Topic: People who gamble are degenerates, change my mind. (Read 16243 times)
gambling is a game that has both its negative and positive effect.the positive effect include your gain per playing time,the fun of the moment, socialization, psychological development on taking risk and letting go at losses(accepting ones fate).the negative aspect is loser's emotional breakdown, it leads to violence, addiction could be dangerous. i only think it should be controlled especially among immatured people.
You can certainly play to have fun, but it all depends on the emotional state of a person, as well as on his character. There are such people that even when they play a simple card game, their excitement is so strong that they are capable of inappropriate actions if something goes wrong with them. And there is no interest, and even no cash bets, and this person is already becoming dangerous for his excitement.
You're missing something here. You can certainly have fun while gambling as long as you have the money to support that. It doesn't depend on the emotional state of that certain person, that depends on the person itself if he will be letting himself controlled by his emotions or not. I've been struggling to stop myself from gambling and I can tell you that it is so hard but the thing here is that it is not you vs. your addiction but there are a lot of people around you to help.
This kind of activity need to be stopped, because early days of addiction will ruin their life and make them miss the teenage days which is the most important days. Mexico is already suffering from different economic and political issues, now this will once again make the country not to progress good competing the neighboring countries.
So we need to prohibit younger people from staying away from gambling games and explaining to them that playing gambling will make their lives become dangerous. They would become addicted to gambling if they played for a long time and every day. Besides that, they will risk their money to lose in the games without any chance to recover the money.
If we can explain to them carefully, they will listen to us, and they will prevent themselves from entering gambling places even when they are connected to the internet. I am sure that younger people now are aware of the danger of gambling games and they can take care of themselves.

why pay when your only playing for fun ? there are many free to play gambling sites out therre ( literally free ) that you dont spend any fiat or cryptos but instead these kind of gambling are only using play money or in game chips that act as bets . its okay to become emotional when your only playing for fun . you can emote all you want but it only becomes bad if your playing on a real gambling that involves real cryptos/fiats because this will dramatically affect your gameplay

That is why before you decide to play gambling, you need to ask yourself, can you control yourself in the gambling games? Because not all gamblers can do that thing, and that makes them lose all of the money, which is the biggest mistake they make. Having fun while we are losing all money is not worth it because we need to control the fun emotion so we can get out from gambling places without stress because losing the money.
If you are a religious person, gambling ruins your present life and afterlife. If you are an atheist, gambling ruins your only life.
I totally agree with OP. People justify gambling for many reasons. But they know that themselves how they are fooling themselves.
The satisfaction of earning money by doing hard work is totally wiped off by this shitty stuff called gambling addiction.
I've left gambling for a while, intitially it was tempting but now I value every dollar I earn and gain by working online.

I have friends like this, people that will gamble on Mexican Womens Tennis if they can win (or most likely lose) some money on the game. It's a crushing addicition that we've normalized in our culture to make it seem like it's just apart of life. It shouldn't be, and children at a young age should be stopped from gambling until they know the horrible outcomes that gambling can cause. I support every effort by regulators to stem out the bad actors in the gambling field in order to stop children from being hooked on this.
Many gamblers can read what you have posted and some can change their mind but I know that there will be some of them who will not change their mind anymore. Its a disappointment for me that many are getting addicted into gambling but we can't blame them. Their perspective against gambling is different for some gamblers who are just gambling for fun. Maybe they will just change their mindset if they have no money anymore and feel regret in what they did. 
I see where you coming because you seem to know the horror of too much addiction to gambling, some countries already had rehabilitation for gamblers, not all of them are degenerates in mind, there are some people who really can't control being hooked on this, as much as there are people who are hooked into drugs and gaming.
We know the possibility already before we engage in gambling and mostly we never think that gambling is just for fun but of a serious game we play.
Addiction might catch us when we indulge in gambling and may control us in the end.
Knowing about these facts, it gives me some realizations and never been controlled by such addiction.

My life is luckily away from gambling because I'm afraid in the consequences that might came up to me when I became addicted to it. There's a lot of degenrates here who doesn't care about the causes and just thinking about their personal goals. When gambling, we always need control because controlling yourself to avoid addiction is like controlling your good future.
Well, if you gamble just for seeking profit and will make money then, that is not the right decisions. Controlling your self is just an easy way and we can gamble anything we want or something If we wanted to break our boredom and need something entertainment. Mindset is difficult to set if you are in addictive already.

Having control for yourself will prevent you become addicted to gambling, but many people have lost the control because they only follow their instinct to continue playing gambling.
I know my statement may sound pretty hostile on this part of the board, though I'm not talking about the person who will buy a superbowl box or makes a friendly bet with someone over one big game. I think the degenerates are the people sitting around gambling on every game they can possibly gamble on.

I'd like one of you to change my mind, or at least make me think different about gambling. Because as of right now, I have a pretty negative view on it.

In the eyes of many gambling is a kind of bad habit by the individuals, but people had their own
perception in it. To others here it is one of their amusement that can give happiness to their, were they don't care if they loss
just for fun in short. But if you play or not it is your choice dude, just do it what you can afford to loss.

If you really wanted to avoid being addicted and just want to entertain yourselves, you can do sports or other stuffs that will benefit you a good and healthy living right?
If I'll entertain myself, gambling is not included in the list.
This is very right. Entertainment comes in different forms. And if you want not to be stressed brought by gambling activities, better choose a different form of entertainment like sports and other hobbies. It is all about what you choose in life.

It seems to me that it is wrong to call a gambler degenerate. The fact is that very often the excitement is compared with drug addiction, when dependent people go to crimes in order to satisfy their desires. If a gambler is likened to the same low people, then this name is quite applicable. But only in such cases, and not in others.
Many people gamble just for fun and does occasionally so for them it does not apply according to me . Only those who just gamble for money and keep on playing till they earn or recover it might get addicted and this people could fall in this category .
As long as we can control ourselves while gambling, I think we will be fine. Never try to risk more than we can afford to lose is the best way to avoid addiction. Indeed, not all people who came into gambling is degenerate.
It can't, actually it's not impossible but it's very difficult to do. Many of the members here like that include me, when we lose we will continue to take risks to restore our losses. Well, just look at how many threads express their greed here and I'm sure there are still many of us who always take risks to recover losses.
Managing good money management may reduce addiction but will never eliminate our greed or emotional. It will always be there in every gamble that we do, it's just how we are able to control it to stay calm.
The greater argument is to call everyone normal who gambles because there is no alternative in life but to take risks. Who here has never crossed a road without a green light to tell them, you will not always have definite 100% scenario to proceed with. Its always best judgement that must be used and some unknown factor that be of some risk.
The correct appraisal is how well people react to risk, some ignore some increase it for the thrill of beating bad risk and so on. Some of that behaviour will lead to injury.
Only when you combine poor risk taking with poor money keeping do you get a serious situation that can lead to poor gambling I think.
