Topic: Two Carreer skill benefit of gambling - page 7. (Read 687 times)

Well, if you are playing live poker and sports betting those things can be acquired.
But what if you are just playing online Plinko? There's no such thing as critical thinking with those games. You just play the game and let the system decide if you are lucky or not.
Sure, there are benefits to gambling and one of those is how to be responsible with your money and being careful with it. We gamblers somehow know the importance of spending it because we don't want to just throw away money on a bet that we know is on the losing side. Sports bettors especially do care a lot about their bets. They do deep analysis and try to enhance their chance of winning by reading articles and looking at the history of teams and players so that they can make sure the money they will be risking will have a better chance to gain double or maybe even better in parlays.

The strain and stress gotten from trying to be logical enough to get the best picks for you to be lucky enough to win while gambling may possibly have a positive effects on your thinking skills because you become more logical than regular especially if you are experienced gambling.

Gamblers are known to effectively communicate amongst themselves especially when they have to share ideas as to how well and safe an option is to increase their chances of winning, sometimes some of them even offer education on gambling to each other for free because they get this bond amongst themselves and that helps them communicate effectively but I think outside the gambling arena some of them are not able to apply that professionally or I'm their daily lives.

I'd definitely be keen about the first point you made - critical thinking.
Its wise to say the thorough investigations and comparisons between different teams, just to be able to speculate what the team plays at the end definitely needs "critical thinking"

it could have an impact in your personal life on the inside-out; do you actually think you'll become a responsible gambler ?? What critics that would be on the opposite.

It seems that when compared to people who feel happy with their gambling activities, it is much less. because in fact nowadays most people complain about the gambling they do, perhaps because they often lose. And whatever it is, even though they often complain about their gambling activities, this does not make them stop their gambling activities and in fact people like this continue to increase their hopes that gambling can change their lives.

And if we talk about critical reasoning power and social skills, this is indeed quite important so that we can become better gambling players. Because with sharp critical reasoning, this will enable us to make quite mature analyzes and calculations.
And with good socialization skills, this will make it easier for us to search for and find information and solutions.

Yes there may be "some" degree of critical thinking in gambling but to be fair, it's not required, so probably most people don't. Like me! I just turn off my brain whenever I play simple games like dice, crash, slots, blackjack, heck even poker. In sports gambling, though I do indeed try to delve into the deeper side of things when it comes to matchups, but it's not to the point where companies would hire me really just based on that. Might've helped a bit when developing it but that's about it.

As for socialization, don't really count online conversations for my side really. It just feels different in real life, and I mostly suck at it so I know. Even in instances where I gambled in some local casinos I don't really do small talk with people.

There are two kinds of gamblers, one is extrovert and the other one is introvert.  Maybe you have encountered lots of introverted gamblerss, the reason why you stated that these people are scared of socialization but if you happen to be a frequent visitor of a gambling establishment, you will found out that most people who are hanging on the gambling vicinity loves to interact with other people.  Some even make offline casinos as hangout and one way to meet new friends.


I am also one of the few who want to spend my gambling time alone.  I also don't want others prying their eyes on what I am playing so I often gamble online to suit my needs.  But sometimes, I go out with my friends and try to have fun in the nearby casino.

It's almost true to everyone that if you're a gambler, you're likely to have developed this career skills with gambling because you will be a social person being a gambler and you will also you will have to be a fast and accurate thinker because you will have to be in some situations that may warrant making the possible fast and accurate decision with gambling, while being all through this with some gambling platforms, you're learning and developing your career skills with gambling.

I somewhat agree to critical thinking or the ability to perform an analysis, but not with the second one. There are a lot of gamblers out there that are scared of socialization and would rather play solo rather than play with another person. A lot are also shying away from the discussion of gambling thinking they're going to be judged just because they're engaged in an activity that is prone to culminating addicts.

I myself am not a social gambler, and would rather sit in an empty room and gamble and make my analyses and predictions there. I am easily distracted, therefore I do not want another person interfering with what I'm doing, especially if it involves losing or winning some money.

Not everyone enjoy or sees gambling as a means of earning extra change, some envisioned to be one of these activities that tend to liquidate our bank accounts because once we're in the system, there's no going back, we tend to continue gambling until we end up with absolutely nothing. We are different human beings and our goals do differs, we learn alot from the system, that's for those of us that re acquainted with the system and knows how it operates, but for those individuals who don't believe the system, they've no concerns about the system, just full focus on their jobs.

Socialization with gambling is one of the few good side-effects actually.
People sitting in their neighborhood cafe or restaurant would play some card games to pass time and do something together.
So it's an old tradition.

But see, the thing is, you can talk and socialize even without playing cards. And also, online gambling doesn't really do much in terms of socializing.
So especially when it comes discussing gambling with crypto, I think the effects of this specific benefit aren't that noteworthy.

I think the reasons why many people hated gambling is beyond what you have mentioned. There are people that see gambling activities as something we don't ought to do based on the risk and addiction that is involved. When we look at it from the religious aspects, their are too many reasons why religious organizations do not support gambling. We all have the right to do anything we like or associates ourselves to whatever organization or activities we want inasmuch as it is not illegal or something that would jeopardize the activities of others. There are so many benefits to gambling especially when we are lucky enough to be making consistent profits over and over again.

It would be depending on what kind of gambling activity you are dealing with but since you are dealing with physical gambling on which you would be going against with other player then there's no doubt that
you could be having that socialization but i dont see for it to be the sole reason on why you have enhanced yourself in speaking about socialization considering that we are dealing with things
on day to day basis on which we might not be aware that it is already enhancing our socialization with other people but if you do see that your gambling involvement did make out some change
then its good for you. Same goes for critical thinking on which its not only gambling that would be able to enhance your critical thinking on which we know that we could really be able to enhance
this thing naturally if we wanted to.

This is why i would say that it is really that a little bit irrelevant if we do speak about enhancement of these specific areas of a person on which we know
that these things could be acquired into other method and we might not really just that wary of it.

There exist over one million and one reason why people hate gambling, but few benefits of gambling can make a player to outsmart his colleagues in the office. Or even in an interview. I was able to check how gambling benefits relate to what HR officers look out for in a candidate before hiring them. There are 2 main benefit of gambling that improves the major skills people look out for in an employee in every offices.

1. Critical thinking: there have never been any job opening that doesn't require candidates to have this skill, because every company needs it to grow. And under critical thinking include skills like problem solving, idealist etc.

2. Socialization: Mainly the corporate world will call it interpersonal relationship. It's a very crucial skill anywhere we find ourselves in the world. And gamblers who participate in board games, easily develop the skill. When in the office, they'll always socialize and make friends with co-workers.

Personally, I've experienced these two, in my daily conversation with people. And realized that my responses are now more effective than it used to be in the past, before I began gambling. I'd always think fast and respond accurately what the next person wants to hear. And most times it makes them laugh. 

There are other benefits of gambling, and how it has helped your gambling life. It'll be great if you shared some of it with us. Cheers.
