Yes, gambling can teach you not to succumb to emotions and not spend all your money on entertainment so as not to be upset.
You are right, also gambling can teach someone gamblers to not be greedy, because greed is the worst problem when we talk about gambling. So with these lessons you can build your experience and to control yourself even in the worst situtations of gambling. Greed brings out the worst in us and leads us to failure. The problem is I find gambling encourages it rather than teaching us to control it.
Literally about the usual gambling, yes.
There are gamblers that after losing a big amount but still continue to play gambling, are now being a responsible gambler. In here there is already a lesson. They can't easily left their gambling activity that's why to minimize the risk, they will now play according to their own strategy while doing a responsible gambling like managing properly their bankrolls.

Yes absolutely gambling gives many lessons in life, but i think the main lessons you probably should learn is not be GREEDY although greed is really hard to escape to because we all know that GREED is one of the 7 deadly sins in the world. If you wanna try to gamble your money dont be rash or greedy play it nicely then when you already won try to save or keep your capital and a little bit of profit so that when you still wanna play youre not going to lose any money.
And always remember that there will be always a bad day, when you feel you're losing consecutively then stop, rest, then play another day so that you will not be tempted to loan a money which resulting sometimes in heavy debt.

Yes it can. Everything we do in life teaches us something and mistakes teach us harder and better than anything else.
Try losing a lot of money on a single bet and you'll remember it for the rest of your life.
If you're a card player gambling will teach you to stay calm, calculate the odds and manage your money. If you're playing in a real casino you'll have to also get rid of all twitches and facial expressions that could allow others to read you.

Yes of course can give you a lot of lessons in life, in terms of financial losses that can teach you how to value money in a matter of time. Because thar time you are engaged in gambling is you are not thinking to earn money for your family and the only thing you aim is to win and not lossing. If we generally analyze the whole idea here, you didn't expect to loss and yet you really loss because gambling always make's you loss rathen than winning. Having a bigger lossea that cannot be recovered by playing again will certainly give you a nice lessons that will also give you the principle of not joining gambling bets anymore; life will be change as well.
Well to me also gambling gave a lesson, which was never take decisions solely based on what you feel rather make decisions what your mind says and the market believes. I have lost enormous amounts and still I gamble and I feel I am addicted too. Though I lost a lot but well, since the price of bitcoins has took off I had some saved bitcoins which helped me forget my losses. Trust me guys gambling is no good to life.
Don't try to be greedy is the main lesson that I can get from gambling actions. Greedy at gambling and at any other type of activities will lead us to get a bad situation at the end.
The lesson of life to learn from gambling is that, life is a game of chance and the swiftest seldom wins the race, because every hand is a winner and every hand is a loser as best summarized by Kenny Rogers Grammy Award nominee for Record of the Year 1978 - The Gambler! Code:
Lyrics
On a warm summer's eve
On a train bound for nowhere
I met up with the gambler
We were both too tired to sleep
So we took turns a-starin'
Out the window at the darkness
The boredom overtook us,
And he began to speak
He said, "Son, I've made a life
Out of readin' people's faces
Knowin' what the cards were
By the way they held their eyes
So if you don't mind me sayin'
I can see you're out of aces
For a taste of your whiskey
I'll give you some advice"
So I handed him my bottle
And he drank down my last swallow
Then he bummed a cigarette
And asked me for a light
And the night got deathly quiet
And his faced lost all expression
He said, "If you're gonna play the game, boy
You gotta learn to play it right
You've got to know when to hold 'em
Know when to fold 'em
Know when to walk away
And know when to run
You never count your money
When you're sittin' at the table
There'll be time enough for countin'
When the dealin's done
Every gambler knows
That the secret to survivin'
Is knowin' what to throw away
And knowin' what to keep
'Cause every hand's a winner
And every hand's a loser
And the best that you can hope for is to die
in your sleep
And when he finished speakin'
He turned back toward the window
Crushed out his cigarette
And faded off to sleep
And somewhere in the darkness
The gambler he broke even
But in his final words
I found an ace that I could keep
You've got to know when to hold 'em
Know when to fold 'em
Know when to walk away
And know when to run
You never count your money
When you're sittin' at the table
There'll be time enough for countin'
When the dealin's done
You've got to know when to hold 'em (when to hold 'em)
Know when to fold 'em (when to fold 'em)
Know when to walk away
And know when to run
You never count your money
When you're sittin' at the table
There'll be time enough for countin'
When the dealin's done
You've got to know when to hold 'em
Know when to fold 'em
Know when to walk away
And know when to run
You never count your money
When you're sittin' at the table
There'll be time enough for countin'
When the dealin's done

Some people don't learned from their mistakes, keeping and making up excuses from the reality that they're trapped into gambling. Even what happened to them, still coming back until they achieved what they wanted and probably that time they will stop. Just blinded by the money and being selfish to their self. Not realizing how's life without gambling?
Gambling is the school of life. It can teach you:
1. Value of hard earned money, how easy it is possible to lost it all within seconds after unfortunate lost game.
2. The fact that you usually need to lose 100 times to win just 1 game.
3. Gambling can show you how strong can be the feeling of joy after winning a bet.
and of course gambling can teach you how to be total idiot and how to lose money in the most irresponsible way

It has taught me that greed usually leads to failure and that there are very few shortcuts to success. I think very few gamblers learn this lesson though but if you take the time to think about it you will realize the real path to success is through hard work and a smart mind.
Gambling always give the lessons only for gamblers not all of us, and about in our life, than i agree with you.
Because in gambling we learn how to save our money and how to save ourself from lose but i am sure in the end always gambling win the game.
Also your are speaking truth, we have aim in gambling to win not losing, and in this time, gambling tell us the reality, when we get lose.

Maybe the lessons where you would understand that you shouldn't take gambling seriously and not be too much addicted to it. It's like being entertained by it but not make it too much of being entertained that you lose money to it, it's not worth it. You can learn that money isn't that easy to throw away, maybe it's not for everyone but the majority probably can use it for better use.
Yes the main lesson i learnt from gambling is don't play long time if you play long time you will addict to this gambling. And it teched me one more thing in gambling only investment there is no income. Only income is entertainment. This is unlimited. But it teaches me don't use my personal money in gambling. And sometimes I lost huge money that time it teaches me how to handle the pressure situation. 
Well, actually if we too hope in gambling to get many advantages is a nonsense. Because you need to know, gambling is the place to get pleasure. An advantage in gambling game bonus of only our good, if we can't play well then everything will be the same. Because each game will definitely give the defeat and victory, it already can not be changed or replaced.Be someone who could be better and then for sure you will get many advantages
Gambling can never give pleasure first thing. Actually gambling just does not means betting on events and rolling a dice but all the decisions you made in your life related to finances are actually gambling since you don't know the output and yet you are making those decisions.
Though gambling can be never good for anything but a pro gambler might differ saying that he learned how to control temper through his gambling.

- Gambling teaches us a lot of lessons. With some people, gambling teaches them lazyness and wants to make quick money will not give them a good result, we will get good results when we work hard and rely on our ability to make money. With some others, it teaches them not to be greedy, to know when is enough, when to stop. To me, gambling teaches me that making money is not easy and the consequences of gambling addiction are terrible, it can ruin a person's life, advise me to stay away from gambling before it's too late
