Definitely not wrong in my opinion!
Everyone is allowed to do whatever they want with their money, including gamble.
The problem arises when people can't control their gambling and start gambling away their family's future.

It's exactly like alcohol. Nothing wrong with it as long as it's done in moderation and good fun!
Always play responsibly folks!

Gambling is cool from my point of view only if you do it just for fun and with money you can afford to lose. Otherwise it can become very big problem.

Quoted.
I agree with your post. Gambling is just for entertainment. Did you ever guess who will be your life partner? And lose so much money by false betting on them?

Gambling is not for that. And it is not good again when gambling make you forget about your own happiness. So just play gambling for fun, and if it's not make you have fun, then leave it.

It's perfectly fine if you can afford to lose.
That means that you still can control yourself.

That is right. Gambling is just a way to pass time, by using money. That is no different from other activities such as cycling, climbing and travelling. All those activities cost money and time.
but with gambling, you just tend to "spend" your money a lot faster when things go wrong Grin
You can get addicted to anything, not just gambling, alcohol, or cigarettes. Gambling in itself is not wrong, However, getting addicted to it so badly that it destroys your life is wrong. I have friends who gamble for fun each weekend, and it does them no harm, but they tell me stories of a few gamblers who lost money to pay for electricity bills by gambling it, leaving their entire families without electric.

There is no problem gambling for fun every weekend. As long as family life is not affected, gambling is a good entertainment.
only if you can afford to lose that money. if you have debts or bills to pay, you should never be gambling with that money.

Gambling can become addicted more easily than from traveling. When you don't have money you just don't travel, but often people addicted from gambling are lend money in the hope of winning. That is sad.
lending money has no relation to gambling ,scammers also lend money and most of them dont gamble .
it's just the cherry on the cake ,taking it that serious is the problem.

Some people whom addicted in gambling is they dont accept it they always saying "just for fun"  until they lost everything  that time will realize it.  gambling is not wrong,the is wrong when addicted and lost everything.

Agreed with you, gambling can not be consider wrong if you are just playing for fun and you are not addicted towards the gambling. On other hand if you are loosing your hard earned money because of gambling addiction and you can not afford to loose this money then we can say that its wrong for you.

I still wouldn't say Gambling is wrong even if someone has a problem with it.  That person needs to take responsibility for their own actions and stop blaming other sources.

Getting addicted to gambling must be a wrong effect of gambling. Every individual man is not alone in society. He must have either parents or spouse to be living with him or depending on him. So, getting addiction on gambling must be wrong and must avoid such a situation.

Addiction to gambling is not right. If we treat gambling as a way to pass time and enjoy the process, then it is fine.
Who would want to lose their hard earned money to pass time and enjoy the process ? lol We may give different excuses as to why gambling is legit and we're not addicted to it but at the end of the day the truth is we all want to earn some more by our luck and slowly that becomes a addiction.

Mostly that's right, in this case he/she need a rehabilitation.

Well i see there are 2 type of gambler, who can earn profit from it, people like this can control their emotion while do a gamble(mostly i ever see poker gambler) and while got lose. And who can't control their emotion until they lose everything.

Unfortunately, there are too few people of the first kind. Most of us cannot control our emotions.

In fact, nobody controls their emotions, ones control more than others, that is it.

And gambling destroys lifes. Grin

I agree, we may think that we can controll our emotions, but we can't sometimes and we can't do a thing about it.

As for "gambling destroys lifes", yes it does, but on the other hand, everything destroys life, even life itself destroys life in the long run. )

Yes it is true that is why more people are suffering on loss rather than winning and there are open more casino to let this people play in there to loss more again. If all people are always winning casino will not open anymore

Casinos are still every and make good profit. That means most of us gamblers are giving money to the casinos.
