Regardless of our status and role in gambling, we will still be able to listen as long as what is communicated touches our hearts, it is a fact that even in this life, sometimes many people find that gamblers are stubborn and cannot accept advice but the advice that comes from the way we communicate with gamblers is very important, requiring reasonableness and tact. But besides that fact, people's assessment of gamblers is too harsh, the communication of advice is often hurtful and causes gamblers to become more impulsive in their views.
absolutely right and that is the fact, society's view is very blind towards gamblers. They think that gambling is a big crime, even though the activities of gambling are not in the least bit objectionable to them. most of it only leads to ourselves because what we are risking in gambling is our own money, there is no harm whatsoever to them. Even when we get the jackpot, they might also get a small part of our gratitude for getting a big win. At that moment, they seemed to forget their one-eyed glance.

Once we are making money from gambling, who cares about what people will say because their words is not going to out food on the table for us. Gambling is a way for us to make extra cash for ourselves and we don't have to see it in a way that will be our major means of making money. I know their are people that see gambling as a full means of making money but that should never be a problem for us that are always curious to be disciplined and not allow undisciplined lifestyle to hijack us just like that. People would about complain which is one thing I am very convinced about whether we have money or we don't have. 
Not sure if all of us can really make money from gambling. Some of us may just make gambling as a source of fun. However, even we never make money from gambling, it is our own right to play gambling. People actually have no right to forbid us from gambling as long as we gamble in a proper way. But when we gamble in a careless way, our close people have the right to give suggestion.
Anyway, if we don't want to let random people complaining about our gambling habit, we don't tell any people about our gambling activities. Just keep it in secret, people don't know anything!! But for the close people, specifically for the wife, I think it is okay to tell them. If we have a problem in gambling, they are the person who can help us. Don't forget about this!
Making gambling a place to have fun would of course be a very good thing if we could do it, but very few people can do that because they think of gambling as a place to get money easily, of course this is very wrong because it is very difficult to do so. win bets consistently and there are many bad things we will get from gambling if we can't think of gambling as a place to have fun.Anyway, if we don't want to let random people complaining about our gambling habit, we don't tell any people about our gambling activities. Just keep it in secret, people don't know anything!! But for the close people, specifically for the wife, I think it is okay to tell them. If we have a problem in gambling, they are the person who can help us. Don't forget about this!
I agree with what you say, if we don't want other people to say we are bad gamblers then we have to keep the gambling activities we do a secret and also don't let our gambling activities disturb other people so they don't take care of the gambling activities we do. don't keep secrets from your wife about the gambling activities that we do, of course this will be able to control the gambling activities that we do because very few women like gambling and when they do it very often of course they will advise us to stop and we also have to listen if we don't. want another problem to happen.
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?
I really don't care how people who are not close to me judge whether I participate in gambling or not. What they think is their thing, I don't mind hiding it. As for my relatives, they will understand what I am doing and I will certainly tell them that my participating in gambling is a disciplined job that can bring me profits because I had experience in this market. And I can completely prove it so they understand, but for outsiders, I don't need to do that.We cannot please everyone around us. We should only do what we think is right and not affect others, and we should not care too much about the rest, such as what the people around them will think? We really don't have enough time to make people understand us, it's meaningless. Especially with gambling, this is a sensitive topic for many people, so sometimes no matter what we say, they don't want to understand us.

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.
I totally agree with you dear but in this life, I don't think there is anything that someone will say that won't require people to talk, even if you are doing the right thing, people will still talk about it and at time, make you look as if it's a bad thing likewise when you are doing something wrong, the shocking part of people is that, even if you are living comfortable with your life and your gambling strategy as far as you are not losing or winning much, people will still talk and be advising you and if you check well, it's people who barely feed, or who are constantly losing, or people who are far better. So whatever thing we are doing, be it gambling, we should always do it out of joy or for the sake of our peace of mind, as far as we managing our money and time because this way can as serve as a way to relieve stress because emotional health is really matters too because no one will help us when we are sick or down. So we should do what makes us happy and forget people opinions.
Well, my gambling life is one that I keep to myself often except for a very few persons whom I feel I could be free around to discuss my every affair and other gamblers at all, before I could let you in on my gambling. It’s not because I see gambling to be some vice or whatever but, it’s because I mostly gamble online and am cool with that plus, it doesn’t add to me or take from me to tell you how my gambling went, that’s my affair.
So yeah, people don’t really get the chance to know much and as such, you don’t get to say nothing either, your opinion continues to stay with you and even the few that knows and could say a few words, it’s not been hurtful and I doubt it would really get to me.

There were a time when I used to care about what people thought of me, then when I was a student, especially if I visited the betting shop, once I came out, I would always look down when I saw people looking at me but after I graduated from Uni, I started playing on my mobile phones, I will open the site in the public places without caring about what they will say, because while I was in school none of them helped me so why should I cared so much about their opinions, the only thing I care about is not to be addicted.
That's true. It's better to ignore these people who are not really concern and only judging you based on what they see. I already stop minding what others has to say as long as I know to myself that i'm not doing anything wrong. Many people are seeing gambling as bad because of the possibility to ruin one's life. The reason why gamblers are judged due to it. However, we know it depends on the gambler itself on how he/she will handle gambling. 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

which makes other people care about gamblers because they see the big effects that result beyond limits, such as selling goods, losing responsibility, reducing common sense. This causes family and friends to take the initiative to provide advice on reducing gambling activities when gamblers are given the motivation that they are actually aware of the situation. but on the other hand, gamblers have high hopes of getting the win,
And when you're at that state, it only means that you don't care what others are saying about you. You sell stuff, goods and everything you own because you have no money left to gamble.That's the highest level of gambling addiction or close to it when you're doing that already. When you hear people say such things about you, it's going to be annoying because all you're doing is to do unnecessary things that will put you into a more bad situation.
To me, I don't care what they say but I am aware of my status when I gamble.
It's not wise like that, but that's the fact. and I'm sure everyone has experienced thoughts like that.
I would not allow them to judge me rather I will try to judge myself through my actions and inactions after having a deep thoughts about things. As an individual, I have an end of the month, monthly evaluation form, where I tried to introspect on my affairs to make better decisions in the near future. I will also advise many of others here to try that. Although I'm not always consistent throughout all the months, but it has seriously help me to remain informed on the progress of life entirely.
As for what people will say about my gambling habit or addiction, it's left to them. Whether I do well or do badly, people will comment so I try as much as possible to, though take cue from their talks, but introspect within myself to figure out the solutions to my problems.

People are very good at judging, they always look for a way to make sure that what the majority does is right and what we do when we have fun is wrong, so these are things that for many do not make any sense, since we are doing illegal activities if possible within the world of Criticism , of bad Criticism, but they do not make much effort to try to Speak politely about people, it is enough for them to say Hello for it to be a bad act, for now things with the casinos are not wrong, nor prohibited, only with the exception of countries that are very Delicate with their Religion.
Absolutely nothing is wrong with casino or anything related to gambling, it will only become wrong if a gambler is too hooked up that he's willing to risk all the money on his pocket, especially for a family man.
Most judgmental people are the one's who always goes to church on Sundays, the kind of religious one, because it is against the 10 commandments they believed. However, people have different religion and beliefs so that doesn't mean we all have to follow what the others believes. We just live the way we want our lives to be as long as we are not committing crimes nor hurt people. Gambling isn't a crime though as long as it is regulated and registered legally.
I don't live my life to try to impress any one, so fuck anyone who tries to say shit behind my back, I don't fucking care. Besides they are not the one paying my bills. In this life, I've come a findings that when you keep living to someone elses expectations, you might even end up forsaking your purpose while helping them fulfil theirs. It's quite unfortunate how some persons are just Hippocrates, trying to cover up with the image of good friend and yet they are the back stabbers praying for your downfall. I'm not after making myself wealthy over night of gambling and that why I don't gamble irresponsible or even getting addicted along the journey.

If we truly know that how we are gambling is being done in such a way that is expected of us to do, then we need not to care on what other people are saying concerning how we gambles, the problem many have is that they don't engaged in doing the right thing and still don't mind or care about what others are saying, we have to watch our steps from the way we are gambling, because other people are watching us if we don't know by ourself.
Once we are making money from gambling, who cares about what people will say because their words is not going to out food on the table for us. Gambling is a way for us to make extra cash for ourselves and we don't have to see it in a way that will be our major means of making money.

People would about complain which is one thing I am very convinced about whether we have money or we don't have.

Actually I think it's quite simple, if their criticism doesn't harm you and you don't harm them then yes of course it doesn't really matter what other people say about us who have a habit of engaging in gambling, and also on the other hand even if for example you have a good approach according to what is always suggested which leads to many precautions to keep us safe and avoid the various bad possibilities that exist in gambling still people will not believe whatever you say, most people see gambling as a very negative activity because of the very bad impact when someone has fallen into the addiction phase, but on the other hand I think there are still some effective ways for you to avoid various comments or criticisms that you don't want to hear which one of them is to be completely confidential about your involvement in gambling. 
Most gamblers who are beginners in the world of gambling will definitely experience times when a position is excessive and has fatal consequences, as I said. will be uncontrollable, but gamblers who have had this experience do not want to repeat it. because the key basis for gambling is just for entertainment, not the main point of making money
That is why we must be able to control our spending in gambling places. Nobody forbids us from gambling, but the most important thing is that we must be able to control our emotions and the money we spend on gambling. Don't ever be tempted to always spend money on just one day, we can still try it tomorrow and there is a possibility of winning. Because I believe there are days when we lose and there are also days when we win and make a lot of profit.It is difficult when it comes to controlling the mcones, it is not easy for someone in the game to make us think too much because when we are thinking about making a play suddenly the adrenaline makes us make many mistakes, and that is the worst thing that can happen , for that reason when we are thinking about doing the best we have to think that if we spend money we will not have that money until later after doing other things, when I see that there are ways to earn and spend less I take them, otherwise I don't If I see that the risk is too big I don't do it and with respect to others I don't stop them or give them any importance, because it is my money and they are my decisions.
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.
You are right, bro. Nothing is really wrong with filtering some criticism thrown at someone (a gambler). Some people criticize out of the care that they have for their friends or relatives who are taking their gambling lifestyles to the edge, but on the contrary, some people just hate gambling, and they therefore hate anybody who gambles. So, what I actually means is that, the fact that someone doesn't like gambling should not make him or her talk ill of others what love gambling and are participating in gambling activities.
You know that there are some people who just believe that gambling is very bad because it makes people lose money, so their belief is that anyone who gambles is not responsible for wasting their money.
On the other hand, I also agree with your opinion that we should not demonize someone who likes to gamble, simply put as long as their habits do not harm us at all then let it go, don't let them think that you are someone who likes to interfere with other people's affairs which might cause problems between you and people who like to gamble, but on the other hand there is nothing wrong with also giving input to those gamblers such as not being too excessive or any ideas that contain precautions for safety.
on which there would really be those negatives and criticisms on what they are able to see on which its not really that a shocking reality that we are living in today and this is something that would really be normal
and as an individual then it would be just that right that you should really know on how to make out that kind of adjustment and really that ignoring on what are those words you would really be able to heard on.
Dont care about into those words because you are the ones who would really be doing the stuffs that you do like. Just make it sure that you wont really be messing up your life with because on the time
that you would really be on such condition then expect that there's someone whose been laughing at you on the current situation or condition that you are in.
So if you are somewhat an emotional person or sensitive then you would really be easily getting pissed.
If we truly know that how we are gambling is being done in such a way that is expected of us to do, then we need not to care on what other people are saying concerning how we gambles, the problem many have is that they don't engaged in doing the right thing and still don't mind or care about what others are saying, we have to watch our steps from the way we are gambling, because other people are watching us if we don't know by ourself.
