During my colleges days i often gamble with my friends and sometimes i would skip class just to gamble with them, it took a toll on me when i didnt get enough grades on a class which a often skip, since that day i stop gambling and finish college then find a work and gamble once a month.

It's great you saw it quite early and quit to pursue your studies more seriously because many get entangled between studies and gambling and  the weak ones often give up their studies to gamble for money and are often plunged into addiction.

That's really bad to be honest..
I only sometimes, gamble at school, on my phone xD
What gambling game you are gambling? I do gamble at school before when I don't have classes and I haven't tried it out that I miss a class or lost time in work or school just because of gambling. It still depends on the gambler on how he'll manage his gambling addiction. If it's already too much and coming to the point that you are losing your time for work or school due to it, that's something that needs emotional medication.
I don’t know about any country on this globe in which playing gambling is entertained. However, it is strictly banned for the students as it becomes an addiction very soon.

Also, I think you are lying that you haven’t missed your class or any other important activity due to gambling because if this is true, then answer me one thing that what you do when your match lasts long than you have expected. I don’t think you have guts to leave game.

You just live in the wrong environment, gambling never be a good habit for those people who didn't earn money yet by themselves, they tend to do it irresponsibly. No wonder they do crazy things that doesn't makes any sense like skipping something important for the sake of gambling. You should looking for a real help when it's happened.

yes i do, sometimes when i go to work i'm late because of gambling.
Only addicts are late from everything in their lives because they give gambling more importance than anything else and this makes them unaware about the responsibilities they have upon them as a member of one family. Due to this gambling, gamblers also become late from every place they are going to because they stop to play only one game at gambling spot but this one game changes into three or four.

Yes, most addicts are not time concious and they can easily loose their time at work or at whatever event and run to gamble because it takes a greater part of their lives and they can not live without. It's not limited to addicts alone but most gamblers tend to sneak in and out of work to gamble also.
And the problem is that it is difficult to tell if a person is addicted to gambling from the outside, you can tell someone is addicted to alcohol just by the smell of alcohol always lingering in that person all the time and by being drunk all the time but an addicted gambler looks completely normal and does not show any external signs of addiction.

I am often late from work due to gambling. Did you ever lose time from work or school due to gambling?   

Oh god, are you serious? How can this happen to you? I mean, why are you so addicted to do it? If i gamble, i do it at night, i would never be late for work just because i wanted to play a dice.

I am just being realistic, this is just what a normal person would do..

You can not leave your responsabilities only because you wanted to have fun and make a little profit from a bet (that you probably lost too)

You need to stop it.

Well addiction is the cause for sure. Why would anyone want to gamble so much to the point that you are already getting late for important stuff. Gambling should be a past time and nothing more, it is not something that should rule your world. No one should be so in to it that you lose time for anything else. That is clear signs of an addiction. If anyone is in this situation, the first thing you should do is admit you have an addiction, and then get help.

Yes, if we cannot stop gambling then maybe we will be responsible enough to avoid conflict of the things that should need to be priorities like schooling or even in work. Time management is very important if we wanna do multi tasking activity, so schooling or time of work must be first given priority than that of gambling or its better to avoid that if you think you cannot control your gambling habit.

Oh its never happen to me.
I keep my responsiblity be done before doing gambling.
I would never let my work be affected because of gambling.
Because gambling for me is just for fun, so I seperate it fro my real world.
Because I dont want to come to the point, that I already neglected my duty in my noble profession.

yes that losing time from my schooling due to gambling happened to me, and that happened because i am enjoying gamble and did not know already the time because of enjoyment and that time is i am winning so i did not expect that it is already late hour for my schooling. gamble is so addictive and risky.

yes i do, sometimes when i go to work i'm late because of gambling.
I have never gamble during my education because gambling is not good in my community and the elders will never let you to gamble. Therefore I have never wasted my money, time and schooling. In this day I gamble every little because I think that I should not waste my hard earn money in gambling because I am not fond of becoming rich in short time. I believe in hard work and struggle to become rich.
This should be the spirit towards being successful and getting rich. Most of the people who gamble wants to get it through a shortcut way to become rich, unfortunately majority of gamblers don't succeed and lose their money and time both in doing so. Students who gets involved in gambling I think they can't live a normal students life. For students it will be just like killing your career to become a gambler.
Most people do not really understand that there are no shortcuts to becoming rich, things are never easy, most of the people that are rich are not because they inherited money or their family was rich they created their fortune by working hard and being smarter than other people.

Only on small percentage for those people who are really rich because they do inherit it but on most cases people do become rich because of such work same as you said there are no shortcuts on life specially on becoming rich.Most people are hurrying up on becoming one and doing things already just like gambling.Yes it can give the possibilities but chances are really very very slim which if you do it desperately instead of becoming rich you would end up on breaking your own life. Dont compromise your priorities for the sake of gambling,its not really worth of.
