Well for me gambling is not wrong if you are not addicted to it, but for some people these are some reasons:
- In spite of escalating losses, the person continues to gamble believing they will recuperate losses.
- When attempting to refrain from gambling, the person becomes restless or irritable.
But gambling is not a financial problem, but an emotional problem that has financial consequences. That is why you better not be addicted to it.
But that doesn't answer the question, you can get addicted to pretty much everything, that doesn't make that thing bad or good. You better not be addicted to anything. Gambling is fine, people always look at gambling like its one of the worst problems you can have but drugs are worse and they are just as legal.
