Topic: Is gambling a threat or fun? - page 4. (Read 2943 times)
Gambling is really not a threat it is for fun and at the same time we can earn on it depending on how we handle it. Gambling cannot harm us if we can control our emotion while doing so. I believe that the only threat on gambling is when we become addicted on it and we cannot control our emotions.
A player who are emotional and no budgeting their money gambling will be threat for them.I was being emotional too in the gambling before and I was lose a lot of money that is a threat.
It was fun if the gambler winning money and also using a small money but if the money they bet is very high like hundred dollars or thousands dollars they have pressure for sure.

Gambling can be threat or fun that it depends to a person if they will take gambling as a leisure time whenever they are just bored or they will take gambling to earn easy money by just playing. But mostly gambling is a threat because there are people who takes gambling seriously as a profit, not for entertainment that they always lead to greed and aggression in betting.
First, it was entertainment but after a few plays things will be changed unnoticed and in every game, there will become thrilled and excited, the fun will likely become a habit and that habit will be pushed to become an addiction. This is the time you need to stop because it will lead to your own destruction when you lose everything and keep coming back. You will encourage yourself to get back what you've lost which rarely happens to some gamblers. when they already lost big and manage to get it back somehow that's very rare.
At this time many people are at home of course they will often play and therefore must maintain a balance in their financial self so as not to burden your needs.
People aren't being greedy when they won, for some it's just a matter of satisfaction and that's it. You'll just get greedy if you're having an expectation to win again in gambling game due to high profit. Similar with playing online games, my truly purpose is just to have fun with friends and to relieve stress from school, getting addicted to online games is not an issue for me.
I agree with that. Sometimes there are individuals that will just go to casino during their holiday vacation. Just to have some fun during their leisure time. So for those people that will gamble occasionally, gambling is only for fun, not a threat by any means. It will only be a threat if you will be addicted to it to the point that your savings is being depleted as well as your assets.

That's great! You sound like a person with a lot of self-control. Not all gamblers are like that and that's when gambling addiction starts. I agree that gambling should be fun. It's not always about the winning. Sometimes it's in the thrill of expectation will my team win.
No, not really. I still feel that I need more practice to control myself because I sometimes lose my control, especially if I meet my friends in one game, and we play many rounds together. Yes, I agree that it's not always about the winning, but it's something how you can enjoy the games. If I meet my friends, sometimes, we talk to each other while we played, and no matter if he wins or I win, that don't make us want to try to get the loose money.
Perhaps, you need to reduce the tension in the gambling and try to get out for a while and take a deep breath. With that, I think you will have the power to control yourself, and if you come back to that game, hopefully, you can take care of your mind.
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.
Definitely agreed. On the other hand, it's still depening on the gamblers though most of them have been already eaten of the system since they are missing something which is the discipline. Gambling isn't really made nor intended to be like that but rather it's made to give hope for people that with small money they are willing to risk, their lives can change for good. Some people doesn't see that perspective perhaps they are blinded of their greediness.

In my opinion while playing gambling at a reasonable limit I don't think it is a significant threat. Playing gambling with a maximum level of awareness, when you lose quickly leave and come back another time. Likewise, when you win some money, don't be greedy, maybe you need to stop for a moment or go to do other activities, if you still want to play gambling again next time. That way you can minimize the threat.
That's right, and it's better if you gamble only with money that can be spent because then you will also avoid threats in gambling, threats in gambling will actually be easy to avoid as long as we are aware of any factors so as to keep us safe and keep gambling fun, because as long as we have control and remain disciplined it might be an effort that can be applied every time we gamble even though sometimes we have to make more risky decisions and I think it's only natural that we can manage it.

Gambling is supposed to be just for fun, but since being greedy and being out of control is already in the nature of a person, gambling turns out to be a threat. People often play to satisfy their gambling activity that becomes addiction later on. Addiction becomes the root of why it is considered a threat due to the different outcomes they produce like burning all their money in the gambling house, etc.
It's a threat if you cannot handle your own. Gambling is fairly being thought of as a threat because people don't know how to handle themselves. Yes that would be for fun but when it's being misunderstood by the gambler and starts to act crazy and let his emotion control his decision, that's how it becomes a threat and results can be dangerous of damaging himself financially and emotionally. In the other hand sometimes we need the adrenaline in our bloods and for me gambling is my adrenaline resource.
Very true. If you want more thrill from watching sports or any other matches, then just make a bet on the match that you watch.But of course, you will also become more upset when you lose
.Overall it is more fun for me if I bet some money that doesn't really matter to me. And if I bet with the intention of making a profit, it will be a different kind of pleasure.
It will become a threat if you are having to much fun, just be sure to only spend what you can afford to lose and do not spend to much time on it, and always watch out your motivation, don't ever think of thinking that you can make money out of it, nobody can and nobody will make money out of it.
Anything that is too much is very dangerous, you can't make gambling as your hobby where you want to have fun all the time as it's a very expensive hobby and risky as well. No one has infinite money so in the end we might still lose even if we are very reach, so let's be careful and if possible let's not put too much time in gambling, focus on other productive activities in life. Depending on how much yourself and the money you play with this can be dangerous or real fun.
It's almost my rank1 hobby right now and I won't lost that much. Because I won't play with a huge amount of money. For example, if I earn 5K per week and play with 50 usd or less. Even if I lost all the money I didn't lost too much.
In the other hand sometimes we need the adrenaline in our bloods and for me gambling is my adrenaline resource. But the think is first before everything you will need to make sure to play on a safe platform and make sure they won't scam you and your money.

The entertaining factors are there but if you exceed from your limitations then yes it's really dangerous to you and it's going to become
a threat since addictions will be the outcome results of your too much engagement with this activities.
Definitely, and no gambler would want to be addicted, they just want to have fun and fee the thrill, that is why it's necessary to be discipline all the time. a threat since addictions will be the outcome results of your too much engagement with this activities.
Enjoy but not to play that much in order to limit your stay and the money that you'll be spending.
Discipline means you'll have to always gamble based on your limit, and at the same time you also limit your time spent in gambling as the more you gamble, the more you are being expose and eventually it will become part of your life, which is very risky. 
I am among those who think gambling is fun, because in my opinion gambling should be fun and not a threat. In my opinion gambling
is a threat because it is addictive, so it can have many negative effects. Therefore we must be able to limit in playing gambling, don't
overdo it. If you can limit yourself to playing gambling, I'm sure gambling will become a lot of fun.

This is an example how to have fun gambling. Until you are doing it for fun, you will be OK. But it depends on person's self-control. When you get a big win, you could think "hey, I could make money with this". And when you start thinking like that, it's game over for fun.
For this word, "hey, I could make money with this", I've done that in a few years ago but that doesn't make me win more money, but coincidentally, I have to get lost the money. After thinking for a while, I realize that word can be a trigger for a gambler to feel that he is superior and unbeaten in the gambling, so that can attract him to play longer with more money.
Thus, after that experience, I never tried to follow that word again because that could I makes me lose the money, and I cannot enjoy my winning money. From that moment, if I win or lose, and the time is enough for me to playing gambling, I always stop gamble and leave the sites because I don't want to get more losses.
That's great! You sound like a person with a lot of self-control. Not all gamblers are like that and that's when gambling addiction starts. I agree that gambling should be fun. It's not always about the winning. Sometimes it's in the thrill of expectation will my team win.
