The casino's interests come first in the design of the gambling system, not the players'. Casinos are huge, luxurious buildings for a reason, and it has nothing to do with how generously they pay out. Its honestly stupid of you to think that gambling addiction can lead to financial independence. Self-control? Yes, that is necessary. However, self-control may not be sufficient if the system is biased against you. Are we prepared to allow ourselves to be exploited by a sector of the economy that profits from our failures? We must consider this more carefully and carefully.
You said it right. We cannot generate financial independence from gambling. We can only restrain it with self-control so that we don't sink into gambling, especially if many people have experienced it. We have to be more careful so that we don't experience the same thing. And if we don't want our relationships with the people around us to suffer, we must be able to use gambling well and only treat gambling as entertainment and nothing more. This way, we can still interact with people well and enjoy gambling as usual.

Yes, Gambling addiction has strained a lot of relationships through financial instabilities emotional turmoil, social isolation, and family problems. Gambling which was meant to be a popular kind of entertainment for many and was designed to provide a temporary escape from everyday life and also help one to be more observant mentally task your brain and it is also good for your mental brain. When it becomes an addiction it causes financial strain the strain can manifest in various ways including the loss of shared savings, debt accumulation, and financial secrecy which may lead to strained communication between partners. This communication breakdown can prevent couples, friends, and associates from working together.
Gambling is an activity where the results can go either hand. The stake at which people gamble is what drives them insane given the fact that real money is involved in this venture. Sure, a person may feel extremely satisfied and happy if they win a significant amount of money; but the stress and negativity of losing is what makes this habit dangerous compared to any other habits in this world.
The cycle of gambling is a difficult act to remove especially if you are already deep on it. A person may feel obliged to recover their losses by gambling again but this puts them in a worse position in the long run.
I just hope that when people gamble, they have the means of allocating only a designated portion of their income/savings to prevent any over spending on their part.
Or simply say that "IF THERE"S SMOKE, THEN THERE'S FIRE" kind of line on which keeping up secrets would definitely be putting you in harm on the time that your wife or your family would be finding out that you
Maybe the proverb you mean is "if there is smoke there is fire" which means that when we do everything we do, there will definitely be a consequence that we will receive. And the consequences are good or bad, it depends on what you do and keeping your bad behavior in gambling a secret is a bad thing and will have bad consequences for yourself.
Quote from: Lanatsa
are involved with some gambling activities but reactions would really be something that would be depending because if you have just done your role well as a family man or being father without making them
suffer in terms of living then they wont really be making out such reaction but if you are really that making out some significant impact then expect pointing out fingers and blaming time would really be next in line.
This is why its never been that good to consider on keeping up secrets because you would really be finding yourself on possible trouble if you cant really be able to make those reasoning.
This is what i dont really like on keeping secrets specially into my wife because sooner or later you would really be caught no matter what, plus im not really that kind of person who do really love on hiding
things from my wife and its really just that risky to do so.

Running away from existing problems and continuing to try to cover them up, this will never solve the problem and this will only complicate the situation later. Maybe you could keep this a secret from other people, such as neighbors, friends or new people you know with the aim of maintaining other people's honor and trust in you. But not towards your partner, because when you are married, your responsibility is not yourself, but someone else's child whom you asked to be your wife and your responsibility. So behave wisely when gambling and don't let the gambling you do have bad consequences and have a negative impact on yourself, especially your family and partner.
What affects our relationship is not gambling, but the addiction in it, ..
If addiction has a negative effect, then the impact on our relationship is also negative. But let's look at it from another perspective. Why do we always assume that when a person is addicted to gambling, they are losing more money than they can afford to lose? What if it's the other way around? What if a person is addicted because they are winning and have achieved financial freedom through gambling?
Isn't it considered an addiction as well when you keep gambling because you are winning?
Gambling addiction can ruin lots of relationships especially if it includes debt, lies and false promises just to pursue gambling. We all know how gambling addiction affects a person and his mentality. There will be times that he wouldn't care about how his decisions will affect the people around him which will definitely affect good relationships.
As for me, if a person is giving in to his urges without proper control, he will disregard the feelings of others and it's a reason to break bond and relationship. It's something that we should be careful about. If we could feel that we're already disregarding how our decisions may affect others, we might be falling into gambling addiction.

Indeed, it's just a proportional effect when you have an addiction. It will also influence your connection with your loved ones the same way.
Regarding addiction having a positive effect such as attaining wealth in the process, for me, yes it's still considered as an addiction, but in a healthy way. Although I wouldn't really call it as an addiction, rather a passion because they do it with ease and it has a good outcome for them. This is because they know how to control their betting and plays, not going overboard to becoming bankrupt just for the sake of chasing winnings, rather making an effort to earn more profit without sacrificing their current earnings. They are strategic and smart like that.
I can agree with, gambling influence you and the people around you so we need to manage it in order for us not to be addicted so hard . But for me if you say addiction it is to the extent that you are being too much addicted that will come to the point that you slowly getting annoyed easily and become so much frustrated because you want to earn more so you can play more.Regarding addiction having a positive effect such as attaining wealth in the process, for me, yes it's still considered as an addiction, but in a healthy way.

When you talk about financial freedom, gambling is never and can never be a source for anyone to achieve financial freedom.
Gambling will damage your finances, not create financial freedom. Casinos are not a place to make money, so there will never be financial freedom in the world of gambling, as far as I know it will lead to mountains of debt. Can be sure that family and those closest will be the first to ask for a loan, which is where family relationships and friendships will be damaged because of gambling.

Undoubtedly, there are gamblers who are very good in predicting the outcome of games which helps them to know which game to bet on and when best to place their bets
Yes, I also know there are people like that, but often they are too greedy and double their bet on the next bet, so that once they make a prediction mistake, their money will run out.

Undoubtedly, there are gamblers who are very good in predicting the outcome of games which helps them to know which game to bet on and when best to place their bets but once the person starts to see it as a main source of income, he automatically becomes an addict which will surely gonna affect his relationship with his loved ones.
There are different types of people in gambling, each of whom has a different purpose. Some people use gambling only to have a good time while others try to gain financially. But if the gambler's gambling habit turns into an addiction, then its effects will be everywhere. Be it a family member friend or relative. Gambling will have no effect if you engage in gambling with an attitude that there is a high chance of losing. But most of the time gamblers have different opinions. An addicted gambler is always an untrustworthy person in the eyes of others.
that's because the addiction also involves other people. and they feel disadvantaged by the addiction that gamblers experience. However, we have to accept that gambling has quite an addictive impact on beginners. It all depends on how the gambler manages to exercise control so as not to involve anyone as much as possible.
I believe more people will be addicted to gambling than those who can really control it. When you have better finances, your gambling activities may not harm the people you come into contact with.

Let's skip the process though as we know how successful gamblers do, but as I research now I find that my understanding was wrong.

A gambling addiction is when someone is obsessed with gambling despite the negative consequences.
I'm talking about positive outcome, so I was wrong.

gambling cannot possibly affect social life but gambling addiction can really disrupt our social life, - if you are addicted to gambling you will definitely beg your friends to borrow money and will never return it,
- if you are addicted to gambling you will definitely be at odds with your partner because You spend most of your time gambling,
- if you are addicted to gambling, all you can think about is money and your desire to commit a crime is really big,
so the problem here is not gambling but gambling addiction.
What affects our relationship is not gambling, but the addiction in it, how often have we appear to be without a relationship, but when we are gambling as an addicted type then it separate us from the close ties we have with those around us, this is talking more of our personalities, what are the constituents of what we were being made of, are good are be able to succeed in controlling the way we gamble such that others don't see the negative influence in it manifesting over our lives.
There are some countries that banned gambling. Yet most rich and well-developed countries in the world allowed gambling. The most livable countries in the world also allowed gambling.
Gambling should not affect relationships because what's the big deal when we're just having fun within our limits? Unless someone is paranoid or it has something to do with beliefs. What affects relationships are addictions. Addiction is a disorder so everything that is too much is a disorder and is not healthy not just within ourselves but also in our relationships. Addiction to the internet, liquor, food, computer and mobile games, sports, sex, attention, gambling, and many more. But isn't it obvious that addiction affects relationships?

It's the gambler's fault when he does it and then every relationship that he's got and responsibilities that he should sustain are also failing. With that, better to stop and not gamble anymore if things are not doing well for you. It's not just going to work together but at the same time that might break ties from the people that are involved and affected by how irresponsible you are as a gambler.
The point is that according to the facts that occur, gambling has indeed harmed many people, the impact is not only on their own finances but as we discuss this, namely to every relationship with the people closest to us such as maybe a girlfriend or closest friend and even family itself can really happen. The best way is if you can better stop, anyway this is pointless, the victory you always expect never comes, and even if it comes maybe only once out of a hundred tries, and of course if you count it more your losses than the victory. But basically it won't be that easy buddy, quitting gambling is very difficult, maybe some people will say it's easy, and I say the people who say that are those who have never gambled at all. I think some gamblers also really want to quit, but they find it difficult to do so because well their minds are almost completely distracted with wrong assumptions. To quit completely in one go may not be possible but to slowly reduce it is possible. 
absolutely yes gambling can effect relationships in many way, as first it will have impact on children of a family which will also be involved in gambling. There are lots of gamblers with which neither his family members wants to continue relationships nor his friends do so.
In today's era people don't make any relationships with those who are not financially stable may be he is a family member or some stranger. So the gambler is not financially stable therefore every person of a family move aways from him as they are in a fear that gambler will take loan from them and will not return to them back.
In short everyone wants to live a happy life and don't want a relationships with gamblers because gambler is mentally disturbed when he Don't have any amount to be use for gambling.
