The other day someone was talking about how he hates gambling as it nearly ruined his life, and within my mind I was like, no it was not gambling that nearly ruined you it was actually you that tried to ruin your life and that's because you refused to gamble responsibly and discipline yourself by not been capable of differentiating money meant for gambling from money meant for other projects in your life.

Why do people blame gamble for their own act of irresponsibility. No one is talking about their own part in their story of bad experience's with gambling, all we get to hear is gambling is bad and a useless activity. Why?

It is in human nature to deny responsibilities for this that do not turn out fine and bring accolades. If you want to confirm this, watch children blame one another over things that went bad when they know there will be consequences. No one want to be responsible for bad things and everyone want to be seen as impeccable. Gamblers are not exempted from this because most careless gamblers will look for who to blame for their failure. Some blame the bookies, some their friends and family or just anyone they can.

The earlier one start taking responsibilities, the better because gambling is all about your decision. It is your money, so use it as you please and don't blame anyone for your mistake.

People wouldn't like to admit their faults when they fail to do the right thing because they don't want to see themselves as been weak. People that blames gambling for ruining their lives, might still go back and gamble because they haven't realized their mistake.

I will blame them for being greedy and think that they can make profit from gambling. Instead of them to blame their greedy nature, they are busy blaming the game because greed has eaten up their bones and they were blind see that they will get ruined

No matter how strong the invitation from friends or anyone who makes you gamble, as long as you don't listen to their invitations, you will never become an active gambler who finds it difficult to break the habit. There is no one to blame but yourself for financial decline due to gambling addiction, there are always choices that can make you better but you often ignore them due to uncontrollable desires. Every now and then you need to stand in front of the mirror and ask yourself, who is trying to destroy your life, gambling or your continued gambling actions.

It's always a normal reoccurrence for people to want to shift blames whenever they are faced with misfortune because they probably don't want to take responsibility for their involvement and their irresponsibility in some cases, some persons bring ruin upon their selves been irresponsible and yet try blaming not on something else.

Gambling itself is never and has never been a bad thing but people has made it look like it is meanwhile it has always been their attitude towards gambling they have cost them more problems most often, gambling was actually made for the sake of fun and entertainment but ever since most persons began to see it like a venture where they can make time of money because they happen to have seen someone who succeeded at such, it becomes a problem for them because they become greedy and invest much more than they should have which later leads to their ruin and they blame it on gambling meanwhile some other person's are gambling responsibly and making good out of same gambling that caused them ruin.

I used to think like this, and blamed the casinos for why they held a lot of games that made me interested and spent a lot of money in the casino and made me addicted. But after a long time, I realized that everything that happened to my life was because of what I did, I see this from any aspect, including why I became a fool, why I did not develop like other people in life, because in fact I did not realize what I was doing and just followed my desires without any good control, yes especially in gambling, if we have good self-control, we will definitely gamble responsibly, if we don't want to overdo it in gambling then we need the boundaries that we create for ourselves. Only a fool blames outsiders if something goes wrong with him, when he himself did it in the first place.

We hear that from people who like to complain a lot, and they tend to complain about everything and blame everyone, I guess that is easier than to take responsibility. And we hear from them how gambling is a bad and useless activity, but they just took it too far and they got into problems because they couldn't control themselves and how they spend money on gambling, as you said.

You will never hear something like that from a responsible person. Responsible gamblers spend just what they can afford to lose, and in that way they never get into problems because of the gambling.

Sometimes, gamblers tend to point fingers at things like gambling when their life hits a rough patch. But it's not just about the dice or cards, it's about personal choices. Like, if you can't draw a line between money meant for a game and money meant for, say, bills, it's not the gamble's fault. It’s more about not being in control. People should own up to their part in the mess and not just tag gambling as the bad guy. It's all about responsibility and learning to keep things in check.

Personal decision is what matters when it comes gambling , and when people lacks discipline they put the blame on gamble as if gamble forced them to play beyond their limits. The problem people do have with gamble is that they abuse it by playing beyond their limits which makes them to be addict gambling. It is important for people to learn how to be discipline when playing gambling, when their is no discipline it makes people to take wrong decisions that can be dangerous.

Lack of discipline has made people to risk much amount of money and it has become tradition for people to always invest in bitcoin because they lack the discipline to control their urge.

Someone who is faced with the desire to get rich quickly or make a lot of money in gambling or other places such as investments will do things that are unreasonable. They will do it blindly. Without strategy and reckless. This loss of control over oneself drives irrational actions that have bad consequences for oneself and even one's family. As OP said, it was purely his fault, not gambling or anything like that.

Truly the OP made comment was fact I am also a gambler but I have a total self control and gamble responsibly, I never had a mindset of becoming rich through gambling because that is absolutely impossible by own perspective, I only gamble with small amount of money that I can afford to lose to avoid ruining my life and going bankrupt due to addiction therefore I agreed that any gambler that ruin their life and got bankrupted is their own doing and have to accept their mistakes and not blame someone else, even gambling with a strategy doesn't warrant doing so without taking caution and gambling recklessly, of course the consequences is very bad.

At the end of the day, people will always look for something or someone to blame for their mistakes. They lack the necessary accountability as a consequence for the wrong actions and decision making they have done. They will try to pin it to someone in order to rationalize their wrong behaviour because that is the easier thing to do than to admit that they are wrong.

Unfortunately, even outside the gambling world, this happens more frequently than you think. People will always try to find ways to blame others for their mistakes, which is very disheartening and unfortunate to witness.

I just really hope that people would acknowledge their wrongdoings since this is the step in order to address the issue on hand. If they truly want to change their gambling addiction and habits, the first step always starts by acknowledging their wrong and moving forward on it.

People are blaming gambling for their own act of irresposibility because they are being swallowed by their emotions. It is like blaming other people for the mistake you just did and it is unhealthy as a gambler. That kind of people don't really understand the true meaning of gambling. Maybe they are just so disperate for being unlucky. Or they are just too serious chasing loses instead of having fun of it.

I read one post in this forum sometime last year and the poster was lamenting that he calculated all he had spent on gambling for a year and he discovered that the money he lost could have started a good business for him. I was surprised that some people have lost opportunities that would have made them financially stable because of gambling. We must have a gambling plan because betting is not a source of income or an investment. Having more streams of income will even make gambling more entertaining because you will not depend on it as a source of revenue. This is why we should invest more in businesses, education or skills instead of on gambling.

Humans naturally don't like taking responsibility because it is easy to blame people or an activity for failures. However, I see people that don't take responsibility as immature. Nobody is forced to gamble which is why gambling is restricted to a certain age that is deemed mature enough to make independent decisions.

Truly said. Things like alcohol and gambling were present even before the concept of money or gods. And they have been an integral part of human society.
It's upto the individual if they enjoy the gambling responsibly or they let gambling ruin their life. There are daily thousand of things that could ruin your life if you used different than how they ought to be. It is a life lesson everyone should pass. You can't be a mature person unless you have relative control of your mind and it's you, not others that are in primary control.

They should not blame gambling if they experience defeat because they cannot gamble responsibly. It was their own fault, and there is no need to blame it on gambling. If they could use gambling well, they would not experience ruin after they finished gambling. And no one will complain about having lost more money from gambling. They should be able to prevent experiencing big losses from gambling, but it is because of the greed that ultimately drives them to gamble longer, which results in them losing more money.

Playing gambling responsibly will give them the opportunity to avoid big mistakes that could ruin their lives. They will use gambling well and not lose much money or even experience ruin in their lives.

Gambling wasn't been a way to make money, so it's really wrong for someone to make money through gambling. It's really situational to earn some money through gambling, one of the example is when the casino offer good promotion, so you can't always make money from it because good promotion happen only for once or few times.

I accept, if gambling ruined your life it's not gambling fault, it's your own fault, there are things you don't want to take huge risks on, and gambling is one of them, many people turned from grace to grass because they are introduced to gambling, you shouldn't always say yes to everything, just because people are making money from something doesn't mean it's meant for you too.

How many of you have noticed that following what people do don't always work out well in the end? Or is it just me? If I tried copying anyone I always fail miserably, things that always work well for me are always something I think about myself, and its always something people will see and will say it will never work out for me.

You are the master of your destiny, and I believe it can be change with your own decision, remember, religion hates gambling for some vital reasons, and that's because gambling easily destroys humans, meaning that even God knew how weak the mind of humans can be.

Gambling tempts an individual to spend money in exchange for the promise of doubling it and we are just human to get tempted, people have a lot of pride to blame themselves I have seen gamblers out of reason and do not care about people around them telling him that he is gambling too much.
This is the characteristic of compulsive gamblers, they do not listen, they blame gambling they blame everyone except themselves, I have encountered these kinds of people and I don't want to argue with these people they are annoying to argue.

Only problem gamblers blame conditions other than themselves, and that's normal because when they believe that, they feel calmer. I used to do the same thing as other problem gamblers, until I finally realized for myself that the fault was actually mine.

BTW, talking about gambling, I was wondering if you're a gambler too? Because ideally you will have nothing to gain in this discussion if you're not an individual who's on the gambling side directly.

That is being human, we blame everything except the thing that causes us misery, compulsive gamblers can blame everything and think it's ok, I've experienced getting blamed for calling a friend on the phone in the middle of his gambling section because he thought he could have won if I did not make a call.

So many gamblers justify casinos as a place to make money even though there is a lot of proof that it's not, for gamblers, gambling is their cash cow their medicine, and their entertainment, I even read that some people sacrifice their relationships for gambling, gambling has a hold on compulsive gamblers so you know that if a person favors gambling more, he is a compulsive gambler.

Most people lose whenever their losses is getting the best of them. To be honest is not actually easy to gamble responsibly you should understand if you are gambling there's some point you reach in gambling you lose it all such of negative emotions will start showing infect especially when the losses you made that time is too much. The truth is that don't blame anyone it takes time to be a responsible gambler and I will keep saying always gamble with cash you can risk.💯
