I always have a mindset that gambling is fun and entertaining, I used to played for profit but now I played for entertained myself, I like to share my point of view about gambling, but I afraid when I introduce gambling to someone who cant control himself or herself then it can become a problem, and I can become the one that make him/her become addicted
So in one my hand I'd like people to enjoy gambling but in one hand I afraid it can turned into disaster and I could the person that cause the person become addicted, so I kind of confused when someone come and asked me to teach or explained thing about gambling, should I teach them or I just ignore them? How can I teach or convince them that gambling is only for fun? Is it a wrong idea to teach or convince them to gamble for fun?
It's not worth risking. Money is involved and if that particular person is struggling with money, he will look at gambling as a way to make extra money when in reality it can only cause him to lose money. There will be times that he will be winning but in the long run he will lose all of that. You can teach them about gambling but know that you will be the one at fault if they get addicted because you were the one to introduce it to them even when they were the ones who are at total control of themselves.
There are tons of other things that can be a source of fun. These days, it seems that a lot of things are made just to entertain human beings. There are others that do not take away your money and makes you a healthier person as well. Sports is a good way to keep yourself entertained. If they are looking for thrilling moments that's why they are trying to gamble, they can also get that from sports. Maybe it will be even more intense since in sports, your life can also be at risk at times. What's more thrilling than risking your life? But of course it doesn't have to get to that intensity.
Gambling CAN be fun, but in the long run, are you really entertained? Are you really entertained by the idea that your money is depleting?
