return and also not tied to the fun purpose of always entertaining yourself, I believe the whole action should be balanced and everything should be done with reference to availability in time.
