Yes, gambling can make man destitute at any time.
I have to research for the term, but glad google help me, destitute defines as poor in simple terms.
Gambling is just for fun only. Gambling is not a way to make money. I know many people play gambling to earn money.
It's for fun because we can still make money while having fun, but it's not possible to most of us.
Many people aim to make money but most of us also fail, gambling is not a good source of income, it's because we don't have the edge.
Actually, we just need to learn the discipline and we can enjoy gambling, even if we are losing money.
