       -   Gambling is not bad if we use it correctly, and nothing is affected in our personal relationships with family and friends if the only intention is to have fun or just pass the time. But gambling with debt is a stupid move, in my opinion.

And the only person who does that is the gambler who has an addiction to gambling in a casino. Such thinking is no longer normal or correct. I don't know what the OP's main motive is for creating this topic. Are you just joking, or are you just teasing the community gamblers here?

Jolly? I think I've heard that name before. hmm
As far as I know gambling is an addiction many people play it for fun, but constantly playing it leads to addiction. Then if a person says no addiction but he must have become addicted. Things that give joy at one time in life gives dawn to despair. If you see that you are losing more money then you have to connect your emotions, the lost money will never be recovered. The way to eliminate the negative way is to control emotions.

And often people who have spent a lot of money gambling do not stop but continue gambling in the hope of being able to recover the money they lost. A person like this clearly falls into the category of addict and he will do anything to get money so he can continue gambling. He only realized his mistake when he had nothing left, be it money, friends, or family. This is something bad and anyone should be able to control their emotions before this happens.

If we occasionally chase losses, it may still be normal, but if we continue, we will definitely get worse and go bankrupt.

Do you see this as addiction or just catching of fun?
 

This is one of the worst advice I've seen so far when it comes of gambling. Loan to gamble?  That's very wrong. Who ever had created such images must be an addicted gambler. We shouldn't forget that gambling should be with money you can afford to loose and definitely taking loan to gamble you can't afford to loss it.

Someone who goes to that extent has already been addicted. It might seem to him like nothing but sooner or later, he will notice that when he isn't winning they money he had borrowed will start Ringing a bell on his head. We should have fun when gambling but donut wisely listening to such unreasonable advice or words from addicted persons will only yield more problems for someone.
Borrowing money to gamble would not be a good suggestion because it would give the borrower problems, especially if he experiences loss and loses all his money. Even though he has to repay the loan on time, he doesn't have the money to pay back the loan money. That is why we have to allocate a certain amount of money to play gambling so that we don't have to borrow money.

However, people who are addicted to gambling will not think about whether it is borrowed money or their own money, even though they know that they have borrowed money from other people. He also won't think about how to return the money to the lender, which might cause problems for his family members who have to return the loan money.
Well, at this juncture, I wil have to say and make it categorically clear that, not every gambler who are or is addicted to gambling is this gullible and senseless, some addicted gamblers still have their sense of reasoning and can still think out of the box to know what is wrong and what is right, and some still do consider and put their family first in all their gambling activities, though rare you might want to say, which is correct, but then, very possible.

I do have once come across a gambling addict who still will never borrow money to gamble, he told me he feels relaxed and comfortable anytime he doesnt have money to gamble with, and at this point, he feels like he's no longer addicted to gambling, like he's never gambled before.
But then, his problems was that, immediately salary is paid or he gets money through some menial jobs he used to do, he will become completely restless, and until he gambles all that money away, he would not find rest, this to me seemed like a highest form of addiction to gambling, and I even sometimes imagined that his problems was spiritual, but never did I see or hear he borrowed money to gamble in all the years we lived in the same area.

Sometimes it's difficult how things get for addicts, in that when they start looking for money no matter what, prey or whatever, it's one of the things they shouldn't do , I've always said that to borrow money you don't have to. be under other types of Circumstances , first there should not be any type of thing that is gambling, and secondly to Borrow money according to my criteria it is for something strictly of last necessity, and that Adhering to the conditions of the lender, generally speaking They give loans with collateral and that is something that is really strong to fulfill, because everyone wants to take care of their money and everyone wants things to be good and favorable for them , personally asking for borrowed money is synonymous with Making things better. and be able to allocate things that are supremely important.

In the case of your friend , he saw you as a Solution , but in this case your friends made you see that it was a loan, but both you and he knew that that Money was not going to come back to you , that money was exclusively a rule For him and you Know it , I think he was aware of it, sometimes because you are a good person you do those Types of thing s, and all we need is to have many things so that it can be evident that everything is Favorable and Yes , both he and the player will Win a lot and will have so much money that he will pay you , but that is not the case , sometimes in the game , in sports betting, we have to see things with the responsibility that it implies, that is, They should not be under the illusion that they will get great income from the casino, no, that they depend on the casino to do many things, so sometimes the person's Culture influences a lot , I personally have Always said something, we must be people who are not conformist , but we must know that in casino we must sometimes assume things as they are , if we lose, we lose , if we win it is simple , we Have to Repeat , that is what it means to Play in the casino and Accept its Designs.

Using loan money to gamble is not a good thing to do because it can get one into trouble, however it is not for only gamblers but also for those that are into business, investment, trading and gambling.
Addicted can make one to be in a serious trouble because it is not everytime that one will gain in what they do, sometimes people have to encounter loses in their business or investment and not to talk about gambling, gambling that not even have a insurance of winning, it is not good as you have said earlier.
If a gambler have tried this that means he should get ready to meet loses and addictions. A lot of people who borrowed money to do these things fund it very difficult to pay back because they have lost everything that they have borrowed.
One can borrow money for something else like emergency cases, because they might have a source of income but at the time of emergencies they might not have the money to sort it out so they can just borrow and leter they pay back... As long as they don't use it to gamble, they can borrow and pay back.
Win-seeking drives us to underestimate losses, especially in the heat of the gamble.

We shouldnt demonise gambling. Many indulge in it responsibly. The excitement, adrenaline, and strategy can be interesting. Moderation and playing within your limits are key to any sort of amusement. Borrowing to gamble? The line blurs there. Betting a money you owe is different from betting your own. The former is entertaining, the latter dangerous.

However, borrowing for emergencies or vital necessities is different. Practicality is often crucial. It shows that loans are for emergencies, not gambling. Those who enjoy fun gambling should gamble for amusement, not destruction. Lighthearted, enjoyable, and most importantly, on your own playground, not borrowed.

Addiction is when you just can't do without something,it is that thing you really want to stop,but it's very difficult to because there is something attached to it that you just can't understand.While Fun is something you enjoy doing,it is that thing that gives you joy anytime you do it,and if we want to relate the two,there is no way we can say gambling is fun when we are losing our money,each time we lose money,it has something to do with our feelings and emotions,there is that sadness inside of us,but because we still want to win,we'll keep on trying,and the more we try,the more we lose.I see some persons say gambling is fun,it can't be fun  because it has a way of affecting us negatively.
I agree with you on some points but I am confused on one point because I think that even if someone loses in gambling he is not happy temporarily but after some time he becomes interested in gambling because everyone wants to win. If one tries there he is defeated but he can win again. Another thing is the addiction that exists in many people, some understand it and some cannot even understand and control it. But if someone does not spend too much on gambling, then there will be no harm for him, on the other hand, if the income is spent more, then the addiction comes to everyone's attention.

It's really hard to imagine that you're going to spend all your money and assets that you have with something uncertain decision whether you'll win or not.  You're lucky if you're one of those people who gets richer because of gambling. for me, I'd be laughing if you had to drive to OP's shared post advice because which sane person would give advice like that especially to newbies in gambling? it's like the guy who posted that, wants other gamblers to be like him, he wants them to suffer at the same time because he already in debt and have lost all assets because of gambling addiction,

just relying on luck in gambling in my opinion is just nonsense. It may happen that someone gets rich from gambling, but it doesn't last long, because the greed factor will destroy it all in an instant. maybe you can win today and consider it luck, but not necessarily tomorrow. It's impossible if you've won a lot and don't think about taking a second chance at gambling again.

This can be true for people who happen to have such big wins during their initial gambling experience.The fact that they will want to try again is inevitable in such context as they may be thinking how easy is to win in gambling leading them to try again and because of greed to lose it all.

It is a completely different scenario when an experienced gambler hit it big,I won about 10.000 dollars last year and I withdrew 9000 and kept playing the remaining 1000 not caring what happens with them.I invested in small cryptos that amount so experience plays a big role in how you handle success.

Generational wealth from gambling is like walking on air, we all know how impossible this is unless one is a great magician, still possible but only few magicians can pull this trick, how many gamblers have turned wealthy in gambling? Maybe 10 out of millions.

Are you going to bet all your life and precious time on something that brings this thinly chances of luck to human? You may not the next number eleven because the chances are too slim, this is the true meaning of gambling.

What OP shared is a very bad advice and I hope it doesn't get into the mind of any newbie on here, telling people to take a loan is even the worst, you literally can not lose it says, LMAO, that's crazy.

Lol this is an hypocrisy. Someone says this when they are at the extremes of addiction. This type of public will harm itself as well as the people around it. Gambling with loan can never be normal, here surely the person is addicted. Just avoid this kind of talk when you will see it. Always take gambling as for fun with what you can afford to lose.

But then, talking about generation wealth from gambling, based on what you said, I did say that possibility of something happening being very slim is very different from impossibility, that is, as long as something as a chance of happening, no matter how little that chance is, it if wrong to refer to such thing as impossible to happen.

If we were to start doing research on this, we did discover that far more than 10 persons out of a million around the world have somehow won an amount that we can consider to be a generational wealth, most especially in the area of lottery, but like you said, chances are always slim, and I doubt those who won it even know or knew they were going to win it.
Basically this is true and also this should never be the mindset of any gambler, is similar to this fact that there are some gamblers who has lost their money in gambling and made the goal of getting more or the exact money they lost from that casino and they actually do get it while alot have become miserable because of this mindset.

My take is that all these mindset of taking loan for gambling, wanting to get back the money lost in gambling, thinking of becoming rich, depending on gambling as source of income or regretting not staking more after you win should be avoided, never allow this cloud your mind or be your main goal. Gambling should be done for fun if you win good, if you lose no worries just learn better from the experience.

Underestimate- nothing
This one is already addicted to gambling and it shows that he will do whatever it takes just for him to gamble. I don't know why some people still think that they are supposed to make the money that will take care of them for life through gambling. Gamble when you can but taking a lone to gamble is not advisable.
Nothing will stop gambling addicts, and if they are doing it for fun, they will enjoy it for that reason as well. However, if they are looking to gamble as a means of making money, watching sports is not a good alternative. Once you have the mindset that you can make money from gambling, you will never make any money and will always lose money because that is the only way you can gamble. People also don't even know how to choose games; all they know how to do is pick them at random. and you can not live through gambling you can just enjoy for a while.

The gambler who get addicted to the gambling will never come to know about their own addiction,because their ultimate aim of the gambling site will be start to recover the money from the gambling site.But the gamblers can’t recover the funds,if they doesn’t create the good strategy for the game.Most of the gamblers will play the few games,because they try to master of that game or they have wish in few games alone.Learning the game basics was the important one to the gambler who wanted to make money using the gambling site.The gambler who wants to make money by playing the gambling game should ready to risk the money and also to build their game for the future gain in the game.

Addicted people don't admit that they are always addicted and will tell you that they are just trying to survive not knowing that the amount they have decided to spent on gambling is enough for them to set up a business. but no they always want it the easy way. and life is more to been easy the best thing is to gamble responsibly. and if your money is gone while you gambling it is gone. playing very few games is smart and if you games are to much then it will even be more difficult to win. but they will always want to select much games to get bigger odd. they don't even care about strategy of anything they have concern for is there money.

WhatsApp group chats seem more like friendship than addiction. Members can chat, debate soccer, and make predictions. It appears fun and doesn't involve gambling because the incentives are data subscriptions.

Bettors must be mindful of their tendencies and treat gambling as a hobby. Responsible participation, enjoyment, and no harmful effects make it a safe and fun social activity.

About taking a loan for gambling, that is actually the worst advise anybody can give to his or her fellow human being.

The gambler who get addicted to the gambling will never come to know about their own addiction,because their ultimate aim of the gambling site will be start to recover the money from the gambling site.But the gamblers can’t recover the funds,if they doesn’t create the good strategy for the game.Most of the gamblers will play the few games,because they try to master of that game or they have wish in few games alone.Learning the game basics was the important one to the gambler who wanted to make money using the gambling site.The gambler who wants to make money by playing the gambling game should ready to risk the money and also to build their game for the future gain in the game.
Thinking you can recover all you have lost to the gambling site just like that is another way of tricking yourself into incurring some more loss because you may end up not winning back that which you have lost rather you will loose that which you are staking to recover that which you lost which will na become even more losses for you.

Sometimes you may be lucky to win back your lost funds but then discipline to leave after recovery may be lacking and that's the point where you may now end up with more losses than you would have had if you had stoped and moved on with that which you have won. Building games to be able to have a winning advantage is a very good strategy to winning but the problem lays within staying disciplined to keeping to such rule because some may really find it difficult to stick to such rules especially when they eventually grow the money to a certain amount, they will no longer have the patience and discipline they may now start gambling recklessly.

In my opinion, recovering losses is the same as spending a lot of money, that's the big possibility. because in my opinion we shouldn't do that, because it's clear that the bigger losses will dominate. and indeed there are people who borrow money to gamble again with the aim of recovering losses, very unfortunate. Their will only directs them to actions that will cause greater harm, after all, taking out a loan to gamble is not right, because it will not possibly be as smooth as imagined.

Yes, that's true, even though it can happen, the temptation to gamble is strong, so that when they have won something that shouldn't happen, such as risking it again to get an even bigger win, because they want to get more, which leads them to the point of big losses You are right, most gamblers don't have good discipline,  causing bad luck for themselves. In fact, if they have good self-control and good discipline, it seems like bad things can be avoided or won't happen, but in reality everything turns around.
