Well, weather you did a good job or not and if you are saying the truth, what matters now is that the man was lucky this time and was able to go home with something which was actually what he needed. So, I'll say it's good you helped him.

The first experience he got was a lesson for him not to use gambling as reliable source to make money. I am not judging him because I know that some people are facing a lot of difficulty in their life and the situation can make them take some crazy decisions but no matter what the situation is, I always advice people to think twice before they go ahead with any decision, so that they can peacefully handle what ever result they get.

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?

Sorry, but you yourself know that this your story is nothing but fake, a cock and bull story if you allow me use that.
In this time and age, a grown up man will not enter a casino to gamble with money he is supposed to use to buy food for his family, specially when he is some one that have never gambled before, it's only addicted gamblers that do take such risk.

To actually set the record straight, in general, what you did for the man is not bad at all, atleast, you gave him another opportunity to try to recover his lost money, and luckily, he did recover the money, but this kind gesture would have been really nice if only it was a true life, not a cooked one, for like I said before, this is nothing but a cooked story.

An interesting story, but it cannot be normalized, maybe at that time he was lucky to win his gambling when you gave him a second chance to gamble, but what if he lost the second time, would you give him money again, of course it is difficult not to give money again if that happens? in the old man could not go home because he did not have money, which he should have used to go home but used in gambling then lost, but luckily he won so he could buy food for his family.

Yes, I'm worried about that person having a bad mindset, motivated by getting money at gambling quickly, so he will be attracted continuously, even though he is old and mature, when he gets a salary the next day he wants to multiply his money back at gambling, and that's not a good thing in my opinion, you need to pay attention to that person so that he has good money management and does not rashly use his money when he has money.

First of all, it is worth noting that in his place, he should not have gone to the casino in the first place, if he had very little money and it was his last. He understood perfectly well that he could easily lose this money. Why cry later if it was clear from the start? Regarding your action, I will say that you know better whether you did well or not. If you gave money with the purpose of helping a person, then good. If you gave money with the purpose of luring a person into gambling, then bad. I think you did well.

Gambling isn't a sustainable source of income on long term, therefore it can't proportionate a reliable source of money for this man to feed his family. Maybe his wage isn't enough to pay for all his needs, although gambling won't be the solution for his problems, anyway. As I see, you are trying to extinguish fire with more fire, as besides not having money to pay for food, this man is also going to waste all his money directly to the casino's pockets.

He should be looking for another alternatives to solve the problem he is facing. Gambling isn't one of them, rather gambling is a hobby activity for people who are in a fine financial condition, so they can give themselves the right to spend some money gambling. And in my opinion, you didn't do well by donating him money for gambling purposes, as you are encouraging a disfunctional behavior from his side. You should encourage him to save money to buy food.

This man is clearly not educated on gambling matters, as he has the wrong assumption it can generate income to feed his family.

So does it mean if he was paid his money in full that's how he would have gone to gamble it all? Because that's exactly what I feel would have happened, judging from the entire scenario that surround this story, as it's obvious this man is slightly an addicted to gambler, because inasmuch as gambling is a game of luck, it's not what he ought he would have gone into with the last money he had to feed himself and family that day after work, because in cases like this, gambling is meant to be a back-up plan and not the main plan, so that if our expectation doesn't go as planned, he works with the original plan.

So on the contrary, I wish to thank O.P for helping a fellow gambler in need, but however, it's high time people stop making such expensive mistakes.

Gambling is not done for profit and that is what you should have let the old man understand by not giving him any money like you claim so that he can learn a hard lesson and will never think of using gamble to double his money again.

From what the story says, it shows that you have just triggered another poor man into gambling and he might continue gambling for profit even if he is losing because he will believe that he can win the next game.

OP, you should get a suitable topic for your story.

Op the story you narrated is very far from the topic. I must say your explanation looks somehow fabricated to me, or a cook up story. And secondly I don't see how what you did for the man relates to "gambling can save lifes to the word inflation" gambling can not be used as a hedge over inflation. Gambling is for fun and not something that can generate income on daily basis to be classified as live saving. If gambling was that easy to make money in this time of inflation, I think the casino would have shutdown due to regular wining. If what you said Is true that you gave the man money to stake and he won, I just see it as he was lucky the second time, because had it been he lost several times after giving him money I don't think you will have seen it as a life saving business.

Your story is complete trash and reads like it was made up so you could talk about a fairytale ending where you were the hero. Let's say it was real though, what you have described is a gambler that is in heavy denial and when people get in that deep it is never enough for them. He may have won that first bet, but it is just a trigger for him to put even more money back in on another bet. Behind all of that he would rather throw away what little he has instead of buying a meal for his family, he sounds like an absolute scumbag to be frank, using excuses for why he is such a failure but not providing when he already has the means to do so. You didn't help at all, let's face it.

Gambling can never be a savior to those who are battling with inflation of what they and their families would eat. What gambling does to people is it collects the ones they have, giving them little to think that their hope to make it big in life would be from gambling.

OP, as you have indirectly come to the rescue of the elderly man, to win the money he needed, don't you think he will repeat the same thing the next time the construction company he works in, doesn't pay him enough money to take care of his family since gambling is try your luck procedure.

OP, don't be surprised when you see the elderly man repeating the same thing he's regretting some other time. I believe he will come trying his luck again since he won by a luck trial.

Wanting to analyze your question directly actually you could have made him interested in the business by giving him the money. Suppose you gave him money and he placed a bet on gambling and won but that is not the end because it made him greedy for gambling. Later he would save money and place a gambling bet and lose. Gambling is proven to be a game of luck so it doesn't always win. If you want lend him the money and ask him to repay it in daily wages. We don't all have the same financial position so we shouldn't call anyone to gamble.

I don't know whether this story is true or made up, but responding to your title, I can say that gambling does not save anyone from inflation, because gambling is not designed for that. In gambling, no one can guarantee whether you can win or not, especially in games that are based on luck, in this type of game the possibility of someone winning is lower, and also not everyone can win the bet. Since your chances of winning at gambling are quite low, you can lose your money at any time at gambling, and how can something as uncertain as this save people from inflation? and therefore gambling cannot save anyone from inflation.

I am not really sure whether what you did was a good thing or not because it is quite difficult to judge, but at least your action has made him able to get more money to buy food for his family but of course this is not something that will always work because gambling in any condition is a game of luck, if today it can work well then tomorrow the result can be the opposite so it would be better if you meet him again to tell him not to repeat what he has done before because it is an action that can make his life more difficult.

From my perspectives, the Op helped the man in 2 ways

He made the man to understand his mistakes, in the sense that he shouldn't make such a mistake again as he is not a gambler, but funny enough that he already know that winning is by luck.
He tried to make the man to understand that if it wasn't him he wouldn't have had money to give to his family and he might not also have the money for transportation the next day to go back to work.

What you did is great. You are generous. But the man needs to realize that what he did is too risky although it is not easy. Maybe he even has loan borrowed already and thinking of not borrowing or maybe no one wanted to borrow him money. But if possible he can get a loan from a friend, I think it is the best way than to gamble with the little amount of money that he has with him.

I like that fact that the elderly man already knew that gamble is a luck luck thing, but he shouldn't try and gamble with amount that he knows he can not afford to lose at that moment, imagine if the op didn't visited the casino what could have happened? Maybe the man would have walked to his house and still ended up not buying anything for his family, and if he had children they will be the ones to suffer most as their dad didn't bring anything home as he has used the money for their daily feeding to Gamble for profits.

Lesson is, not being contented is the reason for most loses in gambling.

What you did may not be bad because it was a sign of compassion on him but that does not mean that next time he would get back his money that he lost. He was lucky to have won back something that he needed. Gambling is not really for such exercise. If you are gambling with the urgent need to make profit then you may run into more loses because you will find yourself restaking to regain your loses.

Thus, it is not responsible to use money meant for family use to gamble even though someone can be lucky to win sometimes. He is lucky to have been safed by you, it doesn't happen all the time.

He playing gambling and lose his money. That is what happens to him. He decide to playing gambling and win some money but that is not work for him and only makes him lose his money. He already makes a mistake by using gambling to make money. That is a wrong thing if he use his salary to playing gambling. He can not win in gambling if he doesn't have luck so he must not playing gambling in the other days.

What you did only tells to his minds that gambling can be a source of income for him and I bet he will returns to casino in the other days to test his luck again. But he could lose his money as before and if he can't controls himself, he will lose all of his money without winning any money. You can safe him by giving your money to him every time he losses because you will not always there. What you can hope is he will not return to casino and playing gambling again and hopes he will win like before.

Just like others, I have doubt that this really happened and not just made up to post here, because it's not realistic. But anyway, if this is true, IMO you just encourage the guy to gamble as a way to double/triple his money. It would be better if you just gave him money to buy food for his family and go home. But you lend him money to play again, fortunately he became lucky. But because of this, probably he is now confident that in gambling you can really make money and it's ok to bet even that's the only money you have in your pocket. Well, for me, what you did is not right.

I don't know that you did good or bad by helping him because you gave him money to gamble and his luck helped him to win the bet and if he somehow gets a mindset that gambling can help him earn money then that's going to be harmful for him as we all know that gambling can't be a dependable source of income.

However, from humanity point of view, you did pretty well by supporting him, and because of your help he could feed his family at least for one day. I hope he won't stake his income again because if he keeps doing that and his luck won't favor him then he'll do very wrong with the people who rely on him.

I just wanted to ask, what is the meaning of the title of this topic? And what does it have to do with the rest of your post?

Take your flowers for being the realest on this thread and the first to detect this BS!!!

What nonsense did I just read, @OP???

You are just lucky that there is no "demerit" option, because the lies and insincerity in the post are too obvious.

I can t believe what OP has said so far because it feels unreal and framed out. Some persons would rush into the gambling sectionn and frame one or more story, combine them just to make a gambling post. Its not compulsory to create a topic when there are other gambling topics that we can contribute and dsicuss in.

I support your action but funny enough thereis nothing like demerit.
