So how do you see this kind of lifestyle? Do you judge them as wrong because their reason is gambling, or do you respect it since everyone has their own way of finding happiness?

In my experience, I have seen some people who gamble and when they lose continuously, when they run out of money, they work hard to make money. Basically, gambling is a platform where people become addicted and if they get caught up in the tide, they are ready to work hard just to make money from gambling. However, I think this is not right at all because a person loses his hard-earned money in the tide, which punishes him greatly mentally. You should never gamble with your hard-earned money. It is very painful when you have to lose, so if you want to gamble, you must play responsibly and play with good experience.

I have a friend IRL who do the same as what you are talking about, he owns a business and he works everyday but he spend of his daily profit just for gambling.
He is addicted but he does not realize it although I've told him many times to take a break of gambling but he cant and he follows his addiction until he is trapped in big debts now.
Unfortunately although he is on big debts now, he cant stop what he starts and keep on working-gambling as he thinks that only gambling that can make him get quick money to pay all his debts while he is not realizing that it leads him into bigger debts.
