I think this one is easy. Greediness is more disastrous, as it spreads not only on gambling. That is a part of character, the way person lives. That is something that is formed by years, and it can be fixed in few years. For gambling addictions there are rehabs. People around can help to fight it. But it is a suicide mission to turn greedy person into generous. Btw, I really doubt that greedy person would even gamble. He might test gambling once, but he will suffer from every loss.

They both can result in losing money. Whichever a person has and it comes to a point that he loses everything, it's all disaster.  But addiction is harder to fight. Addicts will just keep depositing even if the money is intended for something else and the domino effect happens quickly when the person can't pay the bills.

Did you know that gambling addiction is considered on par with drug addiction? And, of course, a person does not immediately become a drug addict. He goes through several stages to become a dependent, that is, a sick person. In the same way, the player starts the game simply with the desire to play and to try; he does not bet all his money on the first game. Everything happens over time, and it is different for everyone. Therefore, it is believed that if a person does not know how to control his emotions, he will not be able to stop in time and will lose until his source runs out. As for greed, it is a vice. You know, a greedy person assesses the situation more soberly. Seeing his losses, he will definitely at some point understand that he cannot constantly lose; he will simply feel sorry for throwing money away. In addition, it is difficult for a greedy person to risk his money.

Gamble responsibly
The most common type of gambling addiction is the one with greediness. That is why the addicted person will be losing huge amount of money to the extent they may not have money again but start to borrow.

But addiction can also be that the gambler is not really wasting money on gambling but gambling is really taking his time. But this type of addiction is mostly not possible.

Most addicted gamblers are greedy.

Well, I believe that both Greediness and Gambling Addiction make our lives terrible. I was thinking about which one of the two reasons causes more disastrous in our life both in terms of mental health and finances.

It would be the base of experience or just purely an opinion but for me, Greediness is something that would really make us cripple.
"I want to bet more and more in order to win more. I will sell my properties so I can bet huge. " Greediness mindset keeps on the winning side, not satisfaction.

But addiction is a little disastrous, why? Because they can be satisfied with betting a small amount, at least they can gamble.

However, both can possibly happen in our lives when we can't control our gambling habit anymore. I prefer not the two but in this situation, I prefer to be just addicted rather than be greedy

Gamble Responsibly...
