Topic: Is gambling bad to the society? - page 35. (Read 7962 times)

Actually for me, I don't think gambling is bad influence to the society but it depends on how individuals handle gambling.

That is why it's advisable to gamble responsibly and also gamble with what we can afford to lose, also know that gambling is all about luck and chance and not a game of where one can become rich through it and also if we find ourselves to be an addict, we shouldn't hesitate to seek for help and support with from our loved ones or from counselor.

That way will help us to reduce the rate in which we gamble, because if we gamble irresponsibly it can lead or cause us some damages in our lives, such as depression etc which can also lead someone to have mental disorder.

Yes, that's right, because the actions we take will certainly lead and produce something, we need to pay attention to this because if we do something with the wrong steps or without thinking about it, the results might be bad for us. I agree with you, maturity of thought is one of the things that must be done, because that will determine what kind of results we will produce in the future. Usually people who have gambled or are currently gambling, they cannot think clearly until they make mistakes because they were not considered first. With the many cases of loss that occur, perhaps it is one of the results of actions or things that were done without considering it first.

I think that many gamblers lose money beyond their capabilities, because they don't have good thinking or don't have good maturity so they can't accept the losses that occur, which ultimately makes them trapped in gambling and it's difficult to get out. By getting trapped in a gambling addiction slowly and over time they will see bad changes and can harm other people.

If we notice that the bad side of gambling is more than the good side. Because those who play gambling mainly for the sake of fun, at some point they become so addicted to gambling that they cannot get out of gambling addiction even if they want to. Gambling addiction puts people's lives in danger day by day. A person with gambling addiction cannot support his family in a proper and healthy way. A person with gambling addiction can't control his greed once he starts gambling once he wins money in such a way that if I bet twice the amount I will win twice the amount of money he can win twice the amount of bad money if he is lucky. And if the luck is bad, you will lose all your money and return home empty-handed. A person with a gambling addiction gets into a lot of financial debt by gambling constantly. At one point he becomes so heavily in debt that he has no money left to repay the debt until he has to pay the debt with his life.

it is seen badly in many countries due to the restrictive and prohibitive laws that exist, look at China for example, in my opinion, by doing so they make things worse because then that crime ring is created around what is a movement that brings in a lot of money, you know the bets they pay well and therefore everyone wants to get into it, it must be regulated otherwise then everyone does as they please, regarding the states that allow it then it must be said that they take advantage of it by leveraging older people who lose control over the games or by making it become We're all gambling addicts, we need to get our act together

I don't know how much priority is given to gambling in other countries of the world, but gambling is still hated in our country's society(Despite declaring the casino site legit) Even gamblers are not liked by anyone.

Is gambling bad for people that people suffer most financially through gambling which has an adverse effect on society. A person with excessive gambling addiction may become involved in criminal activities such as theft and robbery due to gambling addiction. Gambling addicts are not only hated in the society, but they are also hated in the family because they put their family in a lot of financial problems. Many gamblers end up in debt, which they later sell their family's property to repay. This is why gamblers are labeled as bad people in society.

As long as society can use gambling properly with moderation, they will not gets any problem from gambling. They can feels enjoy when playing gambling and not trying to chase the wins because they knows that can attract more problems, especially when people lose control while playing gambling. The society can also keeps telling how to treat gambling as an entertainment so there will not be abuse of gambling for a way to make money but only for have fun. They can control how they playing gambling and they will know when they can playing gambling with moderation and limitation so they can enjoy gambling as an entertainment. If they can do that, they will have fun without worry with the effect of playing gambling because they can remind each other about the danger of gambling if they use it excessively.

It's normal if some people will defy the instruction about how to uses gambling as an entertainment because they still see gambling is the ways to make money. They can't see about the danger of gambling instead will playing gambling by their way and that can gives them the problems that can leads them to gets addicted to gambling. Many people out there already gets addicted to gambling so those people must be aware of that problem and must take care of themselves while playing gambling. They needs to responsible when playing gambling so they will not have a trouble in gambling and can enjoy the gambling games as a way to have fun. They don't needs to use much money to playing gambling but they must controls themselves and their money to be used to gambling. If they can use limitation while playing gambling, they will stay away from the problem and will know when they must stop from playing gambling.

Gambling itself is not negative for society but the waste of money and unproductivity from gaming alone could be.   Forget the cash side of things which usually people cant stop thinking about; just the idea of running horses races all day and for fun guessing who wins, this is not by itself especially as helpful as producing the next harvest for the winter for example.

  The overall effect of gaming or doing things purely for fun could be criticized without adding in any further details, however in moderation its valid as past time as any other for people who already finished their job and I see no negative in that limited way.

When someone gambles at a reasonable stage, of course they will not have a bad impact on them, yes, as you said, it is very true that when someone gambles to be able to earn income from gambling, of course they will do it often and this will have a bad impact on them and will also be addicted to gambling and lazy to do any work.

A person's winning at gambling is of course just a matter of luck and it is not possible for someone to win often and it would be better for someone to gamble just to entertain themselves and never gamble frequently which will cause us to have financial problems.

Gambling is generally very harmful to an individual, because if a gambler participates in gambling, he is doing wrong from the society's point of view. Because a gambler is an abomination in the eyes of society, and among them if he becomes addicted again becomes the worst cause. As you can see, a gambling addict can never contribute to society. And a threat to the family, he tries to make gambling losses more than what he normally earns. That is why he is identified as a bad person in the eyes of the society.

Actually well said my friend and infact it's just that even as people still complain about gambling having a two sided face as humans the negative side will always be the one reflecting more because we are prone to always promoting or getting the best side out of the negative than the positive and that's why no matter how people complain or advice on how gambling can you easily addicted and the ways to go about it so that you won't fall under that group, many people will still fall victim of that side advice and that's just what holds the faith of gambling being seen as negative to the society.

for me it's because of the bad habits towards it that's why they think it's bad to the society, those set of people who get addicted are the ones which the society give examples of. Gambling have good and bad side but if you look at the bad side you'll think it's not helping in the society, but if you look at the good side then you'll know that gambling is really helping in the society so their is nothing that doesn't have an effect. But you only you chose to know your limits and know the good side of it, that's all about it.

There are no good without evil. Everything to do has the positive and negative side of it and it depends on us to choose a side. Gambling cannot be completely bad to the society since there are no literal effect of it. It is the people who gamble that choose to allow it affect them due to there bad habits in gambling. Once the addiction increases and they become irresponsible gamblers that's when their response to things start affecting them and there loved ones including there families.

You are right boss but I think it's better to say it this way gambling is not good neither is it bad  and at same time gambling is good and also bad . The reason why I said it this way it's because different people with different definition and the way they see it differs but we can't justify only one side of it cause a lot of people are benefiting and at same time a lot of people are also losing their money but I haven't seen someone who gamble for fun anyway when we say gambling for fun I think it's in grade.

Indeed. Gambling itself is not bad, since the gamblers are the ones to decide how they want gambling influence them. Playing to gain wealth is one of the reason why some gamblers are affected negatively. Because this mindset can bring them to more losses, having such desire with a little money you have can only cause big problem.

Gambling can't promise to make you rich, it's a way to entertain ourselves with an incentives if you are lucky. However the possiblity of becoming addicted due to wrong approach and treatment are the few reasons why our society had a bad impression towards it.

Disadvantages and advantages exists in every thing in life, even the best of the world have disadvantages. Gambling is one good activity with too many disadvantages. Which have affected the perspective found around it in every society. Not all gamblers find gaming as a bad activity themselves, of which they're all parts of the society. It's quite too huge a dispute for gambling to ever be compared, as a nice habit in the view of ordinary people; non-gamblers. Good news doesn't travel faster than its opposite. Added to the fact that gambling addiction cases occur most often in the society, people are not expected to hear good responses about gambling. Yet, it doesn't remove the fact that gambling also consists of good effects to the responsible players.

I believe what we all need in this life Is to be disciplined. When a bettor is disciplined, he would have any issue with addiction. The only reason the society see gambling as an irresponsible way of making money is because of the attitude that have been experienced by those gambling addict. First of all, a general age barrier was set to ensure that children don't get one on one experience with gamble, because they are like to fall for addiction and w call them the leaders of tomorrow, how then can we seat back and watch the leaders of tomorrow messing around gambling addiction. I believe everyone who has been gambling for more than 3 years and haven't given themselves to addiction are actually smartand disciplined persons. Because it takes a lot to resist the voice saying "keep playing until you arrive at a huge sum of profit.

It is important in this regard who is in a close circle of friends, this is one of the important factors. In my circle there are no those who abuse games as this would bring discomfort and problems to others as there have been similar cases.Gamblers with addiction bring problems not only to themselves but also to those around them, starting with their friends and loved ones.

Gambling is bad for some in society, and it's bringing about positive change for others too. In the same society, everything is based on who the gambler is and their level of composure.
 
If it's for those who have gambled almost all their lives and have used it as a means to generate wealth but rather end up losing the little that they have, we can consider such people as the bad eggs we have in gambling. 

Of course it would really be always that reflect on personal decisions on which we know that this is something that will really be just that depending into your own perspective towards gambling on which if you are someone whose really that loving on earning money on the most easiest way then you would really be definitely be considering on taking up some engagement with gambling. Gambling literally isnt bad, it is really just that there are people who are really that too greedy and this is why they do really end up miserable because of too much dealing up with gambling which it comes into a point that they are already that
losing their control when it comes to spending and this is what causes for their lives to messed up due to those bad decisions that they had made.

Its bad to society if addiction rate is increasing but it wont really be something that could be all blamed with those physical casinos around and just like on what you had mentioned that when it comes to
online gambling on which it is already rampant now and its easy to deal with then it would be inevitable for someone to be stopped if ever they would be decided on playing gambling
on the spot.

No matter how the society may address the issue of gambling addiction, there are those who would still defy to those instructions. Gambling is very much easy compared with back then, our phones are simple medium to use while at home and since there is no limit or restrictions to the amount one can deposit to gamble then it is more of a personal choice to decide. It is also a good innovative but it is more of a personal decision.
