Gambling should be seen as fun, not as a way to make money. If you think or see gambling as a way to make money, you will quickly become addicted to gambling. Gambling cannot be compared to investing because if you lose while gambling, it is lost forever, with nothing to recover. But if you can invest in something good, even if it is a temporary loss, there is a possibility of recovery later. So I would like to say that gambling should always be seen as entertainment, gambling should never be seen as a way to make money, and the amount of money that you can control yourself should be used on gambling, especially after losing. In my opinion, a maximum of 1-5% of income should be used.
In fact, no one gambles for fun, most people gamble with the aim of making money based on luck and everyone hopes that luck will come once to make a big profit. People who say gambling is just for fun are actually just hiding their gambling behavior. Gambling for money is what is happening today and that is why gambling attracts more and more people, we need to accept this fact. I don't see any problem as long as we gamble responsibly, don't let gambling affect our lives or become addicted.
Also, although we gamble to make money, we need to distinguish that making money from gambling is based on luck so it should not be considered an investment or a place to earn a steady income. If we want to earn stable money, we want to be successful... we need to rely on our own skills and knowledge, hard work, effort, not on luck because no one is lucky enough.
