Topic: Two Carreer skill benefit of gambling - page 4. (Read 667 times)

You can only have the positive mindset on gambling when you gamble responsibly and have discipline but then I believe it is same of same when you are not discipline then you are likely not to be able to manage the bankroll. The skill of money management is such a big one but where you can not manage the little you have, then if you see big one you are likely to misuse it. Having a smart way to budget and management of it, is such abig advantage to proper reasonable gambling.

The only benefit of gambling I like it is when I hit near max wins or max wins from my playing sessions,socially I haven't seen any improvement,if at all dis-improvement as socially speaking when I have had a huge play session and I lost and go out with my family I tend to talk a lot less than I normally do.

The opposite though is great and helps me talk much better when I go out with my family or friends I tend to talk a lot more and people really laugh with my jokes,so I can say overall gambling is what my mood depend on most of the time and I behave based on what I have experienced in my last betting session.

It's also followed with time, effort and money because when you have many friends, you need to going out with them. If you're just only know their name and their face, they will not offer you something special since they see you almost like a stranger.

Don't forget there's no guarantee your friends will give you an opportunity because the priority for their family is higher than for friends.

I do not really see this applicable to online gambling.

Co-workers that are not gambling too can socialize together. Some peoole will have things in common and become friends with another person because of many things the person is doing which is similar to his. This may start because both of them are seeing themselves in a casino but online gambling may not be a good reason.

It can go beyond this because there are other things that make people socialize, especially because they are co-workers and if they have similar way of seeing things right and wrong.

If you will indeed think that this path will give you income, then, you will learn quick that you are wrong at this thinking.
Being responsible is I believe, gambling can teach you. Because if not, you will find out soon that you will be in deep trouble with your finances.
Discipline is what you need here to enjoy the games without encountering issues. Because if you will stay with your limits, you won't get screwed.

Some gamblers try to keep the gambling as their professional business,but it is not the wise decision.Because the gamblers who get continuous loss will get into the emotional imbalance in the game.So he allow his emotion to play every game,this made the continuous loss again.So the gambler get addicted,gambler addicted always loss many times.The gambler get loss because of losing the self control in the gambling addiction.The gambler who get addiction will loss many times because of the loss of self control in the game.Gambling addiction should be overcome by the individual gambler to be successful in gambling.

This can also encourage you to be more responsible and always stay in budget, this is what I’ve learned the most with gambling. This could be the positive side of gambling but still it can out weight it through its negative side especially if you can’t control yourself. Gambling is still risky, don’t make this as your primary reason to gamble because there’s a lot of way to earn such skills by not losing that much.

Yes online gambling may be a reason but you have to be a complete shut in to not even learn how to socialize.

I agree that it's fun. People who interact with others usually have some common interest like certain sports so that's one way gambling could help. You may have some little arguments and will probably bet against each other on the spot.

the wider your network, the easier it will be for you to see opportunities, that is a real thing that happens, when you have lots of friends it will be easier for you to gain knowledge and also profits, you will get new things that you have never experienced before. Gambling is something that requires money, and forever there will be many people who try hard to make a profit from it, whether they are gambling business owners or gamblers themselves, maybe you will get big relationships when you gamble, and you open a business together, who know! haha

Yes critical thinking skills and socialization skills are indeed developed over a long period of time as you gamble on specific games not just any games. These are games that you bet against another user and not against the casino itself. Table games gives you the greatest place to build up your critical thinking and analytical skills as well as socialization skills too. In games like slots you play alone and you don't require socializing or critical thinking and analysis. You click a button, it the wheels and the outcome is produced within few minutes.

Just look at our forum, we're gamblers and we make friends here. And yes, in the chat box, when we see usual names that we get to gamble everyday. We chat with them.

I don't know about you but socializing doesn't mean that you need to befriends with them.

I'm not thinking about getting scammed there but just typica socializing and having some good chitchat.

Being exposed in different situations will make you learn new things and that's in gambling as well. Aside from the given skills that have been mentioned, there are a lot more for sure.

But critically thinking, how do we make friends online while gambling? Or you mean if you do chat people in the casino chat box? Well probably but I don't think I can rely on the friendship of people on the casino chat for a friendship that is meaningful and moreover you can also get scam one way or the other from their if you meet someone with bad intention. I can only associate with a physical friend offline.

Dude, you just made me remember about the things like "working under pressure" which we're experiencing in gambling too. We bet, we take risk and we become pressure.

And you're right that it's applicable in many aspects of our lives and situations.

A lot of things is being taught to us by gambling but many don't seem to look at that part because they're only thinking about, gamblers are bad people. We don't learn, we lose money and after that comes with nothing.

Yes, so this means that this isnt really just that talking about gambling games but also in other games as well or things that we are dealing off with. We do know that these
kind of characteristics could really be enhanced out on those various ways on which you could really be able to make yourself something more better if you are really that
sensible or really that mindful about on what you are doing. Enhancing those personal qualities and behaviors could really be achieved if you are really that been exposed
into certain conditions which it isnt really limited only by this kind of scenario but also with other situations in life on which it would really be causing
up that kind of changes or awareness of things which it would really be something beneficial on your part.

IMHO, it's the same as the actual games that we play nowadays online.

There's always the critical thinking where we need to apply that for decisions that we need. But the difference with gambling, of course there is a money that's on the line that you need to take care of.

And the same goes with socializing, you make new friends in online casinos and the same goes with online games that we play. We're increasing our network and as they say, network is net worth. LOL.

I say the biggest thing that gambling contributed to me as someone who pursues a professional career is the way it helps you manage your stress and pressure levels. Initially I lack self-control and I am often driven by my emotions more than my brain and logic, but as soon as I was able to finally break the code to better manage your gambling habits and discipline yourself to save bankroll and your future, I find that not only did it help me save money and be more disciplined, it also helped me gain proper management of my temper, emotions, and stress level during intense situations. I say this is the biggest contribution that gambling could give you if you're looking for a job, but as with everything, this is not gambling-specific, you can also gain these skills in other fields besides gambling.

Speaking from my own experiences, handling those betting risks forced me to make choices under some serious pressure.  Shockingly, that skill seems applicable in all kinds of situations.  Also, keeping my cool with money on the line - a common theme when you gamble - has really helped me stay composed when work gets stressful. So, yeah! Gambling can actually teach some useful life skills, despite its risky nature.

The brain works differently for every player, and not all would possess the benefits gotten through gambling. Many players already envision gambling as a bad habit hence, they careless about its benefits. Your illustration best describes naive indoor gamblers, who, by locking themself in a room, are moved by the funds over the fun and benefits they could earn. Wishing to be left alone. Young video game players, face this type of challenge. Yet, contrarily, they'll still find it very fun to discuss the game with peers, who also have the game. PC games and online gambling can help critical thinking, but derails socializing. Especially with non gamer. Why do CEOs and top managers of companies participate in offline gambling? because they're lots of gamblers topping their industry. I've played Poker with managers topping US companies. And they've been gamblers even before reaching the managerial seat. I made this point, to help readers understand that despite being gamblers they still climbed ahead of others in the company. How do you expect such a player in your illustration to be successful. If they can't control their gambling habit. In gambling and in their work place they'll definitely fail. There is always lots of time for people to gamble. These type of people bring bad name to gambling. Because they lack being focused in executing their daily task. It doesn't happen to gamblers alone. Take for instance, an employee that has an appointment to see his girlfriend during the weekend. If he has less self control, wouldn't he act like the gambler you just described? Such people can't delay gravity, and it has nothing to do with gambling or video games.

I think the advantages outweigh the benefits, they may have these two skills you've mentioned that will likely make them candidates for the jobs but if their employers and their co-workers find out that they are into gambling, this could ruin their chances to remain on the job or promotions, they have all those skills but the company always look for reputation when hiring and maintaining their employees, and how about your co-workers they might create a big issue on your gambling activities and this may ruin your image in the company you're working with.
There are characters that gamblers can develop to be better for their jobs but their being a gambler will backfire on their reputation and character.

I may be seeing things wrongly, because what I see is that most people who are involved in gambling are people who focus too much on games and move away from other people and as a consequence of this attitude they move away from other people. , they become people with serious problems socializing with other people, this happens even with a person who has been in a job for many years and when they start to play games of chance or even normal games, I'm talking about computer games, Playstation, xbox and other consoles the person starts to dedicate all their time to games and starts to distance themselves from the workplace. for example, let's say a person works in a company for more than 10 years and in these 10 years he has made many friends

On the weekends he goes out with his work friends to have fun, but one day he discovers casino games and starts playing, he has to work on weekdays so he has little time to play, so he starts playing all day on weekends and telling his friends at work not to look for him because he is busy, this type of behavior can be seen in many people who work and then get involved with games, and it doesn't stop there, After he starts to ignore his friends, he starts to ignore his relatives and if he has a wife and children, he also starts to ignore them. Even in cases where the person is not yet dominated by addiction, the behavior of this gambling is exactly as I described.

By this I mean that I do not agree that players are very social people who can think critically, to have critical thinking they would need to be people who are more focused on their work and who pay a lot of attention to the company's employees and how the company works, something that It's difficult for many players, because they just focus on the games, the only thing that goes through their heads is that they finish their job early and they rush to play early. I saw some people in my country who are like this, they always think that the days must pass quickly to get to the weekend because there is no work at the company on the weekends, so they have more time on the weekends to play.
