Topic: Is gambling bad to the society? - page 14. (Read 7962 times)
Yeah, gambling affects the brain, and if you have a person that is young, with their brain still being developed, gambling can affect that person even more.
Even as an adult gambling affects the brain, because we are all wired in a similar way, we want to get the reward, that's what we are seeking all the time.
Casinos know this and they use it to their advantage of course.
Let me first exonerate casinos here, casinos are only the providers of gambling and gambling itself is a neutral activity that if you do not meet it by yourselves is harmless to you. And even if you meet the casino to engage in it does not automatically mean that it will harm you provided you know your way around it.Even as an adult gambling affects the brain, because we are all wired in a similar way, we want to get the reward, that's what we are seeking all the time.
Casinos know this and they use it to their advantage of course.
As for the younger people's brains still growing, well, I say that in gambling, we should not conclude on that because many young people will definitely act better than some mature people, all that matter is their upbringing and their nature. I said this because I was introduced to many unspeakable things when I was so young, and I tell you I resisted most of them but one. The only one I knew I yielded to was later also resisted by me because my upbringing is good and personally, I have a mind of my own. This is why I do not undermine the ability of some young people to say NO whereas some adults may even childishly say YES.
But still, the proper guidance for young people matters and we should all learn the dangers of gambling regardless of our age.
We know that gambling is a bad thing and there are many risks in a person's life, especially when the person becomes addicted. But mostly we know that gambling is basically a criminal activity in every society, which people don't like. In particular, we know that the ancient Moors never condoned gambling, and they did not like it, so gambling was seen as a huge crime in many societies. Gambling has been made illegal in many countries, and gambling has been legalized in many countries. But in today's era most of the people gamble through online casinos due to which the society does not know that a person is addicted to gambling. So in today's society many people are gambling through online which is not caught by the eyes of the society, and such activities are increasing day by day due to which the number of gambling addicts is increasing in the society now.
No, you find the meaning of gambling wrong. It was not bad for many reasons, and you don't have to say it caused a lot of illegalities and criminal activities because it was just the person who chose to do that and made use of the casino as a tool for their bad intentions. Clearly, it was not gambling that made it bad, but it was the wrong practice of most gamblers. If these gamblers are responsible enough and know that it is illegal in their country, I don't think they have to push through. If you agree that gambling is a bad thing, then I don't think it is necessary for you to post about gambling, but you are still here and want to promote it negatively, which you should not do because that is a false accusation.

it's just better to go on without listening to other people's opinions so much
it's a solo journey at the end of the day, we meet friends and all but we are born and die alone
it is what it is
as crazy as it may sound
We don't have to listen to other people but sometimes we are weak and makes us thinks about what people say. That can makes our emotion change into bad and we can not see what is good for us and we can also become temper. Although that is a solo journey for us but we must not forget that we lived in a society and if you and your neighbor are close and often to talk or meet daily, you should consider to be careful when we are with them.it's a solo journey at the end of the day, we meet friends and all but we are born and die alone
it is what it is
as crazy as it may sound
At least, we are human which needs other people in our life and we can lived alone. If we choose to lived alone, we can moves to a place that doesn't have other people in around us. But that will looks strange for other people. Well, that will depends on each people. If you want to playing gambling, it is better you hide from other people so they will not judge us because that can bring a bad effect to other people.
There are different societies from place to place, some societies consider gambling as a normal activity while there are some areas where gambling is considered a criminal act and people in those societies do not look favorably on gamblers. Especially in Muslim countries, gambling is criminalized and those who gamble are punished by law. Gamblers in those societies are frowned upon by the people of the society and try to avoid them at all times. But apart from these, all the other countries that have allowed direct gambling have many physical casinos in their country where people can conduct all the gambling activities.
I agree with you. Basically, the tendency to take gambling as normal socially is ruining the people with excessive addiction because gambling addicts are very careless about their own as well as family maintenance which is harmful to the society as well as the country. That is why there is an attempt to stratify gambling in different ways from country to country. As citizens they should be allowed to act independently. But as far as I know most of the countries have open and informal gambling which is a form of entertainment for the people of that country. Socially gambling may be negative for many people but it varies from place to place and country to country. 
Betting can never become a profession. A profession is nothing more than selling labor or some skill that generates market value. Betting has no way of adding value, there is no way of knowing whether it will work or not. It is just betting. This should always be a way of passing the time or some kind of hobby. It is impossible in any situation to guarantee anything, any value, any money.
So when some people still use gambling as a profession, they must realizes that they will never success as becoming a profession needs to have skills, experience, and money. There will be other things that will be needed to become a professional in gambling and that will not many people can do that as the requirement is very difficult. When a person in a society wants to become a professional in gambling, they must think what he needs to prepare and how his society will look at him. That can attract so many opinion about him and if more people follow what he did, that just effect to that society and more people who playing gambling will increase. That will makes that society becomes bad and if there are no people reminds about their gambling habit, But if people in that society can use gambling for just have fun and not have any intention to make money, they will not have a problem anything from gambling.

Gambling can affect human characters based on what you have in mind to participate in gambling, that's why you dont need to put all your trust in gambling, you can that inquisitive in participating in gambling and base on that your mentality maybe changed
What I want us to know concerning gambling is that, in gambling we need to learn some certain things of gambling before we venture into it so that when we lose we will not experience anything bad, so therefore in gambling what we supposed to know it's advantages and disadvantages before we enrolled on it..
You are right but the fact remains that no matter how much people learn about the disadvantage and advantages of gambling people will always get affected whenever they lose money because emotions is actually one of the things that defines us as a human and there is no way it can be averted especially in gambling, however the only good thing about knowing the advantages and disadvantages is for the gamblers to know what they are up against and getting ready for anything that nights comes up later from the gambling because nothing is certain for sure. However you have a point on the trusting aspects of gambling because as someone who strive for higher things in the future putting all hope in gambling is another way of making a big mistake because if they failed in gambling they would feel as if the whole world is against them and it could affect them both physically and mentally.

I am surprised by the information that, for example, in the USA, gambling is allowed in many places, literally in several states, but betting is allowed in many places. And this is strange.
Personally, I think that betting and gambling are practically the same thing, and both of these phenomena can lead to poverty or strong psychological dependence. And it seems like the states know the statistics, but for some reason they so strongly separate betting and gambling.
Perfectly Said, in as much as gambling has negative effects on some people around the world there are others that actually benefit from it and that's the truth... gambling can be a persons downfall and it can also be your upliftment, a lot of people in Nigeria have won huge amounts of money from just little amounts they staked, would you say it's bad to them? The answer is no, instead those persons will be celebrated.. gambling should simply be done in moderation, in that way I don't think it can be a problem to the society
gambling will end with a win or a loss but it is possible that the players have a greater chance of losing and that is natural, because the house has a greater chance of winning and that applies in the long term. besides that behind the many people who experience defeat there must be people who win but indeed when compared to the number there may be more people who experience defeat. getting a win in gambling big or small is certainly not bad, because that is the profit that is obtained.the bad thing about gambling for society is a problem created by the individual himself who gambles beyond good self-control or in other words they really hope that gambling will be able to give them victory or profit, but the victory in gambling certainly cannot be obtained as expected, because victory in gambling tends to depend on luck and no one knows when luck will be on their side.
So for society: I think this is also the cause of other social evils such as prostitution, drugs, and fighting, and do you believe the severity is enough to lead to murder?
Yeah, gambling affects the brain, and if you have a person that is young, with their brain still being developed, gambling can affect that person even more.
Even as an adult gambling affects the brain, because we are all wired in a similar way, we want to get the reward, that's what we are seeking all the time.

That is one of the few restrictions I agree with regarding gambling. It should be forbidden to minors, just as people who exclude themselves from gambling should be respected as much as possible. I think that this and a little mathematical-financial education would help a lot socially both to limit the negative effects of gambling and to improve people's finances but I don't trust that politicians are in favor of it.

Although I understand that there are some people who come by doing research, but that is only a minority.
Most of the gamblers always focus on the name of the reward based on an unreasonable mindset and hope, they have a good spirit but their biggest mistake is choosing the wrong place to grow their money.
Of course as you said that the casino knows this, one of the reasons why the casino makes money the object of victory I am sure that the casino knows that there is no one who does not need money, and also there are always people who act without being based on common sense and the right perspective on everything they find.

Gambling might be bad for some people, but the same time a lot of people are making money from it just because you can’t control yourself means that gambling is bad, greed is one of the major factors that people are addicted to . The moment you are able to control yourself less your chances of becoming an addict reduces. All these gambling issues to me have to do with personality. I also gamble a lot but I have no reason to complain just because I know how to manage my gambling habits correctly. In fact, I gamble every day, but even with me gambling every day, I have a specific amount of money that i use in gambling and I don’t go beyond my budget. because one of the mistake people is they want to make back the money they have lost and they also want to be sure of every game they play by adding more money, so let’s be careful of how we manage our gambling habits.
It's rare to find a person who would say they are winners in gambling, most of them are either in a small loss or totally wrecked. Gambling is made to be an entertainment with risk included but it doesn't mean it is a charity that will give out money just like that to many gamblers.
A lot of losses will happen and winners occasionally come out to tell their story. Why? Because it's rare to be a winner in this industry. The only good part that a gambling business could do is the tax it will give to the community and that will help a lot considering the percentage it will give from all the profits they made. Just saying that will make you think where they get all the money. Of course it's from the players.

Yes, I agree with you that gambling has its own benefits, despite the fact that a large percentage of people have observed that concluded that gambling is a bad habit to involve ourselves with. As some people are sad about losing money in gambling, some people are in happiness due to the benefits they have derived from gambling, so it is left for everyone to judge that through themselves. But the truth that is there is that the negative impact of gambling is greater than the positive impact on people. If we are to observe well, it is really clear that gambling is really a bad thing because it has causes a lot of damage to people's lives. Out of 100% of people that are gambling in a day, if we should look at the percentage of people benefiting from it, it is just like 5%, so as for me, I will say that gambling is a is a bad thing. I am a gambler, and I know how much I have wasted on gambling.
