It all depends on the gambling game that is being played and how much you bet on gambling, and if you only bet in small amounts maybe it can be called entertainment.
and if you bet a large amount in my opinion it is not entertainment but a business to get big profits, but both are difficult to understand because in the end they will also lose.

That is my take also on this subject. For me, I treat gambling as entertainment only and use small amount of money. I had been in a situation before that I used large amount of money in a casino and lost. A wake up call as you call that situation. So I just play on these gambling websites to either pass my time or enjoy the moment using small bets.

This will be that fact that the more we put money in gambling, the more aggressive we have to win and it gets worse when we couldn't make it.
Aiming to bring back our losses, the nearer we fall into addiction. That is why we should have to think it wisely and consider this as entertainment only, nothing more. Cause if we lose, not a big deal for us and if we win, that would be luck...

Entertainment for people who have so much money because they don't care about money and still fine if he/she lose the money but nope for people who don't have much money. Usually people see gambling as an opportunity to get rich in instant but in reality, it's not that easy to do.

Even the people who are financially low too need to give importance to gambling as an entertainment. Everyone will allocate a small percentage for their entertainment purpose, and the same can be spend on gambling. This will not make any disturbance to the living. There are people who spend from their living budget. People see it as a opportunity to get rich based on the one in thousand who could've been lucky to get rich through gambling.

People with low budgets gambling should try to invest their money to raise their life conditions instead of wasting their money with gambling. There are very low chances someone get out of poverty through gambling.
It's most likely the gambler will stay poor forever if he chooses to bet instead of investing and saving money, as we can see many cases like that around. Gambling is entertainment for everyone, but poor people should be more responsible about betting, as they can't waste money, for their own good.

That should they have to do but their addiction pulling them to keep playing gambling even if they know it won't give them any in the long run. They should have save that money and invest but they have to deal with their addiction first that's why it is better to have some accompany while gambling to be able to tell you to stop because they know that you are already losing and the money that you are using is beyond on their limit.

It is very clear and it is usually an entertainment for the rich people. They show their entourage or their business partners to show how much money they got when they bet on a game like poker. But for poor people, gambling was never an entertainment because the rush to win is already right from the start because they hunger for a lot of money.

You are right. Wealthy people don't care about money too much thus they can focus on the entertaining part of game. Just as poor people can't be happy enough at any activity due to lacking enough money for life.

For poor people, actually play gambling to get instant money is something wrong to do. Because it is better for them to do more important thing else than do gambling because it's risk is high and can take all their money.

This is because they normally do not have access to funds and try to gamble with their limited money to make more money with it but end up loosing that as well because they do not have prior experience as either. This is the reason why gambling is banned in many states. The state does not want its people to loose miserably in gambling and hence suffer.

Maybe that is why people like to betting online, because in their country gambling is prohibited. Actually in my country we can't do gambling because can get arrested. Crypto world really help people to find how they still can do gambling and stay anonym.

I don't think that would be a good idea, gambling isn't our prioritize and causes some troubles in the future. I may suggest that only spend money for gambling if we have enough already, though we think that it is only for an entertainment but maybe there is something that we need to prioritize.

Most of the people states that gambling is form of entertainment but the reality is different gambling is like business where people look to make more money from investing little money but most of them will get failed.

So in your view gambling is business or entertainment,answer honestly. Cheesy

No you are wrong. People have gambled way before there were casinos and even before the invention of money. Taking risk is a human nature. Gambling is a way of taking risk without physically hurting yourself. I'd place gambling alongside bungee jumping rather than stock trading.

I don't know about the other but i will always consider gambling as an entertainment method which we shouldn't invest more into it because we already know how much risk we have to face by investing the higher amount into it. We should gamble when we are at stressful with our work and it will give some good relief if we consider it as entertainment.

If you take gambling for entertainment purpose only then for sure you will should be willing to spend a lot of money on it. You cannot play gambling for free and also wining in gambling is not easy. You need to have a lot of extra money if you want only entertainment from the gambling.

A lot of money? That means you are gambling not for fun only.
The rule I follow all the time is to gamble what I can afford to lose, and I will make sure it's not a lot of money.
If it will accumulate, I may lose a lot but I'm doing it for fun so I'm not counting it.

It is. Yes, its one of the entertaining activities which really requires money involving risks. Those who have enough money and wish to entertain themselves, can seriously get into it.We do have serious players risking to gain profits besides. Everyone is slowly drawn into it. Once adicted to it, it must be harder to get out.

If we think that this is just entertainment, no worries to feel of being caught into addiction. But those people who purely think this place as another source of income and even spending more time in gambling than of their family, it really not seems right. It won't be realized for greedy gamblers but for seasonal players, it will be.

I think people who have entered gambling have at least a sense of addiction even though you don't realize it and again for those who think gambling is entertainment, then it will be more addictive without you knowing the loss that has been experienced is very high. In contrast to those who are purely looking for other advantages in gambling, at least they will have a win and lose calculation which means more controlled if indeed he has good accounting.

Yes for so many people it is good way to earn money and only for few It is just a way to enjoy the life for me it gambling is best way to gain money using your mind and your skills about any game risk is part of our life and we will have to take this risk to make our life better as till now I have never seen anyone lose money but we mostly earn.

Skills is good, even me only know skills maybe can be used in poker and sportsbetting games. But if some people already have skills in gambling and it can be advantage and can give profit more than lose, i think you will really enjoy gambling for sure like what you said.

Haha.. that's it man!! As humans, we can't just take issues relating to money as entertainment with no hard feelings attached. It doesn't happen that way. If only it is about money then it is business.

As for me, I don't see gambling as an entertainment particularly if my real money is involved and whoever believe that maybe, must of them have other ways in which they makes there own money and just entertain themselves in gambling.
