Gambling is not bad but the individuals make it so. And mostly the irresponsible and addicted gamblers make it bad. Those who are gently playing gamble with a responsible way are doing well in the society and also gambling has helped many ordinary people in the society. Many have used gambling to build houses and start business. So it is not really bad in the society but it is the gamblers spoiled the name "gambling".

Why people think that gambling is bad because those cult boys would do bad things in the society and finally they are in most times caught in the casino center by police so they called it as bad in the society. But it is not.

The problem is that in today's gambling practices we must be aware that more people suffer from some addiction problems than those who gamble responsibly and it is undeniable that gambling can bring more negative effects than positive one s. But in this case it depends on each person also who does it because in the end we cannot evenly distribute all like that, it's just that the majority of people who gamble must have an addiction which in the end this is considered to be bad.

Indeed, i dont want to be naive that im also a gambler and I realize that in the end the negative stigma about gambling is clearly greater than the positive stigma it has, its just that it goes back to the person as i said above where we cannot judge all gamblers as bad people because in the end there are still some gamblers who can still restrain themselves by gambling responsibly. As for someone's judgment about gamblers, it is a judgment that I think is beyond our reach because we cannot regulate other people's views so they are also free to say anything about gambling .

mean, realistically speaking, gambling is a bad thing for society overall...

It creates a lot of suicides, people losing their entire life savings, etc.

There are many things that causes suicide and not only gambling and I have not heard of someone suicide because of gambling but I have heard people killed themselves because of frustration in school. Suicide in school is much more than any other place. And for the live savings, the gambler is an addicted gambler and he is not a responsible gamblers. Always gamble what you can afford to lose.

Gambling can lead to various problems. After someone becomes addicted, if he spends excess of his ability on gambling, he can choose the way of suicide at any time. Others may engage in activities such as robbery or racketeering to manage their gambling money and all this is definitely a threat to a society. But these types of acts are often happening because of gambling and also because of other reasons. I must say gambling has a negative outlook on society but it is created by the gamblers.

There are other types of work that have a negative impact on society. In order to get rid of such situations, along with increasing awareness, self-control is required. It is not only gambling but this strategy can be used in all kinds of activities. If it is played responsibly, it will not be able to spread any bad influence in the society.

Sure, a few, maybe a couple of people overall, might get lucky and earn way more than what they bet, but the vast majority of people lose.

That's just the reality, because it is based on math.

So, in a pure math way, I wouldn't say it is bad, but it definitely takes away money from a lot of people and puts that money in the pockets of the few.

Not sure if that's good or bad though.

Yeah, and fastfood and coca-cola made whole nation look fast, but nobody consider them as bad for society. In general, nobody forces people to go, gamble and to bet all their money. Society do that at free will, then complain and blame gambling in their greediness. Yeah, gambling is bad for society, but society isnt better as well. Imho it is impossible to please society. No matter what and how people do, there will always be dissatisfied.

Let's simplify it, what is actually bad is the behavior of people who are wrong in terms of responding and treating gambling, there are some people who are addicted and there are also some people who remain in the safe zone even though they are quite active gamblers in the sense that they don't experience it. significant negative impacts due to gambling, and you have also said something correct that there is absolutely no coercion from any party including casinos that forces gamblers to gamble excessively, meaning that of course the one who is to blame is the behavior of the gamblers themselves and not casinos or gambling which places bad behavior in a high-risk activity which ultimately causes various disasters, and this is why most people have a bad stigma against gambling, but in my opinion what is more appropriate is that society should put this bad stigma against the behavior of those who gamblers who treat gambling in the wrong way, because all the bad impacts that occur are due to their own actions.

If people in his society know that he often playing gambling without control, people will not wants to close to him because he can gives bad effect to them. They will see that gambling makes him becomes bad and if other people in their society follow that man, sooner or later that can effect more people in that society. We know that because of one man, other people can gets the bad effect so that man needs helps to cure himself.

Lolz 🤣!! This your statement made me laugh. It is not because the person is addicted to gambling that would made people to tell their wards not to go close to the person. Someone who would spoiled would still spoiled without gambling. Like me I grew up in ghetto, I grew up in the place that smoking is legalize in all the roofs. Yet I am not smoking and even the smokes affect me. If someone wants to gamble or join bad gangs. It is not the influence per say but it is the mind of the person. I have been hearing occult people initiate people to join their groups but that also comes from the person acceptance to join.

So I don't believe when you go close to the gambler then the gambler would initiate you. In my area right now. Nobody cares if you are an addicted gambler or not. In normal sense, someone who have something important to do would not closed to an addicted gambler and take him as his friend.

Not only that, many gamblers are portraying bad to themselves and are not responsible when they gamble. This results for people that have seen them ended up badly to look at that moment that gambling is bad to the society because it resulted to making those people's lives miserable. But it is not actually is, but it is them that has made themselves like that. When they're responsible, gambling for fun or for money, they won't be seen as that but it's so hard to control gamblers that losses their emotions.

If people in his society know that he often playing gambling without control, people will not wants to close to him because he can gives bad effect to them.

They needs to responsible in gambling to avoids the bad effects of gambling and will not effects to their society. If it's necessary, people in that society must remind each other not to playing gambling excessively or too often. They will take care each other while they can still playing gambling but with carefully.

I agree with you from the first sentence because normally people see gambling as bad activity so they don't want their children to involve in it. And children are influenced by their friends in school and in working places. And because of the way people see gambling in the society making gamblers to even hide and play gamble in a hidden places.

But I disagree on the first sentence in second paragraph. There are many things that causes suicide and not only gambling and I have not heard of someone suicide because of gambling but I have heard people killed themselves because of frustration in school. Suicide in school is much more than any other place. And for the live savings, the gambler is an addicted gambler and he is not a responsible gamblers. Always gamble what you can afford to lose. I deposited money to spinarium casino for about 3 or 4 days now but it has not reflected in my balance but I am not worried because I only deposit what I know I can lose which will not affect me mentally and physically.

If it is how we look at the situation, means that everything which may make people lose their money or even their life are bad things (not only gambling)?
Why we should blame gambling for such accident while it is purely people's responsibility.
They suicides because of their own irresponsibility, but why gambling is the one to be blamed?
Here in my country just happened a 22 years old son killed his father because his father did not buy him a console game, with the same standard, should we blame the console game?

Yes, if we look all aspects about gambling then most of the gamblers harmed by the negative effects of gambling and if we gamble responsibly or consider gambling as for entertainment then it would be a source of pleasure. It’s totally depending on the people’s consideration. Most gamblers have lack of Self-controlling power. They forget when they need to stop. It is true that there are lots of bad habits that can harm the society not only by the gambling effects. Advantage and disadvantages both are very common so the main thing is that cannot conduct responsible gambling then it affect the society.

Gambling has a negative impact not only on gamblers, but also on their families and society. As a result, gamblers are looked down upon in many societies and families.

One thing I agree with you is that gamblers are less afraid of losing money from gambling if they gamble responsibly. But if they become addicted and gamble repeatedly, they lose the most. Moreover, we should take gambling only as entertainment, it should never be considered as a means of earning money. Those who choose gambling as a means of earning money are wrong because people can lose their entire money from this gambling which can later put them in danger.

Aside from this, most people that have come to view gambling as being totally bad to the society are mostly those that saw it in movies - there are movies when gangsters or drug dealers are seen in casinos gambling so they tend to view anyone who engages in any gambling activity as either a drug dealer or a criminal.

And the funny thing is that, after having this mindset whn they go out they’ll stumble upon a gambling addict and that too will convince them that gambling is bad - they won’t even want to know if it can also serve as a form of entertainment or not, to them they see anyone gambling as being irresponsible human.

Theirs something I understand with gambling, if you are desperate with gambling that much it can affect your mode of thinking or reasoning, but some people don't know that such thing is one of the things that affect people with gambling that makes people outside to condemn gambling so far, what us to understand is that gambling can change your state or status when you are more desperate with gambling.

A fruit knife is also bad for society if you don't use it correctly. Nuclear bombs are made of several kilos of material. And they cause great harm to living things. But if you use it correctly, you can produce nuclear energy. And with it you can meet the electricity needs of society. So, whether something is good or not depends on how you use it. If you can use gambling as entertainment, I think you can create a happy society. If you turn gambling into an addiction, you will probably get bad results. I think subjects can cause good and bad things, not objects.

Everything has its disadvantage and when it is not handled properly it can be a problem that can ruin one's life, this is how gamble is too. Their are other things that may be good to the society but when it is not use very well it can be a problem to the society . Gambling is never a problem to the society, it is only people that makes gambling to be a problem to themselves. Understanding gamble and playing with amount you can afford to lose is never a problem.

Yes, if we look all aspects about gambling then most of the gamblers harmed by the negative effects of gambling and if we gamble responsibly or consider gambling as for entertainment then it would be a source of pleasure.

It is true that there are lots of bad habits that can harm the society not only by the gambling effects. Advantage and disadvantages both are very common so the main thing is that cannot conduct responsible gambling then it affect the society.

It isnt really that shocking that the word gambling, then it does give out that kind of immediate thinking about gambling addiction on which this has already been that part
of most people minds and impressions that its something that bad, without even trying out to realize that what makes it bad is into those times or moment that a certain gambler had
become that irresponsible towards his actions towards it on which having no moderation and control towards their spending towards gambling activity on which this causes up that huge wreck into their finances
and gambling is to be blame which is really that a usual impression.

If we do really tend to dig through then it would really be that pretty obvious on whose the one is really that at fault on which the gambler itself.
There are some gamblers whom i have known for long time that even doing gambling for so long, they didnt make themselves that getting wrecked. Why? they are really
just that responsible and mindful about on the funds that they are making use of.

Yes you are absolutely right because gambling is never bad but people take it in bad way personally. We often see card playing in a bad light in the society but in reality card playing is not bad at all but it can be an important way to pass the time. We look at a negative view of gambling in society but if you actually imagine, you will see multiple important benefits of gambling.
It is an important means of spending time in a loneliness man. Again gambling is considered an important means of spending time for a busy person. But we personally drive gambling in various negative directions which do not bring anything good in the society at all. If the personal attitude is changed then gambling is not a bad thing at all but an important pastime to pass the time.

It is not enough to consider gambling as a bad influence on society. There are hundreds of bad habits in the society that lead people to horrible behavior. However, gambling causes people to suffer psychologically as well as mentally harm. Gambling is largely responsible for many types of crime organizations, small and large in society. Gambling causes a family to suffer from economic disaster as well as various social rebukes. So there is an important harmful aspect of gambling in society which we can never neglect.

From this topic we get that gambling isnt bad for society, only individuals get serious problems with it, only some get really addicted. Turns out that is actually gives benefits for society in form of taxes and variety of entertainment. And somehow people consider it is as bad, something to be ashamed of, and to avoid people who gamble. Dont you find it strange? Cheesy

I'm not sure how you came to this conclusions but probably if we put everything in the case and consider it 100% we'll get to an outcome where gambling is more of a problem and more on the bad side than on the good side.

can you develop a little bit your conclusions here?

I think there is nothing wrong with gambling, although yes I understand that this is a risky activity, we can still be in a safe zone if we know, understand and are aware of everything well, especially in terms of risks.

This means that whether gambling is good or bad depends on how well you treat it, on how disciplined you are in terms of balancing yourself with risk, in the sense of maintaining an approach that does not exceed the limits of your abilities.

Gambling is an activity that involves money, opportunities and risks, the majority of gamblers are always more focused on opportunities, because yes of course everyone is certainly enthusiastic if money is the prize, but of course that is the wrong approach, and in the end it is proven that many gamblers are addicted and experiencing many bad effects. Information can spread very widely, especially regarding bad things, and I am sure that because of this the majority of people have a bad perspective or stigma towards these activities, but that is normal.

Nothing at all?
I mean, of course freedom is good and people should be able to choose to do what they want with their money
including blowing up everything
but maybe for people with low level of literacy we would be better as a society teaching them before giving them games to lose all their money

They are only getting rich from the money they make from selling predictions, and those who bought the predictions are not sure if the result is going to be good or bad, which means they are going to lose on both sides. The money spent to buy the predicted score and also the money that was staked will all be gone. It makes no sense to spend money buying predictions that you are not even sure about the result. Some people got lucky that their bought prediction gave them winning a few times, and as a result, they gave their whole hearts to it.

Yes, exactly. And that's how they grow their business.

Imagine they have a list of 1000 people, they simply divide the list in two, for the first 500 people they say "hey, buy this stock!", and for the second 500 people they say "This stock is going down, sell now!".

Same stock, completely different advice, but at the end of the day one will probably nail it, and you have 500 people listening, and they will be happy. They will simply ignore the other 500.
