Not at all - i earn my income with it.
It depend on what kind of gambling you play and how to.

I believe you. The fact that you actually are earning from it tells you that what you're doing is worth it and if it's beneficial then by all means continue to do it. Being ashamed or embarassed should only be applied to people who are not doing it right and are gambling way beyond their means to gamble

That's right we should not be ashamed if we are involve in gambling as long as we make fun on it or probably we just want to have a good profitable result for the benefits of our purpose. There are many successful professional gamblers now a days and in fact they were proud of it. For me the only things that we must be ashamed is when we are doing a wrongful act like stealing, downing someone for you to up and taking advantage on their weaknesses.

Shameful thing is that when other people see already that we are suffering or struggling too much on gambling effects like on financial problem and emotional/relationship to your family. This is really a shameful thing for other people to see on us but talking on the normal or casual days on playing gambling i dont see anything that it is shameful as long we do know to control ourselves.

Yes it is a very embarrassing thing. I read a lot of people here saying that they are not ashamed because they do not care what others say. But if you suffer from gambling and others keep telling stories about how much you suffer from gambling, it would be a shame for them too.

No I don't feel shameful for being a gambler because it was my choice and my decision to make to be where I am. And I had stopped gambling already for quite some time now, it made me realize I am loosing much more than profiting from it.

Go guys!
In many cultures and countries is gambling consider as a bad thing which only the poorest and silliest ones do. Many gamblers try to hide that they gamble from their friends and families and feel really shameful for that. Do you consider gambling as a bad thing? Do you feel shameful or proud for being a gambler? If it is shame what you feel what do you about it? How do you hide you're a gambler and who do you hide it from?
Let others know!

Every one of us has already know that the gambling is not good to all of us. And here in my town gambling is illegal. Because one day the People who playing in our town has been raid by the police. So every now and then they feel shameful for everybody who can see that happen. So for me I consider gambling is not good to everyone of us.

I have never been ashamed of being a gambler because i don't care what people think or say about me and it was not their money i am using to gamble. this is the way that i enjoy and to sometimes release my stress even sometimes gambling is a stressful game especially when you lose.

THat is great mindset. Gambling in the first place is not illegal and that is why government allows casino to be built in the country. HOwever, it is those that do not know how to control themselves are the issue.

Being shameful mean that's you are not proud of being gamblers. I don't ashamed of being shameful instead i'm proud of being gamblers. Because gambling is anywhere it makes feel great, and most of people are doing.. The main reason is just for fun only. I'm not ashamed of being gamblers because gambling is legal especially in my country, and favorite pastimes of most people in the whole world. People gamble because a chances of winning and for pastimes.

I think i'm not ashamed for being a gambler, because when i gamble i was feel enjoyment and proud of being a gambler. it gives fun and opportunity to earn profit. You don't worry if you are a gambler because people gamble wants to win especially the jackpot.

Hey whatever makes you happy, you should not be ashamed. People just put a stereo type on people that gamble. They portray that gamblers have a bad attitude
and they are fond of wasting money in the casinos. But really if someone is a responsible gambler, then I don't see anything wrong with it. Why should I be ashamed?

Actually embarrassed because our work can be considered junk or not in value because in some countries gambling is a game that is prohibited. but there are still many people who are proud to show off their gambling results

It is not considered junk, it is. Just give it a thought. What good gamblers do to others or even themselves ?
In what ways are they productive to anyone or their society ? Other than this, it is also not a respected work or whatsoever. Even if you win, you cannot brag about it in front of anyone.

This is tailored to the conditions in the neighborhood, sometimes I feel embarrassed because gambling is not my country's culture, but what I do is gamble in the privacy area where I have to have business camouflage to cover it as far as possible not seen by others, as long as it does not harm others then I still think gambling is a positive business.

If you do play on a certain country on which gambling is somehow being prohibited then feeling of ashamed would really be there because people around you would really have different treat or views into you which we dont really like at all on which people would really see on this way.I feel like im being crushed but this thing cant really stop if you do like to and as you said as long it wont harm others it would be just fine.

I do not feel ashamed that sometimes I gamble. It brings me pleasure, but I do not lose control during the game and I can set a limit for myself not to lose all the money.

it is just the matter of how your actual environment works .

when you live in a place where gambling are something usual then why you should be shame? people talking about betting here and there freely , joking about that etc. op just have a bad place to gamble openly. move from that place if you feel not comfortable , pretty simple.

it has always been like that in what environment the person grew up in and that has become great factor in his or her attitude and characteristics. Probably people become ashamed because they can't control themselves in gambling or probably they just don't want relatives knowing that they are gambling.

Human nature is a static thing my dear. Go to any part of the world, you will find same traits and emotions in them. Deep inside we all are same and nobody appreciates gambling. But we all try to defend our acts and want to be respected and appreciated. We speak different languages but we talk about same things.

See I am a gambler but I am not feeling any shy while gambling because it is another type income, will be decided with in minutes.
But we may lose money in a fraction of a second but at the same time, we may win gambling and it is completely based on luck.

Some people are ashamed of what they do but they keep on doing it which is incredibly lame. Some people feel ashamed because they lose and when they win they dont feel like that. Some people think that they are doing some nasty stuff because they lose money that they could have use some other place with better purposes

and that's stupidity you are just ashamed when you lose but so happy every time you win, I agree that those who feel this way are just making excuses
can't accept the fact of risking their money so when they been asked about their activity they always tend to deny because they are ashamed about it.

Exactly, you are right, man. I couldn’t just understand the psyche of gamblers. They feel so happy when they win. They feel so grieved when they had loss that is okay with everyone. But when they loss and someone asked them to play it again then they don’t make promises. Why? If you are gamblers then do it. Loss is the part of game. Don’t shy then.

A big NO to them who call gambling is shameful, I admit that people feels shame if anyone doing this but they are mad enough that dont understand that other luck based investment like Buying stocks , forex or investing in gold is also same. If gambling is shame then those professions are also shame for me.

yeah we are not doing criminal things , people shouldn't be mad and act like to make us shameful sharing and play games for the sake of fun or even money. as long as you are not against prevailing norms. you don't have to worry and just run-of-the-mill . feel like nothing wrong , unless if someone feel bothered then it could be an issue.

nothing wrong with gambling. Where I live, we have lotteries where the odds of winning might be worst than gambling.

Hi, I want provide my opinion because I am a good tipster ( Tongue

) and I have won some DirectBet Tipster championship, right now 2° place in hall of fame.

Yes, be a gambler is not easy. Because there are a lot of people (around 95%) that can harvest from betting only:
-debts
-more problems
-other addictions
...so on...

Many gamblers want hide their addiction to bet, because they can't get anything good, they loss more money of what they win... of course is shaming if you waste your money without understand why (and just playing).

Quote

Do you feel shameful or proud for being a gambler?

Personally after the closing of DirectBet I am not using placing a bet from several months. Literally no one. Probably I guess is related to my point of view on bets, more similar to a trader, and not to a gambler.

Quote

Do you consider gambling as a bad thing?

Yes I consider gambling a bad thing. Because if you don't have a smart approach, you are like trying to approach some vicious risky "drugs" with high risk to get addicted and lose a lot of money!

Quote

If it is shame what you feel what do you about it?

I am feeling good Cheesy

because I don't have any desire to play. Literally 0 interest. In fact after DB Closing I haven't place a bet Sad

Quote

How do you hide you're a gambler and who do you hide it from?

In my country betting up to a certain limit is socially accepted.
So normally I don't need to hide as gambler (but I need to hide what I am playing and my stakes that are normally really higher than others players).

Its very hard to know someone with soo many good results wich is able to stop making bets, congratulations. I had gambled last time last year with bitcoin up or down dont remember well i made some tiny profit and left, i dont believe any gambler should hide at all, you arent doing nothing wrong, unless you loose control over the bets you make and the money you loose. Several people had lost the control and had ruined their lifes, soo always take care and never risk more then can afford to loose.
