It is not difficult to imagine how this could be very problematic in some specific jobs, for example any job in which you manage money you need to be trusted that you are not going to steal it, and even if in those jobs you are surrounded by cameras and companies have a strict control of their employees it is easy to see how someone could get in trouble if it is found out they gamble.

And that is just one example, as I am sure that if we really sit down and think about it we could imagine a lot of scenarios in which you could be discriminated by your gambling hobby.
It is very difficult to gain trust and will not be achieved without some effort to show that they can trust us. But once we are caught doing something bad, such as gambling, people's view of us may change and they can keep their distance from us. But not everyone will do that because some of them even try to approach us and advise us to stay away from gambling and leave it forever immediately. They will say that gambling can ruin our lives. These people can give us attention, which rarely gets in the real world.

There is still some sort of discrimination in some places the moment they get to know that you are a gambler.

Sort of discrimination once they learned a person is involved in gambling? I can't imagine that.

What kind of discrimination? Can you give examples of an incident related to that?

I think that was unethical and should not be good practice.

I literally understood what he meant by some sorts of discrimination when they know that you are a gambler. It just depends on the environment you live in. In my own end, it is we the gamblers that sideline anyone that isn't a gambler. There are some activities and discussions a non gambler will not involve with us. That is just normal. If they discriminate you, form alliance with your fellow gamblers.
Yes, it is true that how a gambler is perceived and criticized depends on his environment.  In some places gambling is common and not a crime, and many families gamble together. And gambling is a serious crime in some places, where gambling is severely punished. Which totally depends on an environment
You have given the correct explanation. There are some places where gambling is completely prohibited and there are places where gambling can be played in front of everyone. If I speak for myself, I gamble and no one in my family knows.  Once the family knows then I will have to go through a lot of trouble. But after knowing this I gamble because I like to gamble so I can't stop gambling.
You can't stop gambling it sounds like you are too addicted to gambling . You must not gamble in front of your family It is a form of politeness but you should keep gambling under your control so that it does not cause you any big loss and it is better to take gambling for pleasure.
Something similar seems to be happening to him.  It may also be that he is gambling just for fun  But according to the laws of his country or according to the social order in his location gambling is considered a serious crime and bad act so he gambles secretly in plain sight. I don't think that would be a big problem for him

So as long as you are not hurting anyone, I don't think your "reputation" would go down for gambling.

Does not apply to everyone. People of different country have different culture. Some culture are conservative type and does not want to see professional people dwelling with gambling and drinking or smoking. These are the same people who are very religious. Though you are not hurting anyone, but you're setting a bad example to younger generations. Thus definitely hurt your reputation.
You might not known other cultures, but people and community like this exist.

Not sure what is wrong here? As long as you aren't affecting other people or your life isn't being affected, then everything is fine. Everyone is fine. The people around you don't give a damn about what you do in your personal life. I am sure almost everyone around you has gambled a little (buying lottery tickets also counts as gambling!) for fun. And what you do in your personal life is none of their business.

So as long as you are not hurting anyone, I don't think your "reputation" would go down for gambling.

On the one hand, the fact that you can keep your hobby a secret is good - everyone has the right to privacy and some small "sins" that it is better for no one to know about. On the other hand, there is a great danger in this that if your addiction worsens, then no one will help you because they will not be aware of this until the very end. Considering that there are finances involved that essentially affect the whole family, this is a very dangerous situation. You must think about it.

Gambling is for entertainment but there are people who do really go into certain extent which it isnt right anymore.You wouldnt really only affecting your finances but also your reputation which you had been trying out to protect yet we do really have that ego on which we do make ourselves look good in front of all people.
Some are really just too mindful which they do really end up on being too careful on what actions they would be making.This is why their movements is really that limited due to that reason.
Its not bad to gamble as long you do make yourself that responsible on different things that you do have in life.You shouldnt let it mess up your life due to uncontrolled manner.

The environment and culture around them will influence a person. So if that person engages in gambling while in his place of residence, gambling is seen as a bad thing, and that person may be subject to discrimination. But if the community where they live can see that people who play gambling or are addicted need help, they will not treat it differently and instead help people who are addicted to gambling to cure their addiction. This will look good because caring for the people around us can help people who experience addiction recover.

our environment will influence our self to be addicted in gambling or not , no matter in our country its legal and even government takes taxes from it. in some place alot different sight about people that gambling ,they look it as bad habbit and maybe need to avoid in order to safe from bad impact and reputation. moreover if its done by influencers, they will have really ugly opinion.
In my city, an environment that is famous for its gambling is an area that the police often visit just to carry out raids. The sad thing is that most of the gambling players caught from there are drug users and also people who have a low economy. your reputation will be destroyed if you are familiar with an environment full of gambling, control yourself to only play gambling with complete control over yourself, and don't be fooled by invitations from outside that come from a bad environment.
drug and gambling in some place was unseparated thing ,alot of gamblers also trapped using drag and even hard addicted. i am also heard some bad police take money from gambling traditional house to secure it when suddenly there is official ambush so they get early information. if we was famous person , better avoid gambling to make there is nothing negative news about us . as good person , always take care with our friend and circle , make sure they will trap us in negative activity.
Drug addiction and gambling are two different things. Though there is a similarity in terms of Addiction. However, people who are addicted to drugs can never get better even if they want. It cannot even be identified as a means of entertainment. There are very few people who can be good. But gambling addiction is different. Here gamblers can do anything they want. It is though but he can control gambling if he wants and consider it as a means of entertainment.

Yeah that’s certainly nothing new where local police or law enforcement are “on the take” when it comes to allowing illegal gambling establishments to operate that way they can continue to do so with out being arrested/shut down etc. This is a pretty common practice for typically anything illegal, including things like drug rings etc.

t depends on how he thinks the surrounding environment will react if he becomes known as a gambler, given his status in the community. of course, if you are a teacher, as much as possible, you need to be a good role model to your students. so if you are into gambling, better keep it to yourself because students will have different take when they learn that their teacher or professor is into gambling. also, the same when you are in the accounting department, definitely, you would always be on the lookout if they know your gambling habits. even if we say, you only gamble your own money. some people won't discard the thought that you may possibly misappropriate some funds at any moment. at the end of the day, it is indeed up to you how you handle things. and if you are maintaining your image, better take care of your gambling business discretely.
In our culture people care about other people more than how and what they want to do.
and gambling is illegal and considered as a sin - so if anyone is found gambling they feel disrespected.
Gambling never been an illegal something in my country it is the best on your own country because I know that starts from The origin gambling has been into existence at the many people has been using gambling for entertainment industry not ask if they want to use it for making money so that is why some people see gambling as a sin because they believe that gambling bring a lot of corruption it will the society why can't believe is like what entertain people around environment
Each places or country does have different perceptions and laws towards gambling which decisions and laws will really vary on certain point.Speaking about reputation then it wont really be that much of an issue.

No one does have the rights if you would make yourself get involved with gambling.Its not their money that had been spent, there are really just people who are that keen or mindful about on what other peoples

views and perception towards them.Frankly speaking where gambling do always give out that negative or bad impression towards those people who are get involved with it.

You're a professional like a lawyer or a teacher in a respected university, will it harm your reputation if people around you or your students discover that you are into gambling, you're not really a compulsive gambler but gamble for entertainment, how will you explain this to people around you or will you explain to protect your reputation or just ignore them.

As long as everything is legal it's not a big deal in my opinion. I wouldn't have thought differently about my teachers if they were regular gamblers, it rather makes them see more normal. The  only teacher I know that was a gambler was my math teacher in high school. He liked to use gambling examples during our classes. He also had some funny stories to tell from his casino days. During school trips we went to some bars together in our final year and we played some slots together. It was a great experience and he was my favourite teacher. So knowning that he gambles made him actually more likeable. I don't think that his colleagues looked differently at him only because he gambled. Probably more teacher also gambled and we just didn't know about it.
One thing we want to distinguish is that teachers impart knowledge to people. Guides people to the right path. But we forget that he is also human. He may also have various desires and aspirations. If the teacher can be more close with the students I think it is more beneficial for the students. When a student can become close to a teacher, he can gain the most knowledge from that teacher. Gambling here is not a problem if we don't see it only as negatively.

I think people who have dignity or a college degree will gamble in an isolated place in the sense that they will look at their surroundings before they gamble. but like everyone else they sometimes neglect reputation in order to be able to get entertainment in their spare time and this tends not to be a big problem for someone who has a good reputation in the community. I have met many people like this, even among them there are those who like to chat with their students at the same time they are playing gambling.
Gone are the days where gambling is said to cause damage to your reputation. Almost everyone now is already engaged in gambling, some are just good enough to secretly gamble on their own. Especially that online gambling is now more popular, then we can do gambling secretly without the awareness of other people. So for me, gambling won’t be a big issue at all even if you own the highest position in a university, provided that you never let your students see you are in gambling.

I don't think the stigma has vanished yet for those people who are known to gamble. There is still some sort of discrimination in some places the moment they get to know that you are a gambler. In our country, the words gambling, gambler, and betting still have a negative connotation which makes it awkward if your name happen to be dragged by gambling.

Indeed, the majority is now engaged in different kinds of gambling. May it be in physical casinos, online website, or sports betting. Other people prefer to hide their identities despite gambling being considered normal nowadays in some places. I believe this is because of confidentiality purposes related to reputation concerns and avoiding public scrutiny. While there are people who don't give a damn if they are seen or known gambling because they don't care about their reputation and what other people would say. I guess it's just really a matter of what suits you best and what will let your mind be at peace.

If the country is liberal in its outlook on gambling, then if you're a professor or lawyer, or teacher that will not be a big issue, but if you're in a country where gambling is taboo or illegal you have to keep your activity in private, there's already online casinos where you can gamble in privacy, but you cannot expose your activity in private to avoid being judge as an irresponsible professional, you have to be discreet in your activity.
We have different views depending on which country we live in and the influence of aspects of social life, such as your definition above that if the country is liberal then people don't care about other people's lives and vice versa if in an illegal country gambling activities will give a negative reputation because of inappropriate activities as a teacher. So I agree that we should maintain our privacy and do not need to expose our gambling activities to anyone because online gambling no one knows that we often play gambling in private room.
Most countries have linen law on gambling and in most countries, gambling is respected and played that influential people in society, but in some other places due with poverty and crime have made gambling lost its glory and have been seen in a bad light.
But aside from that, gambling depends on individual coordination and how he/she carries himself along the line.
our environment will influence our self to be addicted in gambling or not , no matter in our country its legal and even government takes taxes from it. in some place alot different sight about people that gambling ,they look it as bad habbit and maybe need to avoid in order to safe from bad impact and reputation. moreover if its done by influencers, they will have really ugly opinion.

That right one of the major contributor to taxes is the gambling casinos because they have a large amount of earnings for every player make a game them, and also it is the responsible of the player if they got addicted because the first place casino just want to bring the entertainment to them and of course because of the influence of other people some of us would like to try playing gambling and because they losses a lot they want to get back those losses by another playing of gambling that's makes another debt to them and wasted even they savings it is better if they still consciously to the things and action they do.
