A Shanghai man was sentenced to prison for kidnapping his own granddaughter so he could maintain his gambling addiction with the ransom money.
Gambling addiction is tougher than expected. That's an ugly incident and this have been on the trends in gambling. In the first place, the Shanghai man mean no harm but only interested in accumulating huge money to continue in gambling, I know it's difficult to comply with the current situation but just look at it from another direction, the Shanghai man would have ask countless time but it turns out they've failed to give him money.

If you don't have good self-control, it will be quite easy for someone to become addicted to gambling, but it is true that it will be quite difficult for someone to recover and become aware of the bad behavior they have committed and the addiction they have experienced. Gambling addiction is very dangerous, because the negative effects it causes will not only harm oneself, but will also have an impact on the people around them. Therefore, when we find that one of our family members or people close to us is addicted to gambling, then hurry up and try to make them aware of their bad behavior and give them the right treatment to help them get out of this difficult problem. Before everything becomes quite complicated and has a negative impact.

As for the person you mentioned, this is really crazy, because as a result of his gambling addiction, he lost his mind, but thank God if this very man has been arrested by the police and imprisoned, hopefully he can come to his senses and become a better person.

When was the last time in your life when you saw gambling addicted person? Or have anyone of you ever seen such people? I see a lot of people talk about addicted people, but all they know about them is from reading articles or someone has told them. I have also read about ludomania, but in person never ever seen addicted people. Or maybe from first look it is impossible to tell if person is addicted. I have only see drunk people near offline casinos. But I doubt that they were addicted gamblers.

you have to be intimate to the person to know for sure if they're addicted and if the thing is a problem in their life or not
not so simple at first glance
I talked with people who were addicted online but never met someone in person, at least not to gambling
met addicted people to other things which are more commons and more acessible.
That is an excellent point; it might be tough to tell if someone is suffering from a gambling addiction especially if you don't know them well. However, there are several warning indicators to look out for, such as abrupt behavioural changes, unexplained financial difficulties, or becoming more secretive or evasive. If you feel that someone you know is battling with a gambling addiction, approach them with compassion and offer help.
The people that keeps complaining of becoming addicted to gambling need to check themselves and see if they are doing the right thing that would guarantee them to make money rather then becoming addicted to gambling. Gambling can be a good way to make free money so with that one need to be very careful on the kind of decisions we are making for us to keep seeing results that would benefit us as gamblers. To keep getting good results as gamblers, it is mandatory for one to keep upgrading and updating strategy that would last longer with more subtle way to bet without going extra miles to seek for funds to play games.

the people who keep complaining about anything should check themselves
lol
complaining leads us to no other place than misery and bad vibes.
and if you're here for so long you know that vibes matter.

to have good results as a gambler you probably need accoountability, knowing when to stop and emotional awareness.

Gambling can be pretty addictive and approaching gambling with the wrong technique will be putting yourself in a compromising state or increasing your vulnerability. I think what mostly causes these behaviours in gambling is when people have wrong perspective about gambling. if people could only view gambling as an activity that's meant to provide fun to the gambler, then more people could be saved from the harms that gambling causes. Just imagine the unnecessary pressure and mental stress the man must have put his family through, it's true that he meant no harm but only wanted money to continue gambling or maybe to pay up debts he incurred as a result the gambling.

Mental pressures while the excitement and enjoyment combines, I guess same with what you mentioned it's addictive as there are many mixed emotions that can triggered addictions, if you mishandled those emotions it can leads you to force yourself to keep going back, there are many gamblers who push themselves into this kind of activities and failed to control their participation, leading them to create un-neccessarry reactions to put themselves into trouble.

The fruit that you'll be harvesting is something that you will regret for the rest of your life, gamblers who became addicted most of the time needed help with both professionals and their love ones as they can't carry the loads and made them to do things that unexpected or unusual from their usual bahaviors.

That is the height of it. I can't emagine how someone would go this far to the extent of kidnaping his own grand daughter all because he want his son in-law to pay a ransom of $72k to pay off his gambling loan. That is the reason why we keep on talking about gambling addiction and how it affects us in somany ways. Come to think of it how can a man of 65 years will still be playing gamble at his age? Like I always said gambling could be fun and can change someone's financial status but not what we can take to another dimension.

This is one kind of extreme level of gambling addiction. I  will say every addiction on every sector bear some bad effect on peoples we have seen many times that for funding their gambling they are going connected with various crime. As we see one op mentioned. I have heared many year ago in Japanese on a Chinese Couple sold their children to funding thier gambling that was an world hot topic of that time. I think addiction has no age it's more of a psychopath so this 65 year old man is now addicted to gambling.

When I head this story, I wasn't surprised at all, I asked myself, if someone can go as far as taking his own life as a result of gambling addiction then is there a length people cannot go?  I've seen even worst cases. This is why people should be very mindful of gambling, especially when you know that you have a very poor self control, because sometimes it's not even about the effects and pains it brings to the victim, it's sometimes mostly about the effect on the people closest to the victim. Just imagine the emotional tension and the pressure he must've put the family through because of this single act which he would've avoided if only he had a little bit more of self-control.
As long as it is gambling addiction, nothing is surprising because a gambling addict is like drug addict that can go any length to satisfy that urge. The stories of gambling addicts are just too numerous and most of them are never shared. There was a time that robbery increased in my neighborhood. Eventually some of the arm robbers were caught and to our greatest surprised, almost all of them were people who spend most of their time in the gambling shops. This shows that the money they steal still goes back into gambling.

I've seen the best and worst of gambling. Its NOT about luck, its about having the right mindset. Trying to win back losses? Thats a loser's game. Gambling is for entertainment, plain and simple. Just like building a business, you need a plan.

The house always win. But, theres something powerful about accepting that. Real winners know their limits. They have a budget and they walk away when the time is right. They're in it for the adrenaline, the social aspect - not to get rich.

Changing your approach takes guts, and I respect that. Think strategically, not desperately. Know that the odds are often stacked, but there's still room for calculated fun. This isnt about getting a handout, its about managing your entertainment wisely. Lets make gambling responsible again –  leisure, not a lifeline.
Yes, maybe that's not about luck, but we can't deny it because we really needs luck to win in gambling. Many people trying to win in gambling, even when they lose, they will wants to recovers their lose by playing gambling for more. When they lose, they don't thinks that's the time for them to stops the games instead will becomes angry and gets higher their emotions and makes them wants to recover their money.

That's wrong because they will not have a bigger chance to gets their money back instead can losing their money, even more money. We must change our approach in gambling to prevents the big lose and trying to apply limitations. If we already limits our money and time, we will not lose much money because we knows how to avoids that lose not to becomes bigger.

They can do it. I assure you that. Gambling addiction is worse than drug addicts and alcoholics. Why? Simply because gambling is more expensive than those bad habits. They continually play and there's no stopping it especially now that gambling is more accessible thanks to online gambling sites.
It's open 24/7 and they can always bet as they please so doing those kinds of things might be possible if they run out of money.
Before, I didn't really believe it could happen but when I heard about my brother-in-law doing crazy things because of his gambling addiction, that's when I realized that it could really happen.
Gambling addicts can decide crazy things without even thinking about what will happen to them next as long as they can satisfy their bad habits.

That is an excellent point; it might be tough to tell if someone is suffering from a gambling addiction especially if you don't know them well. However, there are several warning indicators to look out for, such as abrupt behavioural changes, unexplained financial difficulties, or becoming more secretive or evasive. If you feel that someone you know is battling with a gambling addiction, approach them with compassion and offer help.
The people that keeps complaining of becoming addicted to gambling need to check themselves and see if they are doing the right thing that would guarantee them to make money rather then becoming addicted to gambling. Gambling can be a good way to make free money so with that one need to be very careful on the kind of decisions we are making for us to keep seeing results that would benefit us as gamblers. To keep getting good results as gamblers, it is mandatory for one to keep upgrading and updating strategy that would last longer with more subtle way to bet without going extra miles to seek for funds to play games.

One thing "gambling is not a place to earn", I understand that you can win in any type of gambling such as sports betting for example where your skills and experience can be used as a pretty good tool to generate wins, but the logic is that if gambling can be made a place that definitely earns then many people are rich and there will be no more people who lose? of course, this means that gambling is nothing more than a "possibility" where things will not always be able to go according to what you want.

All wins in gambling are always "coincidental", meaning that you will only win occasionally because the possibility of losing will always lurk you in every session, so please don't build an unreasonable perspective or point of view on gambling, don't conclude that gambling is like having a certainty to produce, Do not focus too much on winning because what is certain is that it will only make you feel more disappointed when it turns out that you lose and usually people who come with goals and hopes for victory are usually less likely for them to be able to accept the fact of defeat which in the end emotions dominate and some out of control actions without rational consideration will occur and lead them to a much worse situation.

I won't say gamblers shouldn't focus on winning, if winnings and gain wasn't present all this members preaching about fun won't have gamble. The truth about the system is, its not programmed to favour you which is one of the rarest truth, in as much as you can win huge so also you can lose much. Here then comes the safety method which is knowing and operating based on your risk tolerance nothing more or less, knowing how much you're are willing and ready to lose that won't affect you, this will shift your mind from expectations and let you operate based on your decisions and predictions.
The truth comes when we accept it that the outcome in gambling is uncertain and doesn't need any skill set to alter that.

Why we have many addicts and some already becoming addicted is as a result of the reward system in our brain once it triggers they careless about the risk and go far beyond normal, and often swim in unrealistic ocean of believe that makes them lose over and over again, win at times but can't detach themselves because of lack of discipline on there part. It would also interst you to know that this works similar also to Drug addicts. The side effect is emotional instability, financial issues which affects there relationship with family, friends and loved ones.
This can't be overstretched on how not to get addicted, it gears towards YOU not to expose yourself always to gambling too much or prioritize it in anyway over other areas of your life.

Addicted gamblers are seen across every neighborhood where gambling shops or casinos exist. They share almost similar stranded looks, when trying to seek for financial help. I've also watched players change from addiction to not gambling at all. Although, some gamblers whom I know bet on video games, and they're addicted to doing this, however, they sometimes tend to stop. In addition, most experiences were read online, because associating with addicts isn't something I'd pick as a hobby or thing I like doing. Unless the player reaches out for help on ways to stop being addicted, then I could be of help. Some addicts in our neighborhood, while growing up were so buried in addiction that their family had to disclose the problem to a wider range of listeners. Yet those moves never made any changes on the player, they still try as much as possible to continue player, regardless of what people think about them in the society.

I am not sure that every addicted gambler shows their addiction to the outside world.

In many cases it can just be something that is deep down. You basically need to watch their behavior, not how they look.
Therefore, in society we should pay attention to the behavior of certain types of people, sometimes some standards do not match, they reveal their addiction and let their behavior cause bad things.

Yeah, being observant of the people close to us, is crucial in helping us come up with the right conversations, questions, and examinations that would suit or help change their gambling habit. Lack of emotional intelligence in society is the problem humans have in dealing with psychological disputes such as gambling addiction. Sometimes when having a conversation with people who have harbored an addict, they tend to have a quarrel and misunderstanding with the addicted person. Hence, developing difficulty in having a smooth or successful discussion with the addict.

All they need is time to have a healthy conversation. About what they love to discuss, especially what they love. Putting the addict on a strange mood or getting agitated, shows the person is ignorant of emotional intelligence. Whatever sickness acquainted with the brain, shouldn't be rushed. No quick process or drug for setting up the brain right back into normal, when it gets scattered. It's the main reason players should be careful not to get addicted. Because their brain would have to take a longer time to set up as usual in the past. Therefore, displaying the past and present to the addict levels up the healing process.

Yes, it is the madness of a gambling addict that will destroy your life and that of your family. I also have a friend who works hard but unfortunately he spends his money just to gamble. He is not married so he has no responsibilities to his family. But he had debts and that was also used for gambling. His hard work is just for gambling. It's a shame because it means he has ruined his future. It's a shame when he spends his money on gambling instead of investing.

I think it might be the only way that person knows how to "invest".

There's really no way to be rich by getting a salary only. You need to invest in something, and over time, you get the benefit of the increased price. Or rather, the relative value of cash goes down against your assets.
People always want to make money quickly so they always think investment is a way to make money that takes a long time, that's why people prefer to gamble because for them there they can get money faster even though they also lose money quickly too, but without them ignore and realize that in the end they are addicted to gambling and get trapped in it, having a lot of debt and spending more than usual just to chase wins so they can recover all the money they have lost in gambling. obviously that was the wrong choice.

But we can't blame other people for their choices, everyone has a process for living their own lives because they have choices for their lives, if they prefer to live as gambling addicts of course they will not be cured because they will ignore anyone who gives them advice. to him, unless they prefer to be better, they will definitely leave gambling and then learn to invest, because not everyone knows how to invest, they always think it's just a waste of time, even though we know investing also has risks, just like gambling, but There are still more benefits to investing than gambling.

Poor people usually gamble to try their luck and make money in gambling so their goal from the start of gambling is to win and get money so it will be different from most rich people who gamble on average, they just want fun, I saw my friend gambling and he never had a problem with losing, he even spent hundreds of dollars gambling, for him it was the same as spending money playing golf with his business friends, so according to him, the money he lost gambling, he would consider it spent playing golf, not gambling. , after all, he said, it depends on how a person's mindset understands the pleasure of gambling

Poor people usually lack proper education and that's why they don't realize that counting on winning big money from gambling is a bad idea. And that's a tragedy actually. I think it's unethical to locate slot machines in poor regions, and yet we know that many gambling operators are doing that. I hope in the future this problem will be solved somehow, but for now we have to deal with it.


I'm not quite sure why you would want poor neighborhoods to not have casinos. In my opinion a rich person can afford a lot more entertainment than a poor person. Keeping a poor person from gambling is not a very fair solution even if you think that his level of education and financial literacy does not allow him to manage his money properly. In addition, a rich gambler to get emotions must make a bet of $100, and a poor gambler is enough to make a bet of $1 and he will experience similar emotions.

This is pure wickedness how can you fake your own daughter kidnapping. And I don't this was done to satisfied his gambling addiction but I think he was on drugs and was planning to satisfied his huge with the money. Now if his family people contribute the requested ransom money, he would collect it and spend it again. That man is insane. He is not normal and a normal person even if he is a gambler would not do such a thing. Though he would gamble some percentage of the money but not all.
Though I have seen and heard news that people arranged with outsiders to kidnap their own blood. Either wife, girlfriend, children and others. But those people are not with their normal senses.

I think it is obvious whatever happened through that man's head was not normal and he was not in control on whatever he was doing or trying to do. Though, to me it is interesting how you associate this behavior with drugs or other illegal substances.
I do not have any statistics on hand, but one does not need to be a genius on social sciences or psychologist to know how gambling can serve as a quick way for any normal person to get addicted to only to gambling, some gamblers in the desperation and depression could try to use the little they have left to try to feel better through the comsumption of alcohol and from there (when alcohol is not enough anymore) they move onto soft drugs and the hard drugs. When money runs out, it is when the robbery and the petty crime commences.

It could be the sad case of this person, but we will never be sure. After all, on internet we can find people who do equally dangerous and illegal stuff for a fraction of motives, which this man could have had, we can only wish he will someday be his former self. Before embracing addiction.

Yes and I think there is a significant difference in the impact of losses experienced by gamblers who come with the aim of earning with gamblers who come with the aim of having entertainment only, one of the reasons is that we can see in terms of differences in seriousness in terms of treating gambling activities, Simply put, those who come with the intention of winning are sure to do everything or always overdo it in gambling such as gambling more often or increasing the amount of budget because they want to get a big win, which is actually gambling is too sensitive to be treated like that, which means that it does not produce but they will only experience a large number of defeats due to too much while on the other hand gambling is full of uncertainty. And for those who come with the intention and purpose of having fun, we can guess that they will not be too serious in treating their gambling, simply put they come only to enjoy the game and not to pursue the victory so that the number of their defeats will not be too large.

Another difference is in terms of expectations where it is clear that gamblers who come with the intention of making sure they will put their hopes on winning and this is what encourages them to do various ways that lead to excessive actions, as you said that gambling is full of uncertainty which is the reason why we must treat gambling with caution without putting any expectations and seriousness, this is what you should pay attention to if you want to survive in the long run.
The impact of losses will be difference for every gambler but they have one same reason to continue their gambling activity to recover their lose. They will not see that playing gambling is just one activity that they can do in their free time but they will playing gambling more often than usual because they still wants to gets their lost money. Their reason for playing gambling already changed if they comes back to the casino to gets their money back because that will not easy to gets it instead they will lose more money. They will not see gambling is for have fun but for makes money because they see some gamblers can win from some gambling games and that makes them still wants to try it. Yes, they will playing gambling more often and increase their bet amount because they thinks that will gives them more chances to win. But they must thinks clear before they decided like that because gambling is not a place to make money instead to just have fun.

People who comes to casino for playing gambling in their free time will not thinks to pursue the win because they knows that will difficult. They will just trying to enjoy their free time for playing gambling and stops when they thinks their time is over. They will not thinks to still staying at the casino because that can makes them tempting to playing the other gambling games. They knows that they must becomes responsible gamblers to avoids lose much money because that can caused them playing gambling excessively.
I've seen the best and worst of gambling. Its NOT about luck, its about having the right mindset. Trying to win back losses? Thats a loser's game. Gambling is for entertainment, plain and simple. Just like building a business, you need a plan.

The house always win. But, theres something powerful about accepting that. Real winners know their limits. They have a budget and they walk away when the time is right. They're in it for the adrenaline, the social aspect - not to get rich.

Changing your approach takes guts, and I respect that. Think strategically, not desperately. Know that the odds are often stacked, but there's still room for calculated fun. This isnt about getting a handout, its about managing your entertainment wisely. Lets make gambling responsible again –  leisure, not a lifeline.
