I once introduced online casinos to an elderly person, but he was confused by the display on the device I showed him, generally elderly people are blind to the technology currently available, I asked him whether you like gambling in online casinos, he answered I don't understand what what had to be done there, I explained briefly but he was still reluctant, he preferred physical gambling

It's difficult to introduce elderly people to online gambling because they are not used to the game, but if they learn slowly they will definitely be able to do it themselves because in my opinion it depends on the person's will, if they don't want to, it means they don't like it, usually that also depends. From the person who teaches and the way it is delivered, I can teach elderly people because to convey to them you have to be calm and patient, there is no need to rush because of course their memory is not like those of us who are young, so when teaching them you have to repeat it so they remember.

I think that elderly people should not be introduced to online gambling because they have less good memory problems than young people, so on average it is difficult for elderly people to play online gambling even though there are some who have switched but in fact they are more happy with physical and offline gambling only because they enjoy the interaction of people around them compared to playing gambling which leads to privacy and being alone, it is different when young people gamble which requires privacy and is closed while elderly people are happier with gambling which interacts with people in offline gambling . so don't be surprised about that.

Yes I have introduced my father to an online gambling site. My father loves to gamble especially on football games. He is an addicted Manchester United supporter and every weekend he will always play bet. I introduced him to an online site where he can be placing his bet instead of always going out. I created an account for for him and showed him how to fund it. Since then he has been playing his bet at his convince at home.

And you, have you ever successfully introduced an elder person to virtual gambling?

Thanks for the interesting topic. Grandma is just used to the smells of the casino, its atmosphere and the faces of the people who work there. And you will agree that it is much more fun to throw coins into the slot machine and pull the handle than just pressing the Spin button on the computer screen. Therefore, the older generation can be understood in their desire to go to a real casino. The main thing is that the game should be just a fun hobby and nothing more.

Gaming yes but gambling for cash no as you say people are traditional but also superstitious when it comes to gambling especially where as a normal game has no real downside to trying it besides the normal effort to learn the rules and usage of the interface which is enough discouragement to put off many. The one way to really appeal to someone would be via the value route perhaps if it were a better return to bet online then maybe that would then appeal but most of the time its the same company on and off line in most cases. Crypto would be an added layer and thats unfortunately alot of effort old people arent bothering with at present, there will be some but in the majority I think BTC and other crypto has alot of potential to grow still depending on becoming increasingly easy to use.

This is one of the main reason on why i dont really like o suggesting something on someone which it isnt really just that limited on gambling but also in investments as well on which we could
potentially be having those kinds introductions but im not really that a fan on sharing up something that im dealing with and just been said that i dont like on getting blamed.

It does feel suck when you get blamed for something you didn't do or intended to do. I do see some people getting blamed for introducing Bitcoin even though they clearly said buying it is risky and everyone should take proper measures before trading, yet nobody seems to care. I think this is just human nature where they tend to blame others instead of themselves first. That being said, some people who aggressively encourage people to participate without any risk-reward research do exist, and I believe people like this share the blame if somebody becomes a problem gambler or gets into financial trouble due to terrible investment, etc. The key difference lies in whether they tell you the risk and how often they tell the success story of the activity they're promoting imo.

I have never done this, because in my opinion gambling should not be introduced, in fact I do online gambling secretly, like doing it in my own room. because I think introducing elderly people to gambling is not a good thing, indeed in my environment sometimes there are elderly parents asking me about online gambling and they really like doing it, but I myself admit defeat, I don't I don't know about that, because I don't like to show off the gambling that I do.

Even though there are some people who like to brag about their gambling, that's their own right, but in my opinion, it's better not to brag about the winnings you get from gambling.
and% if I introduce online gambling to elderly parents, I'm afraid that person will experience a lot of losses that could destroy his life and his family, because I think it's time for elderly people to enjoy life in a relaxed manner, like chatting a lot with friends. his friends, or doing something useful like gardening or anything that doesn't lead to big risks.

The gambler mostly not introduced to the gamblers at the old age,because they can’t understand game at the old age.If the old age gambler play the gambling the game most in the random betting.The analytical skill was very low among the old age gamblers,So I don’t do the share about the gambling to the old age people.The old people who asked themselves about the gambling games to me,I will share their some of the gambling site which personally using for the gamblers.Many old people like to entertain themselves by spend the time with their grandchildren instead of playing the gambling game at the old age.

but even so, I think there are also many people who gamble even though they are old, maybe in physical casinos there are, because in my own environment there are also old people who have families too but they still gamble, and in physical casinos there may also be people who are old but they still like to gamble, because maybe their enjoyment is in gambling so they spend their old age gambling but what is clear is that parents who still like to gamble, in my opinion, have enough money and a stable income too, so they spend their old age in gambling, but even so I think this is still somewhat contrary to health.

Yes, I also don't introduce gambling to older people because I don't think it should be introduced to other people. because in old age they should do things that are useful, as you said, spending a lot of time with their grandchildren or their family, that is one of the things that is positive for old people.

For sure there are those old people who do get engaged on gambling on which this one would be neither online or offline but i do believe that in offline on which the higher the number.

We do know that when it comes to gambling interest then it would really be that definitely be that basing up into someones preference which this one wont really be that basing up on the age
on which there are ones who would really be giving out importance into the leisure seeking that they do have rather than on trying out to have some entertainment
despite of the age. Actually its not really that bad on engaging into gambling no matter what the age. The only concern on here is on how you would really be making out
such control on the time that you do gamble.

If you compare the number of parents who gamble offline or online, perhaps you can be sure of offline gambling, because I think that if they gamble offline, they can not only gamble, they can probably meet their friends there and chat about things they like. including gambling. but even so, no one can be sure with accuracy, but what is clear is that in my opinion there are some parents who still gamble offline or online, one or two, or even more, there definitely are.

that's right, it doesn't matter about age and gambling, but the problem is how close the person is to gambling, because these two things can be reversed, maybe there are young people who gamble crazy or are addicted, and there are also young people who gamble responsibly On the other hand there are parents who are crazy about gambling or are addicted, and there are also parents who gamble responsibly, but what is clear is that I don't introduce gambling to parents, even if they have a lot of money.

And you, have you ever successfully introduced an elder person to virtual gambling?

I don't introduce gambling to anyone unless they ask me to share general knowledge for beginner gamblers, I don't want to be involved in the losses they experience on each bet and gamblers usually blame their teachers after they ask about several opportunities to win bets but they ignore the influential aspect of luck on every win from gambling. I only share basic knowledge about gambling features and then I leave all the decisions to the gambler to determine the betting amount according to the budget's capabilities.

But I applaud you for introducing gambling for fun to your grandmother, because they already have experience in gambling and they only enjoy gambling slots to fill their free time, but make sure you also control the gambling so that they don't get addicted to gambling again because they will always ask for funds to play slot gambling every day.

And i dont like on getting blamed on which on the time that you would really be telling or convincing someone to play or even just introducing it to them, then you cant be known on how they would really be ending up?
Whether they would really be that become impulsive into it or would really be that having the moderation on which it will really be that totally depending on what you are dealing with. We do know that this isnt something that gives out that kind of good feeling into someone on the time that you do see that you are the ones who do contribute into that kind of failure towards their finances just because you have introduced gambling into them.
This is one of the main reason on why i dont really like o suggesting something on someone which it isnt really just that limited on gambling but also in investments as well on which we could

I have not done this before but I have be sincere to you doing this makes me feel as if am introducing someone to something that might ruine him or her, another point we need to consider before introducing someone to something is that in what way will such benefit the person or will it increase the person level of gambling since no one will monitor him or here again, is gambling a career, to me I don't think so, lets think before doing things, let's not make it look like gambling is a lucrative business or career that people should build in it.

I've been saying that, since my first days in this cryptocurrency market, I always have it in my head that at no point should I talk about gambling or investments in cryptocurrencies with elderly people who depend on pensions to live, but when I see that there is a person who is talking about gambling and this person confesses that he plays and I see that it is a person who appears to be young and who has the financial means to keep playing, so at this time I can spend a few minutes talking about games of chance, but I just talk about how I play and my opinion about games, I don't talk about things like making money with gambling

I always talk about playing for fun, looking at gambling as a means of fun like going to the beach, traveling, watching football, these are things we spend money on to have fun, and it's money that doesn't come back, so that's exactly how people They should look at gambling so that they do not destroy their lives by playing. elderly people should avoid things like alcohol, they should avoid sleeping with a lot of women and they should avoid gambling a lot, because their health is very fragile and most of the time old people are not rich, they are people who live on a pension that is a small amount of money, so not money to use in games

I was thinking about my past experience with my grandmother when I was still starting in crypto industry and was getting familiar with gambling yet. Since I knew she was a gambling enthusiast (loved slot machines), I tried introducing her to virtual betting, telling it was an accessible and easy method to gamble from home with comfort and easiness.

So I opened a slots website on the laptop and told her to click the touchpad over the roll button, indicated by the arrow on the screen, to start betting. She did it for a while and had some fun when winnings were hit. In the end, I asked her what she thought about the experience and if she would replace the habit of going to physical casino by the virtual one, but she replied that it was too complicated for her to play online, and that she likes the contact with a physical environment where there are physical machines and other people to talk, so she could leave the boredom of staying alone at home to see traffic and flux of people outside the doors.

As you can see, it wasn't only about gambling, but also about interacting with other people inside a real gambling environment, besides the technological experience not being so rewardable when compared to playing at solid, palpable physical machines.

And you, have you ever successfully introduced an elder person to virtual gambling?

I have never introduced an elder person to online gambling. First, even though for a young person it looks like the easiest thing in the world, it can be really challenging for someone after a certain age. If you have questions in real-life casino about anything, you'll be helped by the stuff immediately. But online it can hard for an elder person just finding the Support button. And while all of that can be finally explained, nothing can replace socializing with people around for people who fancy it.

Theologically speaking, elderly people generally don't like online gambling, because their habit of physical gambling was inherent when they were young and they weren't very good at using gadgets like they are now, in contrast to people today where almost everyone already has gadgets and is free to use them. access whatever we want, I have never offered online sites to the elderly but I already know the answer from them

Yeah, I introduced an uncle who loves to gamble but his wife and children wasn`t happy with the habit. However, he wasn`t reckless because I never heard of any act of irresponsibility from him. His family was only angry that his ego and the way people see him might be affected and so they pleaded he stop gambling. When I heard of this, I advised him to gamble online and that his gambling activities would not be open to anyone. I helped him set up the account, funded it and showed him how to navigate the website. Well, I can`t tell if he still gambles offline but he was happy learning how to gamble online.

Introducing gambling to anyone is bad, young or old, man or woman. Let anyone who wants to gamble learn it themselves so they can have themselves to blame, or let another person introduce it to them, so they blame another person not me tomorrow if gambling makes life harder for them. There are much better things that I can introduce someone to like crypto and trading, I am not a regular gambler, and have the ability to control my urge to gamble, instead of teaching people about gambling, I will teach other things and advice elders and the young ones to be careful with gambling because of what it can do.

Elder gambler as in senior citizen because it’s very hard to that because they always preferred what they use to play and changing that involves new technology will always make them back off. Old people usually don’t want to embrace new technology especially if their current gambling method is working for them perfectly.

I think the only time I saw an elder gambler that embraced online betting is during pandemic when casino is not available to play while online is the only choice for them to gamble.

Unfortunately all my gambler friends who are older than me are not into online, they want a face to face gambling, and majority of them are into cock fighting which is very popular in the Philippines. I also bet like them but I'm more focus on sports betting, particularly on NBA games and PBA (local league), so I could not force them to like what I love to bet because they are not well verse when it comes to online gambling, and even if I will teach them, it still won't work as they are not even good on basic computer, or anything online, it's just almost impossible to teach people who have no interest.

A person who has been going to physical casinos will never like online casinos. They go there for entertainment and not for only gambling. I understand why your grandmother did not like online slots as it doesn't give her the satisfaction. At that age, it is not that easy to understand how to access an online casino. If you do try to explain to her she would get confused that is why let her do what she wants to. By the way, I have never introduced any senior or elder to online gambling

Will never like? Hhmm... I don't really think so. I am sure a lot of us here do also started in offline casinos. In fact, we then stick to it because online casinos gives so much comfortability and there other perks too which can't be found in their offline counterparts. Not all offline gamblers are the same but I still believe that majority of them plays for profit.

I even know a couple of people who has this type of playstyle and their age groups are different. No matter what side you choose, what you are doing or playing is still gambling. We can't please everybody, so yeah, we can just let them whatever they like. What important is they are happy there.
