Gambling isn’t sure money. We have often heard people saying, “The house always wins”, so yes, only the casino owner gets profit by the gambling. You can try gambling as a secondary source of income, but shouldn’t completely rely on it. As gambling is a game of chance and luck, not skill, for this reason, the possibility of getting loss is very high compared to the possibility of getting profit. If you have a family to look after, or tons of regular bills to pay, then yes apart from gambling you also need to do some serious jobs.
Simply agree with you. Because it's quite absurd to see people who make gambling their main job and even leave their jobs in the office. Even though the money they get from gambling is also not as big as what they got from their previous job, and even worse they end up poor and their family is falling apart. Because to be honest, some people I know, who put their lives on the line, didn't have a happy ending, most of them were broke and their families were falling apart. That is why putting one's life at stake is such a stupid thing to do.
It's really a risky move to make gambling as a main source of income because it holds so much risk than any other possible jobs that you could get. You could turn out broke just because of playing gambling, what more if you'll treat it as a main job that will help your survive everyday. The pressure and the expectation from yourself will be higher that could result to being unable to play strategically and at ease which could certainly affect the outcome of your plays and bets. Additionally, the earnings won't be as stable so you shouldn't really expect and rely on it fully because the high hopes you have for it might turn into a nightmare situation.
Of course, gambling cannot be a steady income haven and it cannot produce the same profits everyday as it's just too impossible to hope for a successive wins without having any losses in a certain day of the week as you will need to gather all the luck in the world together to have a straight wins. But we cannot also deny that there are some people who takes gambling as a professional job as that term is not that new anymore but I surely don't believe that they don't have any generated incomes on the side to keep up with their lifestyle because being a professional gambler is just a risky job, one blink and you can lose everything you have, that's why it's more preferred to have a wide array of investments as another faucet of income.
