As long as it is and many fact that if you see gambling as a door to depend on life is a mistake, and the calculation of losses will definitely be very swollen in finance speaking, no one can dodge it about it. It needs to be underlined what needs to be changed is the perspective of gambling and how to use it for your own happiness, and do it responsibly.

Casinos need to pay for workers, pay for operations and features available in the casino, this is a type of business, which also needs to take advantage for them to continue and it is obtained from the customer's deposit money, so the possibility to win is very small in Gambling, in addition to the expertise and luck that is the mainstay of gamblers, giving from home directly is one of the indicators to benefit. In an economic view, this might be silly when looking at people who play in gambling to get victory by bringing big money, but for those who only want pleasure, sometimes it requires great costs to make us happy.

Very few people become rich from gambling, most people become poor because of gambling and even go bankrupt and have a lot of debt. Gambling activities are very exciting, there is an exciting sensation when placing a bet and there is satisfaction when winning a bet. Maybe that feeling is what makes people addicted to gambling

But the funny thing about gambling is that we know that the chances of winning are smaller and the chances of losing are bigger, but we still gamble  

Your perception is correct, and the problem is that most gamblers don't pay attention to that.
Beginner gamblers may be careful at the start. they may fail but they have more time to gamble and that will give the effect of enjoyment and ultimately addiction. they will keep coming with their money.

now for anyone who wants to gamble. Be wise in managing your finances when you want to gamble. although in fact we never know when we can lose control of the game.

Gambling was not made to enrich people. The motive of every business man or woman is to make profit. But in gambling you Don expect to make profit on regular basis. It's just a game of luck and shouldn't be concentrated as a line of business. Gambling always has the slogan that you should use your spare money. But people always put all there energy on it like there life depends on it.

Gambling is not really as you thought, excess of every thing is a problem. Many people became rich with it and majority were made poor with it. I sudjet that betting should be based on what you can afford to loose. Which will not affect your other investment.

You know we all have different opinions and approaches on how we take gambling and the way we play and enjoy the fun, but not to rely on such for our full dependency, in such scenario of the case of your friend, that is not good enough to make as decision, gambling shouldn't be our only dependent means of revenue generation.


Gambling is not to deceive people or discouraged them from the reality that it has it own advantage and disadvantages, when we gambles, we should know also that it's either we win or loose, gambling is just another way of subscribing to have fun on things we love to do with the use of our personal money, some managed to win while some couldn't, but that doesn't determine how far we should make our performance wether if we are winning or not while gambling.

Yes, I agree with your opinion, many people have been trapped in the world of gambling and it is difficult to avoid gambling addiction, just like drugs, many people play gambling in the hope of winning big, they use various tricks or patterns to get victory. But what is wrong is that because they are sure of the victory they will get, they do not realize that this gambling game is only for entertainment alone, they should think that gambling is only for entertainment and nothing more than that, because the risk of gambling addiction is very high, of course it will harm themselves and even their relatives and family can be affected. Then how to prevent it? As you said, they must have discipline or be able to control their emotions and desires by gambling. If they can control their emotions, then there will be little or no risk from gambling.

No matter how good they are at gambling, they will not be separated from the luck that will give them victory, so they must realize that this game is not separated from luck, patterns and tricks will not guarantee them to be able to get a big win.

The thing is, people, don't decide why they are gambling after they make up their minds that they will gamble, but they start gambling because they have already thought about what they want to achieve from it. So, someone who takes gambling as a way to earn money has already thought of different ways to earn money and they stumbled upon gambling and they decided that it might be the only way that can provide them with some quick profits in no time.

Those who take gambling as a way of entertainment have also decided it before they start gambling, they might have thought of different ways they can spend their time and they have decided that they will spend some money on gambling and have some fun hence they get into it and get out without any regrets even after losing the money.

      -  Well, honestly speaking, gambling is not bad if it is done correctly or responsibly. It only becomes bad when it causes something bad in our personality, like having a gambling addiction; it's not good then, of course.

But if you can manage yourself in gambling, you will not lead to addiction, for sure, because you know yourself how to limit and control it, and for sure, you will not allow it to affect your family just because of your negligence in playing here in gambling. You should be limited in your gambling—not too much or too little.

Not really, because some people gamble without thinking about winning the game or making money from gambling. They only spend a little time gambling and end it when they feel they have had enough gambling. They will not gamble for too long because they know it could cause problems for them. They only try to treat gambling as entertainment and will not get too deep into gambling to avoid problems such as gambling addiction. They also will not make gambling a habit because it will cause problems if they become addicted to gambling.

Of course, especially beginners who are new to gambling when they get a win they will assume it is very easy to get money just by gambling and hearing how to play gambling to get a big win they will get, on the contrary there will be defeats that they will feel in the game, to avoid defeat it would be better to play with the aim of having fun, gambling is just a game of losing and winning not a place for income.

Most consider gambling can provide wealth for them, even today it is not only young people who play gambling. parents or children also participate in gambling, especially in slot games or online-based gambling, many people think that gambling gambling is like a solution for them to increase their finances through winning which in fact is difficult and almost impossible for them to get. So remember once again, gambling is just a place to find fun, nothing more than that and there you can spend a little time, but definitely not to look for victory because the real negative impact will definitely befall if it comes with the wrong mindset. That's right guys, the fear is for those newbies who have just come, they have to see how other people's downfalls are due to the wrong mindset.

The risks associated with gambling are substantial. I myself abstain from gambling because I detest it,possibly because of the way it was created. you incur greater losses than gains. I have a guy who is so dependent on gambling that he is unable to stop. I can recall that i assisted him in paying his school fees at the time he actually utilized them to gamble. If I didn't think I could assist him and he had no other way to raised the money, he would leave the school.

Do you believe that those who opened casinos were insane? It's difficult to win; your chances are slim, and even if you win, you would have to spend a lot of money before you win. Even when you strike it lucky and win for the first time, human avarice may prevent you from enjoying your winnings. Despite wanting to win more, you will nonetheless return the money and doing so increases your risk of losing more.

Therefore, the mindset that must be emphasized is that gambling is just a game and nothing more than that. From the beginning, gambling was not very important and was considered an entertainment option to drop $10 a week or only once every 2 weeks. That's with the intention of spending it, not to double like people who try to hope for more than what they bet. So in this case it comes back to the placement of gambling for you or anyone, whether you take it seriously as a source of income or just a game to spend money.

I think this was your biggest mistake and I am wondering how did it come so far for you? Maybe you could share a bit more about your experiences and why you thought that gambling would make you rich. I also have been gambling for many years now, but I am not relying on gambling to change my financial status. For me and all my friends I know that have gambled in the past, it's a form of entertainment and not a form of making money. The casino itself is a company that needs to turn a profit, it's not like they can make all their customers rich. There will be some people who get lucky and get rich through gambling, but this is only a small part of the gambler community. The majority of gamblers will only make small profits or small losses. Like with most distributions, the tails will be very flat and expecting to be one of the lucky few is not a good idea. So, be happy about your wins just don't rely on them. Don't use any money for gambling that you can't afford to lose. Lottery is even a more extreme example, just because someone plays it every week shouldn't make him expect to become a millionaire soon.

The whole talk about gambling being a source of entertainment is rather absurd to me because I believe anyone that actually gamble actually strive for two things which are
1. The feeling that you have actually won something
2. They do gamble because they think it can give them little earnings.

Those of us that let the habit become an addiction is actually also common Because you cant expect to be having the mindset of getting cash from gambling then what you always get is just hopes and then finally stories of people winning will just continue playing in your head and that's when the whole issue starts from.

Gambling isn't all bad as it has its positive and negative impact like every other thing on earth. Gambling becomes a problem when we use it as a source of income and not as a source of entertainment. Gambling is meant to be something we do for fun but the lacking of job opportunities in the world has made many individual without jobs to use gambling as a way to look for money and that's why it seems like the negative impact of gambling is outweighing other things.

Underage gambling is increasing because of gambling addition and people are losing their money and getting debts because of not been able to control their gambling addition. Gambling was just meant to be how we have fun and  participate in some friendly competition.

There are many cases of people who suffer from old age and a lot of optimism, in the case of this type of people, I advise them to avoid gambling, because they will easily become addicted or will develop heart disease, also people who know that they have a lot of difficulties with pregnancy of money should never enter gambling, people who have already been addicted to drugs and alcohol should also never enter gambling, people with a history of being very violent should also not enter gambling. So there are people who should avoid gambling. most of the time some people may think that they are strong, that they will not fall into the wrong path when they enter into gambling, but they are people who ignore their history of negative things in their life and because of that they end up entering into gambling and destroying the whole their lives

For example, a case of a person who has problems with alcohol, this person was unable to save money and used everything they had to buy alcohol, this person was addicted to alcohol, but managed to go to the hospital and was cured. Therefore, these types of people should not gamble, because they tend to become addicted quickly, he was cured of alcohol addiction, but he would enter into another addiction, which in this case would be gambling addiction, and gambling addiction It will be worse than the alcohol addiction, he will sell everything he has to continue gambling and then when he realizes that he has lost everything, he will go back to the alcohol addiction, with that he will be left with 2 addictions.

You made a mistake right from the beginning. You had the wrong mindset when joining gambling. If you have it in mind to improve your financial status when gambling, then you will end up spending everything you have on gambling. If you are after money in gambling, then you might end up losing everything. Even if you are making a little amount, you won't be satisfied, you will want to increase it. In the process of doing that, you will increase the amount that you are spending on gambling, and you will end up losing a lot. The more you keep on losing, the more you try to win back your loss.

Addiction is very bad, and I think that's one of the things that's killing most gamblers. If you are addicted to gambling, you will end up doing crazy things that a reasonable person won't do. Gambling addiction has pushed a lot of people into committing crimes just to get money to gamble. Some of them have starved themselves and their family members, and some do sell their properties just to make money to gamble. If you want to be a gambler and you want to enjoy yourself, then try to avoid gambling addiction.

discussions like this are often discussed here, even some threads have discussions that are a bit similar to the bad side of gambling and yes, I do admit that what you say is true about gambling responsibly and avoiding the mindset of gambling as a source of income like other threads that provide content about gambling. responsibly and the third negative thing has become an addiction. but here there is also a thread about the development of online gambling, now with the development of online gambling, all advertising promotions seem to give an idea of getting very easy money from gambling and the bad side is that today young generation is too instant in their mindset of thinking that the advertisement will actually get them. money faster in gambling. so its not surprising that there are so many gambling addicts nowadays because this is one of the impacts of the development of online gambling which is easily accessible from anywhere.

in this concept it all depends on healthy principles and thinking about gambling and knowing how gambling works is one way to provide good control for the younger generation. if someone understands how gambling works they will never consider gambling as a source of income because the gambling industry is built to provide profits to its owners not to its customers. so it is very important here that anyone who wants to try to gamble better understand how gambling works before everything ends badly.

Yes, seen some of my friends as well getting ruined in just matter of months when they started to go into gambling, young or old. I think when they started getting involved, they really don't realized the extend of what gambling can bring to them. So even if they have a lot of money to gamble, it's not going to be enough unless you have like a source of unlimited wealth which is not going to happen.

But it's hard to advise them to be honest, we really can't. And the best thing that I can do is that when he ask me to go with him to gamble in land base casinos, I will just say No to him and maybe it will send him a signal that I don't like gambling, I just play to have some fun and not get addicted to him. Maybe just once or twice a month for me will do. But not like almost everyday that he wants to go and play online and land base casinos.

You want to go deeper on Topic...and how the song "...y OP se marcho..." (Latin American song, sorry), OP was not seen again on Topic/reply

First of all, the environment, both family and social, are direct influences on behavior to follow bad habits.

You must always remember that addictions come from any area, not just casinos or the so-called gambling issue, because if you are sick you do not need the refuge of a casino for this to be justified.

Young people today, more than advice, they need opportunities, economic well-being, accessible universities, good jobs, and even moments of leisure... maybe that they can bet.

No one is exempt from falling into any type of addiction, but as I mentioned, some are acquired by the environment, others are symptomatic, that is, you will become an addict sooner or later and neither the sociocultural level nor the fact that you have good intentions will save you. There are asymptomatic addicts who are the ones who can recover and lead a normal life with gambling in their environment.

But symptomatic addicts do not return, it is very difficult for them to get out of the addiction, anyone addiction, anyway, to determine if you are a potential addict, you don't have to find out by making thousands of bets and losing money, get an medical exam.
