Having an addiction is not that bad in my opinion. It only becomes bad if what you use it for is not right, like gambling, we know very well that many lives and families are ruined by gambling.
There is nothing wrong with applying it to the investment opportunity as long as it helps why should we stop, it's just that simple to understand. Just like you mentioned about food, there are people who are addicted to eating vegetables or love it, there is nothing wrong with it, instead it can lead to a good condition of our health and away from disease. But it is said that we must be balanced in everything we do because everything that is too much is not good and causes harm.
Any kind or form of addiction is bad. Why? You are really that doing things excessively even though this would really be pertaining about investment but still considered to be bad if things turns out to be uncontrolled or something that do talks about excessive manner. We do know that everything should be handled up not excessively because if you do then you would really be risking out something
which would be mainly on your fund since we are talking about investment. Investment should really be taken seriously but not on that excessive manner because once things turns out to be salty or bitter
then losses would be huge.
This is why risks management is really something that recommendable and be wary towards your actions because if you dont, then you would definitely be facing up huge problems later on.
Its okay to invest because we do have those kind of goals on making profit but everything should really be that in controlled manner if you dont like things to be messy afterwards.
