Well OP so far as you're taking responsibility for your actions and inactions, you put food on your table, clothes yourself and your family, provide a home of your own I don't really think it is necessary to listen to people's opinion about how you choose to live your life. In other words, the person is indirectly telling you to gamble responsibly because he has seen some persons that became wayward as a result of playing gamble though some persons see gambling as a game for wayward people but it's really because of people that don't gamble responsibly that made it looked as if gambling is bad if not Inasmuch as you can be able to meet up your daily obligations despite being a gambler I think no body will see you as part of the wayward gamblers. However, anybody's opinion doesn't really matter on how you choose to live your life, but let it be that you live a life that you will not be measured together with people that can't add value to their own lives.

A good opinion you have here, in everything we do our individual decision surpass everything, but it must matter to people that are concerned about you how you go about your life, it is normal for people to give us advise but what's matters is how authentic and helpful such advise is, it is known by many that gambling is addictive and it has the power to change people from their normal self, even though people opinion doesn't count in your life, you should also be concerned about what you do that triggers advise from extra body.
As for me if I am gambling irresponsibly I will definitely care about what people say about my gambling habit, there is a saying that mad people doesn't have shame but their relatives do, apart from gambling if I do something that doesn't portray good about me despite they money I make through such, I will have to rethink about it.

If you started thinking of what people do say about gambling I don't think that you will be able to participate in gambling any longer so I know very well that gambling have to do with understanding and if you don't know the secret of gambling you will not be able to gamble very well so that is why I do like people to think on their own and know the application of gambling and they also advantages of gambling by their selves
Totally correct, things can be very good , it is better that when we do things well we like them because we enjoy them, and to do what makes us generate happiness, and if the casino and gambling are our best option to have fun Well, we have to do it, no matter what People say, we should Always do what we like, as long as it does not hurt anyone, as long as we are Doing things well within the normal parameters, because I believe that it does not hurt anyone in fact, others should not care what we do with our own money.
Actually, people mostly do care about what we do which is what I don't like but nothing can be done about that. Society will always have a judgment about what you do or what you are involved in, so if you are gambling, they will judge you based on that without trying to know or understand what your motive is behind it.

So, those who gamble whether for financial gains or entertainment purposes, society see them as gamblers, and in most societies, gambling isn't considered to be a good thing because they think it is addictive and anyone involved in it is a gambling addict and they are irresponsible people.

We might be gambling for fun and entertainment, but it's difficult to make others understand this, most of the time.

I think it's not about the development of the country we live in, but about the fact that in any country there are people who are ready to spend their time not on something useful, but on discussing other people. Such people are mostly losers, so there is no sense in following their recommendations or living the way they imagine it. Life is given once and you should live it the way you want to live it, not the way others want you to live it.

Exactly. I like the conclusion of your statement because that's an honest fact. We only have life and should live it to our satisfaction, not based on what other people gossip about in our name and expect us to be the way they want, and perhaps it's only jobless people who end up discussing other things when it's not their business. 

But realistically, that's how life is. People must always talk about something they don't like about you, but what matters is what you think about your lifestyle. Gambling is not a bad activity, and as long as one is gambling responsibly, I don't think it should be a problem for anyone. 

Yes but sometimes there are people who are easily influenced by whatever is said by others that makes them feel uncomfortable or disturbed so they might try to do something that is suggested by others even though it is not in accordance with their wishes, But I think on the other hand there is nothing wrong with filtering some of the criticism that is thrown by others because logically not everyone really says something that aims to criticize you, it cannot be denied that out of 10 people who comment there may be 3 or more people who care enough about you to try to tell you to do something that is for your own good.

Basically it's true as you said above that this is life where there are always people who don't really like us and they may always find fault with us, but as I said above because we are talking about the context of gambling then I don't think everyone will really blaspheme you, There is a possibility that some of them care about your safety because after all gambling always has the possibility of bad effects that can occur at any time, so I think there is nothing wrong with filtering the ideas they throw at you by identifying their criticism, if for example the criticism contains concern then I think there is nothing wrong with being reconsidered.

This is not a question to ask because in this life,if you are somebody that is always been scared of what people say about you,I don't think you can ever do anything your mind says you should do.Therefore,I know people see gamblers as people who won't become anything,and people who are wasting money,but I don't have to look at that because those same people that were insulting you for gambling are the same people that will celebrate you for winning big if you should eventually win big through gambling.It very good that we keep on trying because nobody knows where the luck will come from.

People should care nothing about our activities as long as we are not giving  them trouble about our gambling activities , because it is our time , money and life that is in risk and spending .
though at some chances we are giving consent to our love ones so they can support nor advise us whenever we have troubles or we are in success ,that is the importance of other people but in totality ? idon't care about what they say to me.
People may care about us if we make a wrong move, but it's still all us who bear it and other people can only advise us, perhaps with the pretense of caring, but if we feel that we are still within safe limits then other people's comments don't need to be paid attention to. the most important thing is that we don't harm them or our gambling is still normal and we don't experience addiction or anything, if they feel uncomfortable with the gambling we do they can avoid us without needing to see or pay attention to us, because gambling is everyone's right to play want to do it and usually they use their cellphones which can gamble anywhere with easier access.

Other people's comments sometimes make us feel uncomfortable. They don't know us well or don't know anything about the gambling we experience but they say as if they understand our situation. Even though there are many people who don't care about other people's lives because their own lives are more complicated and choose to remain silent about it other people, so why should we care about other people's words that don't give us any benefit.
I don't care about what other people say about me because I am gambling. This is because I gamble responsible and I don't use my gambling activities to disturb anyone's peace. One thing that I have noticed is that whatever you do in life, people must always talk. If you watch out, sometimes the people that are saying all these because you are gambling, are people that you are better than. This is why I just keep on wondering why would you think I will become useless because I am gambling.

This has always happened, it is just that with social media becoming as popular as it is right now, not only you have people of your local community making comments and negative remarks behind your back, now you could have people all over the world doing the same, so many people are succumbing to social pressure and doing what other people think they should do, and this is a recipe for unhappiness, as once people realize they have been avoiding doing the things they like just because of what other people are saying, they may realize and regret they are not able to do them anymore.

You know, man, there are a lot of unhealthy behaviors and activities that are being exhibited by different individuals in society today, and some of those activities are high rates of scams, theft in broad daylight, corruption, etc. Also there are some economic problems that people should be talking about like the high inflation rate, people should be talking about things that are really more concerning and not just the common gambling lifestyle of someone. Although I cannot deny the fact that the gambling lifestyle of some people is so concerning due to the threat it can pose to other people's wellbeing, it's not true in all cases. For someone who just has a normal gambling lifestyle, it has nothing to do with those who will just keep gossiping and expecting another person to stop gambling due to their own beliefs about gambling.

Nowadays only in not so well developed countries people like to talk about each other life,in people where life is rushing and is very fast paced in general no one has time to deal with what you are doing or with what activity you are spending your time.Of course in the offline casinos in any country people will talk,look at that person going to the casino and losing money and we cannot stop this general judgement against gamblers,this is passed on by generations to generations.I mean in a country not really fast paced like the one where I live,people invade your privacy and ask you things that they shouldn't like coming near you and trying to see what are you doing with your phone,making you at risk even when you do online gambling.

In order not to worry about what people will say or what they will think about the fact that you are passionate about gambling, just try to make sure that they don’t find out about it. Don’t tell anyone about this and don’t play in someone’s presence, I think it’s not that difficult to do. This applies to those who may be concerned about someone's opinion regarding what they do. Personally, this doesn’t bother me at all, it’s my personal business, I do what I see fit, and I also don’t meddle in other people’s affairs.

Well that's right, the point is to take the decision or action to hide involvement in gambling from the eyes of others, because only then will you be able to avoid some criticism or even ridicule that can disturb your peace and I agree with you that this is not difficult for anyone to do.

But sometimes keeping involvement in gambling a secret can be difficult to do if they are a fairly arrogant type of person where the scenario is usually they are very eager to announce or tell others that they managed to win a big win which of course indirectly this action can make other people know and maybe these other people can spread this information to other people which over time the people who are there might find out that you are a gambler, but in the end it depends on the person too.

It's common amongst unexposed people in terms of lifestyle. They are people who grew up with this thoughts and it's not their first time hearing or seeing people talk down on gamblers. They easily conclude that gamblers are jobless because that is what they think. However, gambling is a vast topic and a lot of people who don't spend time trying to know about gambling and gamblers wouldn't learn anything meaningful about gambling.

So when with such people it's right to avoid their thoughts or try to change it if possible. With the institution of the online casino, such criticism on gamblers reduced. Yet, some die hard critics still go ahead to spy people's screen to know if they're gambling. Wouldn't mind what people say, but sometimes it feels sad to hear how backwards in thoughts people can be regarding gambling. There are lots of factors which have made people to think low of gamblers, but it's not necessary to allow those hearsays get to us.

Greetings everyone and happy new year all!

Okay, today I was actually out for a little business and it happens that I almost spent all my time wasted without me even having a smooth deal, but along the line I have few games that I have placed a bet and was wanting to view my games from my phone since gambling is now mobile, what I meant by mobile is that you can access your account at any place provided that you have an internet connectivity you will login to monitor your matches.

So when I logged in, someone close to me easily peep from my left hand side and noticed that I just opened my account monitoring my games, at this point what he said is "ahh you don join dem"? Meaning you have also belong to the groups of people that gambles?

On a lighter note, I just smile and asked him if there is anything wrong while gambling or while monitoring my games and he said nothing but just that few people he knew that are gambling almost turned useless.

This now triggered me to come ask here whether you cares about what people says or sees you as when gambling, I know there are people who don't know you from time or who doesn't believe that you are a gambler and if it happens that you came across such people and their reaction towards you goes other way round would you care about it or you just totally ignore them?

Let's discuss amicably
Last thing you should really worry about is the opinion of the people that are around you. Not unless they are giving you sound advice that is. Here's the breakdown. You have people around you telling you shit that you shouldn't listen to, like people urging you to play more, or to make more bets, or perhaps to give them a share of your winnings. But on the other hand, people closest to you telling you to be more responsible when you're gambling, to learn more how to budget and make sure that you're able to make the most out of the wins that you're able to bag throughout your gambling session, those are just some of the shit that you really have to pay heed to.

The thing is that you need to filter out the people you pay mind to, against those that you know yourself you have to avoid. Soon as you're able to do that, what you'll end up with is a circle of trusted people that you know will give you top-tier advice and would allow you to be very efficient and smarter with your gambling journey.

I dont believe people who say that they dont care what other think about them. It is always nice to have a positive image and keep it. But, if people will try to judge me only by gambling hobby, I would try to persuade them that gambling is not the only think I do in my life. If they say that I am doing something bad, or will end broke, then fine, they have that vision, I have different. It not that I really care that much or dont care at all. But I will do my best to make them judge me only by my deeds, my success, but not what I do in general.
You will persuade them that gambling is not the only thing you do in life? That will be tough. People today are too judgmental. Once they see a speck of error, mistake, dirt, or whatever they can use that is against one person then they will gossip it until something more is added. It's better to just keep gambling a secret.

I have a different opinion when it comes to this, I don't really care what they will tell. Literally. I am not living so that they can see good in me, I want them to see just who I am. If they think I am evil just because I am gambling then it's their problem, not mine. That just means their understanding is too shallow and their judgment is so one-sided that they won't even try to ask a person about it. Well, we have different approaches in our life, if it's my relative or a family member then I might explain it, but to a stranger or just a neighbor, no way I would explain it.

Normally, people will always talk about other people's habits, whether it directly affects them or not, so it shouldn't be of much concern to a gambler when people talk about their habits or their participation in gambling, well except my gambling habits is a problem to me or to them and is either affecting them directly or indirectly.
But as long as I know that I keep my gambling habits in check and I try to be as responsible as I can be in my gambling, then what others say or thing shouldn't be of importance and concern to me.

Sometimes someone can actually dish out some harmless and constructive criticism out of concern, this often comes from concerned friends and family members who already are fully aware of the dangers associated with gambling.
In a situation like this, it's important to reassure them and make them understand that you're fully aware of the risks associated with gambling and that you're only doing it for fun. Because one shouldn't discard all criticism, there are some that coupd actually be helpful to you.

That's you my friend, and me, I do not care about what people view or say about me regarding gambling and any other things else. This is because I live my life the way I want to live it and above all, everything is positive for me in such a way that I am emulateable. But can many other people beat their chests on that? That is the issue. If you are responsible in gambling and you have a good life, people will never look down or talk down on you no matter what, they will even want to associate with you and respect you. But the same thing cannot be said of an irresponsible gambler because such has created that view for himself, so it is better he either change his ways or gamble in hiding, otherwise, he has given people a pass mark over him.

After all, what people could be saying about him is to warrant a change and the earlier the gambler changes, the better. Also, in some localities where females are widely respected and known for things afar from gambling, I think women should respect that so that they do not have this kind of odd feeling, this is unless she is shameless.
Though "live free or die trying" sounds appealing, ethical gambling is about strategy, not willpower. Like investing, it's risk management. Every bet is calculated, weighing chances and outcomes. It's more about taking responsibility for your actions than morality. Smart decision-makers (not just gamblers) are respected. They operate around luck, not just with it. Changing your strategy is clever, not weak. Why keep playing a failing game? Adapt, evolve. That is respected more than someone engaged in a negative pattern. Forget the preconceptions about women gamblers. Master your space and play honestly. Change the rules, not just play by them. Maybe change the entire game

I should not care if anyone says anything about my gambling because my time, my money, everything is mine. But since gambling is a bad addiction, if someone discusses my gambling activities too much, then my weight in the society will decrease and I will be considered as a bad person in the eyes of the society. sometimes one should care about other's discussion to save one's own respect. so sometime i care about this

Totally agree with your opinion, activities that will make us feel happy and happy, we should do them because it is an opportunity for us to entertain ourselves.
Many people vent their feelings of sadness in their lives by gambling and I have also seen many people who gamble with the aim of entertaining themselves and when they win they consider the win to be an additional bonus to their sense of enjoyment.
However, there are also people who say that gambling is just a very detrimental activity because the impact is so terrible, yes, I think that people who say that are just taking the negative side, even though if we gamble we still maintain normal limits in playing the possible sides. The negative won't look as bad as they say.
By drawing the conclusion above, let people judge for themselves regarding views on gambling, the most important thing is that we gamble according to what we want and are entertained there without any coercion from other people and always maintain good control and always be careful.
