I bet it will. Most of the people who hate gambling were gamblers before and some also been a victim of a family member who's  been a gambler. If you lose everything you have and are left with nothing is maybe the best lesson a gambler could ever have.
Why wait for those times to happened before we realized that gambling should not be a source of income, once we let ourseves believe that we can earn through it or we can win back our loses,we were tend to be desperated and will be out of focus. If we do really want to play, then find a job and allot some of it for playing, it is indeed fun to play without desperation to win, but the thought that we will just enjoy the game.

there are no lesson in gambling only the luck.

Maybe if you have so much luck and you're always a winner and never experience losing in gambling, I believed that gambling really don't have a lesson for you and it's only a luck. You will not learn anything unless you experience it. It's good to hear that you're very lucky. But for me, I'd rather experienced losing so that I can learn many things in life and make me more stronger.

As far as i know you'll learn a lot more when you get to experience setbacks and losses. No one wins all the time in gambling and you won't learn anything that way. You learn lessons when you experience challenges. That's what will make you wiser the next time around.

Yes that's true. I don't believe on people who never experienced how to lose in their entire life. Failing is learning. You cannot always win. The earth is round, sometimes you're on top, sometimes you're in bottom.

Gambling taught me that I don't have to be greedy, I need to be contented on what amount I won for this day.
Because if I never get contented that winning can be recovered by the casino.
And it's the reason why I'll lose some more.

Goos thing it you've learned early on. Some people learned the last lessons they had with gambling. Gambling can be fatal for people who don't have very weak emotional capacity. There are many cases wherein hige losses lead to depression, broken family relationships, people losing their minds and suicide
That's true mate, good thing that you've already learned a lesson with your mistakes, it is really hard to quit in gambling and people are not really contented on what they have even if they have what already what they need, all of us won’t satisfy until we realize that we are already losing a lot, but some people has a late realization that they cannot control themselves at first, that’s why some people lead to depression, broken family relationships, people losing their minds and suicide just like what you’ve said.  Cry
In short, the prime reason must be greedy. I am not against greed but I recommend fulfilling this greed by efficient ways and hard work. Gambling is no mean of earning capital or profits. People who fall for it are numbskulls. There is no easy way of getting what a man cherishes. He must go through hard times in order to grow.
Why not you treat gambling is a way to learn those lessons ? Until I touch gambling, I was not aware that I am also greedy person. Gambling only notified my characteristics and capabilities on emotion control. Gambling may not capable of teaching any lessons but it will notify that where we are lagging to have a successful life.

But we are seeing many people are learning very big lesson from gambling. From that I understand it is up to a gamblers capability to learn or to ignore those lessons.

Yes of course can give you a lot of lessons in life, in terms of financial losses that can teach  you how to value money in a matter of time. Because thar time you are engaged in gambling is you are not thinking to earn money for your family and the only thing you aim is to win and not lossing. If we generally analyze the whole idea here, you didn't expect to loss and yet you really loss because gambling always make's you loss rathen than winning. Having a bigger lossea that cannot be recovered by playing again will certainly give you a nice lessons that will also give you the principle of not joining gambling bets anymore; life will be change as well.
Financial losses was already given for the gamblers. Perhaps, most gamblers knew that things anyway. But even is like that, still continuing gamble even they are already big loss in the games which I think they never take it as a lesson, maybe because of the addiction it has.

I think everyone get a lesson from gambling also addicted gamble. But addicted gamblers they have no sense to feel and get lesson from their loses. But who get a lesson from gambling he is a good gambler. In gambling, only one thing is lesson-able and that is our loses, if we manage it then gambling always give us good lesson in winning shape.

Depends on what kind of gambling it is. If it is physical table games where there are people around, you can learn how to read people through their actions. This is usually prevalent in poker, since it is a good thing if you know how to read "tells".

Another good thing about it can teach you is decision making. If you are playing poker, it teaches you on when to hold or when to fold. If playing black jack, you can make lots of decisions in there. Like when to hit, when to split, when to double down. This is also tied up to handling money. You decide when to call it quits if you win to walk away with winnings, or where to draw the line if you are losing.

You also tend to become friendly when you are surrounded by people who plays with you on the same table. Being able to talk to people, even to random strangers builds up your confidence and would help you in your professional and personal life.

Yeah maybe it can give someone a lesson when he really got addicted to gambling ang he almost lose all his life savings and his family. This is the reality and this is like a wake up call to him that gambling is no good for him. Addiction in gambling can lead to a total devastation into someone's life if they can't control it.
I think gamblers see any lesson from gambling only when they lost everything and they are totally exhausted out of it. Whenever that they had even a little they never been able to learn from their mistakes. Their loss and empty pockets make them wake and help them to learn lesson that gambling never have been of any profit to them. A bad addiction they had which caused them deep harm.
- Yeah, that's true, we always recognize lessons from gambling when we've lost everything. I also had once lost everything in gambling, the feeling at that time can be said to be very bad, my mind is empty, i always tell myself, if i stop sooner, maybe i will not lose everything, maybe i will still have a little fun. Actually, if someone has ever tried this feeling, they will understand what I say, regret, disappointment and collapse, I just want to cry out loud and forget everything
That's probably the phase of regret. The feeling that you shouldn't have gambled anymore especially when you have experienced winning and has a lot of profit. Losing everything would mean the end of you in a way because if you think about it, you have nothing left but if you managed yourself and accepted that you can't always win in gambling, you wouldn't be that emotional. Gamblers should really practice that.

It happens because the gambler was feeling too powerful, making a lot of profit, nothing could stop him... But then the long streak loss comes and it's all over. Then he starts regreting and at first imagine how he could enjoy the profit he have made before and now it's all over, then he changes his mind to an empty stage, that protects himself of feeling even worse for the loss.

It's very hard to practice it, the practice can lead the gambler to a stage he will be more cautious, but consequently more coward somehow to play...

Yeah, gambling helps me how to control my emotion: If i lost control to myself, the high chance i will lost all my money. That's all things gambling teach me included OP's lesson.
Yes gambling do gives you lessons in life. Most importantly, it helps you to understand your financial matters and to deal with them in a more profitable way. Along with this, gambling is an easy way to learn full control of your emotions and to not let your greed take over your senses. Gambling is a game but once you get into it, it won’t let you out without any particular lesson of life.
But this lessons would only be gained or realized when you already being wrecked by gambling.It will really give you lessons on which comes to a point that you would really able to apply it on your entire life. This is the thing that gambling gives you and also we should not forget that gambling could really take lots of money from your pocket in able for you to realize that thing.

Yes the lesson that gived me in life was: its better dont gamble, because if you play you can never win
Its my personal opinion, maybe in your life you have won a big amount (unfortunately not me)
I think its possible to win a big amount only on lottery like power ball

Yes. You can also tell that life is like a gamble. You have to gamble your life while deciding your future. Cause you will never know what you will be in the future. You need to try a lot of things before you achieve your wants. You need to gamble your life and it only has two outcomes. Either you will be successful or not. It's all about luck.
