22nd April

112. There are these six dangers of being addicted to gambling. In winning one begets hatred, in losing one mourns the loss of wealth, one’s inheritance is squandered, one’s word is not accepted in court, one is avoided by both friends and officials, and one is not sought after for marriage because people say a gambler cannot support a wife.

D.III,184 (DN 31)
