I sometimes gamble with my bitcoins, don't worry I'm not wasting all of it to gamble away. Only a certain amount. I don't gamble on a daily basis, that would be a waste for a fact. Other than that I don't really use my bitcoins, if I find something that i want to buy on the internet and bitcoin payment is acceptable then I will pay with bitcoins.
Unlike you I never gamble using bitcoin. Because bitcoin is very important to me, because I use it in sending payments to my family who are in my home country, and they make a living from it. It makes things very easy, I have made lots of profit by using bitcoin for fund transfer, so it is very important.
