Topic: Gambling is growing at nonstop rates in my country - page 6. (Read 1704 times)
Governments only looking for the revenue so they are going to accept in what way they are going to come so they have allowed more casinos in your country it has many disadvantages.Which is not like online gambling playing in real life casino will give more contact to peaople and we may get addicted to drugs or drinking and much more when we have with those kind of people.
Is this an isolated phenomenon or it's just where im from? I see more and more gambling commercials, tv ads, and I see more and more gambling spots all over the streets. There were casinos before but im talking about places where people take bets usually on soccer and other sports, not a classic casino with the usual casino stuff.
Probably that case is only isolated in your country because gambling stuffs here are not as lively as yours. Furthermore, I think it will not continue spreading anymore during the current administration because our president really hate and want to eradicate the oligarchy of online casinos here. Anyway, I think there's nothing wrong if the gambling community there is growing as long as your government strictly implement rules and regulations to be followed. Besides, they can get taxes from casinos and later be used to improved the infrastructures and public services in your country.
I see they are located near high schools too. This could cause a gambling addiction epidemic among the youth, which has a hard time making money these days and feel desperate and end up gambling whatever little they make.
Okay, this where the problem starts. This is a serious problem that need to be addressed. Imagine, if adults who are more intellectual still became addicts then what more for the curious teenagers? I guess the best solution to avoid this is to educate the youth about the bad effects of gambling and at the same time abolish the casinos near places where minors are utmost. I think it is not just in your country, because gambling could be everywhere if there is no one stepping to stop it then it will continue to grow. But on one point, these casinos are helping in the economy of their own country. And with the right rules and regulations, everything could be beneficial in the economy despite the bad habits that could bring to the youngster.
Well, there are groups that stopping it, the ones that don't agree really with the idea of gambling in the country but they can't stop it. There are a lot of gamblers out there and even if they ban Bitcoin in their country, they will always find a way to gamble all their money. Instead, the government just made a way that these gambling places make a profit and that is the same as the government, they added more tax to casinos, well that is as benefit to the country and the gamblingg places or casinos.

Yeah, even in my country the gambling is growing and you can see a lot of casinos everywhere you go. This is really good to boost our economy and it can increase the tourist level if the government is able to regulate well those casinos. We also have a lot of carnivals where you can also gamble, especially during holidays and you can see that a lot of people are playing, and hoping that they can win some money.Gambling cant boost the countries economic and tourist level because tourist arent arent attracted to it . what attracts them is the scenery or the landmarks . you did also mention carnivals, afaik carnivals are not casinos or gambling because they are purely consist of rides like feris wheel , merry go round , bump cars , etc .
On our country gambling isnt really growing because it is restricted but online gamblings are the ones that are indemand here because we are free to play it without getting jailed .
Gamblers is growing in my place where even teenagers are already gambling in any way. At a younger stage here in my place, many are already used to bet in some online sites against their friend especially the game “Dota”. It can consider gambling since you are playing to win the money. This is really alarming and the government should take responsibilities on this one and make a strong regulations, we should prevent those teenagers to become addict on that game and sacrifice their studies just to play with it.
Gamblers in my country used to come from the higher social classes, peopled who could afford to lose and had fun doing it, but that has changed in recent years. It is the lower classes that now represent the majority in betting shops all around town. There are regulations such as betting shops cant be located near Primary schools but they dont really pay that much attention to it in my area.
I have seen people spending their shopping money in gambling. After 8 hour shifts when they get the cash in hand they to go to the bookies and spend them all in roulette. After working the whole week they get £400 in hand and spend all in few hours max. Then they come back home and plan for the next week.These days gambling is much easier because of the online casinos. It's better with cryptocurrency. You do not even need to verify your identity.

I used to tell my friends everyday that gambling will be the next thing to implode lol. The rate at which it's growing is so bad and since gambling sites have been profiting from it, they won't rest. Not at all, they'll continue to lure people to throw their money away. They'll say play with caution but we all know you can't play with caution once you're there.
We cant deny the fact that gambling is part of our daily life. Ofcourse its all about the money. Gambling sites owner gave them a offer that they cant resist , Gamblers just choose them because of the offers because they want to play and to earn money. Its all about the money they seek and the owner wants to get some money from the players they been lured out. Money/Valuables is the main reason why gambling has been invented

I think that there are really some countries that gambling is getting out of hand, there are places as well that no matter what the status is, whether if it is a rich area or a poor area I think that gambling activities will still happen no matter what the status is, the main aspect here is what we call "influence", if the influencer shows this, the crowd will follow, same with BTC and how people promotes it, if gambling starts in this place, gambling will spread in other areas as well, though this is entirely a problem, its just that people may gamble in a wrong manner and will end up blasting their finances and blow their budget off, and if this happens its going to be a domino effect.
I am enjoying various gambling due to lenient prohibitions but I always worry about teenagers and addicted gamblers who are all always losing money in gambling but keep gambling without caring about the final consequences. I want my government to ban all types of gambling in near future but not finding any sign for that so far.
You are just reflecting the mindset of a common man of most of the countries against gambling. But, we could not do anything exactly for this unless otherwise government will be initiating more awareness for the sake of protecting their new generation from gambling problems. But, we cannot expect government will be taking care of each and every aspect of the common man, that is the reason it will be always good to have this kind of forum for enlightening ourselves.We may go for spreading awareness against gambling in our society are within a city. Other than that we cannot do anything about it when government is not up to our expectation for our welfare.

Imagine everyone is launching their own gambling business without having a valid background check. Frauds will take the chances and will walkaway with your money even without letting you playing with your money.

Isn't that what has been happening from the beginning of times? No government can regulate gambling to the extent of eliminating frauds entirely. I think there is no such country, even taking the North Korea into consideration, were gambling is properly regulated. The scam artists are plentiful even under dictatorship regimes. That's why we need provably fair system in the first place. You don't have to rely on anyone's honesty, you don't have to trust anybody, you should be able to check the fairness any time you want.
the growth of gambling are increasing everyday because gambling attracts all offers because of the value falling if gambling attract people to continue gamble because of the value will not grow up again they need to get more money in your shortcut that's why people choose gambling is the best way but my opinion is gambling is there entertainment one so we cannot think gambling is our life.

PS: Although gambling means losing your money. It's an industry where you are meant to lose the money and the house is going to take your money.
In many places including my place, Gambling is prohibited and there you will not find any gambling casino here. For those who want to gamble, can only do so online. Overall online gambling is increasing worldwide.
When gambling is legally prohibited in your country then online gambling also should not be allowed to your country people in direct accessing (government cannot do anything about accessing internet through bypassing methods) but internet censoring is not happening effectively in most gambling prohibited lands due to various reasons.This is the exact state of gambling in my country too. Government is not fully controlling gambling as sports betting and lotteries are taking place in my country along with online gambling are easily accessible without need of any proxies.

Your country is a lot different than mine but the same can be said that the gambling industry is still growing in my country, Philippines. Even though in my country where it is prohibited by law to advertise casinos they still manage to attract a lot of people not only the ones residing in the country but even foreigners who's only purpose in visiting the country is to gamble. From a wide variety of addicting games such as slot machines, baccarat, and poker tables as well as free drinks and food there is no wonder that it even attracts people in the middle class and below.
It may had flourish due to the help of the government as well, what I have seen lately is a lot of foreign companies are trying to build up their own casino/hotel in the country which are located not only near in our airports but also in our tourist spots. They have actually encouraged this in order to attract foreign investment in the country where the ownership is always split 60/40 where 60% is the stake of their local partner.
Right.Casinos will only flourish if it have given importance by the government.In my country,there are also growing casinos but it is mostly found only in big hotels and not near in schools or any big establishments.Gambling has become legal like lottery which is very rampant today and cannot be denied that almost all people are into it.It may had flourish due to the help of the government as well, what I have seen lately is a lot of foreign companies are trying to build up their own casino/hotel in the country which are located not only near in our airports but also in our tourist spots.

I think there is a difference between lottery and other types of gambling. Normally people buy one lottery ticket worth of $1-$2 in hopes of winning big in case of big luck, but they rarely spend more than they afford to lose on the lottery tickets. Yes, there are such people, but those cases are rare, and imo such people need professional help because it is really insane to spend all you have on lottery tickets while your win chance is still much less than 1%. I think that lottery is the least addictive form of gambling and that's why it is allowed almost everywhere, but I would like to see some other opinions, because what I say is not a proven fact.
You have not seen a common man who is buying 10 or even 25 lottery tickets at a time ? For an addicted gambler there is no limit for spending in gambling. They always spend beyond their affordable level. If you check in freebitco.in, you can find most of the people are buying lottery tickets in 100s. We can see only the winners, there could be thousands of others who tried in 1000s too.I'm not seeing lottery as a different gambling type. It is one of the typical gambling type and it is more addictive as it will be giving you the hope of winning at the every attempt.
tickets in freebitco.in are only cost o.0000000x satoshi per piece and that was cheap compared to real life lottery tickets . thats why it is not really shocking to see a lot of users who actually bought hundreds and thousands of tickets per week .
actually a gamblers view and a normal person's view who bets in lottery are the same because they both want to maximize thier chances of winning and as a result , they will buy more tickets but they dont know that the odds of winning a lottery is verry slim than chances of getting struck by a lightning outside of your house
That's right, chances of winning a really good prize, like a million dollar Jackpot, are extremely slim in the lottery, and actually I think everybody is aware of that fact, people are not so stupid in general. But there are many of the smaller prizes, from $2 to $20, which have been won by thousands of people each time the lottery takes place. I think that people who buy tickets by thousands presume on winning as much of those as possible, and on getting even, at least, in case of not winning the highest prize. But that's a stupid idea anyway, and in most cases such people lose their money.
I think the very idea of "increasing your chances" is a dangerous one, and is something which should be avoided because that particular state of mind makes one an addicted gambler eventually.
