Do you think that gambling has any benefits? Yes I agree that there is one benefit of gambling, when you win big money in gambling, quit immediately and never come back to gambling. Start some respectable job or business and spend your time happily with your family. I don’t think that there are any other benefits of gambling, which are good for life.

No, that is not a benefit of gambling at all. There's a possibility that that might happen to you but it's not part of the gambling itself. Besides, the amount of people losing is far greater than the amount of people actually winning. Another thing that I have to point out is that why would you need to hit the jackpot from gambling before you can apply for a job? Last time I checked, they don't require money in order to accept you. They require experience and a degree. You can be a rich person but still be not qualified to a certain job in the same sense that you can be a poor person but still be qualified for a job.

With that being removed from the list of gambling benefits, gambling is left with zero benefit.

Benefits of gambling you guys say?  Yes!  If you have a nagging wife that you hate, you can gamble online at home to avoid her.  And if she wants to divorce your ass cos you gamble too much...  Just sign the papers and you get what's half of hers.  Full benefits achieved.  Lololol.

That might be made as a joke but I have to say that it's an immature choice. You can simply man up and talk to your wife and say that you're unhappy about your marriage instead of losing money from gambling just to create something that will break your relationship apart. What will you do if she was able to tolerate your gambling? Is it really worth the money and the stress when you could have divorced in a better manner had you only manned up instead?

Well, that is like a situation in a comedy movie that will be done by the MC. It is funny that people make gambling a time spending entertainment but I don't think it will be a good solution to your nagging wife or dissapointing life. I guess the only thing that is better for gambling is that people will be able to realize that earning money is not easy as betting your money into gambling that will win easy money.

The advantage of gambling will be less than the disadvantage of gambling itself because we risk our money in all the games we played without any guarantee to get it back or to recover the losses. We still can play gambling, but we cannot get any benefits from gambling except losing the money, so we need to careful to spend the money in the gambling games carefully.
You will have to risk in order to win something. You gain nothing if you are not willing to risk. And it is not true that you can not make any thing, that you will loose everything if you gamble. Gamble is something related to luck. If you are lucky and gamble responsibly, you can will be making something out of it. I have seen people win a lot of money and never ever came back. You just need to know when to stop.

In addition to making money, gambling can also train us to be able to control emotions well. We can also get new friends there who might be our relationship for business. But of course there is a bad impact from gambling, besides losing money we will also be trapped and addicted to continue gambling if we are not able to control emotions, even worse we will begin to owe to gamble. So we must be wiser to take the positive side of the gambling game.
If you gamble just for fun and not for making money then you will enjoy gambling and that is the only benefit of gambling that you visit a casino with your friends and family members. Benefit of having some enjoyment with your lovers and apart from this there is no other benefit of gambling. Gambling is a bad thing and the whole world admits that gambling is not good.
Right, we can not say "bad" if a person go to casino just for fun or getting social, but if we look the viewpoint of money, it could results badly like losing money or losing reputation afterwards.

We can make a limitation for using the money in gambling, so we don't have to lose much money, and we need always to think and remember that playing gambling is only for fun. We can choose between losing more money or we can having fun in the gambling games, and I think having fun is the benefits of gambling but maybe there will be the other benefits of gambling itself which we don't know.

Today evening, I was spending some free time by surfing various websites. Suddenly a website caught my attention which talks about the benefits of gambling. I was surprised because negative thoughts about gambling is so common, but positive thoughts are rare to find. So I went ahead and read the entire article. The article actually talks about the positive sides of gambling which I believe everyone should know and it made a lot of sense to me!

When we say gambling, it is easily judged and have a negativity impact in so many people. I am also a gambler. I like this thread because what you have said is true. But those things are not buried because of so many negative things regarding gambling. I hope this open the eyes of most people. It is not the gambling itself that is bad, it is the person that abbuse gambling.

Well it's gotten that reputation with how many lives that irresponsible gambling ruined. Families, careers, these are affected mostly in a negative way by addicts. That's why the positive effects are mostly overlooked.
It is good that you find a site which discusses the positive effects of gambling, but can you mention that benefits? Because I think that there are no benefits of gambling. Gambling is a worst thing in the world and in my life I have never seen a person who took any benefit from gambling. A person starts gambling, loses his money, lose respect in his community and finally commit suicide due to debts in gambling.
Do you think that gambling has any benefits? Yes I agree that there is one benefit of gambling, when you win big money in gambling, quit immediately and never come back to gambling. Start some respectable job or business and spend your time happily with your family. I don’t think that there are any other benefits of gambling, which are good for life.

I hope that it comes to your mind that people might be blinded by this benefits that you have mentioned which is not totally a benefit at all if it is causing trouble in exchange for that benefits to other people or Government. This benefits that you have mentioned are only working on those lucky person in gambling, what about those people who never win in gambling and losing most of the time they gamble?

Isn't it unfair to them? gambling is a game where the risk is much bigger that what you are expecting, it is not a game that anyone could play, it is much more than that.
The benefit at the end of it all is even much more related to the casinos and the government anyway but for the gamblers, they are just more like the donors in this scenario and a whole lot of gamblers do not know that.

The thing with gambling that has made a lot of people to become a victim of addiction is because they so much focus on the aspect where you can win a lot of money if you are damn lucky and then discard the aspect where you will have to realize that as much as winning can come into the show, losing can even come into the show with more rapid force than winning.

Gambling may have benefits for those it has benefits for, but generally for gamblers, except you are able to cart away with some huge amount of money by luck and realize how lucky you are to use it effectively well, then, that is when I would say it was beneficial to you.

Or you can simple call it bad if he has no experience whatsoever and still tries to beat the house.

Gambling can be entertainment when people using it for entertainment but when they are expecting to make profits from the gambling sites then it will be a problem for our life.Gambling has more problems than benefits just as you said gambling is for the lucky people if someone can't win in gambling then they will lose their capital money and also OP has much deeper form of benefits like it can make revenue for the governments but I don't think any real life casinos paying taxes for the income they have made.

I was surprised because negative thoughts about gambling is so common, but positive thoughts are rare to find. So I went ahead and read the entire article. The article actually talks about the positive sides of gambling which I believe everyone should know and it made a lot of sense to me!

The article lists 7 points as the benefits of gambling:
1. Gambling Stimulates Local Economies
2. Gambling Is a Form of Entertainment
3. Gambling Can Take Place in a Safe Environment
4. You Could Win
5. Gambling Contributes to Government Budgets
6. Gambling Creates New Forms of Revenue
7. Gambling is a Form of Game Play

The article is actually a tight slap on the popular belief that "gambling is harmful to the society". So I encourage everyone on this forum to read the article and understand it, especially the non-gamblers! Gambling is not a fools-heaven, it's just another business and an opportunity to the gamblers! Hope this article would clear your mind!

Article Link: https://www.benefitsof.org/what-are-the-benefits-of-gambling/
The wrong economy that drives gambling is legal, because gambling will benefit the country because gambling houses will pay the taxes already in use for any legal business. Not only profitable for state taxes, gambling also increases tourism

I think the economy of the country will grow because of the gambling owners pay the tax and I think the amount will bigger because the owners take a big profit too from the business. maybe we can see in Macau and las vegas which gambling is legal, many tourism come to that places just for playing gambling. but I think there will be many negative from the gambling that we should aware so we don't play gambling in every day and spend a big money on the games.
Yes, there are still also a lot of benefits of gambling and we cannot deny that fact, we can hit a jackpot in no time and we can be a millionaire that we didn't expect, but we also be careful because we must also know that it is still risky and we need to take some limitations for it.
That is true but we also cannot deny that there are more risk than the benefit in gambling, if you talk about hit a jackpot, it's only a very small chance to get that.

Gambling has some benefits, but there is a lot of propaganda out there that condemns it just because a few people get addicted to it, but to deny that there are some benefits is a mistake, if you play in a physical casino you'll find friendly people there and you can make new friends, sometimes you can even make business contacts by going to the casino, that is in fact a very common practice in my country where two businessman after making a deal go to the casino to celebrate, also if you like to make sports bets you'll soon understand that you will need an advanced knowledge of mathematics and probabilities to become a winner.
Yeah thats why I always mentioned that there are good influences and bad influences that are on gambling, it might get some bad effects when losing or becoming an addict and it will be bad for your finances, but there are some benefits that don't look, like getting friends, partners, or even business partners

Well it's gotten that reputation with how many lives that irresponsible gambling ruined. Families, careers, these are affected mostly in a negative way by addicts. That's why the positive effects are mostly overlooked.

Well I believed that in every situation/thing has its own benefits that is positive.

Due to gambling we forget why we enter in casino,  you bad vibes fades away because of people around you. You meet new set of people,  it helps you to become more strategic in playing.

I also think that if you are good in math you can think about the probabilities to use for some specific games like dice, cards etc  that will help you to win.
All your thoughts about gambling are false and there is no truth in it. Gambling itself is bad thing and when somebody become addicted of gambling he also becomes a bad person of a society. Most people of his community keep distance from him because of gambling addiction. In my view gambling is the mother of almost all crimes and you are depending gambling here.

Yes, some people can see the benefit but most will see gambling are evil and not worth to being fight for !

I just hope that they don't just "see" the benefit of gambling, they should be also feel and learn what can be done by Gambling in their lives. Gambling destroyed a lot of lives in the past, there will be in the near future and I hope people will be able to overcome those problems since not only themselves will be affected by that but also the people around him.
A lot of the lives destroyed by gambling to me are self-inflicted and should not in any way be put on gambling itself. People with their greedy and unrealistic mindset usually feel that gambling is a way to set them on the wealthy part and the question they always forget to ask is that. Where does that leave the owners of the casino or gambling platform ?

This is gambling and the earlier people started accepting that fact that there is nothing like winning in gambling except you are just very lucky which is rare to a very large extent, then the better it would be for them to have the right mindset when it comes to gambling or not even just gambling at all if they cannot control themselves.
I don’t think that there are any benefits of gambling. Many people committed suicides because of their debts in gambling. When they lose money and even everything in gambling and there is no source of overcoming these debts then they commit suicide. They are free but the problem is for their families. Now tell me what are the benefits of gambling?
In my opinion the topic should be the deficits of gambling, then people would give their comments about gambling deficits. Now I don’t understand what to tell about the benefits of gambling. There is only benefit of gambling and that is the end of life. When a gambler loses his money and depressed he commit suicide and get freedom from hardships of life.
