In regards to being a threat, I'd compare gambling to sugary drinks, such as Coca-Cola, for instance. Yes, it's a threat when you are overusing it, but, also, it can brighten up your life when used moderately. Should all people stay away from sugary beverages because it is very harmful for some of them? No. The same applies to gambling. But awareness should always be there. People must fully understand the risks.

Gambling is fun until you start gambling a lot of money. If you start doing that then this becomes a thread for your health and your relatives because you don't risk your own money but also your family's money.

If someone gambles with all his/her money without thinking about the risks, it means he/she is a stupid gambler. Every gambler needs good self-control to not doing a stupid thing. There are many cases that gamblers trapped in loan/debt due to weak self-control. Finally, he/she never wins the gambling unless got more and more loan/debt.

Then you need to have control over yourself because that will be the only way to prevent you from spending a lot of money. You can have fun in gambling, but you must remember that gambling can also become a threat when you can not limit yourself so you should know when enough is enough. We don't need to risk our money especially if that money is for our family, but the fact is some people cannot resist themselves in gambling and keep trying to playing gambling because they want to feel more winning.

Gambling could become a threat only if we don't know how to deal with it right. It was made for fun and entertainment but most people see it as a shortcut to getting rich and to being successful. If we'll not know how to control our emotions towards it, it will be the one to control us instead. It's just a matter of self-discipline because if we'll focus too much on gambling and if we'll rely our necessities on it, it will surely destroy us and it could also take away everything that we have.

AGREE It was made for fun and entertainment but most people see it as a shortcut to getting rich and to being successful.
I guess only few as when they experience losing, they'll not think of becoming rich in gambling. Most people IMO are just gamble to enjoy and winning is just bonus them. If we'll not know how to control our emotions towards it, it will be the one to control us instead. It's just a matter of self-discipline because if we'll focus too much on gambling and if we'll rely our necessities on it, it will surely destroy us and it could also take away everything that we have.
It should not be an IF since it's a must that everyone before they start gambling should be knowledgeable of the game and its risk, and they are matured enough in managing themselves.

Agree. If someone you love got already involved in with the money you lose then this could be a threat not just only for you but also for your family. They will be come obsessed to gamble more money they have. They must control themselves before the problem becomes bigger, and they can't manage themselves before can commit a crime.

gambling is a threat for people that doesn't have self-control, its fun for the people that only play to consume free time. Just always gamble what you can afford to lose, No one wins the house.
It is not just a threat for them. There are a lot of threats that gambling can do even to people who play it for fun. As long as they are gambling, it is a threat to them. No one knows what will happen but they can still end addicted to gambling. It is true, even if you play only for fun, you will still getting addicted. It is only a matter of time when you get addicted. But all gamblers will be the same in the end. Gambling is a threat due to its psychological effect it gives to a person, it makes a gambler to play deeper even how hard he tries to control himself. Not all of them though. We can't really say that all of the people that are gambling will be addicted to gambling. It is a threat to them since the possibility of them getting addicted to gambling is there as long as they are gambling. I know a lot of people that are gambling and I can say that there is a chance that they will not be addicted but it will not be the same to all of us . It simply is related to self-control. Those who have control over their greed and they know what amount of money actually they can spend on gambling are the ones who enjoy playing this game. Those who have sole objective of gambling to make money are the ones who often get addicted and frustrated. Nobody wants to lose money and as you said, we will feel frustrated if we don’t have money to gamble and recover losses. After losing a bet, people usually tend to gamble more with an urge of recovering losses whereas this actually further worsens the situation. Simply gamble for a limited time to avoid all this mess.

for other hardcore gamblers or those who consider gambling as an opportunity to earn some profit, I am sure they consider gambling as a threat but also a way of earning money. but basing in my own experience gambling is fun. for me as a casual gambler that has some extra pennies to waste. gambling is a form of hobby that gives me comfort and keeps my thoughts away from work that usually stresses me out and helps me clear my thought and continue my work after I finished gambling( I am a freelancer thus the reason why I can gamble anytime I want). but I can't say that other casual gamblers feel the same.

Gambling can easily be both threat and fun. It varies upon the person playing and how to take his gambling session in his life. Gambling is fun that's already given but only if you are winning, some gamblers when they lose they go on rage mode trying to recover their losses and this is where gambling becomes a threat. Gambling will just only be a threat if you get addicted to it and if you don't have self discipline, gambling is fun if you have total control about it and it is not ruining your life.

To be honest, not all of them are being addicted to gambling. I do also want to earn money from gambling, and again, to be honest, that is one of the purposes why I am gambling; all of us are dreaming of winning something from gambling. It really depends on the gambler himself since if he really is a responsible human being, he will never let himself be addicted to gambling, he knows when to stop and he knows that no matter what happens, gambling will never be a source of income and you are just having fun.

It's really is wishful thinking, thinking that you can make an income out of it and there lies the danger and become a threat when you keep on thinking that there is money to be made in gambling and the fun stop when you think that you can cheat the house and your win can extended if you play it right, which will prove wrong eventually.

The gambling funds should be separate from daily expenses. Even some gamblers live in overconfidence mood and they think feeding the family with X percent of the turnover amount shouldn't be a big deal for punters with a great experience. Risking the big amounts is another level of stupidity if there is no way back. Logic is not the only the controller of the whole process, being a human means the emotions affect all made decisions.

Based from your words, there are a lots of different opinions or self explanations regarding to this business. People who have such control and good understanding of this hobby can treat it out to be entertained and nothing else, they are willing to move forward after they've satisfied the needs inside them and forget about the results, while for some, treating this venue as source of income by using their skills also being considered.

Threat -for you if you treat Gambling as a Source of Income to earn more quick Money and also if you become addicted to gambling because you could lose all the money you have and also this will ruined your life because you can't control your self to gamble.
Fun- is when you treat Gambling as a time wasting and for fun only, If you have control to your self and know your limitations .

For me, it's both if you cannot treat it as fun all the time then there is a threat that it could become a vice and that vice is a big threat to your pocket and to your relationship with your family because you are going to spend more time and money just to keep up playing because it stopped being fun and you want to make money out of it.

So long as you keep your greed under control and don't start betting amounts you can't afford to lose, then gambling isn't a threat. In reality, it's only a threat for those with even very low will power, or extreme risk takers that don't know when to call it quits. As such, anybody who has either of these two personality types should probably avoid gambling, as this is an industry where self control is an absolute must. With that said, it might not be something that is entirely possible to control, since it appears to have a genetic basis: https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/10/191009131740.htm

It has happened a lot including my friends in my area playing gambling as the main breadwinner and wanting fast money with gambling profit, so what will happen they lose control of themselves so that their savings are used to play gambling he feels sorry after losing all of it. Fun- is when you treat Gambling as a time wasting and for fun only, If you have control to your self and know your limitations .
It's better to play gambling when there is free time and the most appropriate is the weekend where we are on vacation working.

It depends on the users or gambler itself me personally I don't find it as a threat and I consider it as fun, the excitement of every card, dice or sports result from time to time however if a person find the gambling as he's hope or a source of income this will become a threat since they will risk their money hoping on getting more and if they would lose they wanted to win it back again and win more.
While the other gamblers see the gambling as a place of entertainment and even though they lose they are in controlled of their money since all they want is the entertainment. If we lose, we lose and we accept it since we know the risk and we are ready to lose a certain amount of cryptocurrency or money.
