No it is not. as long as you are not betting the money you need to spend for food.

For food is fine you can live just drinking water for a month Tongue
But for something like saving or something important money never spend it or money you can't afford to lose.

Addiction to gambling will never become right. If we treat gambling as a way to pass time  and not source of living ay the same time enjoying the process,  as long as you didn't hurt anyone then it's fine.

Very true always just play it for fun.
Hurting someone like let say your wife don't lie just tell the truth about how much you lose.
And when you seek for help if you are addicted.

Gambling is no way beneficial to your financial life. It's practically a 100% chance of losing. (Long term, that is.)

Gambling could be in a way beneficial to your emotional life, as it is fun and gets your mind off things that are sad or bothering you.

Gambling could also be beneficial to your social life, as if you make a big win, people can respect you, and your wealth. Also, if you lose alot, people can think you're rich.

That's not true. You can make a profit of gambling. You need some solid strategies and know when to quit. Most people make the mistake of going all-in when they are on a losing streak. Also, playing games like poker require a lot of skill instead of luck. Good poker players can make good money!

I don't think so. i known someone, friend of my friend that he lives from gambling. i don't know how it works but he do it. i think experience make him understand how to gamble smart and has a good mental.

Gambling is considered to be entertainment, but when people start to get addicted to gambling its very bad.
if people get addicted that's their own fault. its not like the casino staff are forcing them to play anything, they willingly walked in and decided to hand over their money and play to lose. but it doesnt stop there, theyre the ones that decide to walk back in with more money to hand over. its bad of people get addicted, but gambling itself isnt bad, its up to the people.

Yes it is wrong on a lot of levels.

When you go for the win you will see you will lose and that's not good.
So try gambling without money or avoid it all together.
if you gamble without money then its not gambling, its just playing a game, also some people find it entertaining to risk money and thats not wrong as they can do whatever they want with their cash

I do not see the essence in gambling, when we play do not take the money, because basically gambling is about money hmm  Undecided

money, or anything of value, is essential to gambling, you cant "gamble without money" - that would be a fallacy, because just rolling a dice (or running a similiar chance-based event) without a wager and a prize is not gambling - its just, well, rolling a dice

It's only wrong if you are playing it wrong.

I play it for fun and stop whenever I think I will lose more.
Or if I start getting irritated. Then I come back 1 day later.

But some people can't simply stop.. I think some people simply shouldn't gamble, because they have a special gene that triggers their massive addiction in an uncontrollable way. In the future we may be able to know if we have this gene with a lab test so we don't get exposed to gambling activities. It's luckily not my case, but some people shouldn't do it even for fun, because what starts for fun may end up in a big mess.

well its your money so you can spend it in a way you want even if its losing it on gambling games, i think its not wrong at all if you dont play with the amounts of money you need to live or buy food for yourself

Gambling is normal if you play it normally.
I know a lot of people tend to play it like it should be and for them there are no problems

But like always some people are not smart enough to stop and they blame gambling.

You have a solid point here. In many things a minory messes things up for the majority.
Gambling is no different since we see the same amount of users not knowing what they are doing.
