I'm sure there are some people who match the description you offer, but what evidence do we have that "It consumes them, until they are out of money, then it destroys them" or that they make up "a large proportion of their revenue" to the degree that the business model would fail without them? And could you not paint an equally disturbing picture about other industries and interests? Like gambling, drinking or people who eat bugs competitively? And should the presence of deeply troubled people scattered about different hobbies cause us to determine that businesses engaging with those hobbies are "evil"? I seriously do not think so.
