A well written and thoughtful article! Thanks for sharing.

It's been a while since I've read article on something like online gambling without feeling like the author was trying to proselytize.

Edit:

I appreciate the human perspective shared by the article, and get the feeling that OP offers a warning of the consequences of working in stigmatized fields. Ofc online gambling (and gambling in general tbh) is a terrible thing that ruins lives.
