Topic: Is gambling bad to the society? - page 10. (Read 7981 times)

It turns out that the player plays and interacts with his consciousness and attitude to the game. This is one of the main elements that will not allow us to lose our temper. I have not expected anything from the game for a long time, but am only satisfied with small victories and am glad that they happen. Also, many have an inadequate understanding of what percentage of the total number of players wins, and they need to know this. And if you take a huge number of games, it turns out that it is impossible to win the casino, but this is clear anyway, because all this was not invented to make each player rich. Each of the players simply assures himself that he will not be a loser.

Good or bad effect would really be that entirely depending on how you would really be treating it up because on the time that you would really be that making it as some sort of money making thing
then this is where you would really be that putting up yourself on such trouble or problem on which we know that when it comes into this aspect then it would really be that hard for you to consider
out on what gambling truly is on the time that you would really be playing. We do know that when it comes into this situation then gambling is really just that for fun but it turns out
for most people that this is something that a thing that could bring or give up money and thats why they do really end up on being desperate because of this approach.

Still, it is impossible to say with certainty and give a clear answer to this question, whether gambling has a good or bad effect, only to a greater or lesser extent it can be done. Each country and the people in this country determine this themselves, and if the country's leadership sees more negative in gambling games, then they are banned, although at the same time, shadow games arise. Some countries even create gambling zones so that only there players can play. In general, there are many options in fact and there is no clear answer to this question, each case must be considered specifically in each country, whether the community of players needs it or not.

I agree with you. If you accept losing with happiness, the game becomes entertainment rather than a source of stress. This helps maintain emotional balance and avoid disappointment. In this way, losing stops being something destructive and becomes a natural part of the experience, bringing an element of happiness and satisfaction from the game itself.

Gambling can affect self-esteem, relationship's, physical and mental health,work performance and social life. It can harm not only the person who gambles but also the family, friends, workplaces and communities.

So with all this I think if they put an restrictions on gambling it's not a bad idea at all, first why is gambling a problem?

Gambling can stimulate the brain's rewards system much like drugs or alcohol can, leading to addiction. If you have a problem with compulsive gambling, you may continually chase bets that lead to losses, use up savings and create debt.

You may hide your behavior and even turn to theft or fraud to support your addiction. So with my conclusion and my observation towards this gambling is really cousin harm to the life of those ones who are addicted to it most their families.

 Secondly what are the social problem caused by gambling?
(1) Depression and suicide
(2) bankruptcy, family-break up
(3) domestic abuse
(4) assault, fraud
(5) theft, and even homeless
Addiction to gambling is link to a range of serious personal and social harm such as those things I mentioned. These effects can be devastating to the individual as well as their friends, family, workplaces and community.

This are the harms and with all this are the reasons why, they see people who gambles as a distraction towards the society and the most people who are into all this are the addicted ones. So how is gambling harmful to the society, ills associate with problem gamblers are widespread and often go beyond and addition to gambling.

People who gambles can be at risk of this following categories of harm.
(1) Financial harms
(2) Erosion of savings
(3) Filling for bankruptcy
(4) Relationship conflicts
(5) Neglect of relationship with significant other
(6) Neglect of relationship with children
(7) Extend family and friends
( Social isolation
(9) Emotional or psychological distress

So I don't really blame the people who sees gambling as a bad thing to the society, meanwhile If the younger ones take of the steps of being addicted don't you think they'll experience all this as well. So gambling it's bad to the society nevertheless it's also helping in the other hands, to ones which are benefiting and earning from it.

What is the mindset of a gambler? On my opinion pathological gamblers play the cope with a life stresses. Near-misses and personal choice give some gamblers a sense of control, winning money. Others believe they can beat the casino and win real money.

So the mindset are those things that attract harm to them and the society because they are focused on the money, and that's why I said it's also helping some people in other hands and it's also killing some people right now in the society. Behavior also involves that makes it look bad to the society, while trying to get back lost money by gambling more( chasing losses) lying to family members or other to hide the extent of your gambling.

Risking or losing important relationships, a job, or school or work opportunities because of gambling. Asking others to bail you out of financial trouble cause you have gambled money away.

So what I'm trying to conclude is that gambling isn't something you should take as a hobby or as a means of earning just to make a living. So what are your thoughts?

The tax is mainly levied in countries where casinos and gambling are fully legal and the people of the country can freely participate in gambling. But in countries where casinos or gambling are not legal, there is usually no income tax paid when setting up clandestine gambling establishments because these illegal establishments are created largely without the government's knowledge. However, if you participate in gambling for entertainment and have that mentality, gambling can never be harmful to society, but for those who participate in gambling with the goal of making money, gambling can have a bad effect on society.

Of course that is how gambling works. Not putting your hope on winning and just enjoy the fun is the best way to gamble because when you have those thoughts in you, it will be easy to gamble without overdoing it and there will be no sign of regrets.

It is when you start thinking that it is possible for you to make a fortune with gambling that you have put yourself into a tight corner because you will always believe you can hit the jackpot whenever you are gambling and that can make you lose self control on gambling and become an addict because you are not gambling the right way.

I have read a post in this forum where someone was trying to capture the advantages of gambling to the society. I read carefully to understand the advantages and it seems I was disappointed in the end. I saw reasons like;
Gambling Helps us to have fun;
And the rest bla bla of a thing. So, the menace gambling has caused the society is large and cannot match the purported good they are talking about.

I agree with you. If you accept losing with happiness, the game becomes entertainment rather than a source of stress. This helps maintain emotional balance and avoid disappointment. In this way, losing stops being something destructive and becomes a natural part of the experience, bringing an element of happiness and satisfaction from the game itself.

There are always pros and cons in almost everything. For some, gambling does have a bad effect. Well, I won't argue with that because the effect on one person might cause terrible consequences not just for himself but also for people around him. On the other hand, the gambling industry generates a significant amount of tax revenue, which is very helpful to society as well.

A gambler who does this has lost his emotional control of losing. He can't make a great player and is prone to losing. Sadness and anger contribute to the reason why those living with addiction disturb the peace of their loved ones. It's of zero importance to develop negative impressions regarding losses. Gamblers should approach losing with happiness, it'll help.

The problem in gambling that society see is that people lose more than they can afford, became addicted after. If this is a crime, than every bank is a crime organization because they issue credits and allow to spend more than a person can afford, also creating people that are addicted from extra money. Also a lot of families have troubles, because family member took loans and fail to return them. I feel like people have often negative feeling towards banks (but that is often because of envy that banks have more money), but nobody say that banks are bad for society and their performance is a crime.

Gambling is a crime in society and it can cause damage to a family if the person is addicted to gambling. We know that a gambling addict wants to be far away from family and friends and they prefer solitude.  When a gambler loses control of himself and does not survive loneliness then he must have become addicted and he does not want to be among people but he is busy gambling. When there is such a person in a family, that family will definitely go to ruin and can cause a lot of damage to that society. Many become addicted to gambling and then become mentally broken, it can lead to criminal acts in the society and various pressures on the family which are harmful to a society. That is why gambling is bad in the eyes of the society and it is not accepted most of the time, although in the present era most of the people are connected to the online casino due to which most of the people in the society do not know who is addicted to gambling, but it is definitely harmful.

They have adopted the wrong mindset towards gambling to get high profits, has he ever looked for data on gamblers getting rich from gambling except bookies or casinos? If you find data comparing rich gamblers with poor gamblers, share the link in this thread so we can check the source of the news. So think realistically that the statistical data of gamblers will get worse because they expect high profits but they don't know the financial management to set the lowest limit for allocating funds for gambling. Be a wise gambler and be responsible with your finances, gambling is just entertainment and gambling is not a machine for getting rich automatically.

It is not really that difficult to understand why this happens, people by nature want to obtain the most benefits with the least amount of effort, so even if they could earn money by working hard on one of the many jobs available to them, if they think they can do this with gambling then that is the path they will decide to follow, as in their mind it is way easier to make money this way while obtaining some fun, than by working a great deal of hours on another job.
