Choosing between cigar addiction and gambling addiction is like choosing between health problems and money problems. One can smoke a cigar and gamble within reason, but in terms of addiction, health problems would be far worse, especially if one gets  something like lung or tongue cancer from cigar addiction.

I know this topic was, but I'm interested in explaining why you would compare these two things that have only one thing in common, addiction. Why compare them if they are two different terms.            
 Eg for cigars we give money and have no profit, while for gambling we give money and there is a possibility of getting money. In the world, these two topics are crucial, but why Huh
Whether the addiction is a mental deficiency or simply as a love for something?
When someone loves a sport is he or she addicted?
I don't have much to say about which addiction are worse than the other. Both will make a person addicted to it once a person able to try it. My honest opinion about these two addiction that both can be dangerous and will cost you lots of money once a person is addicted to something. Gambling addiction is a little bit different since you have a chance to earn big or small amount of money but the amount of money that you have won is not enough to cover the total money that you have lose in gambling.

I would like to say that i can quit gambling for a long time period and it's easier then quitting tobacco for me. But definition of gambling is quite vague, and comes big a broad spectrum like addiction itself. Is investing in altcoins itself gambling? I would like to think not and i like to think that i know what i am doing, but i am a little biased on this subject.
Some would say that everything i do in life is more or less gambling anyway.
No. Why investing would be gambling? It's not the same. When you lose at a gambling game, you lose all your bet. It's not the same with investments. When you do a bad investment you only lose a part of your capital.

Smoking used to have some benefits. Smoking men used to look good, more manly. Smoking used to be seen as something that calms nerves and gives our hands something to do. Now you can see it's all a myth. Most people don't smoke and it's even rude to smoke at someone's house or at parties because other people might not like it. Smoking makes your walls look dirty and your car smell like a chimney. It has no benefits.

Gambling is addictive but at least you can win something and have some fun in the process.

Cigarette addiction is also a health hazard. although gambling is far more dangerous, both of them if we can avoid it. there have been many cases that people died from these two things. The difference is gambling can make us poor and also stressed. Everything we have can be lost and also our health becomes affected because we always think of losing or betting that we place.The content of Nicotine makes people addicted to cigarettes and for gambling The big win becomes an opiate for gamblers to be able to get it
Both are the same must be avoided. for cigarettes the danger faced very clearly is death. and our gambling can also lose our wealth. and we ourselves should be able to find this solution because if we are addicted to both, it will be very difficult to eliminate even though we have tried as much as possible.in my country gamblers more and more and the severity of smokers also increased since a young age

Gambling addiction. At least it's tickling your brain, not lungs.

Now, seriously - it's best to have full control over your desires and body and avoid both.
Smoking will slowly kill you.
Gambling addiction will destroy your life and family. You may even prefer at some point to be dead.

Everything is OK until you have control over it. If you don't - seek help before it's too late.
Yes, the problem with addiction is self control. Indeed, when someone has been addicted to anything at least they no longer have good self control but as long as they can enjoy cigarettes and gambling in a reasonable stage then I think it doesn't matter too if indeed he has a healthy lifestyle like sports and other activities.

I consider cigar addiction, as much worse than gambling it destroys the mind and the body
~~~
On gambling you will lose all your money but you can always recover that, if you lose your health you lose everything
It is easier to recover in gambling addiction with the help of your relatives and parents. In cigar addiction, it will be harder especially if you have health problems already that.

The problem with being addicted into cigars is that it will be hard for them to stop it immediately for some reasons. They can minimize it from lets say 10 cigars each day to just 8 and then 5 then 2 then 1 then stop it totally. This is the reason too why I don't want to use cigar because of the health problem it can give to a person within the years of using it.
i think both cigar and gambling addiction have the same treatment when it comes to involving friends/family supports.

and of course any kind addiction will never be easy to be completely healed , you know because that addiction feeling that addiction behavior is hitting you in the brain which means it will be so hard to erase all of those memories especially the sweet one.
making you get vulnerable and that is all where an addiction started.

cigar addiction could be worse as it harm other people , while gambling it is not .

On gambling you will lose all your money but you can always recover that, if you lose your health you lose everything

This is exactly what I want to say, as a problem of so many proportions can be compared to losing money, smoking cigars entails a lot more harm than gambling. We must not place these two dependencies in the same point.

Let me explain your opinion more further.

Addiction on both is deadly, I agree that cigarette can cause lung cancer but did you know that it is not the cigarette that cause cancer, it is your cells in your body, if is weak enough that can't fight bacteria or harmful chemicals, then cancer cells will build up in your body. However we must also keep in mind that gambling could also weaken our body that can cause to death, or even make enemies by gambling, either you are indebt with somebody and you can't pay him therefore he killed you, or you are too good in gambling and someone killed you because of envy.

I really don't know why people find it hard to do things in moderation when they are not babies that are just growing, smoking cigar is a good habit, it keeps the body warm and that's the same with gambling but once it becomes an addiction it becomes a great challenge.
Yeah, well, I think it's because of the lack of self control one has or...it's because of the components of the cigarette that makes it so addicting.

However, I don't think smoking cigar just to warm your body is a good habit. I mean, there are also other ways to keep your body warm like drinking coffee or just wearing a jacket, right? Maybe that's also the reason why people get addicted. They see the benefit they get and just ignores the negative effects.

Want you addicted to cigarettes or gambling, everything is difficult to get rid of it. But compared to being addicted to gambling, I prefer to be addicted to cigarettes. I know cigarettes are dangerous to health, but the money spent on cigarettes is much cheaper than you gambling. That's what I think about why I prefer to be addicted to cigar / cigarette.
My buddy, cigarette addiction is way more dangerous than gambling, those people who are addicted to cigarettes can even smoke more than a pack of cigarettes every which in long run will cause cancer and also money problems as cigarettes are not cheap everywhere in the world. Gambling on the other hand does demand payment first and any wise man would know that you shouldn't borrow money for gambling.

I cannot imagine how, if that gambler has gambling addicting and cigar addicting at the same time, he must need a lot of money to cover his addiction. I see that in traditional gambling, people have addicted to gambling, but they also smoke in that place, and when I asked them why they smoke. They answer that it can help them to think about how to win the games. So that makes me think they will have double-spent in gambling and cigar because when they end the cigar, they will light another cigar.

Addiction for me is the highest level of liking something. For example, when we like a sport in my opinion it's fine, but the problem is when we like the sport excessively to allow the adverse effects of excessive use. Like gambling, gambling will not be a problem when playing simply but it will become addictive when it is excessive and will have further adverse effects.

I really don't know why people find it hard to do things in moderation when they are not babies that are just growing, smoking cigar is a good habit, it keeps the body warm and that's the same with gambling but once it becomes an addiction it becomes a great challenge.

Well, the point is that everything that is done excessively can have a bad impact and that can also be called addiction. And this applies to everything including gambling, smoking, taking drugs, etc.

In some points, smoking is not as bad as gambling but both of them are bad and they can affect anyone's lives.

If you are addicted into gambling, yep anything can be sold and be done to play the game but you can prevent it with the help of other people or relatives. You can say that cigarettes are cheap but the effects of it into our body are far worse compare to gambling addiction. Even in our country, cigarette prices doubled in the last 1-2 years I think and it can increase more in the next years which can help those who are addicted into cigarettes because they can't afford it anymore or maybe they can but they will lessen it because of lack of funds to buy.
It's actually the damage that cigarette addiction does to the victim that makes it terrible and worse than gambling because ordinarily gambling everyone would prefer cigar to gambling and to think the smoker would definitely stop smoking as soon as they finish their money but the extent of damage that's likely to done to the addicted person is unpredictable

Well, in fact the damage that smoking incurs is quite predictable

In the worst case scenario you will wind up with some lethal disease like lung cancer or anything to that effect. But can we actually gauge the damage that the addictive gambling can cause? People are known to take their lives due to their losses (and in this respect gambling addiction is quite on par with compulsive smoking), but we have not yet started to consider how toxic such form of gambling is to society in general

Gambling addicts can easily ruin not just their own lives but also the lives of many other people, and not limited to their family. They can be engaged in all forms of destructive behavior like theft, robbery, or any other criminal activity. In this way, they are very much like drug addicts. Have you ever seen, or heard about, even one smoker doing that just because of their smoking? Highly unlikely, if not outright impossible, as smoking doesn't change one's personality
