Yes, I’ve seen stories like that too. Gambling, especially online casinos, can ruin lives. People lose money, get into debt, and hurt their families. It’s really sad when someone with a good future goes down that road.
Very right, gambling has really destroyed most people lives in a way that they find it so difficult to amend.
That is why it's very advisable to always gamble responsibly, because through gambling, if one can't be able to control their emotions when things are not falling in line with them, they might make some decision without putting things into consideration and this acts might lead them in depression, frustration, which might hurt them and also hurt others around them.
So whatever one is doing, let it be moderate, gambling to make money, might lead to addiction but bearing it in mind that gambling is just for fun and also to know that its a matter of luck and not a do or die something.
