Well, the correct answer for your question is both. Gambling can be fun or threat to yourself or to others and also fun for yourself and the others. Gambling can result in theif and also selling personal stuff just to have money for gambling. I'm sure you know what I mean. My answer is either a threat or fun that really depends on the person being a gambler.
It depends on the gamblers themselves.
It can be a fun for them if they know how to control themselves, have discipline and know how to stop if you need too. On the other hand, it can be a threat for the gambler if they don't know how and when to stop especially if they are losing too much money.
For me, instead of deciding if gambling is a threat or fun it would be better to just stop gambling at all Cheesy.

Being a person we all have different perspective in life. Yes agree it depends upon the person if it will be threat or fun for him / her . Why stick to gambling when it is not beneficial at all ? Gambling does not require us to put all of what we have. Instead,put all what we can afford to lose and do not be so greedy. It is not bad to play. The thing is, do not be so greedy.

That's human nature, being greedy when opportunity knocks in. It is easy to say but once you are eaten by the system, it is hard to get out. So before things get nasty, you need to decide for yourself which path will you take. The fun or the threat? It all depends on you because no one else will help you but yourself.

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.
I think that the border between threat and fun is hairs breadth, one day you are having fun then the next day you are addicted. I consider gambling as a threat because this is is just an elaborate ruse for the businessmans to get the consumers money. You might be having fun, but that is because you are playing with your friends but when you are not playing with friends then you will lose track of how long you have been playing so I consider it a threat.

Playing together with friends doesn't guarantee your safety. It's not unheard of that friends are encouraging each other to gamble more, or to make higher stakes.

I suggest to count on yourself only, when dealing with this sensitive matter. You yourself can be that friend, in the best sense of the word, who helps others to not turn their gambling into disaster, but you can't count on others to do the same.

That will be either of the 2 depend on how you treat this habit.

If you gamble to have fun  then there will no threat at all but if you play to make a living then that is a threat automatically because you are risking your life and you family in games that has no assurance of winning instead this is mostly for losing.

So think what you want in gambling and push your life to betterment and enjoy gambling for fun not for desperation.

It depends on your level if you play within your means and with the time that you allocated then it's just for fun, but if you play all day or all night and you have to spend a lot of money to the point that you loan money to loan sharks and your friends then this it's beome a big threat for you.
But if they spend a lot of time on gambling with a good income then that is not a threat, right? Because even though we spend a lot of time in gambling it does not guarantee that gambling is a threat if we have good control, because with a longer duration in playing gambling it depends on the strategy and also the capital owned, and by having good control of course it's is a skill that allows you to spend more time in gambling because you can manage things well.

At the first place, I think gambling is created for fun and at the same time to earn money. I think it can only harm if you become addicted to it. Like what what they say, "too much is bad". You also become greedy because money involve and that is what is want. Let us just be disciplined enough and must set a limit to ourselves when it comes to gambling

earning money and earning unpredictable rwards really mess with dopamine systems on the brain
it's something to be alert about and always aware.
definitely.

Hey guys!

We are Revain, the biggest review platform for crypto community. It was brought to our attention that crypto casinos are quite popular right now and we’re wondering whether it’s an area worth exploring. Are they legit and fair? How do the they differ from traditional online casinos that accept fiat? What are their main selling points?

We have a bunch of people who love reviewing various projects, exchanges and wallets, and recently they asked us to add crypto casinos category. So we did: https://revain.org/casinos

What you think about the casinos we listed? You can create an account and leave reviews on any casino. We want to understand whether they have any future and should we continue to push this category.

My answer is either a threat or fun that really depends on the person being a gambler.

exactly:
balance is the key.

remember that we can even die of drinking too much water.

so, even water could be in a balance between health and being a threat.

So long as you keep your greed under control and don't start betting amounts you can't afford to lose, then gambling isn't a threat.

In reality, it's only a threat for those with even very low will power, or extreme risk takers that don't know when to call it quits. As such, anybody who has either of these two personality types should probably avoid gambling, as this is an industry where self control is an absolute must.

With that said, it might not be something that is entirely possible to control, since it appears to have a genetic basis: https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/10/191009131740.htm

That's an interesting research, only I'm afraid it can serve as an excuse for not fighting their addiction for some addicted gamblers. Many of us are genetically predisposed to many bad things, such as obesity, promiscuity, alcoholism etc. The key is to find strength within yourself to challenge those predispositions, and, in fact, many brave people succeed in that. It is much more interesting to be one of them, than to be of the whining losers blaming genetics for their failure.

It's a very subjective question. It can be threat if you are like constantly gambling when you have important bills to pay or like you don't earn very much yet you can't get rid of expensive gambling. Gambling should always be treated as "expense" as in long run you can never win, hence, basically you shouldn't consider it as a way to make more money as it's really not a profession.

Gambling is a kind of quick income of profits in the world, but it is difficult for us to win everyday in gambling because it is a 50:50 percent if you lose or win in once gambling. Setting gambling as threat or fun will depends on you perspective and past experience, if for you playing gambling is lucky, because you've earned more profits. But there are some instances, that gambling is a threat, because many gamblers wants to recover they're lose assets by just playing again and again, so that they wouldn't controlled themselves in playing gambling and it reflects to us, as a threat.

Well said mate, If everything is under your control then gambling wouldn't be threat for you, if you can still control yourself form gambling then it would not harm yourself, it will be only fun for you, if you are only considering it as your entertainment, or if you don't bet so much money, knowing that it would be a low chance to win the game,

Once you became addicted in gambling it can destroy your life, you won't be more productive in everything. What you should do to prevent that thing is, you should know how to limit yourself, you should bring only limited amount of your money, so you won't be able to bet so much money, do not be so addicted on it because there is no good things about gambling, if it controls you.

I believe we chose when gambling become threat or fun but we need to prevent a threat to our money when we are playing.
What do you mean, mate? Not really sure that I get the point of this statement. Can you explain it a bit longer?  Undecided
In my opinion, fun or not will depend on how someone's perception of playing gambling. If he feels that gambling is one of the sources to get entertainment, so he will be fun in gambling. While if he thinks too seriously and assumes that gambling is only for money, then it will hard for him to enjoy and have fun in gambling.
Maybe it means choosing to gamble for fun if you can make gambling just entertainment, and when you make gambling for a source of income then maybe it is a threat because you will continue to gamble until eventually it will only threaten your money. But apart from these two factors, I think the threat in gambling will always be there, because gambling is only for fun or even making gambling as a source of income can still be done without threatening your money if you have good control.
