Let's be realistic here, gambling saving lives in this context of relating it with inflation is only when we are winning and not losing on our bets we are playing while gambling, in the sense that some will assume that the inflow of income towards the game they played and won is as against the impeding inflation they might be facing with the economy, but i don't know what if the reverse is the case, whereby one is gambling and nothing is coming forth, could we still say its against inflation when we are not making money.
What about those who have been given an opportunity to work due to the booming industry of gambling? When there is an inflation, a lot of issues can then arise, I think this includes recession too and one of its effect is people can get laid-off from their jobs but they don't need to worry anymore since there must be a lot of opening spots in the gambling industry right now. Like I said earlier, they are booming.

This clearly shows that the effects of the recession can't penetrate on them. So for the gamblers, they shouldn't feel despair if they can't win their bets. They should only realize that they are already helping someone indirectly with it. Apart from that, they must also experience a rush feeling when playing their favourite gambling game.

In a nutshell your topic simply means that gambling can be relied on in the context of it saving lives, I don't think that's quite accurate because gambling is a game with uncertain outcomes and it actually destroys moe than it saves lives. Gambling is all about taking risks nothing more your friend actually got lucky but it doesn't mean he's going to continue having winning streaks, it's even possible for him to lose everything he has won if he isn't careful. As someone more experienced than him give him a proper orientation about this lifestyle before he starts making mistakes

I agree with Each and every one of your words, therefore I have seen that those who can trust the game to get out of bad things, or a bad moment, well it is something that I will not Accept much , in the same way I think that the only way to Accept it is that they can play in a casino, but in demo mode I recommend it, oh yes you can play whatever you want, but with real money, it is something that can be very delicate, especially if they do it and if they lose money that Should not be lost.

I was in pain today because of the incident that I saw in a physical casino shop. Although I am not a fan of going to physical casinos, I prefer playing my bet in an online casino, but today I wish to go to the physical casino so that I can see other gamblers and maybe get experience, but I end up sad. 
 
In the casino, I saw an elderly man crying in regret. I was concerned to know what the cause of his tears was, so I woke up to him to ask, and then the man narrated what happened. The man told me that he works in a construction site from morning just to get something to feed his family, because they haven’t seen food since yesterday morning, so after work from morning to night, the contractor tells them that they will all be paid tomorrow, so he begs the contractor to give him some money for transportation. When the contactor gave him some money, he then had to take a walk to see the nearest casino so that he could use the money and stake a bet to buy something for his family to feed on. After he staked the money, he ended up losing the game. That is why he is crying in regret. 
 
So I ask him, does he actually gamble? He said not at all; he just came to try his luck and find something to feed his family. Then I asked him, Can he still remember the mistake that he made when he staked his first money? Then he said he saw no mistake. All that is involved in gambling is luck. I said okay, I will give him money to try betting, because I also don’t have the money that will be enough to feed his family, so he staked another bet. To my surprise, he won the game and got the money he needed. 
 
What I want to know is: Did I do a good job by using gambling to save him? Or do I just make him have an interest in gambling as a source of income?

Do you really mean that a gambling can save life of people due to how this inflation is going on currently in the all world for me I don’t actually agree with that. Because is not that a gambling is a way of success of income which you will say it might change the life in this currently situation that so many people are facing in the all worlds.

Because if you observe some things in gambling is not all people that understand the gambling since is involved of risks and also deserve a lot of knowledge before some can introduce themselves into it, unlike the others the business that with little knowledge some can afford it and establish limitations.

Though lets face it, gambling is a difficult game; your heart was in the right place. Its like providing a band-aid: although it would feel wonderful for now, it wont address the underlying issue. The human mind isn't designed to resist the thrill of a potential win, even if the odds are stacked against us. Though its a basic need, it can have major consequences. Remember; gambling is a business; it is not a fairy tale; the house always win.

Gamble will get much more easily available as technology develops. Therefore, it is imperative to support sensible gambling. Its important knowing the risks, establishing limitations, and never wager more than you could afford to lose. Although your intentions were good, occasionally the greatest approach to assist someone is to point them in the direction of long-term, rather than temporary repairs.

Well, let's assume that it's all just an illusion that is nothing more than a dream that is difficult to come true. I don't completely believe the story in the OP, but gambling is not about fighting inflation. No one knows when you win, but your chances of losing are much higher than you think. A person must avoid gambling if they want to fight inflation, so they should not gamble at all.

I know that some gamblers have considered gambling as a source of income, but only a few of them actually get what they want. Gambling is for fun, not to be expected as part of a way to fight inflation. This is never normal and they have to change their mindset.
Thats true. The percentage of gamblers that are lucky enough to win big in a year and become wealthy is low. I dont see it as anyway of fighting inflation rather it is a way of increasing inflation. This is because if everyone goes into game ling or 80% of the population starts gambling what will be the faith of the country when all the money is going into the gambling industry alone?

Anyone who has considered gambling as a source of income will end up losing everything entirely. Gambling is supposed to be a secondary monetary aid not a primary source of income. I believe that you hardly see someone taking gambling as a source of income ever becoming wealthy in life. And it is because any profit or money they have they end up gambling with it. They barely look out for their family or people close to them.

You acted very noble, having done this, you helped this person in his difficult life situation. However, if he has such a bad life economic position, then he should not deal with gambling at all. Since this occupation brings chaotic money into life, as well as the loss of honest savings. And if someone has a family, then you cannot let chances determine your fate. Everything needs to be stable and calm.

Therefore, I am against gambling among the poor.

OP's action is considered noble because it helped him get some money to cover his family's expenses. But perhaps it unintentionally sparked in him the idea of ​​gambling to earn income. So I personally would not welcome this action because in the long run it could cause unpredictable consequences for that guy if he falls into addiction.
That guy was wrong from the start by gambling with money he couldn't afford to lose and OP unintentionally supported him by giving him another chance to gamble. In that case OP should advise him to stay away from gambling and find other ways to help him. I think there is no shortage of ways to help someone if we want to help them.

I don't know what the title has to do with your story, but anyway, based on your story, you have achieved both. You saved him and you made him interested in gambling as a source of income because you did not mention that you discouraged him after you gave him money and you won. You should have told him that he should not do it again, putting money intended for his family to gamble.

We should discourage people from using money allocated for food for the table. As the head of the family, your obligation is to secure the family's basic need, which is food.
But if that person use gambling as a source of income, he will only regret because he can lose much money without he can imagine. Gambling is not a source of income so he doesn't need to thinks like that instead just use gambling to have fun. That will be better for him because he can playing gambling without thinks to make money and only fills his spare time by playing gambling.

If he is lucky and win the money, that will be a good for him because he can recover his lose before and make money from gambling. But that doesn't mean he can use gambling as a source of income and he needs to think to search for the other ways to make money. We must educate people not to use money for fills their daily needs to playing gambling because that can makes them lose that money and they will difficult to fills their daily needs.

You both are actually stupid.

1. That man havent learned anything. He got involved into risk, and he continue to do that.
2. You are stupid because you have landed money to a stranger, moreover a stranger who is a gambler.
3. If you really wanted to do a good job, you should have bought this man food, so he could feed his family.

And there is no end of this story. You just left him in a casino with money? Prolly his family is still hungry then.

This response  really crack my ribs Grin Grin Grin

Lots of misconception in the Op thread aside that the title has no relation with the content of the post. Sincerely speaking, I rush here to read the post because of the title; was curious to know how gambling save life and what joins gambling and inflation.

Secondly, he did the right thing but in a wrong way. He probably created a problem and mistaken it as a being generous or helper. If the man is not a regular gambler before, he may start gambling and see it as second alternative.

It's good to be kind but allow people to face the consequences when gambling is involved. Let them face the reality of gambling, do not give them a mistaken belief.

I understand some situation that some people may be pushed into doing something that weren't meant for them to do, but how on earth would I risk my last card when I got family, wife and children to feed and thinking that miracle would happen putting that money into gambling at this very situation knowing fully well that this is a 50-50 kind of chance, this isn't the right way to gamble by gambling your last penny when the result can go either ways.


Well, Op I don't really understand the title of this thread with the subject matter, I suggest next time you should be more constructive and there should be a relationship between the thread title and the message which you are trying to convey.

           -     Maybe because of what you did, you could have been an instrument for him to be able to gamble again, and maybe in that case he will get lucky, and that's how he got lucky and went home somehow with something to feed his family.

Therefore, if he looked at him, he was really unlucky that day, and at least it helped in some way. Even if we say that he lost in the casino, if ever he lost, but he won, and that's why he's still happy.

In the majority of cases when you gamble to get some extra money you end up like this old man.Never you should try to make extra money to feed your family from gambling as it almost never works.Nowadays I know that inflation is to the roof and especially in poor countries is even more but the people should not in any way try and solve this problem through gambling.I see here where I live that poor people tend more to go to the only casinos licensed by the state and in order to improve their life they ruin it.Some people I know told me the hope to win big in slots,to change a bit their poverty and they are firmly convinced to go there.I told them to at least play Poker because they would have more possibilities to win yet they don't listen and continue degrading their way of life.

OP, it means that you are a life saver and it was you that gave the eldery man that luck which he had through the money that you gave to him. Maybe, when I will need you to come and stand by my side when I am gambling so that you can help me hold the money that I will be using to place my bet to see if I can tap from your luck whenever you give me the money  Grin. Luck is a mystery and nobody understands how it comes and go, if not there will be no casinos anymore because everyone will place their bet at the right time.
I agree, OP, not only did you do the right thing, but you also showed nobility and that is commendable.
 It’s also important that you gave this old man the opportunity to tell you his story and you listened to it to the end.  And at the same time, you did not brush it aside and did not drive the old man away from you. 
By the way, perhaps the fact that you listened to him also helped the old man cope with such a critical life situation.  Well, another gift as a result of winning also brought positivity to your communication.  I don't think the old man is addicted to gambling.  Still, this is more typical for young people. 
In general, OP, you did everything right.

Even if this guy catches a break here, gambling tends to do more harm than good. By giving him money to gamble, there is that chance he sees gambling as a quick way to make money when in reality it is very risky and unreliable.

Maybe next time, it would be better to assist in a different way, like giving food or helping to find a solution for long-term financial stability. The dissemination of knowledge on how to manage money and making some form of income-generating activities safer could also be a good move.

The bottom line is that your intentions are good. However, it is important to think about the long-term effect of our actions, even if they do involve something as capricious as gambling.
