Gambling is not basically for fun but a means of earning passive income. I doubt there are people who started gambling just for the fun of it; the primary motivation to venturing into gambling is always the money. Along the line, one can find fun but this is not the main thing about gambling.

People play video games and sport for fun, at least those does not require so much psychological body as there are no financial commitment. I think gambling is not even suitable as a means of fun because a single bad daw will make the fun disappear

Yes totally agree with you because why we are venturing into gambling bet is for us to earn profits and use it for a better thing not only for fun alone, because just as you have said earlier I didn't see anybody that we just go into gambling just to have fun, alless the person have already have a enough money before and just feel that he wants to get some fun in the gambling bet shop without that I didn't believe that a poor person we go into gambling just to have fun.

I never seen gambling as an activity for fun. When we talk about a fun activity, it is an activity that is expected to keep you happy anytime you find yourself doing it. Gambling on the other hand can make you happy once or twice that is when you win from it, but can also keep you unhappy as many as it can. Take for instance, played a game and the ticket is a running ticket that will start on Friday to Sunday. You won the games on Friday and Saturday then getting on Sunday which is the last day that you expecting to win the ticket and have your money cash out. Maybe because of how happy you are with the expectation that the club you selected is going to give you a win because you trust the club so much, then you went to watch the game live. At the end of the game the club you trust and believed so much lost the game to their opponent. Remember, you are watching this game live. Now tell me, how would you feel at that moment? Are you still going to be happy or sad at that moment? I strongly believed gambling is an activity but I don't think it should be an activity that someone will always do for fun.

As far as I'm concerned gambling as a fun activity must have alternatives. People who gamble for fun can cover expenses from other sources of income. It is not possible to find alternatives to gambling. Those who play for fun should be within their financial limits. If greed works everything will be ruined. If one goes beyond one's limits one can no longer be kept under control and then gambling becomes no fun.

Gamblers who make gambling the sole activity that they can have fun with will quickly transform into addicts, this is the exact thought I had today.

Gambling  frequently either for fun or to make money is a certain way to get addicted.

If you are gambling for fun, It will be better to have many other activities (options) that you can catch fun on, so you do not always have to gamble whenever you think of having fun. 

What do you think?
I agree that we should consider other activities for fun, specially those who claims to only gamble for fun not for the profit, there are so many activities that they could enjoy.
Bonding with their family or friends could also be an option, we shouldn't just focus on gambling.

Isn’t this true about anything? Regardless of harmful or not, everyone should have a limit. With whatever you do, it’s best to keep some time for yourself and rest. Stay away from that activity for a while.

This goes the same way for drinking as well. You can have fun without having to drink and you just need to teach yourself exactly that.

there are very few that consider gambling as a sole activity to have fun because this
involves money and we knew how important money is so how come that we will be believing
this can or claim? nope they are just hypocrite to admit their main objective when gamble
and that is purely not so true.

Better to admit that you wanted to make money so the lesser you will hide the
truth to yourself and yeah less addiction.

There's a lot of things to make us happy and when you talk about gambling and looking for fun? that will never be a thing and we must not abuse this in using your gambling activity to escape problems.

Just go to gambling site when you wanted to try your luck , and also use luck as  a a enjoying material and not to make you millionaire .
Actually gambling is not a game for fun.  Gambling is based on money.  But among them there are many people who play gambling for fun and take various risks.  The main purpose of gambling is to have fun and quit at the end.

Gambling I earn a lot of money by addiction slowly I feel attraction towards gambling but suddenly one day all earnings fail and I am lost gambling addict Gambling leads people to destruction.
it is still a game of fun mate because when there is pot of money the game is becoming
more fun but this will be lore fun when you are winning .

I understand you, anything that is being done either for fun or as a way of earning money as time goes it is possible to become addicted in the sense that we tend to be more committed to things that we find pleasure in and things that brings in money basically in life, so it is good to find other ways of having fun as well instead only being too attached to only gambling because it also helps the mind free from emotions that may arise from gambling later.

This isn't only applicable to gambling, it's suitable for anything even if you do something productive it's important to take necessary breaks to keep your mental health stress-free. If someone is only focusing on studying or singing or whatever thing they are more interested, it will look like the people is going crazy when third person is looking that person.

Yes there is nothing to be skeptical over debating on what leads to addiction as jrrsparkle is pointing out allot of things is been addicted by human as long as one can go contrary to it objective. Gambling addiction is on it part other area has it addiction. Everything need moderation anything that go beyond moderation has already turn to addiction, I think jrrsparkle is really on point.

Gambling is not basically for fun but a means of earning passive income.

There is no doubt over this many never observed the fun aspects of gambling as the attraction of earnings take more than 95%of the purpose why many gamble. I will categorically say that if the remove earning out of gambling even the so called percentage who may use it as fun may not continue as they still have atoms of earnings as derive.

Nobody play gambling for fun. Gambling is never for fun. It's a stake which it's expectation is to make income or gain money in return. Making gambling as the only activity for fun can get someone addicted to it. When someone get addicted to gambling we all know what that means. Gambling have rendered so many homeless, cashless, and lots more. I remembered when I took gambling for fun and the only way I can make quick money apart from my salary work. The very month I was paid salary. I used #20,000 that I map out for my feeding to play bet9ja. The moment the money was sourced from me as a result of gambling just within some minutes my eye clear. The moment my eyes clear the I realized that it was my feeding money I have used to play gamble. I felt so bitter for myself. I felt pains having remembered the hunger that I will go through till when the next salary is paid. Honestly, I was really hunger. Since then I made up my mind never to take gambling as the only activity for fun. Today, I can stay more than 3 months without gambling. Gambling as only activity for fun is a very bad habit.
You are not right. Maximum people play for fun. It is true that many people come for fun but later turn into addiction and then they don't play for fun. They play as if they are addicted to gambling.

Anything that you do often can be considered an addiction. If no addiction then nothing can happen. Gambling is a part of fun and when it occurs now and then, then it can be considered as addiction. When anyone is addicted to gambling there is almost no chance to leave from the addiction.

Regular participation in gambling activities, whether recreational or profitable, does increase the risk of gambling addiction. This risk is greater when gambling is the main source of happiness or pleasure in a person’s life.

You don't really need to think it twice because that is what exactly it is.

Gambling  frequently either for fun or to make money is a certain way to get addicted.
Exactly true, that is why people are trying to manage the rate at which they gamble more frequently even, though it seams to be hard.

What do you think?
There is nothing to think about it because it has become a mind blowing stuff that keeps us stagnant and we are looking towards making a better version of ourselves.

I never understood people who played for ‘fun’ because there’s not much fun in the game anymore when they are losing money but then I guess the fun part only comes when winning.

There are lots of other activities that you could do that could fuel your competitive spirit without really ruining your whole life. You could play sports or video games. Maybe take up other hobbies as well. Be crafty and create something whether that’s a pet house or a home accessory.

Can someone really gamble for the fun of it without having emotions attached to it because money is involved.
At first, possible.

But in the long run, it's very unlikely that someone will gamble without having the emotions. Because every single cent that we spend in gambling, they're all precious and that should be taken seriously by all of us.

We just don't want to gamble and lose but we keep on track with our money and that's why the emotions are high when we gamble especially when we're losing.
