This question is always on my mind since then until now. I want to know the opinion of everyone here on this platform. I know that we have all different perception about gambling, so I respect what will be your point of view about that.

But to share my opinion, I consider gambling as a threat to gamblers. Yes, there are a lot of people who find happiness in gambling if and only if they can control their selves from this, but no matter how fun can gambling gives to you, the problem is still there, the addiction on it is always there, it grows day by day. There are so many disadvantages of being so addicted in gambling, one of which is forgetting your priority, spending your time to your family and your friend, you won't be able to more productive things than losing money, to the point that even you already lose and don't have enough money to play, you will make ways, there are times that you will ask a request to your friend to give you money as debt. You should be the one who controls the gamble and don't let the gamble control you.

Gambling can be a threat and also a set of fun but it depends on how you will be able to control it. There are a lot of people who are playing or gambling is just because they are making friends or they are getting more friends and connections on different terms and also there are people who are intent to be it as a threat because they are being addicted on it and that's the bad part of it because if you have been addicted on it that would be the start that it will became threat for you and for your family as well.

It ofcourse depends in how you take it. Not everyone views gambling the same way, for some, it's a hope of earning some money or doubling their holdings. For some, it's a fun way to utilize their money. Whatever people may say, profit are always the center of attraction for gamblers. The difference is some are going for a number or nothing while some stay on their course even if they win a bit or lose.

For me it's both, only two things will happen to you, you either will lose a lot of money and lose yourself or you will have some fun playing games and refresh your mind from all the tiring works, you just have to choose between the two if you cannot control it you will fall into the first one where you are going to lose a lot and end up in misery, but if you can control it enjoy playing the game and continue to do so.

Yeah both of that can happen but the most likely to happen for some gamblers is the first one because of their greediness. Although there are some gamblers who are enjoying also even though they lost a lot of money, most of them feel the opposite.

Controlling yourself is the first thing that a gambler must have if they really want to gamble and spend more time on it. One thing more is that, if you see gambling as a way to have some fun and a stress reliever then it is ok if you lost your money. What is important is you enjoyed.

It is actually both. The moment you started playing gambling, you are already threatening yourself while having fun, the threat is losing, and of course the fun part is when you are winning, you are also enjoying. But, the thing is that sometimes, we are missing the threatening part of it, since it is getting block up by the joy we are experiencing whenever we play gambling.

gbling is usually harmless and brings a lot of fun and brings a lot of money to the table and jobs for people

I am not sure about that, because even if you have some control, you can't control the gambling site itself for you to avoid losing your money, there is no fun in that, that being said, it is already a threat to us since money is important and our goal is to double it up by playing in gambling, not losing it.

Playing a gambling can both cause of threat and having fum

For the threat because you can lose your money because gambling is one of the dangerous ways so it will be easy for your money to gone if you are very careless using it while playing.

While having fun is happiness we know if we are stress or any bad day that we had once we play we enjoy it and and make double happiness if that day you gonna win more money in gambling.

The two choice is depends to you on how you handle and control yoursels if you not want a bad outcome don't play if you are not risk taker but if you are ready to lose and to win money gambling is for you .

It does depend on the gambler. Self-control is a must. If you would let greed consume you, you will surely get addicted into it. Gambling is like a gun. If you won't make use of it with responsibility, it will be a threat to other people and as well to yourself but if you would have full control of it, things would be fine, which is the same with gambling that could be profitable, source of enjoyment and such with proper usage.

Quote from: cabalism13 on February 21, 2020, 12:38:56 PM

I simply cannot see the point of Gambling being a threat to anyone. Its just a platform its just a place where someone could bet, unless there are some scumbags out there that doesn't want you to win.
Gambling might be a tool or a Cause but it is not really a threat, IMO.

It can be a platform in a way that gambling is addictive to some people who are frustrated to be rich in an instant. Actually it is an addictive activity in the first place. The brain would want the gambler to play more and more as they are experiencing a win, due to the rewarding system which is a bit of a conditioning to an individual.

Quote from: Wintersoldier on February 21, 2020, 11:12:47 AM

At first, you will realize gambling is for fun, but once you experienced winning a lot of money in gambling that will be the time you will realize if gambling is really a threat or fun for you because you might have changes in your attitude while playing in gambling that you always seek just to play gambling whether it is for entertainment or to earn money.

That is why proper self regulation should be prioritized by the gamblers more than earning profit. I do tend to set limit of amount I can afford losing on that day that I would gamble to not be consumed of such activity.

For me, i believe gambling should be fun for every gamblers out there. You re expected to enjoy your gambles, either its a win or a loss.

Never get emotionally engaged with your bets, that you feel angry when a game losses.

Whenever you realize that gambling is a threat to your peace ? happiness ? and general livelihood. Its time to take a break away from gambling.

If we want to get a lot of money, then it is probably better to work hard or do business. Gambling is not a place where they can be earned (by playing).
Although there is always a chance Roll Eyes

It should, most people think about it.

How many dollars he spends in gambling every month, for example $ 1000, if he starts a business / business with that much capital, maybe it can increase by half of it or maybe more if the business is advanced.

That's what human names are always there are other parties who incite to plunge into gambling.
The worst part is that most people bet, when they lose a bet, they run out of $ 1000, and tomorrow they play again, winning $ 100 is fun enough for an addict, even though he has lost $ 1000, he doesn't realize it.

"Human nature can not be changed by others, if he himself does not want to change it".

100% true!
Even if you do not do business and save money in a bank (or invest in cryptocurrency), then the accumulated amount will become huge over time. While the money spent on gambling will not give anything but a one-time adrenaline rush.

it is both of them to be exact,
Gambling is fun when you are winning but it could be threat when we couldn't control it.
There are people who got addicted to it when they taste the great pleasure of winning on gambling,
Specially when they won a big money from it,
Once they started gambling and have a taste of it they would always think that they could do it again so even when they are losing a lot they wouldn't care because in their mind they could just easily gain it back.

That's right you have to choose wisely between the two, if you can control yourself then good thing will reflect to your activities while if you will engaged that much surely it will ruined your life as the balanced will be failing since many addicted gamblers become broke after dealing with this habit. Assess yourself and make sure that you are still good in taking your side.

Some gamblers cannot accept when they lose in the gambling games, and they will continue to playing gambling to recover their losses. But if they win the games, they will feel that playing gambling is one activity that has an exciting moment and of course, they can have fun inside the games.

We know that gambling will have to lose and win, and we need to understand that we need to accept the risk of gambling. So if you feel that gambling is a threat, you don't have to play gambling, and you should stay away from gambling. But if you think that playing gambling is one of the fun things, you can play gambling anytime without thinking that gambling is a threat.

Gabling starts when you think that it is a fun activity.
That's how all people see it in the beginning but as you gamble and gamble more and you start losing money then this activity becomes a thread due to the factor that might make you lose a lot of money in the end which is not actually fun.

I don't think so.

All of the people already know what gambling is and we all know that it is not a fun activity but a way to earn some money. You would always hear people saying they could try their luck in gambling to earn some money. You could read some of these articles I read in the past talking about what gambling is and how people are getting addicted or hooked with it.

It only becomes a threat if you treat it as a daily routine in your life. If you gamble everyday and prioritize it over your responsibilities then, in the long run, it will cause you something bad on yourself or your family.
Gambling is not just all about addiction and wasting lots of money on it. Some people relieve their stress by gambling, some even choose gambling as their career.
In the end, you always have control if you will get addicted or not.

You should be the one who controls the gamble and don't let the gamble control you.

I was very lucky to be able to get out of gambling addiction 5 years ago (at that time I rarely went home and even always spent my money at the gambling table)), after experiencing a lot of loss in gambling I realized that I was married and was just starting to become a husband. I thought I was very lucky to have a wife who was understanding of me (not angry to me even though I was a gambler).. learn to control yourself in playing gambling, manage your time and your money because after all the family at home is very important compared to gambling.

I believe that gambling is a thing that should be banned everywhere.

Gambling adversely affects people.
Of course, not at all, someone can enjoy it without falling into dependence, but most people who are addicted to gambling are sick to one degree or another.

This is used by casinos and platforms with gambling, as well as with bets and so on.
Their main customers are people who have a gambling addiction, so gambling should be prohibited.

You aren't so open about of opportunity and businesses, gambling is part of the business where it involves money just like how we do the trading. Both are almost the same in theory when handling money because it is a game for people who do know how to play. You are just so narrow minded about of the gambling industry, just look on the other side, gambling is being taxed by the government too. It is crucial to the economy of the country.

Any kind of addiction is harmful for you. Its like you can enjoy drinking and have fun but when you start alcohol abusing, it becomes a "threat". It starts to interfere with your life and you will usually start to suffer. The same thing goes for gambling, as long as you are in control and do not become addicted to it, its just all fun. But when gambling addiction hits in, it becomes a threat to your life since you will start suffering badly in the long run.
