destitute of gambling

Addressing a gambling addict whose relative brought him to the temple: Gambling is bad. No matter how much money you win, it will not last. Your entire family will be consumed by your addiction. Even a billion dollars will not last long in the hands of a gambler. A gambler's mind is consumed with the greed for more. Money won from gambling is impure. You may win at the beginning but your greed will cause you to lose more in the end. No matter how much money a gambler has, he will become destitute in the end. There is not a chance for wealth in gambling.
