It will depends on the person, there's are people who are addicted to a lot os stuff like drinking, gambling, drugs etc
Some people can gambling without lose control, like me, so FOR ME it's just a hobby that I know how much I can gamble and nothing more, if I won, great, If I lose ok too

The own person have to know if he or she is weak to control their emotions in gamble, so this subject is more complex than we can discuss here, it's on the side of psychology

Threat -for you if you treat Gambling as a Source of Income to earn more quick Money and also if you become addicted to gambling because you could lose all the money you have and also this will ruined your life because you can't control your self to gamble.
I believe almost 80 percent of gambling community is either addicted or use it as an earning source. I do know few firends of mine who have been utilising most of their salary to feed their addiction.

Quote

Fun- is when you treat Gambling as a time wasting and for fun only,  If you have control to your self and know your limitations .

I use is it to pass time and I am not gambling everyday as I am too pre occupied with my work. I believe you can also if you choose to work more than sit and gamble.

have you ever met people who live only out of gambling and nothing else?
are there people like that or not?

Gambling it will become threat to us if we are losing control using and spending our money to the gambling.
It will turn into fun if we enjoy playing gambling because they ahve times it is one of my stress reliever.
I believe we chose when gambling become threat or fun but we need to prevent a threat to our money when we are playing.
Yes it will become a threat because some people when playing gambling they cannot control their emotions. It should be treated for entertainment and we should have discipline during playing gambling. That’s what we have to do to make things right to avoid gambling a threat and lose our money.

Mainly, the threat to people isn't gambling itself, it is their own decision making that makes such a wonderful industry of gambling becomes negative. How? Most of the people are getting addicted just because they earn a little. Some other person can see gambling as their way of showing others how rich they are, which turns out to their funds getting lost because of playing too much and betting big amount at once.

I could say, gambling do really induces a positive experience if you only bet something you could afford to lose, when in case you have too much of a cryptocurrency that you think isn't worth the investment, then gamble it. Try to test your luck without thinking that you might lose something important.

Well, If I am to answer the subject "Is gambling a threat or fun?", it weighs more on the fun side as I know in myself that I can control my funds, and I am not betting amounts exceeding my limitation alloted to gambling.

Everyone wants to make money with gambling and that is fine but you have to know yourself and know your limits.
We have to do this because we are responsible, we are not gambling to be rich although its possible because we will just only lose more and more money.
This could be a shortcut to financial success but we are taking a very big risk here, and everyone is not willing to do that and some does not even know they are already taking a big risk without seeing it, that is due to addiction.

As long as you enjoy and you don't endanger your financial situation and your health gambling is a positive thing.
It pretty much fit me, I am gambling for fun right now although that ambition to make money and be successful is still their.
But you are right, limitation is very important as that would limit the risk also.

I will explain on both sides because gambling can be a threat of a fun for the gamblers.

Threat - Gambling will be a threat when you got addicted into it and you are doing bad things that you are not doing when you aren't addicted into it. Gambling will be a threat to gamblers if they can't control themselves and their minds thinks only gambling. It will be a threat when they spend most of their time and money into it which can lead to nothing TBH.

Fun - Simple as this. Gambling will be a fun for gamblers if they are happy doing it and they know when to stop if they lose their money that is allocated for gambling only.

Gambling should always be fun. If you see that gambling is taking control over your life then is a threath to.your phisical wellbeing. This often goes to addiction and many don't recognize that.

It simply is related to self-control. Those who have control over their greed and they know what amount of money actually they can spend on gambling are the ones who enjoy playing this game. Those who have sole objective of gambling to make money are the ones who often get addicted and frustrated.

To be honest, not all of them are being addicted to gambling.

I do also want to earn money from gambling, and again, to be honest, that is one of the purposes why I am gambling; all of us are dreaming of winning something from gambling. It really depends on the gambler himself since if he really is a responsible human being, he will never let himself be addicted to gambling, he knows when to stop and he knows that no matter what happens, gambling will never be a source of income and you are just having fun.
I never believe this thing that people gamble for the sake of fun only. Even in seeking fun, a part of them wants money, it becomes happy by the very idea of being rewarded in the form of money. So yes everyone gambles for money and we shall gamble smartly in order to save ourselves from losses and meet success.

It depends on the users or gambler itself me personally I don't find it as a threat and I consider it as fun, the excitement of every card, dice or sports result from time to time however if a person find the gambling as he's hope or a source of income this will become a threat since they will risk their money hoping on getting more and if they would lose they wanted to win it back again and win more.

While the other gamblers see the gambling as a place of entertainment and even though they lose they are in controlled of their money since all they want is the entertainment. If we lose, we lose and we accept it since we know the risk and we are ready to lose a certain amount of cryptocurrency or money.

It has happened a lot including my friends in my area playing gambling as the main breadwinner and wanting fast money with gambling profit, so what will happen they lose control of themselves so that their savings are used to play gambling he feels sorry after losing all of it.

Fun- is when you treat Gambling as a time wasting and for fun only,  If you have control to your self and know your limitations .

It's better to play gambling when there is free time and the most appropriate is the weekend where we are on vacation working.

So long as you keep your greed under control and don't start betting amounts you can't afford to lose, then gambling isn't a threat.

In reality, it's only a threat for those with even very low will power, or extreme risk takers that don't know when to call it quits. As such, anybody who has either of these two personality types should probably avoid gambling, as this is an industry where self control is an absolute must.

With that said, it might not be something that is entirely possible to control, since it appears to have a genetic basis: https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/10/191009131740.htm

For me, it's both if you cannot treat it as fun all the time then there is a threat that it could become a vice and that vice is a big threat to your pocket and to your relationship with your family because you are going to spend more time and money just to keep up playing because it stopped being fun and you want to make money out of it.

for other hardcore gamblers or those who consider gambling as an opportunity to earn some profit, I am sure they consider gambling as a threat but also a way of earning money.
but basing in my own experience gambling is fun. for me as a casual gambler that has some extra pennies to waste. gambling is a form of hobby that gives me comfort and keeps
my thoughts away from work that usually stresses me out and helps me clear my thought and continue my work after I finished gambling( I am a freelancer thus the reason why I
can gamble anytime I want). but I can't say that other casual gamblers feel the same.

Based from your words, there are a lots of different opinions or self explanations regarding to this business. People who have such control and good
understanding of this hobby can treat it out to be entertained and nothing else, they are willing to move forward after they've satisfied the needs
inside them and forget about the results, while for some, treating this venue as source of income by using their skills also being considered.

Gambling is fun until you start gambling a lot of money.
If you start doing that then this becomes a thread for your health and your relatives because you don't risk your own money but also your family's money.
The gambling funds should be separate from daily expenses. Even some gamblers live in overconfidence mood and they think feeding the family with X percent of the turnover amount shouldn't be a big deal for punters with a great experience. Risking the big amounts is another level of stupidity if there is no way back. Logic is not the only the controller of the whole process, being a human means the emotions affect all made decisions.

It's really is wishful thinking, thinking that you can make an income out of it and there lies the danger and become a threat when you keep on thinking that there is money to be made in gambling and the fun stop when you think that you can cheat the house and your win can extended if you play it right, which will prove wrong eventually.

Gambling can easily be both threat and fun.
It varies upon the person playing and how to take his gambling session in his life. Gambling is fun that's already given but only if you are winning, some gamblers when they lose they go on rage mode trying to recover their losses and this is where gambling becomes a threat.
Gambling will just only be a threat if you get addicted to it and if you don't have self discipline, gambling is fun if you have total control about it and it is not ruining your life.
