Only if you dont exceed your limits.

You can gamble and win or lose, but dont do it too much, even if you win a lot, because luck can change anytime.

That should be correct. If one know what is doing and how much his/her limit to lose on a given day then their shouldn't any issue in gambling because it is some kind of entertainment for some people but if this entertainment become a full time job then it will be wrong for every one. So just gamble to pass the time some times should be fine.

The actual problem with the gambling is no one will stick with their predetermined plans. Even the limit of losing for a day if crossed, many people continue that gambling of of greed or to cover the loss.

The major mistake is to gamble guided by emotion not by reason.

Yup, i think when bad losing streak happen, it's not because you're not luck on that time. But it because you're on bad emotional condition. (Bet too big than you can afford for lose, or maybe too greedy to play on some bet).

It's because of house edge not because of emotions .Dice doesn't understand's your greed and neither it knows what you can afford to lose or not.
you are busted because house edge is meant to do so.

Yes that is true because people come to gambling with some preset requirements like they want to this gambling winnings to some of their needs but when they lose initially they will be in a bigger problem so they will try to win again their lost money to recover but at the end they will lose more. If one don't control them self then gambling is wrong for them.

Gambling is not wrong. Gamblers themselves are the one who are wrong. Gambling has an other side and one example of it is the greedy side. Gamblers are the one who triggering the greedy side of gambling that's why in the end they have regrets because of wrong move or action they have done before the big loss.

Gambling is a part of human nature and it will keep revolve with complex until future. I can say , greed is caused why gambling can happen in past time. But as an adult we can choose whevener to keep betting with knowing the risk or don't bet because you're going to lose anyway.

I don't have any story to tell but based on my knowledge gambling most of the brings you loss instead profits. So as long as you avoid gambling then your safe.

 I agree that most of the time you are going to lose more than you wager.  However, something about your tone makes me think you are stating something a little above the obvious, lol.

But people really fulfill their goals.

The problem is that not all people. And those who dont can end up in big depressions after.

So I think people should only gambles as much as they can afford, and only if they are not in a financial crisis.

Gambling can be acceptable only if you play for amount that you can lose without troubles. But if we talk about addictions - each brings life to the bottom and destroys the family. There are no exceptions .. Sorry, maybe cigarettes..

Gambling is just for fun. It should not affect the player's family life. If it does affect, then gambling should be stopped. Family life is most important of all. I heard there were institutions which helped the addicted.

These types of people are foolish. They must understand that there is a high chance of losing something so they should just consider it a hobby rather than a lifestyle.

Gambling needs preparation and strategy, must not be faced as a casual game for fun when money is in game.

Gambling is legal in many countries. There is nothing wrong with that. If you are not addicted to it, gambling is fun and good entertainment. If gambling is not allowed in your country, go to another country to play.

Hello!

My opinion is that, Gambling is not wrong but the way we get into it is wrong. I heard and read about bitcoin gambling where users gamble with alot of coins and in the end, lost all. While gambling, we should know where to stop and get back. Gambling involves risk till you are not sure if you will get a profit guaranteed or not. I am soon getting into it and hope to get some profit out of it.

Gambling is a-moral. It is neither good nor bad. There are a few professional gamblers out there, but they are very few. I am talking the truth. I get no advantage promoting gambling from my sig campaign, as some whiners bitch about.

Signatures? How about learning a skill... I don't care either way. Everybody has to make a living somehow.

Gambling is just a gambling. No mind, no heart, can't touch by bare hands etc. so it doesn't make sense if people will blame gambling why they are wrecked. People have mind, heart and ability to think good but the non living gambling can rule them out. So the bottom line, those who gamble are wrong and not the gambling itself.

That is very correct because as long as one control them self in gambling even for making money out of it should be fine. They should fix certain amount for gambling before starting then if they lose that money then just come out of it instead trying to get back those lost money. But if one try to get back the lost money then they will be trapped and may lose all their money in gambling.

Gambling is neutral. If we are not obsesed with gambling and not let it affect our lives, it is a good entertainment and is very fun part of our life. We can gamble a little, live a lot.

Everything is like gambling when it comes to money.  Investing, different form of gambling, stocks/trading, a different form of gambling.  Insurance? Gambling and in the states Insurance is mandatory to have for your car, so basically they are forcing you to gamble.
