A lot of people have been clamoring about how gambling has ruined their life but same gambling has set some people up for life, just like every other form of investment there must always be a profit or a loss. And life is so balanced that what works for Mr A might not be the same that works for Mr B. Likewise in gambling, while some are crying about their loss they are some who are smiling and celebrating their win.
Gambling has been seen as a very dangerous thing base on some people's point of view here in the forum whereas in reality it has given some people the capital to start what ever business they want to do. My point in this post is that we shouldn’t just paint gambling all black because some people have fail to stick to the discipline of gambling.
I believe that before one make a decision in life, they should've already weighed the consequences of making the right or wrong choice, then put their fate on luck coupled with their little knowledge concerning what they're about to decide on, so why complain and play the blame game when things go wrong? "Share your thought on how gambling has come through for you if you got any".

Lack of discipline, bad upbringing, different cultures.... There are many reasons but it all boils down to one thing:

Well, it is all plain human nature, isn't it? We all seem to think that we are special, different and unique. But the truth is, that we react the very same way as every other human being. That is not a bad thing, either. The predictability of human nature just makes it easier to understand how gambling can make people irrational/angry. But in the end, it all has to do with how you view the win or loss from your own perspective. And if you do not like the way that you (or someone else) acts, then there is always a way of dealing with it.

There is no doubt that gambling has helped some people step up on the level of financial independence but that is a very small average of people and I believe those who have benefited that way are not addict gamblers, they are reasonable gamblers who got lucky and use betting profit to better their lives. However, the reason that majority of the response try to throw some guide on gambling is because what what they see, withness and even part of the majority that has been losing in gambling. It is normal if you are losing to let others understand that it is not a tea party to make it from gambling because there are gamblers who are expecting to make it through gambling and they need to hear the reality from participants who have also felt that way but unsuccessful.

When it comes to the "blame game" it's always easier to blame everything and anything else than accepting the blame on yourself. But that game ends once we grow up and take responsibility for our actions.

Gambling has been seen as a very dangerous thing...

And gambling can be a very dangerous thing for people who don't understand how easily they can lose everything they have. I mean, it's again about responsible gambling, but we know that some people are not responsible and for those people, gambling can be a very dangerous thing. As I said many times, it's all fun & games as long as we gamble with money we can afford to lose, but when people start playing with amounts they can't afford to lose the problems will start. The more they lose bigger the problems will be. In the end, they can blame anyone but the blame will be on them.

So the point of the story should be simple, play with the money you can afford to lose. Only like that you can relax and have fun while playing some of your favorite games.

It might be funny, but this topic seems like a continuation of another topic I earlier came across today, where the OP detailed on the title "If you don't take a risk, you will not win." It totally confirms that gambling is full of risk to lose money, so who dares to make unnecessary blame on gambling because they lose their bet? Do they not know that gambling is a game of luck where winning is uncertain?

By the way, I want to point out that gambling is never an investment, so it should not be treated as one, or even compared to being an investment.

Lastly, people who hate gambling will paint it black because, maybe their costume or religion forbids it. So, they will definitely paint it black and have a very point to convince others why gambling is not good. Yeah, people can paint it black and you will not do anything. Grin

Gambling, to most, is a hobby. Hobbies by nature, should be enjoyable, they should be fun. The moment it stops being fun is when it becomes a problem and you probably need some time out.

The only person whose fault it is, if you lose enough money that it becomes a problem, is you.

With most addictions, the addict needs to take responsibility for their actions if they want to change. There is no point blaming anybody but yourself. All reputable casinos and sportsbooks do all they can to promote responsible gambling, you can set yourself limits. Ultimately, the punter is in control of their gambling habits.

Instead of gamblers putting the blame on their selves they will go ahead giving it to the game they play, I hope they realized that the game doesn't play itself, we choose to play them and how to go about it, this has been a common practice that you will discover from many gamblers always finding reason to why they are losing while gambling, what is needed is to have fun and enjoy more about gambling.

I think this isn't so much a trait shared by gamblers as much as it is a trait shared by losers. You seem the same things with investments. People make a bad decision and then look for everyone else to blame but themselves. I think some people just can't accept that things didn't turn out how they thought and in hindsight their decision was a bad one. They'd rather believe they did everything right and everyone else did everything. Not saying that's never the case, but for some individuals it seems they think that is always the case.

First of all, gambling has nothing to do with investments. Gambling is a game, an expensive hobby, and like with many other hobbies, you have to keep your sanity and enjoy it in moderation. It is not all black, but not all white either.

If you want money to start your own business, you should work hard for it instead of only relying on luck. Maybe this way you learn something valuable in the meantime, and make some extra money to gamble without the pressure of having to win at all cost in order to get the fulfilling life you and your family deserve.

what works for Mr A might not be the same that works for Mr B.

This is where people do usually mess up on the time that they would really be trying out to mimic someone specially if they have been able to win up something big and on the time that mindset and emotion has been fixed on this way then it would really be creating out that kind of imaginary approach towards gambling on which they would really be trying it out to make it happen on the same way for themselves and this is why people do really end up on having that miserable lives because of those wrong assumptions on which they do really believe that they could really be able to get out safe.
If you are lucky then you might be able to achieve those things but if not then you would really be ending up on regretting.

Regrets are always at the end, this is why it would really be that important that you should really know on when to get in and when to get out on certain conditions
on which it would really be just that a normal thing.

In this case, gambling is “Schrödenger’s cat” - it is both bad and good at the same time. Gambling is, first and foremost, a game in which you enjoy the process. Some people make them their hobby, others their work (a means of earning money). But ludomania is already a very specific disease, a deviation. Condemnation of gambling and “imaginary” help for game addicts is the lot of hypocrites.
