Celebrities are also very limited in promoting their image in the gambling industry when the media can broadcast it widely and the press can think that this is inappropriate behavior, celebrities' income comes from the audience, so they will never do actions that tarnish their image, most likely, gambling websites are taking pictures of celebrities without their permission. Advertising is just exploiting the psychology of viewers, gambling addiction is the end result, so it is necessary to consider the root of the problem of gambling addiction and eliminate it.
However, some celebrities deliberately promote gambling and do not think it is extraordinary. Moreover, advertising income from promoting gambling can provide a lot of money. People only need to pay attention to themselves without paying attention to who is promoting gambling advertisements. After all, it's just advertising and doesn't really encourage them to gamble, especially if people think gambling advertisements are like other advertisements. So it will not cause problems for the public who see the advertisements or celebrities who promote gambling advertisements.

At the end the problem of gambling is a personal thing, it is almost impossible to help someone that wants to continue gambling.
They will continue gambling until they lose all their money, and sometimes people will even loan money to try to recover their losses, only to lose it all all over again...
It's a dangerous addiction that can destroy many lives
Gambling advertising is very dangerous. The fact is that by repeating the same thing over and over again, she makes gambling for someone who watches this advertisement a Normal and Common occurrence. Just a correct thing and not forbidden for anyone. That is, we see celebrities in gambling ads, this ad is shown in prime time on federal channels - and then anyone will think, "Hey, there's nothing wrong with that. You can go in, place a bet on one time." And it is from this moment that the first step towards casinos and other gambling varieties begins. This is exactly what casino promoters are trying to achieve - so that anyone who has watched the advertisement thinks that gambling does not cause any harm.
Yes, that's right, especially if the person promoting gambling is a well-known public figure (artist), of course it will be very easy for the public to imitate.

Seeing celebrities in gambling ads is definitely because they have been paid to do the ads and they aswell have to return value for the money paid to them so it's what they are doing just like everyother person when employed they make sure to do their job for which they are been paid, this does not make the ad dangerous or harmful.When you pay close attention to these ads they usually leave a piece of advice at the end and I think not heeding to that advice is what causes the problem for most persons, firstly they advised about the age limit that should engage and secondly they advice about gambling responsibly which most persons don't and end up blaming it on the gambling platforms for bringing gambling to them.
Gambling in it entirety is not really bad what is said to be bad is your habit and attitude towards gambling, gambling can actually be fun filled is you want it to but when you allow greed set in your mind and you gamble irresponsibly because you want to get rich quick you gradually tend towards addiction and now blame it on gambling as been bad meanwhile you were initially the problem.
do you think gambling companies shouldn't exist, their use should be more strict or people should have their freedom to use it if they want but we should provide more educational resources for people to learn and protect themselves so they don't fall victims of their own lack of control?
interesting to think about it.
There are companies that mostly creates adverts for gambling, they generates significant profits from these gambling ads from online posts. Ofcourse we can't bring them down rather create awareness among people about the dangerous activities pulled by these gambling relatable ads. There's one thing we should know, we can't permanently stop gambling because it's general and have spread to developed and developing countries across the globe. We can only educates young minds on the dangers of gambling and provide preventive measures that would reduced the activity to its minimum ratio.interesting to think about it.

I agree with your opinion, that a gambler will not become an addict if he is aware of all the risks when playing, if he plays too much, puts money in the hope of winning, of course that is impossible, on the contrary he will lose. all the money will be lost. And that will cause problems in his family and the problem in him is that he will regret having done that without thinking about other people.
In the case of gambling addicts they are harmful not only to the family but also to the society. At the beginning greed works in them to get more and when the rush reaches the point of desperation when everything is lost, taking a break from gambling will seem like the last thing you want, but it is necessary. Leaving gamblers after losing their large amount of money will give you the space and time to evaluate why it happened and how to prevent it from happening again. But a responsible gambler does not get greedy after earning a profit, they know the right rules of gambling so they are less likely to suffer.
Gambling addiction can really ruin a life and relationship. It can destroy you in every way possible and it can cause negative effect to the people close to you such as your family and to your friends. Addiction can bring trouble to you in terms of financial and even be a burden to your close ones because they might be the collateral damage for your irresponsibility. Greediness can bury you to pile of debts and loans. It will just bring you so much liabilities that might be too heavy to handle which could cost you a lot more later on. Self-reflection is much needed so that you won't be dependent to gambling.
Well here is something that we must highlight, which is when an addicted person can do, achieve, and they can have as a basis not to become addicted, but of course when we make a Sketch and we see that there are cases of addicted players, those who are alone are a case very far from how things may be with his family, an addict when things are just starting can look very Good even though he has been or had a very bad game and has lost a large amount of his money, still a peona He can maintain well the stauts cup of what his life is, but if the addicted person has more to be able to play his games and spends more and more, he falls into a state where he begins to lend money, and if he loses it, then he lends the money. double, the first to pay the lent, the second to be able to play, and so on until it becomes a big problem where he cannot solve it, then in this order of ideas, as a person who has seen this type of cases, it is very bad how it Ends.
I recently had a friend who had that way of life , and he had no choice but to sell his house, go to another country and had to leave the wife he had, fortunately he had no children , but he operated in every place he went. They knew him because he was only Going to trust and everywhere he left things to pay and that was how he Supported himself , as he had many tools and things, because he sold them to half resolve his situation or the most difficult debts, at least the debts He went to the supermarket or things like that because of his friendship and because they Knew it , they trusted him, but that lifestyle is very ugly, and all because he was betting in casinos, and when he discovered online casinos, he became much crazier and he had no control, at that moment he left his wife to endure hunger, and since he has a son in Spain , the son Sent him money and instead of paying , what he did was Spend it, not so Much in a casino but on Things Unnecessary, then sometimes that causes them a Mental imbalance in their Life.

I think gambling companies are difficult to close if they have become a necessity for someone's life, but as you said there should be limits or socialization for players in the future so that users can limit their games so they don't become addicts.
It depends on the type of gambling, if it's a type of gambling that has a large company, it might be difficult to close because they pay very high taxes, of course it won't be easy, but if it's a small type of gambling, I think it can be closed with the help of many people of course.
There is a lot of online gambling now and it is very disturbing and very easy to access If we are not careful, we can lose control and become addicted. Currently, many people are addicted to gambling and lose a lot to the point of taking out online loans just to carry out gambling activities to catch up on their losses of course this will have a bad impact because if we continue to chase losses continue to lose and the profits we get will be less than the losses we experience

If you are going to get involved in gambling, of course you have to think about limits in playing and financial limits, with the aim of minimizing the risks that we will experience.
I think gambling companies are difficult to close if they have become a necessity for someone's life, but as you said there should be limits or socialization for players in the future so that users can limit their games so they don't become addicts.
Talking about limits, some gambling sites have an option to help you know how much you spend on gambling weakly, monthly etc and they also have options to help you restrict your self just should in case you think you are tending towards addiction, you can place restrictions on your account for a period of time after which you can come back or if you want you can permanently restrict your account.I want gambling sites to add to their sites an option that allows gamblers set daily limits and it should be such that it could not be further adjusted until a certain number of days probably 7-14 days or more have been exceeded then you can rest or adjust your daily limit, this wi definitely help gambler control their gambling habit so as not to turn addicts and blame it on the gambling sites.
They can aswell add maximum daily drawdown to help keep the gambler in check so once they exceed their draw down they can not place a bet for the day until after 24hrs, I know this may seem like it will reduce the income of the site but then on the long run it will actually bring people to them as people will be glad they are concerned and are helping them keep their gambling habit in check

That is some truly criminal act and I am sorry but I have known a lot of gambling addicts that have done several sort of things,like spent the money they had from work to buy things,like accountants and finance people who then were fired but I have never seen until now someone kidnapping his own granddaughter for keeping his burning desire alive,a lot of people do some nasty shit but this is out of my reach.
I have been a gambling addict until 2020-2021 myself but I have greatly recovered since then and I never look back.Even in my deepest form of addiction I never did such acts and no acts at all because I knew I was in the wrong.

In all honesty, such kind of circumstance is unusual and pretty bizarre. Think that you can kidnap your own grandaughter just because you have a gambling addiction; a person with a normal mentality is not capable of doing that. These are but a few consequences of addiction. It will undoubtedly have negative effects if it is not addressed.
So long as the addiction can be managed, don't let it ruin the family or have an impact on our own personalities. Start making changes gradually if they are possible so that they don't wind up getting worse.
There are gamblers who gamble with common sense they are not addicted to the gambling and therefore they are not trouble some for the families and friends.
It is only those gamblers who are addicted , become annoying for their families, use excessive money and even their mood and their way of life becomes extremely disturbed cause of the gambling addiction.
If all heavy gamblers were aware of the excessive activities they were doing, there would be no such thing as a gambling addict. there will be no future for a gambling addict if they continue to follow their greedy desires and have no intention of changing it, in my country online gambling addiction is a real concern for the government, there are many parties who are at a loss, apart from that the average gambling addict will be involved in bad loans, their families will continue to be victims.

interesting to think about it.
How many homeless forks are going to keep sleeping on the street due to the aftermath pf gambling addiction and its resultant effects on the victims who have become utterly vulnerable to the extent of not being, able to control their gambling emotions and acts that result in them losing out many things to the point of becoming a destitute in the street?
A lot of other worst situations are always at play in most gamblers' lives who are easily addicted, and out of control, some of them have slid into full-time depression and all manner of other ugly situations.
That's right, it's really sad if we see the condition of addicts like that. It has been proven a lot around us, but there are still many people who are not aware and many are addicted to gambling.A lot of other worst situations are always at play in most gamblers' lives who are easily addicted, and out of control, some of them have slid into full-time depression and all manner of other ugly situations.
Even though it is certain that someone who is out of control will definitely experience bad things in his life, he will never feel happy because the high emotion of winning will actually be a disaster for him in the future. Savings run out, the future is bad, experiencing new problems in the family and even depression caused by uncontrolled gambling, not having a good mindset in carrying out gambling, and it would be very unfortunate if this happened to ourselves.
I agree with your opinion, that a gambler will not become an addict if he is aware of all the risks when playing, if he plays too much, puts money in the hope of winning, of course that is impossible, on the contrary he will lose. all the money will be lost.

that is the extent to which some addicts can go to satisfy their desires. its possible that its not the first he will go that extreme to find money to gamble. lets now say he succeeded with the kidnapping, am pretty sure he will repeat it with another person and thats how he will become a kidnapper and also from there he will become more creative with bad things. thats why its always good to put limit to things.
Some of the gambler in the gambling was full filled their desire after the winning from the gambling.But to achieve this win,he need to do gambling very dedicatedly.Even he may force to loss some money because of the continuous game.If you had regular income from the salary,then you are eligible for the gambling.Some people use the gambling as their full time job,taking gambling as their full time job is not the recommended one.Some gamblers doing the kidnapping for the gambling money,to avoid such betting.The family member should give money to the gambler to avoid of illegal action.
Quite sad story if we consider something like this can happen to reputable and lovely people of our same family tree.
Yes, all good and bad things can happen to anyone. We must be able to maintain good relationships and communication with our family so that if we have a gambling addiction problem, they will notice our change in attitude and they will most likely help us get out of the gambling cycle.
Gambling is never wrong because after all it is a place to get fun, if the casino has made you stressed by losing a lot of money then just leave it, go to the casino if we are ready to lose money and it does not make us stressed
that is the extent to which some addicts can go to satisfy their desires. its possible that its not the first he will go that extreme to find money to gamble. lets now say he succeeded with the kidnapping, am pretty sure he will repeat it with another person and thats how he will become a kidnapper and also from there he will become more creative with bad things. thats why its always good to put limit to things.
It would be quite a leap to go from being a problem gambler to a recurrent kidnapper, if you ask me. Obviously, someone who take such a desperate decision have gone through other ways to get some money to fuel their addiction. He may have taken some money left around by his family and friends, or even scam someone, but when people realize that could not longer get any, his madness pushed him turn into a kidnapper.

I do not know if we should take the spirit to gamble as positive or negative. If something is done to an extent that we cannot think and keep on injecting money to recover the loss, then it is the fault of the gambler. How on earth a sensible person keep investing and playing from where is he getting constant loss?
This is where the addiction part comes in. If you are addicted to anything like gambling, you will never want to stop. It is also not only about the loss, even the addicted gambler will keep gambling even if he is winning a good amount. The motive in this case is to gather more money and become rich through gambling.
Here, the easy rule to follow is to never risk more than you can afford to lose. Its about having fun and accepting the result, not about running after losses or aiming for large wins. Addiction arises when we lose sight of this and start to perceive gambling as a means of achieving wealth or a way out of financial difficulties. Your observations are quite insightful as they serve as a helpful reminder to exercise caution and mindfulness when we gamble in order to avoid becoming an addiction.
