Definitely not.  Why would I be shameful when I have done nothing wrong.  I am spending my own money and I am not ignoring the family needs and supply them sufficiently.  Aside from that I believe gambling is just a recreational activity and not a sin where we offend or hurt someone.  So as long as I am doing fine and does not affect around me negatively I will never be shameful even if I am a gambler.

There's no need to be shameful if you are doing it the right way. And if you are using your own money to gamble then instead of being shameful you should be proud of it. Because you don't need to ask your parents or friends just to give you money for your own purpose which is gambling. You are right, you don't have to be affected and there's no need to be shameful of if you are just doing fine.
I agree with you, we just need to control ourselves when playing gambling and considering it is an entertaining game, we will not feel ashamed when become a gambler. However I think we should not feel proud when using our own money to gamble because in a sense, gambling is wrong and illegal, this is a social aspect. Maybe now you are using your own money and you feel very proud of it but if you lose for a long time, you will use your family's money, this will be a shame. So I can say I do not feel ashamed to be a gambler, but I'm not proud of it

Gambling is not illegal for some countries and it is not wrong, if you are gambling and you are not responsible for it, you are the one that is doing something wrong in gambling. And that's the time that you should feel ashamed. I find nothing wrong in gambling, so you really don't have to be ashamed of it but I understand the point that you are telling that we shouldn't be proud of it, I guess it goes and depends to the gambler.

Not one bit im not stealing or scamming to feed an addiction.
So what is there to feel bad about?

I don't know why there are people who are shameful for being a gambler. Maybe their addiction is really that too much and it came to the point that they are doing those things that they must not do. But with me, I don't feel to be shameful for it because I am not doing those type of activity to steal and scam people because I gamble with my own money.
Being shameful will only happen if we do illegal things when doing gambling, but if not, then it should be something we can be proud of as it's entertaining for us and that is our main intention why we are doing it. Those people who said it should be a shameful activity, for sure they have not tried gambling yet, they must try to know how entertaining it is.

Being ashamed about gambling is like saying you are using money that is not from you are just like what sparkedev said. That is the only time that we should feel bad about our betting. Another thing that could make you feel ashamed about gambling is when you are already a burden to your family.

something we can be proud
No, I don't feel proud about gambling, it's enough to not feel bad about it.

I had to just comment on your post because I kind of see where you are coming from. I like to gamble online with Bitcoin as well though I do not feel that bad when I gamble nor do I feel proud about it either. Since the whole thing about gambling to me is just so I could have a little bit of fun it really is not an issue for me to second guess if I am doing the wrong thing.
If I lose money in gambling, I just accept it and move on.
The feeling of being proud will only come out when we do win.Im sure most of us do feel the same way on playing gambling because once we won on a certain game,we are really proud of that and it boost up our confidence which makes us more careless on playing and resulting to lose and thats the cycle on playing gambling. Theres nothing to be proud of actually because its just a game,the shameful thing is when you already got broke and lose all the money and assets you do have.

It should never ever be used as a way to make money, that is just a crazy thinking most newbies have. Gambling can never get you a steady income and you'll just likely be bankrupt in a few days you are gambling and people who think this way will soon realize their mistakes. Gambling is just an entertainment for everybody to just enjou.

It is a shameful being a gambler if you are not responsible person for playing gambling. It is indeed shameful if you are doing illegal activities, crimes to have money in return of luxuries. Once I become gambler and I realized Im become addicted to it, but thankful now I comeup those things.
It is true that you need to be responsible for every decisions you made when you are playing gambling others said it is bad to play gambling wvwn you are uaing your own money it is a sin but yes you had the point there better to gamble than to do illegal activities you can conteol your self i know those words of yours makes you more responsible person

No, I don't.

I know gambling is bad and it is a waste of money, but it provides me satisfaction. And at the end of the day, that is what counts the most.

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!

If I were a gambler why would I ashamed? First of all I am happy to gamble and to feel relaxed. Gambling is shameful if it makes illegal or you did bad things,more particularly if you neglect your family.  I do not need to hide if I am a gambler, as long as I know how to discipline  myself,know my priorities and the gambling  limits.

You should definitely feel ashamed for doing those things in the past. I guess you must have learned your lesson about stealing money from parents just for gambling. You must already know that it would not bring any good in you and would only cause you trouble.

As for me, I think there is nothing to be ashamed for in being a gambler as long as you know for yourself that you did not do anything wrong just to gamble.
All is in our head, guilt and shame caused by the world included, that is why we are even discussion this topic.
Objectively when you gamble for fun, have a good time, and treat it as an entertainment you are not doing anything wrong.
So why do we have all these people commenting that even if you throw a dice for fun it is a sing? Or you are bad human being?
Disregard what others think completely, those  who won't accept you are not worth your time.


There are many players play gambling just for time pass and having fun, but they scare to share this with their family members. In some country the people will treat gambling is a very bad activity those who play this gambling they think they are bad people. That is why people do not share gambling activity with family members, and other close loved once.

Yes, there are still many gamblers who always place bets every day, every time he has free time, but the people around him do not know that he is gambling. Many gamblers keep secret the gambling status of their family and closest people because they are still embarrassed.

Nope, I feel cool. I like people to talk about how much I gambled (makes an image of a wealthy man as I am).

Felt shame only in the past when I took loans to gamble and had stolen money from my parents. Dumb I was when I was younger

Well if he at least took something from that and became a better person thanks to this experience then who are we to judge?

Past is past and he did learned a lesson from it and that's for sure. If I were on his shoe, I'll feel the same but that's the result of being an addicted gambler. So when he was younger, he's addiction is severe. Take this as a lesson and I know there are more people that are experiencing this thing and if you don't want this to happen to your life, you should be responsible.

Well, you're not a really wealthy man if you have to steal money from your parents.

Everyone will be ashamed of what they have done in the past. I was ashamed of myself in the past as well because I used to spend a huge amount to gamble every single day, sometimes I win and ended up losing everything again. I was very stupid before and now I regret it , which is why now I only gamble for fun
It's not that easy to move on rom the past especially if it affects you deeply, for example, being addicted to gambling you managed to destroy your relationship towards family, girlfriend/boyfriend, friends, etc. Not caring about anything at all because of gambling. That's why it's shameful, you should learn how to stop it and pray to God that he save you but its all up to you really.

It's still good that you were able to accept your defeat and learn from your mistakes.
The truth is we are bound to lose if we are gambling, it should be done for fun.

Probably the statistics itself says that in most cases, gambling drives people to bad deeds, and this already starts to remind me of drug addiction.
