Greediness or Addiction -which one is more disastrous?

[Moreno233]

Well, I think the more disastrous one here is addiction. If someone is greedy, it only means he wants more, but if he doesn't have the means to get it, he will forget it, but in addiction, there is nothing you can do about it, because addiction goes straight to stay in your blood and becomes your behavior. Once you are addicted to something, whether it's good or bad, you will always want to be doing that particular thing ,and you will find it difficult to stop, and then it turns to be your behavior. Imagine someone having a gambling behavior, that means he cannot survive without it, so even if addiction and greed work hand in hand, I still prefer greed to addiction.

You hit the nail by the head because there is no basis for comparing greed and gambling addiction. Greed is just a one part of gambling addiction, the most significant one. I think greed is like the driving force for gambling addiction because if you remove great from a gambler, the zeal to persist in gambling after a loss will not be there. Although, some gambling addicts just derive joy gambling even though they are not winning, it has become a sort of hobby, something without which they feel incomplete. At this point, it begins to appear like it has no business with greed but on a broader note, it does have everything to do with greed.

Both, greediness and  addiction, are the hard parts of gambling. Time spent at casinos has a power to turn you around the circle, making the generous man to be stingy and addicted  one. I say this because it is what exactly happened with the friend of mine who, being a  talented gambler,  finally ended as a crook.

Re: Greediness or Addiction -which one is more disastrous?

Both are connected to each other.

Let's say a person is a greedy one, if he wins, he will continue to gamble and as he spends more time gambling, the higher the chances for him to get addicted into it. Being greedy will lead to the gambler getting addicted into it. A greedy person will always, and always gamble even he wins a huge amount already. A greedy person will always have a higher chance of getting addicted. Which one is more disastrous? None because both of them are disastrous. No one is what others called "a lesser evil" to both of them because at the end of the day, both of them will lead to huge losses to the gambler.

If you're greedy, it will lead you to huge losses at some point. If you're addicted, there will be a time that you will be losing a huge amount of money because you're spending too much time gambling, and luck isn't always on your side as always.

[traderethereum]

If applied here to a gambler I would say both seriously harm a gambler. Especially when a gambler gets himself addicted to gambling, he spends the important time of his life in gambling.
But if addiction is present in a gambler and it is later coupled with greed then the matter becomes more serious. A greedy gambler is the most dangerous because when he tries to stop himself from gambling, invisible greed will not let him stop gambling. So I can say in my opinion that greed causes more harm to a gambler than addiction, it would be wrong to say only for a gambler it causes serious harm to all people.

It is clear harm for a gambler if they becomes greediness or addiction to gambling because they only lose their money and don't have a big chance to wins. Those people who becomes addiction will spends much time to playing gambling but they don't see how much money they use and lose in gambling.
They feels that they getting close with their wins but that is not right because when they becomes addiction, wins or lose is not important for them. They only wants to playing gambling more and more without thinks about the money they use.
Maybe we already feels that before so when we realizes about that, we must trying to reduce our gambling no matters if that is hard for us. We must stay away from greediness and addiction so we can enjoy playing gambling as an entertainment and not for trying to wins.

Greed and addiction is really that connected to each other on which simply means that on the moment that you do find yourself having such emotions on the moment that you do play then it would really be always considered to be that a negative thing and  this is something that you should really be avoiding in the first place on where you would really be needing up for you to have that kind of approach when it comes to gambling which is really just that for the sake of fun. You cant really just that make yourself having that kind of delusional approach towards gambling because once that addiction would really be that happened into us then we would really be having a hard time on getting out or simply trying out to quit. This is why you should really be that sensible on the actions and decisions you are making
and dont make yourself that being too hopeful to make yourself a winner all the time.

The most common type of gambling addiction is the one with greediness. That is why the addicted person will be losing huge amount of money to the extent they may not have money again but start to borrow.

But addiction can also be that the gambler is not really wasting money on gambling but gambling is really taking his time. But this type of addiction is mostly not possible.

Most addicted gamblers are greedy.

Precisely, some person's gamble in order to gain more or make more money than the one they already have,and  that attitude  can be translated to be a form of greed.Normally,greed and addiction have kind of connection between them naturally, you'll notice these features occuring around you at intervals.
The greed that comes from gambling just tries to make you very reckless and overwhelmed with your addictions towards gambling.
Gambling,Addiction to gambling is a strong issue to tackle.You started gambling to realize that your now addicted;in essence, greed is what makes you to gamble,whereas,the fear of not having enough and also wanting more.
Human beings are naturally greedy and the inability to fix the emotional and mental inputs or responsibility is mostly the exhausting part  altogether.

[bettercrypto]

You will not have an addiction to gambling if you do not have the character of being greedy. Because of my understanding, greediness is what drives a gambler to become an addicted gambler; these are the facts that I only know.

I don't know about others, but when you become addicted to gambling, addiction can lead to many consequences, one of which is that you can commit crime, suicide, family destruction, and self-destruction.

On the moment that you are already that becomes too desperate when it comes on making money with gambling then this is where things turns out to be shit situation on the time that you are already spending up too much money and becomes that impulsive on the games that you are playing. Speaking about disastrous then both could really be disastrous specially on greed which might lead into addiction later on. Actually they are really that just in connection in between each other because on the time not only greed but also desperation,chasing up loses or any other similar behavior will really be causing up that having no control with your emotion on which on the time that it will really be that evident then you would really be having that potential or likely situation on which you might be ending up on having that impulsive reactions.

The key on here is that you shouldnt really be that letting yourself getting addicted with gambling nad never ever make those kind of intents and hopes that you could really be positively be ending up profitable
with gambling because too much expecations would really be the the recipe for addiction. This is why its really that important that you should be having that kind of control of emotions and risks management
when you do play gambling or simply just that play for fun then you wont really be ending up with any possible unfortunate conditions.

[Fortify]

Well, I believe that both Greediness and Gambling Addiction make our lives terrible. I was thinking about which one of the two reasons causes more disastrous in our life both in terms of mental health and finances.

It would be the base of experience or just purely an opinion but for me, Greediness is something that would really make us cripple.
"I want to bet more and more in order to win more. I will sell my properties so I can bet huge. " Greediness mindset keeps on the winning side, not satisfaction.

But addiction is a little disastrous, why? Because they can be satisfied with betting a small amount, at least they can gamble.

However, both can possibly happen in our lives when we can't control our gambling habit anymore. I prefer not the two but in this situation, I prefer to be just addicted rather than be greedy. 

Gamble Responsibly...

I think they both commonly go hand in hand, one in almost indistinguishable from the other, but it is theoretically possible to be greedy without being addicted. Addiction naturally means taking something to the extremes and doing is excessively, which eventually becomes habitual and compulsive. That is very damaging to a persons psychology, often leaving them feeling like they have lost control in life which can result in them making poor decisions in many other aspects of life as well. It is somewhat natural to try and be greedy, almost like an inbuilt human instinct to feast while there is plenty - if you can find shortcuts in life that are advantageous to you then many people would take those opportunities.

Just like, you will not be greedy if you do not have addiction, because the nature of addiction does not mean he is greedy, it's just that he cannot be separated from gambling, there is another thing that is most influential why someone can be addicted.

On the other hand addiction will not be a problem if you can control your own addiction, addiction will not be a problem if you are able to finance it, this makes sense, but because many people are unable to control diir and are unable to finance their addiction to the violations that they should not do it.

The tooth are not good for us that are gamblers because they have serious effects on every gamblers and can cause serious losses with time when one is not serious or focus on ways to become a better gambler.Greed can cause loses for us if we are not observant about every of our steps. But I think greediness most time can lead to addiction when we are always trying every attempt to make moeny from gambling. Our exposure to gambling everyday can cause addiction but greediness is beneath us  and can even cause more harm when it is coupled with greed.

There are professional players who have managed to channel their addiction in the right direction. The thing is that they started out as regular losers, but gradually they learned and progressed and eventually became professionals. Very few can achieve this, and then withstand this stress on a regular basis, as a result, there will be only a few who can win in games where luck does not play the main role, mainly against other players. It is like natural selection and not everyone can win, because one player will always play better than another and this is a fact.

Totally disastrous specially if your judgment making is already that not good because you are already being clouded with greed or simply with addiction which do all sums up
on the emotion and thinking that you do have on the moment or time that you do get involved with gambling. Just like on what you have said that you wont be facing up any problem
if you are really just that playing gambling for the sake of fun. You wont really be having that kind of emotion on trying to chase up some wins and will really be thinking that getting
which it.Usually gamblers will be thinking about winning up directly without having to realize on what are the potential situation that they might faced since gambling will really be
that pertaining about winning and losing on which losing is in high probability specially on longer run condition. It is really that built for the sake of fun and entertainment but people do make
this as their main source and this what makes that really might resulting into that huge impact in overall specially when things turns out to be that disastrous.

Gambling will really be that messing up your life with if you dont know on how to assess in regarding into the actions that you are taking.If you do make yourself that too delusional or
being that too positive towards gambling then it will really be better that having to re-assess and rethink on what are the probabilities that could happen if you would continue this way.

Greed and addiction are different, someone who is addicted to gambling may show that they have greedy attitude but in reality it is not greed but more like desire to get satisfaction and pleasure in their heart.
On the other hand, someone who always has greedy attitude can be much more likely to become an addict because people like this usually have fairly high intensity of gambling, we will find it difficult to be able to really determine what is the most dangerous between the two because the impact of all that depends on how each gambler himself.

I ask little, how is addiction not dangerous when someone can control their addiction? an addict is someone who cannot control themselves and of course people like this will not be able to control their addiction because if they could then they would not be addicts.

Yes, that is why we must have a control for ourselves so we can control our greed and we will not get addicted to gambling. That will related to with our emotion because when the greed becomes bigger, our emotion will gets the effect.
The first time we will feel from gambling is the increases of the emotion and then our greediness which can effect to the will to continue playing gambling. If we can not hold ourselves, that will lead us to get addicted to gambling for a long term.
We must learn about controlling ourselves to prevents the addiction and can control ourselves without having a difficulty.

[viljy]

Greed can lead to gambling addiction, but it's not necessary. Greed in itself is not as harmful as gambling addiction. Because gambling addiction is no longer related to the thirst for profit, it is an emotional stress that is relieved only by playing. Regardless of the outcome of the game, then comes the emotional devastation (if you win, then a little later). Then the emotional tension builds up again and everything repeats itself. If greed is a vice, then gambling addiction is a serious disease that is very difficult to cure.

Basically it is different but the correlation and relevance have a connection, it is just a word game that must be seen with a different mind.

If you have ever seen coffee and cigarette addicts, they do not always smoke and drink coffee and only do it at certain times with a schedule, such as morning, afternoon and evening, the other side they can not stop doing it if in one day they do not do it, because they are addicted to it, but the good side with his addiction he can set a time to drink coffee or smoke, if someone who has a gambling addiction applies a principle like this, maybe their gambling will be more regular even though they can not get away from gambling every day.

Gambling consumes your time and money so if you still bet on gambling after knowing these things then it is a sign of addiction. In fact, people become addicted to gambling because of greed. When you see people around you making a lot of money from gambling, you will develop greed. Then you will be excited to bet on gambling even if you don't have money, you want to borrow money and place gambling bets. You will have addiction to earn money and want to become rich due to which you will indulge in gambling. So most gamblers become addicted to gambling due to greed.

Greed is not only in gambling as I have seen in real life even people who had a lot of things and they were very rich yet I have known a wife of a super rich CEO saying to her husband (as I worked for them some years) that I cannot stand that a friend of ours has done the furniture of the house better than us and things like that showing that greed is deep installed in our DNA and is very difficult to get rid of. This in gambling of course gets multiplied even more as the desire to become rich is even more higher than for normal things and as such greediness leads to addiction which makes them both disastrous and this is very hard to fight when you are gambling, the feeling and desire needing to win more and to become rich, that is catastrophic for one person if the person believes he can make money through gambling cause in the long run no one can.

[Crypto Library]

In fact, the two things that you have mentioned, these two things can never be observed separately in a gambler, these two things can be observed in a gambler in conjunction with each other. Everyone says gambling addiction is bad and horrible for a person but I think what is worse is the greed gambling addiction is a gambler because of this greed.
When people gamble, if the issue of greed sits on them, then it will be seen in the future that they will become addicted to gambling due to greed. And people don't just gamble because of greed, but greed is a big reason for the downfall of people in every case.
