Gambling has ruined alot of peoples lives that I know & don't know. There are degrees of gambling and I know it can be an addiction. I wonder at what point do we have a problem and why do so many people love to do it. Any feedback appreciated

Personally, I really like to gamble but I see to it that I know my limitations. I guess gambling becomes bad when you overdo it. People's wants naturally are not satisfied easily that is why they crave for more and that's the time when it's perfectly wrong. I guess you can do gambling as long as you know your limitations and you can control yourself. Just enjoy the game and not always thinking of the money. Set some limits!! :)

anything can be addictive to be honest, its just that somethings have the capacity for more damage. Alcholism can lead to a great deal of health problems, whilst gamvbbling brings financial ruin. So many people love it becasue of the adrelaine rush they get of betting and maybe winning against the real risk of losing. Also so many people think that they can succceed at gamblign by beating the casinos and the like. The market is established in such a way that the odds of winning are nil, as Einstein said: "The only way to win from a roulette table is to steal from it."
