These days I have been observing the people in my neighborhood, I see that they are very emotionally unstable people, to the point that with any small argument they start physical aggression, so I keep thinking about the following: should emotionally unstable people play in a casino? online? And when I look deeply into this question, the answers that come to mind are that we cannot recommend casinos to people who are mentally unstable and have a history of depression and physical assaults. I say this because nowadays it has become very normal for friends to recommend that their friends create accounts at a casino based on the referral link

There's nothing wrong with that, but you need to be careful about who we recommend playing at the casino, because mentally unstable people are impatient and when they lose money at the casino they will charge the person who recommended it to them and this can lead to a serious problem in which the A mentally unstable person starts by physically pleasing the person who recommended him to play at the casino. 2 months ago there was a casino that paid a lot of money to famous people to publicize the casino, what happened was a big disaster

many people started to put money in the casino that the famous people recommended, these people thought they were just putting money in the casino, playing and then the money would start multiplying to the point where they would have constant profits, but 2 months later these people saw nothing Of course they wouldn't see anything because they lost in the game. but because they didn't understand that, they didn't know what a casino was and how it works, so these people started threatening celebrities, people wanted revenge, so let's be very careful who we talk to and recommend a casino

I think that more than the peer pressure, seeing your friends win is what pushes many people to eventually try to gamble, after all you know your friends better than anyone else and if you see them winning knowing very well they do not have superior gambling skills or anything like that, then it is completely normal to think that if they can do it then you should be able to do it as well, and in a way you are right as you can gamble just as they do, however there is no guarantee you will get the same results too.

My attitude was different from the other gamblers,I don’t refer my friends to join gambling.Because if they had interest in the gambling,then I will teach them gambling by using my own time.Teaching the gambling to the interested person will be good as compared to share all your known friends about gambling to get the referral bonus.If your friend had won by your teaching of gambling,it will be your proud moment.The happiness you received from your friend win is not more then your own winning in the gambling.Because you just winning money on your win.But on your friends win,you get some excitement because your student had won the game based on your tips.

Peer pressure can have a good effect, especially when it comes to things like gambling and betting. When you see someone win big and they boast to you, you will feel like gambling, no doubt, since sadly you don't see how many people around you are actually losing money when gambling. If a friend shows off his big win to which lets say if he won with one single bet and got lucky, it definitely will make you thin why not you. But I don't think someone tipping you money to place a bet is a form of peer pressure. You are receiving free money. Why not just try your luck and leave?

Im not that a type of person on who could really be that easily be influenced no matter how close we are or we've been friends for too long or being simply a colleague but doesnt mean that you could really be able to mandate me on what are the things that i must do. It isnt really that something that you would really be needing to do if it really against your own principles, there are really just that people who cant really say no with their friends and this is why they would really be forced or getting influenced on the things which those people around you would be doing.I can say that you are really that a type of person on who could really get easily hooked up on which it is something that not really that recommendable. Gambling catalyst? yes for some people but i do believe that it wont really be that something a main thing which would really affect out person to play. We could really be able to play directly without having those kind of influence and this do simply means that it would really vary on someones interest and preference into a particular time since not all would really be having the feeling on playing gambling specially if they dont have money.  Cool


The gamblers should not follow the idea of other people.Because all the gamblers will recommended their own casino for the referral bonus.But the gambler should know this fact before to start the gambling in their life time.I had become the gambler by my own ideology.Some people said me their is the gambling was their based on the cryptocurrency.So I had switch the offline gambling to the online crypto based gambling.The gamblers should influence the other people to get into gambling who doesn't have enough knowledge in the gambling.

deciding not to be friends just because the bad influence of his own friend invitation to me is worse. we cannot judge our friends or take full blame when we fall into bad things at gambling because friends invite us. its true that our friends invite us to do bad things but completely all of that we ourselves can control because even if our friends invite us to continue betting if we have the commitment to say no to gambling Im sure we not follow our friends invitation.

and for me, I never choose friends, it just that I learn the character of all my friends so that when they ask me bad things I have prepared a reason to refuse the invitation.
We can't judge our friends or blame them entirely, but we can choose who to be friends with. Most of what happens is that we choose the wrong friend because we think he is a good friend even though after we have been friends for some time, we know he is not a good friend. I have experienced this many times, but I don't judge or blame him completely but limit my friendship with him so that unpleasant things don't happen to me and him. It depends on how we react. When we don't want to be friends with him, that's also okay. He should understand the reason when we tell him the truth.

Studying all the characters of friends is very necessary so that unwanted circumstances and situations do not trap us. We want to prevent something bad from happening to us, so it's normal to choose who to be our friend.

Your own stand will definitely be tested when peer pressure to do such a thing happens. It is important to prioritize responsible behavior and decision-making and not be encouraged to do things such as gambling when you are not interested. Remember, saying no and prioritizing your well-being is always okay. Avoiding peer pressure can be a tricky task, but it is essential to maintain your individuality and stay true to yourself.

It's a great study that can help anyone deal with peer pressure. But usually, the situation and conditions will not always be the same, making us try to adjust to those circumstances. But we must be able to politely refuse when our friends invite or even force us to follow them because we know that the invitation is not good for us. That is why we must always be careful in making decisions so that we do not make the wrong decision. Avoiding peer pressure we have often encountered and faced, but it depends on how we deal with that pressure. If we can give good reasons, our friends should understand our situation and not force us to follow them. If he keeps pushing us, we can avoid him, and that's not good company.

The reason why many people are involved with gambling is the ability to make them money in a very short time, and seeing people winning good amount of money even add more fire to the desire, on the other way, I believe this is what makes gambling a very treacherous path anyone can venture on.

The chances of making mistakes are everywhere, the only thing left is to limit your risk by lowering the amount of money you want to use for gambling, there is nothing that works more than this.

The reason why I don't have friends today is because of the path they choose to walk on, too mamy people are so focused on quick money,
One of the major things that makes people do what they are not supposed to do is the high influence their friends have on them,peer pressure has a lot of negative impact on friends, especially the ones that do not have a solid stand in their decision,they are easily influenced because they follow what their friends tell them
Instead of keeping a stand and making a decision that will be best for him.I agree with you on limiting the number of friends to have because when you are alone,you know what's good for you,and do what's best for you because those friends that would have influenced your character and attitude are nowhere near you.When one is in a group,it makes them have unnecessary competition that lures them to do evil.I control the few friends I have, therefore,I set the pace for them to follow,so I can't be negatively influenced.

Nothing is interesting in having friends who will only pressurize you at your own expenses and leave you on your own to face the consequences, any friendship that cannot add to me but rather take away from the little i have worked for will be dissociated from me, if you can improve my life then you can't constitute a nuisance to it, some gamblers are having limitations because of the friends they have, they cannot make decisions on their own without involving them in, all these are bad catalyst that drives one backwards in gambling.

Yes, solicitation or influence from friends can make us follow what they say even though we know that what they say is not a good thing or idea for us. And rather than getting a negative impact from our friend's invitation later, it is better for us not to follow it and refuse it carefully to avoid any problems. And if that's the case, we'd better avoid making friends with them than something will happen to us later.

For this reason, we must be able to select our friends so that no one has a negative influence on fellow friends. And we can also have good friendships for the long term because good friends are hard to find.

Did you actually leave your friends because they chose the wrong path? You should have made them understand that it is not the right thing to do, and even after that they didn't stop, you shouldn't still leave them forever because your friends are the only people who will stand by your side when the whole world might leave you alone and don't even care about you, so losing friends, especially good ones, is not a very good thing regardless of what they choose to do.

However, you are right that a lot of people these days are always looking for ways to make a lot of money in a very short period of time, and gambling is considered a way to do that which is not true but people don't get it, they think they can win a lot of money from it when they literally are losing all the time.
Sometimes it is inevitable to part ways with your friends or even your loved ones, it is never an easy decision but when they want to bring you aboard on the roller coaster they call life, you only have two options, to accept and ruin yourself in the process or to let them go, this is often a decision the partner of an addicted person needs to take, and in many cases they endure for years hoping for their partner to change their ways, but once they realize this will not happen the only healthy action they can take at the time is to leave.

That's actually good for you cause you're too brave to cut them off especially the long-term friendships. I have some friend where we called him as "GM or Gambling Master" cause every time, everywhere we go like eating outside he would just yell something like he won then he will show us the money prize. Of course from my friends they would literally want to experienced something like that but me knowing that friend who's already gambling for a long time so there's no wonder he's winning crazy amount.

So there's my friends asking him how they would win something that big, of course he told them how and warn them about the risk which is good. Then they just simply impulsively gambling hoping they won that amount. Maybe peer pressure or influence of my friend GM did not work for me since I've already know the consequences of gambling and plus the experience. After losing $100 cause them to stop and cry about it. They can't do anything about it since my friend GM warned them about the risk that gambling is literally based on luck.

This is true but the reality is its very hard to get profit on gambling in a short period of time due to house edge and limited bankroll of players. Most likely we need to be lucky earlier or have enough bankroll to withstand long lose streak until winning streak occur that will give money.

Gambling is popular for a source of entertainment through their attractive games that promised huge return when you hit a jackpot bet. 1:1 payout bet is already not popular since most players like a game like slot that gives opportunity to win big by betting small amount. I think this is what attract the most to players.

All those people who are addicted to gambling will really have problem in their families because I don't think their parents or wife will be able to take it softly with them,everybody knows what gambling is,that is why the moment someone wants to start it,everybody will be out begging and making sure that the person stops because the implications that follows gambling addiction is something that one cannot take.

Sure they will, but most of them (compulsive gamblers) are not usually concerned about the negative effect it is going to cause; maybe not to even be at peace with their family, but they usually feel not bothered because all that really matters to them at that moment is to place bets and make wins. Some gamblers addicted to gambling who realize their bad gambling habits and put effort into stopping them will definitely do so, no matter the peer pressure. Having the influence of peer pressure doesn't mean that a person must become a compulsive gambler; it's only when the person allows themselves to lose control while gambling.
Pressure from friends usually influences someone to start following him. This usually happens in a teenager where when a teenager gets a challenge, they might have the courage to accept the challenge but some don't feel the courage to do it. Even if their friends still ridicule them, they still don't want to do it because their parents have taught them not to pay too much attention to the challenges that come from their friends. Usually the challenges from their friends are often unreasonable, which makes a teenager fall into the wrong path so that they are not aware that they have done things that they should not.

But what is even more dangerous is when peer pressure takes the form of an invitation to gamble in the name of solidarity among friends. That might get a teenager to join the circle of friends which will eventually make him addicted to gambling in the future. And if it has happened, his parents will find it difficult to get him out of gambling addiction unless there is awareness from the teenager that what he is doing is wrong. It is necessary to end it immediately.

Yeah, in a perfect world, for sure no one in their right frame of mind are going to encourage or help people to gamble and or have their first taste of playing like in a casino whether online or offline. But in the world that we move in, there are ways to get addicted even without any peer pressure as online gaming is prevalent specially during the pandemic and now it's hard stop this gambling addiction once it sets in. And so whether we let our friends know or not, and maybe they are also thinking the same, not to let you know as well. But this is gambling, it can destroy relationship and so it's better not to teach anyone or influence them to gamble.
Been positive and keeping good company with definitely make one improve when handling problems. The kind of people we rolled with, will definitely influence our choice and the decisions we makes. The things that keeps us awake and frighten should be stop with immediate action, because these gambling activities will tear us apart, we need to keep backup plans incase things doesn't play out as planned, this gambling space always have a way to drained our accounts. It's not about hardship that leads most people to gamble, but curiosity and peers pressure and influence made one to gamble.

We must understand that even if something does not make sense to us this does not mean that something will stop to exist, it is clear that any kind of addiction is extremely undesirable and such behavior should have been purged out of humans long time ago, but it still exist, and it will keep existing as if anything the current conditions of the world favor it, as social isolation is getting worse and now people enjoy more free time than ever and they need a set of activities to fill it.
