because......

any choice in every bodies’ life is actually a gambling…

choose a wise husband from a bunch of boys is a gambling
choose a school to study is a gambling
choose a boss to work with is a gambling

so, gambling is addictive…

no one can escape...

The addiction to gambling is very dangerous for people and their family. In my country, a lot of families have broken up because the husband or wife wallow in sensual pleasures of the gambling. "Gambling leads to misery" is the best sentences to describe the negative impact of this game on their family.

It happens when someone takes gambling as a way to earn money! Gambling is certainly not a way to earn money for living! It is a method of entertainment! When I visited Macau back in 2017, I gambled a lot during my stay just to entertain myself and I didn't take it as a source of income to fund my visit! So if you are using a method for what it is not meant for, it will lead to misery for sure!

I think the reason why they are getting addicted to gambling is just because they want an instant money, they want an easy profit which is not possible. Beside, I think another reason is once they play gambling and lose they tend to play again to retrieve their loss then it'll become habit of them which can conclude that you became an addict.

Kind of true! That's a psychological quotient that leads to even bigger issues! It's like taking out a loan at higher interest rate to close a previous loan, which doesn't make any sense! If I loss a significant amount of money in stock market, I would try to recover that losses through traditional investment because that is more secure! It may take time but at the end of the day, I will be getting my losses back! That's what makes more sense!

People are attracting to the gambling games because they think that gambling gives them fast money by playing various games. But the reality is they don't think about the risk of playing gambling and they only thinking money. But some of them doesn't think about money at all and they just curious about the gambling games, so they tried to play. But after they play and they can win some money, they think that gambling is a way to earn money, so people keep playing and use all of the money and finally, they lost that money without a chance to get their money back.

In my own personal opinion, the things that causes person to become intensely addicted to gambling is money simply because we experience greed that we always want to win just to earn a lot of money. That is why a lot of people experienced addiction in gambling because they don't play gambling for entertainment they play just to earn money.

Greed is the main reason why gamblers becomes addicted to gambling. Its either they want to earn more or they want to recover their loses. They should learn when to stop, they need to discipline themselves. I have seen people who we're addicted to gambling who started to have a lot of money, cars and houses who eventually loss everything that they own.

A person starts to be addicted in gambling when he starts winning and gets used to it. As soon as he starts losing, he tries to recovers his losses. Still setting a target is a good idea in gambling, regardless if its target when you start losing or target when you start winning. You cant win all the time you have to keep that in mind so whenever you win, separate your profits from your capital so you will not go home with an empty pocket.

The easy money that they can make within few seconds is what makes a person addicted to gambling. Do keep in mind that, it is not always about winning. Even losses can make people addicted, since most gambling addict tries to chase their loss and once they are successful, they get the satisfaction which makes them want to gamble more. But in the end, it is all about the get quick rich mentality that makes people addicted to gambling.

It's not about the easy money that you're getting but the thrill of possibly being able to get them. It's not about catching the rabbit, it's all about the chase Wink

The risk increases your blood pressure and adrenaline and you get excited. People like that and that's why they watch horror movies, drive cars at thigh speed, and gamble.

For me the best way to prevent gambling addiction is abstinence. Not gamble at all.

This is definitely the best way to bet on yourself, hands down.

It can easily be said but difficult in applying to a gambler. You can't just have complete abstinence in gambling if you have been practicing it for most of your time. But if you are good in controlling yourself and in pushing through your goal, it's possible.

What do usually come to an individual is the thinking that this is just a pastime but when you are giving more time to it, you're getting attached then you will never notice that you are addicted on it already.

When someone really likes what they are doing means they are getting addicted to it,it may have positive and negative but in gambling it has lot of negatives only.

When someone entering into gambling then they need to know why they were here,the only reason for gambling is to be fun,if they are here for money they will lose everything.

That's how hobby turns into addiction if you are getting attached to what you do most of the time. All you have said about thinking of gambling as part of entertainment, having fun and don't have to be serious is correct.

And as I've said, doing that to an addicted gambler can't be applied easily. There's a process that it has to go through and there might be some other reason why he/she is intensely gambling. There's one story that I've heard that he is gambling to escape his problems so there might be some personal issues that we may not know.

I can't think of a more good reason that make a person to become heavily addicted other than greed. Greed is the main reason because greed eats your soul from inside, you don't think of nothing else except gambling and risks his life, friendship , job and family.

Once in this situation you should ask for professional help, or in extreme cases it can end with suicide.

I will say the main reason people tend to do this is because they tend to get the wrong initial idea about gambling.

There is a lot your mindset has to play when you are approaching gambling for the first time. Yeah, the curiosity is there, you want to try something for the first time, but what is actually the motivating factor to want to try it ? That is what matters.

A lot of people are motivated based on their urge to want to make more money from gambling, while some actually try to compel themselves to do it for fun. With the complete mindset of wanting to make more money without understanding the risks, that is where the problem starts when it comes to addiction.

Thinking as pastime at first but then enjoyed the game and forgot the time. Curiousity about the luck will usually make people keep trying and tend to use more time on gambling which slowly will make people addicted. To keep steady on the the first plan, make gambling as just for entertainment, will face a bunch of obstacles.

What you are stating is different kind of gambling, that is gambling in life, gambling in every decision. If we're talking about the gambling in casino. The only reason is because of money. Gambling can turn your small money into big and could make you rich overnight but it's kinda hard. So they keep on trying and sometimes forgot those important things they should do.

If we really want to be focusing on reality and the main reason why people actually tend to gamble, it is always for the money.
I have never seen anyone that approached gambling for the first time all in the name of wanting to catch fun, it is just normal human mindset and the drive comes based on the possibilities you see when it comes to making money and that is where the whole thing get to start from.

Some in the long run, tend to understand the risk and the need to always limit and control themselves, while some do not, and for that reason they become hugely expose to gambling risks and then getting out of it becomes a problem as they keep pursuing what they can't find.

I actually do think that some people just gamble for fun, without even expecting to make money out of it.
I mean people go on holiday to Vegas and spend like $100 at the casinos there, fully expecting to spend that $100 entirely.

Then you have skill-based games where it's really more about the game itself, then to make money out of it.

I used to go to a weekly IRL poker game, which was just about playing games with friends and drinking beer every Friday night.
Sure, it's fun when you actually win, but i wouldn't say that it was any less fun when you didn't win.

People become addicted in gambling if its the only way we know how to earn money its a big help also to thise gamblers because you can find the answer of your finances.It's the easiest way to get money so gamblers extremly addicted in gambling.

But Wrong.

You can't make regular money in gambling if you want to,only it will happen if you are lucky enough so who came to gamble for making money will get addicted and also lose their wealth too.

Yeah, we don't know when we can win in gambling game but the truth, we know that we can lose much money in gambling. There is no short way to get the money from a gambling game, and we know it but we still playing gambling. But somehow, if we can win easily in the gambling game, then it is better for us to stop the game and quit the game. No one will know when their luck will come and we cannot predict that thing.

I completely agree on this.

There are a lot of ways to carefully gamble and one of them is to make a limit in every of your gamble games. It is great since you will be having an amount where you can base if you will be losing or winning or keep gambling or stop gambling but it might be broken by the emotion of you or the greediness that you have. It is better to stop gambling and just bet on what you can do in your life, that is more effective. Also, that way, you know that you did your best to make your life more successful rather than just depending on your luck as a gambler.

Really wrong, yet many gamblers are still trap on this belief. They think gambling is the only way to make money, when in fact a lot of resources outside in gambling world that you can make more money without risking a lot of money and also your life. Gambling is really addicting, if its possible to stay away from this much better to do it early, controlling yourself is one thing to prevent yourself from getting addict. There's a lot of ways to earn money, don't be too confident in gambling better to find a decent job that makes you earn stable income, know that you're also risking the life of your family when you gamble.

Yes.I think it's the wrong belief of the people who make gambling as a source of income.Gamblers may have an instant money in just a single game but it may also gone the next minute around.Winning and losing are just the two possibilities but losing is what usually happen.So if you want to minimize your losses,do not gamble more often.
