Growing up into a man I got used to gambling believing it will change my current financial status, which I was wrong, it was quite the opposite, not that am not seeing money, I was but I was too fix in making it through it.
What did make you believe gambling was going to change your financial status? That was a wrong belief based in wrong assumptions. It seems you wanted that to be true, because it was a confortable mean to make income, much more enjoyable than working several hours a day for a minimum wage or so in the end of the month. Gambling isn't for people looking for a way to improve their financial status, but a hobby for people who already belong to a superior financial status and has money to spend without compromising their expenses later.

That's right, because gambling is not bad as long as you have good intentions as to why you gamble. The intention is good in terms of not thinking that this is a good job to get income; of course, that is not what is meant to be said. Although it becomes a tool to do evil to a person.

Gambling in its state is neutral, it will look bad when someone abused it and failed to control themselves in spending money to it.  Gambling is created to entertain, so in its goal is to make people have fun.  It is a positive goal but people who tends to lose their footings and discipline by overspending to the point of getting loans and buried in pile of debt make gambling industry the culprit which in fact it is the player's fault.

But I don't think gambling itself is really bad, because why do other gamblers gamble for a long time, but they don't become addicted to it, but they actually become responsible? They know how to control themselves inside casinos, which means they also know when to stop gambling.

I agree, gambling itself is not bad, the bad thing is the greediness of the gamblers that in aiming to have a huge win, they spend their wealth trying to get that huge win until they succumb to their goal and become addicted to gambling.

Don't take it as a source of income at all, discard the thought of it being a source of income cause it's not. The thought of it being anything near a source of income is what feeds the drive to source out money from it for our maintainance. You can hardly find a fault of addiction in the life of a person that discards the mentality of gambling been a source of income, the reason is that for these sets of gamblers whether they get a win or not they're cool with it to try again another day but contrary to gamblers that takes gambling as income source they are known for loss chasing which can cause addiction. So they don't mind looking tattered and unkept just to use their last cash to gamble for the day.
Most people consider gambling as a livelihood which leads them to addiction. We all know that gambling addiction is no joke, especially if you win large amounts. You are always looking for busyness, excitement. If you don't have self-control, you will lose everything.

I met people who gambled away their rent, literally risking the last dollar and $10 they had on one more bet. You must have complete control when gambling, with wise emotions and impulses.

Go with an amount that if lost won't hurt you, never go to an atm, that's a setup. I always tell people if you don't gamble don't start, it's a bad habit to stop if we can't control ourselves.

Any addiction is no joke, but when you refer to winning big amounts and how it is bad, do you mean that it can hook someone and lead them to believe that they can win more? They then play until they lose it all and actually go beyond their winnings and use their private savings to gamble, which is true then. But sometimes a big win can also lead to an unexpected fortune, which is of course the tricky part here as those are the people who spread the message about their luck and how it changed their lives while those who became poor due to gambling are those who will be silent and silenced forever. It is bad and I think a curing event could be if someone loses lots of money very early as a person when it doesn't affect life long term. It could be a lesson learnt in the right moment.

I've seen a lot of people still go broke after they win big. Some people win big and they keep spending it recklessly so they turn out broke after a few months as they still gamble and what's worse is that they bet bigger than they used to bet as they thought they could win more. That is where the greediness starts to kick in followed by addiction to gamble every day. But there are still people who win huge amounts of money and they manage it well and even quit gambling because they think that the casino will kind of get all the winnings they have.
Most of gamblers would really be that ending up on the same fate because of having no control towards themselves on which it would really be resulting that kind of motive or intent which it would be pushing even more for them to play despite of those conditions that they are in greens but suddenly it would really be that becoming red or losing entirely to the winning that they had get because they have lost their control and molding up that kind of greediness inside on which it isnt something that recommended in the first place. If you do really make yourself that not that much minding about
spending money back despite on being positive just for that leisure thing or entertainment then it should be fine but on the time that you are already that going further just for the sake of income making or making more wins then this is already a sign of addiction.

Gambling could put up significant effect if you arent really that good on handling yourself towards your emotions and mindset towards it. If you do aim on becoming rich
then it cant really be removed that you would really be making those common mistakes on which gambler do really be able to commit on.

Gambling is pretty simple though, I mean if you are playing and making predictions on the account of enjoying yourself, I don't think you will be affected by any effect that it provides.

Yeah, you are right, mate, but the majority of gamblers (probably like 90%) are only gambling for the purpose of earning from it and not to have fun. Later today, a friend of mine told me that a lady gambled off more than $300 in a local casino shop that's close to my area. According to my friend's story, the lady was a delivery agent who came to deliver some goods to her customer but just decided to go gamble and make some extra money from the casino, but she totally lost all the money she brought to gamble with and still did an extra transfer to the cashier because she spent all the cash she had on her. The part of that story that shocked me was that the woman was married because she had a wedding ring on her hand and was even old enough to have had kids, and my question is, what if it was the money that was supposed for the family or the business she came for? Some people are just drawn to the effects of gambling.

We all like advancing people to gamble responsibly but it's not that easy for many people out there, some people are better off with gambling, they are the type that get addicted to anything they do, such people have to stay away from gambling because no matter how hard they try to gamble responsibly they will go off the safe route and cross the boundary, especially if they are winning more often than they used to.

More winning can trigger gambling addiction in such people than others, the truth is addiction is addiction and no one is special when it comes to fighting addiction, even if you lock an addicted gambler in a strong cell for many years, how about the mind? They can just start feeding the habit in person, which is why I believe that stopping gambling addiction starts from your mind.

You have to reject gambling from the mindset, and your actions will stay off gambling, whatever a human plans to do comes from the mind first, the rest is base on time to carry out the action, it can be in seconds, minutes, hours, or even years.  
I haven't seen this on crypto casinos yet, maybe they do it too but most of them have provably fair in many games so maybe it is not the case but in the fiat world there was a scandal where casinos made people win, or even if they lost gave a lot more back when they first ever start.

This allows people to realize that they win as much as possible and even when they lose they do not lose much because they get a lot of things back. The reason was exactly what you assumed, the early times when you first start to gamble is when you are most vulnerable to manipulation, and they end up doing things that are not all that easy and causes you to be a lot more far off with things like this and should be considered very important to change in the end. So you shouldn't be fooled by early wins.

The same thing could be said with trading though. It's not really a gamble per se, but you can gamble on what to invest and still possibly hit it big. It's all a matter of how you understand and do it imo. Not realizing that gambling is an entertainment activity is the problem, not gambling itself.

Its just like we do with video games where we sometimes spend money for in-app purchases just to boost our gaming experience, we pay for this in-app purchases without expecting to gain any monetary value in return, that is same way we are supposed to treat gambling, but unfortunately, several of us, out of greed for money, end up taking gambling as a source of income there by getting addicted to it.
100% agree. This ideology was something I've always remembered whenever someone complains that gambling is wrong or something. No, it's not, and if it actually is, then literally every single thing that we pay for to entertain ourselves would then be wrong. Gambling os to have fun, to entertain, this is regardless of you have the possibility of hitting it big or not. I mean you're not a genius, so the idea that you can hit it big in gambling surely wasn't an idea that originated from you, hundreds of thousands probably had the same idea and do you hear those thousands in the news about hitting it big? Probably not.

The important thing is that we have provided useful suggestions for them. If they can't do it, that's up to them because they should be responsible for themselves when gambling. And we also can't force them to follow what we suggest because they have their own desires.

Getting more wins can trigger gambling addiction because they will think that they can win one more time. But that doesn't guarantee they can win the next round, so they must be aware of what they are doing. And if they are already addicted to gambling, they will not be able to realize that it is too late. But even if they realize too late that they are addicted to gambling, they can still reduce their gambling addiction.

That's why we have to manage our thoughts so that we don't think about gambling all the time, especially if we realize that we have other things to do.

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  Grin
Yes correct, very few becomes rich because mostly people who gambles only think straight that they need to gamble and win so that they can be easily to get rich. We should avoid that kind of thinking because it will only make us more addict and also will give us bad result in our finances. We should learn to manage our emotions towards gambling so we cannot go wrong.

Yes, every gambler definitely has thoughts like that, using gambling to get rich, even if they fail, they will keep trying until they get the results they expect, but they don't realize that they have spent too much money just to chase their losses, a gambler's attitude that I don't like. is when they continuously chase losses but always get zero results, gambling cannot be used as a source of income, let alone to become rich. The only ones who are getting richer are those who have gambling businesses who will continue to siphon money from their users until they run out if they can't controls themselves. Of course, as you said this will have a bad impact on their lives and financial condition.

One one thing I have noticed about gambling is that before you win a thousand box, they might have milk you of more than that.
[I just want to use this medium to appeal to the younger generation, please stay off gambling, if you must do so, gamble responsible, don't take it as your only source of living so it wouldn't milk you dry.
Well, this is exactly what many of us have always advocated for. personally, I have always been of this believe that gambling was not invented to become a major and source of income to any one, people just find it easy to abuse stuffs as gambling.

Even the casinos do not advertise gambling to be a source of income for gamblers, but rather, they advertise gambling to be a creational type of entertainment, which means that, gamblers are supposed to take gambling as an entertainment, not a source of income.

Its just like we do with video games where we sometimes spend money for in-app purchases just to boost our gaming experience, we pay for this in-app purchases without expecting to gain any monetary value in return, that is same way we are supposed to treat gambling, but unfortunately, several of us, out of greed for money, end up taking gambling as a source of income there by getting addicted to it.

Well, you know, for most people into gambling, this kinda hits home. But the whole idea of not depending on gambling for your cash is basically to keep people from losing their shirts, especially those who aren't exactly pros at it. So, let's say you're one of those people who's got the skills and can show you're a winner in the gambling scene. Would you still be like, "Nah, I'm good, I'll pass on the easy money"?

Think of gambling as a game, where in every game there are winners and there are losers, it's better if they think about it.

Of course, we all know that there are more losers than winners, the casino platform cannot keep up if there are more winners than losers but eventually, the winner here is the casino platform, but playing for fun and not expecting profit makes us a winner also.

Setting up a casino is a business it's not a cheap business and for them to recover their cost and continue to be operational they need more losers than winners if you're not comfortable with this fact then you better off playing games like a scramble or a game of chess but still it's hard to capture the excitement the casino is bringing.

Today I want to take a deep dive into gambling and how negatively it has impacted our society;

Growing up into a man I got used to gambling believing it will change my current financial status, which I was wrong, it was quite the opposite, not that am not seeing money, I was but I was too fix in making it through it.

When I finally quit the addiction, I realized that I was doing better than I even thought,

Unfortunately many will still get milked out even more, and this includes readers on here, people are too addicted to gambling and they risk money they don't plan on losing to gamble, that's why they end up looking wretched, how come you are going down without you noticing where things went wrong?

That's because they still believe that there is hope left if they continue, and it's hurting them badly, this is something I can never do, I am very ambitious but not to the extent of gambling like someone who is hypnotized by a witch creature.

People don't listen to advice but that doesn't mean we will stop warning them, there are few people that cares about themselves and the decisions they make, we are doing this for such people, thanks for sharing OP, those who will listen will listen and those who wouldn't will look away and still do stupid things.

I know someone that spends more on gambling than for their family's needs. A bit funny but yeah that's the reality of my neighborhood. Lottery, cock fight and cara y cruz are some of those examples. I know that gambling is for entertainment purposes only but for them it's the way to get money aside from their full time job as a spearo. One time they even seek for help on social media to raise funds for their sick adopted child. Addiction on gambling could literally kill us if we are irresponsible. 😅
This case is almost the same as several in my country and I am sure that almost all gambling addicts from lower middle class economies mostly do the same thing, especially if an unemployed person is not much different, they always consider gambling as a source of their income but in the end they actually end up fell into poverty because of that gambling and did not earn anything except losing a lot of money.

There are even worse stories, sometimes when an addict doesn't know how to make money anymore to gamble, he raises donations for one of his sick relatives, but he doesn't use the donated money to pay for his sick family in the hospital, but instead uses the money to gamble. Until it runs out, addicts who are crazy like that are hard to save, that should be a lesson to people not to be like that, gamble wisely so they can survive an addiction that can harm people around us.

Is it just me or this topic title have already been used a couple of times here in the community, but still gambling and it's effect is something that needs to be emphasized more in the community because the toll of the effect are somewhat devastating and life threatening too but that's if only you see it as means of accumulating income while it should be the opposite of that. Gambling is pretty simple though, I mean if you are playing and making predictions on the account of enjoying yourself, I don't think you will be affected by any effect that it provides.

The problem nowadays as I have already said other times is that the economy is stretching and is not that good for a lot of people who rely only on a less than average salary and there are a lot of such people.They start gambling in order to relieve stress and thinking that if we hit anything it will be good.They are soon to be sucked into gambling addiction as they start digging for more information and they are bombarded by Youtube max win videos,so called "strategies" and other bullshit which are not real at all,that is the real problem we need to address.

Is it just me or this topic title have already been used a couple of times here in the community, but still gambling and it's effect is something that needs to be emphasized more in the community because the toll of the effect are somewhat devastating and life threatening too but that's if only you see it as means of accumulating income while it should be the opposite of that. Gambling is pretty simple though, I mean if you are playing and making predictions on the account of enjoying yourself, I don't think you will be affected by any effect that it provides.
