Topic: Gambling and it effects - page 9. (Read 1738 times)
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. 😅
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,
Fast forward to yesterday when I go into a betting shop to see someone, I was shock to see some of my guys in the neighborhood which I knew they where doing well, now looking wreshed an tattered.
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.
No matter how hard you campaign to stay away from gambling, remember that it will never be successful, gambling is like fire - when you are able to control it then it becomes your friend but when you are not able to control it then it becomes an enemy that destroys your life, forever we will continue to be presented with cases of people who go bankrupt because of gambling as well as people who suddenly get rich because of gambling, i continue to encourage every gambler to be able to gamble responsibly, the effect of gambling without control is addiction and that is what actually becomes the enemy of many gamblers.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.

There are many gamblers who have experienced failure so that they always experience bad things such as losing all their possessions or even the destruction of their family life and all of these are the consequences of gambling.
If we talk about getting rich from gambling the only people who can get wealth from this industry are the casino owners who are the main actors in the gambling business and what gamblers get is only a small percentage of wealth because the most important thing is sense of pleasure and satisfaction.
I don't know what they will do when gambling but at least you and all of us on this forum always give good advice or suggestions that might be very useful but whether they want to or not all decisions are in their own hands because all the risks or impacts of their gambling will be feel it not us.

That's right, making gambling the only source of income is a big mistake because gambling has the risk that at any time gamblers can lose all their money and because of this risk gambling is very risky and it is not wise to make this a job. And even if someone gambles, they should gamble responsibly where they understand that their gambling activities cannot be haphazard and must be full of calculations to avoid the risk that they will lose all their money and worse that it could affect their relationship with their family.

And I also agree with your opinion that gambling is like fire, if we can control the fire it certainly won't harm ourselves, meaning if we can control gambling then of course we are farthest from the risks or impacts of gambling.
This gambling section is really useful, not only for knowing how to gamble responsibly but also for sharing their gambling addiction experiences. It's really insightful when someone shares their story, and it leaves us second-guessing of our choice about gambling. We learn about gambling and its effects from the stories shared by people who have gambled before or are still gambling. We need more people who share their experience with gambling because more gambling ads are legal than awareness against gambling. Movies, shared experiences, and news are the sources from which we know about gambling, so learn from them and be aware.
Gambling had their own positive effect because of the more win from the gambling site.The gambler can start the business in the real life from the money he had received from the gambling site.If the gambling money was huge like 6000$,So the gambler use fifty percentage of the money to the gambling.Use the remaining money again to the gambling site.If he is so lucky,he will get the biggest win again in the same game.
What you're saying is impossible; you cannot call that positive effect if what you stated is not true. Maybe some achieve that, but not all, so keep on track with reality and stop giving such an idea that is good to be true. I'm not saying it's impossible, but don't engrave such an idea on the reader that sounds like a fantasy. Let's be real: even if you earn what you've said, it's not sure that he or she will use some of it for business. Not all people or gamblers are the same. "The more you win from the gambling site," that phrase is nearly impossible unless you have a lot of luck.

Honestly, this sounds like a fairy tale lol.
So, you're saying that someone who gambles expect something good to happen in his bets so he could start his own business? Well, I'm pretty sure many would become disappointed, because when you gamble you will probably have more losses than you win and how were you able to start your business if you keep spending your money in gambling?
If you want to start a business, go ahead and set aside some money intended to your business and the others are for your leisure including gambling.

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.
They start gambling because they are curious about what gambling is like without thinking about whether they experienced losses when they first gambled. And they also still don't know what to do but as soon as they see the gambling, they think of trying it one more time or several more times. And suddenly they get a win so they think they can get another win. They don't think that they can win because of luck and instead try to chase their winnings.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.
And if they use gambling to get entertainment, they can think about how long they will gamble and when they should stop. And they will not think about spending all their money at one time because they are not after winning but just want to get pleasure from gambling. They also try to reduce their gambling time if they feel that gambling has given them more losses than usual because they don't want to become addicted to gambling.

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
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.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
For me is, there's nothing wrong with that kind of mindset and I don't think that there's enough reason to avoid it. What people need to do is to make it easy every time they play. Remember that in every emotion you feel, your decision making and your body movement will react. It means that you might make a move that would make you lose like playing in a rush, wrong placing of bets and so on.

Growing up into a man I got used to gambling believing it will change my current financial status...
And here we are... many people start crying and cursing everything after losing in gambling. I guess we all wish to make some "easy money" with gambling, and sometimes we get lucky (some people can even get extremely lucky) but it's still gambling, there are no guarantees.
Gambling can have positive or negative effects, I would say all that depends on us... and only on us! We should know how much we can risk, and what odds we chase, we need to know that we can easily lose as we can win. If someone gambles only to win I would say that person is blind, and it will hit his head sooner or later. And that person can cry later, but it's all in vain. Before you decide to do something risky try to do it with open eyes, at least you will know what is waiting for you.
I've heard a lot of cries here in this forum and outside, mostly in the chatroom of a gambling site but I am always curious on what they are thinking when they start to gamble. This business ain't a charity, they will take more as much as possible and would not even let you win especially in casino games. Sports betting is the key to a win. Yes, it's low profits but still a win.

In my opinion, this is good advice, unfortunately, many of us don't care, whether the advice is good or bad, regarding the impact of gambling on us, sometimes we realize everything when we lose and lose everything because of gambling.For me, everyone here is an adult, especially those involved in the world of gambling, of course they understand what is bad and what is good for themselves, the point is: We always remember to gamble professionally, meaning: separate gambling from real life activities, that each of us has responsibilities that must be carried out and carried out, gambling is allowed, the important thing is that we don't lose our common sense, there is a lot that must be done to achieve something useful for us without considering gambling as the main source in real life.
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.
Moreover, counseling should be done to maintain religious and social values and laws should be enacted to punish gambling severely from the government level.
Gambling in our country is already a criminal offense. so the government rule is already there, but people still do it. economic situation of everyone in our country is not that good, so they often try to find a way for earning quick money. and they focus on gambling most of the time. from a religious view as a Muslim gambling is not good. but there are other religion that people follow in our country. it's a mixed religious country so putting only one rules for everyone won't be a good idea. if you are a religious person then you must avoid it. but if not then people should know about the bad and good side of gambling. that way we can prevent people from getting addicted or making that decisions. The thing about young people getting addicted to gambling is from the lack of knowledge. as I said before it happens because of people are searching for quick money. if we can somehow create opportunities for youngsters to make money other way, then this problem could be solved to some extent. but punishing them won't help that much. because self willingness is the key to avoid something entirely.
instead of telling people to stay away from gambling, share the knowledge. show them every good and bad side of gambling. that way they can choose whether if they want to gamble or not. or if they want to gamble how should they proceed.
Right 💡 Idea.Gambling and betting in our country has gone to such a level that it is not only limited to the elderly but has spread to school, college and university students which is now a serious concern. In order to inform them about the dangers of gambling, the bad aspects of gambling must be conveyed to them and counseling should be done about the dangers of gambling in the society.
Moreover, another important step is to make the parents aware because if the parents are aware, they can take care of their children. If public awareness can be created about the dangers of gambling then it will be possible to reduce the addiction to gambling at the village and urban level.
Moreover, counseling should be done to maintain religious and social values and laws should be enacted to punish gambling severely from the government level.

you are setting a bad example here mate. perspective changes from people to people and how they approach them. Your mistake was you approached gambling as a mean of income but not as a mean of entertainment. how did you get the thought that gambling can get you money for living? this kind of misunderstanding is the problem why people get addicted and why gambling milk them dry. it's every people's personal problem. how they approach gambling is how they will get treated by gambling.only gamble with what you can afford to lose. something that won't affect your daily life or your whole life. this is why people make budget for gambling. they only use what they can afford to lose and which will never affect their daily life. so the thing is the main problem is lack of knowledge. people don't understand what gambling really is, and they don't follow the rules of gambling.
instead of telling people to stay away from gambling, share the knowledge. show them every good and bad side of gambling. that way they can choose whether if they want to gamble or not. or if they want to gamble how should they proceed.
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.

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 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.
I think it's not bad to expect to win more than your bet as long as you have a budget for it, just for me.
And it's really wrong if you think of gambling as a source of income, if this is how you think of gambling, I think you have a problem.
