People become addicted to gambling due to excessive greed and the hope of earning money. If there is no greed in someone, then that person will not be addicted to gambling. There are many people around my house or in my area who are addicted to money and are addicted to gambling. I have seen that at one time they were living a very good life and earning enough to make a living, but they participate in gambling to earn more, as a result, it is seen that at one time they become addicted to gambling.

If they lived a good life and earned enough, then why did they decide that they needed gambling? As far as I can see, in my circle almost no one gambles, both those who live in abundance and those who live very modestly. One of my friends got carried away with gambling and told me that he lost a very impressive amount, before that I did not even guess that he could be a gambler. I asked him why he did it, he said that he just wanted to make money, but instead he lost quite a lot, now he no longer gambles.

Apart from greed what's killing gamblers so much is the mentality they have towards gambling, they never believe gambling is a game of luck that is unpredictable, that is why they don't mind in taking so much risk in gambling so much expecting to get a better win.

Their are principles in gambling that can be a guild to help gamblers from becoming addicted. Some people greed is what makes them to be addicted,  while some they believe they can always win in gambling.  A proper understanding and sticking to the principles of gambling will play a good role how people should go about gambling.

I would not state that most people is addicted to gamble. The correct wording applied to them  is "involved" rather than "addicted". Those  who are really addicted to gambling consist miserable part of real gamblers. Some analogy can be applied here. Most people including me are used to dew their gullet by couple of slugs especially in the evening hours   but we don't consider them to be the horners.

Gambling should only be made for fun and pleasure, and should not be an avenue to develop our greed and selfishness over money and material things. But I think majority of the gamblers do not realize this. Because we have seen how these gamblers change priorities in life so they can maximize their time in gambling, leaving them susceptible to losses and deep gambling addiction when the actions are no longer in control. If only being a responsible gambler is a must, then we don’t have to see gamblers losing their way into gambling.


There are others who are just as greedy as gamblers who, because of their greed, find ways to gamble because of a desire they feel that they should get it. They also don't notice that while they gamble, their addiction to gambling is taking shape because of the greed that has developed in the personality of the gambler himself.

Because they felt like winning an amount that they didn't expect, that's what pushes them to experience it again and again, as if they were enchanted by something
that they were really trying to find.

In gambling, it's the gambler who has to pay all the charges and it's the house who grabs all the money. Addiction to gambling comes with mind set of making up the loses incurred during gambling. It is observed that those who got addicted to gambling ends up losing all there money. It's therefore necessary to make sure you are having a complete control over your emotions while you are gambling. Those gamblers who kept there emotions under control are neither addicted nor they lose much in gambling.

That is what should be done with gambling, but the reality is that many people who gamble aim to make a profit, double their money or even find a steady income. But instead of wanting to get a profit, it actually makes them acutely addicted. Wrong thinking or perceptions like the above will only make them trapped in an unfavorable situation, although they may occasionally get a win but it is unlikely to cover all the losses that have occurred. With so many people who have lost their way in gambling like their lives are falling apart, it should be a lesson and benchmark for ourselves not to gamble excessively because the consequences are like what has happened a lot too.
When you do aim on making money with gambling then this will really be your driving force on which you will definitely be ending up on having that high chance or probability on getting addicted with it.
You should really be that mindful into the things that you are really that dealing because on the moment that you do make gambling to be that a money making thing on your mind then it will be bringing up that kind of desperation on which this is really that very bad in overall. If you do keep yourself having that kind of intent then better think twice as these things will really be that definitely be making up some issues
as you do go forward on which we know that addiction isnt something that simply thing that you could get out on the moment or time that you had been shackled with it.

It’s always the greed over money, and the mindset that gambling could be an instant key to solve poverty. Everyone gambles for money, it’s just that some end up become too much greedy and cautionless, that they can’t no longer control their emotions and completely become a slave for gambling, a slave for money. That’s why gambling addiction exists, something that we should have always avoided.

Greed to make more money in a short time from gambling is indeed the beginning of where gamblers will be addicted. But addicted gamblers will argue that they enjoy gambling, not too ambitious to win, but every day they will come to bet.
Enjoying excessive games allows gamblers to lose control over their abilities. Such as not knowing the time or ignoring the money used for gambling.
Gambling games are indeed to be enjoyed, but sometimes gamblers go too far in doing so that they experience pressure, not pleasure.
Greediness is a consequence of people wishing to make quick cash without effort. They think it's possible to get rich overnight through miraculous methods they see being promoted on the internet. They see social influencers boasting wealthy and fancy lifestyles, and think they can reproduce it if they become gamblers. In the end, they just lose money and get addicted in a desperate attempt to chase previous losses.

Excessive gambling stops being enjoyable and starts getting annoying. It's not a mean to get entertained anymore, because the gambler is solely focused in recovering money which he shouldn't have lost in first place. And as he doesn't manage doing that, he ends accumulating more debt, being unable to meet his financial responsabilities in daily life. As consequence, people will see him in a negative way, as someone untrustworthy.

Gambling is not a good way to make more money, there are bunch of ways to earn quick money that uses mind and analysis like trading.
Some people are having the same description with gambling and trading. Or they really are saying that trading is also a type of gambling but without analysis and use of common sense that allows a trader to win, that's going to make someone more money. But just as gambling, it sounds too easy if it's with this type of description but in reality, trading is also another hard way of earning money. Those that are at the top and makes a lot of money from it are the ones that have struggled for so long and learned through experience and continual learning from the market.

Gambling games are indeed to be enjoyed, but sometimes gamblers go too far in doing so that they experience pressure, not pleasure.
Many don't notice that when we're enjoying, the emotions are also high. When emotions are high and money is involved, we'll never know what we can do with that very reason why we have started to gamble. And it's true that we're going that far and we cannot control everything even our emotions by that time it happens.

yes, greed and the hope of making more money are strong motivators in gambling addiction. It begins with wanting to make a little side money, but before you know it, it can get out of hand. People would often realize the risk of gambling, that and the odds are not in their favor. I have also seen people who were doing fine, then got sucked into gambling and trying to hit the lottery, that's the huge mistake they're doing.

Yup, it is certain that all forms of action that lead to excessive aspects are mostly done because of the urge to win, or I mean the urge to get a big win like that produced by other gamblers and of course the obsession with winning can very easily lead a gambler to a cycle of addiction. You said something right that the more we think about winning, the more uncontrolled we will be in every decision we make, most likely most of our decisions will tend to be aggressive or impulsive, therefore because of this we are always advised to only make gambling a place of entertainment, none other than because when money is not our priority in gambling, it is unlikely for us to take various impulsive actions, meaning that the possibility of our loss will not be too great.
Everything that pertains about excessive dealing up wit something is always been bad and this is something that put up on someones mind specially on gambling that this one really involves money. Be careful on dealing up with gambling because it could really that destroy your life if you wont be be that careful. Addiction is on the time or moment that you cant resist on playing despite of those huge loses.

People will really be just that starting on having those regrets on the time that they are experiencing hard situations. It not really that bad to gamble if you do make yourself that responsible.
They are really just that tending to forget even the most basic stuff or common sense on dealing up with something that needing up to expense some fund for you to enjoy.
Its not bad to enjoy but spending too much then this is where things get messy.

Of course basically anything that is done excessively will always be bad, and that applies to anything we want or are doing, well especially if we talk about gambling which is basically an activity that has a risky side behind the chance of winning, when a gambler has reached that situation then it is certain that he has reached or is trapped in a situation of addiction.

In most cases, it is true that usually people will only be able to realize their mistakes when regret dominates their minds, basically yes of course gambling is not bad, we cannot blame the activity because after all there is absolutely no coercion from the casino to us to continue gambling or to gamble blindly, and also from the start it is clear that gambling is about winning and losing, so if the question is who should be blamed for the slump experienced by a gambler then he himself should be blamed.

Most people thinks that gambling is a get rich quick scheme and a short cut to riches, that is the simplest reason that I can think of. If they are not lucky to win and they start to lose money, that is when they will start to chase loses. Chasing loses is the fastest way to getting addicted to gambling, the person can sale his belongings and even borrow money to satisfy the gambling urge. People that gambles should not see it as a means of making money, rather it is a place to try their luck, they can either win or lose, they should not be overconfident that they must win because that is not how gambling works. The gambling sites also wants to make money off the gamblers and on the long run they have a higher edge over the gamblers.

People get addicted to gambling based on the type of motive they have in the first place before starting to gamble; if the main objective of gambling is directed at making money out of gambling, then the price is to be consistent, and the more dedicated you are being, the more likely you will get addicted to gambling; it's as simple as that, unless the gambler is not being driven by the profit and money that can be made out of gambling; if not, it will be very hard to escape addiction chasing profit.
I totally agree with  you said, so it is very important to understand that gambling can be a very addictive activity, especially if we focus on financial gains in gambling, When we gamble with the main goal of making money, of course we can get stuck in a cycle to chase loss and wins so that in the end it can make us addicted,  to avoid addiction, of course, it will be easier for us to do it if indeed the gambling is only limited to entertainment, but if we are already trapped in it then it is very difficult for us to get out from  the addiction.

With those things come up in our mind we would have this thoughts that if we continue we might have chance to hit bigger gains. This thoughts will slowly melt the gamblers and they would not notice that they are gambling to much and it would be so late to realize that they are already been addicted on the games they are playing.

That's why to avoid hitting up in this stage maybe more better for gamblers not to expect so high on gambling. They should settle down their finances and quit once their balances already lose then don't extend their session by depositing more. Addiction is avoidable if we know how to discipline ourselves.
