So in weekends in my departmental WhatsApp group, we just randomly talk about soccer bets and sometimes drop a particular game and keep it open for correct score prediction to be made on it, and the first person with the correct score goes home with a data subscription, this has been going on for almost two years now and people have gotten used to it without knowing it.

This is one of the chat I just bumped into by one of us in the group chat and at this point I feel most of my friend have made it compulsory to always gamble every weekend.



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

Mind you, we just enjoy the moment and might just joke around with people making predictions based on the teams,  they love but we are mostly gamblers at our different ends.

Gambling is enjoyable within certain limits. But if someone is gambling beyond that limitation then it is not normal and it turns into addiction. And in gambling if someone tries to gamble with borrowed money or loans then I would call that a high degree of addiction. Taking a loan and gambling can make his personal life miserable and his family can also get into various complications by the loan effect. If a gambler spends 5 percent of his monthly income to enjoy gambling, it will not affect his personal life and he can manage gambling freely.

This seriously an addiction. Why will you take a loan to gamble. Gambling isn't a sure business or investment, then why will you encourage someone to take a loan for something that is sure you will make profit from. In real business, it isn't advisable to start with loan not to talk of something most risky than this.

This is what I would definitely call a wrong motivation. Of course some persons may perceive it as a fun but the fact is this particular write up will mislead a lot of newbie gamblers into staking irresponsibly and even into addiction. For those that are already addicts, it will only give them more reason to remain as addicts.
In my opinion, articles of this nature are not to be shared or published either for the fun or joke of it because of its misleading information. Some people may see it as fun and joke over it while others may take it seriously and put it into practice.
Yes, that is the wrong motivation that can lead someone into gambling and trying to continue gambling. They will not want to think that what they are doing is wrong and continue gambling because they think that they are close to winning. This will make them slowly become gambling addicts and they may not realize it, especially if they gamble excessively. Articles like that do not need to be distributed, especially to teenagers, because they can make them try to play some gambling games and mislead them because they get the wrong information. And it's not a funny joke because it can make people take it seriously, making them want to gamble more than do other things.

That's right, jokes like this are very inappropriate to be told in public. especially for beginner gambling players. If they take this seriously and actually do it, it will certainly push them further into the abyss so deep that if they don't die, they will definitely never be found again.

So anyway, I applied as a merit source :)
I still don't know why people would want to take risk in playing gambling,  no matter the risk people take in playing gambling just to make profit by all means it still don't guarantee it will surely end up a win.  No amount of playing can really give people the desired money they want , it is just better to play with amount one can afford to lose and no need to invest much I'm gambling that will end up to be waste .
The win or loss is less important but the process of taking the risk and playing on in leads to a dopamine rush that gives a pleasurable feeling to the gambler. This sensation is what is important to them and not getting that means they will play more and more to get it more frequently, the same as any drug is taken to maintain its high and not getting that high leads to withdrawal.

It is the same method that many things operate in this world. TV shows, motivational speakers are all using methods to stimulate you neurons to feel that and similarly gambling works.

So the path is what gives them pleasure not the result.

No amount of hype a motivational speaker can make me go that extent. It is stated in different places that always play with your spear money, and not to take that risk even when it's affecting you. I guest this is not from gambling site because they alway say that people should gamble responsibly. And saying this now seems its a kind of setup. Gambling is a trial attempt to make money but not an investment that will make you spend a huge amount of money without considering the risk.

In my point of view at the beginning journey of gambling is fun but slowly it create addection on it. Those who we are gambler from long time we know that what type of feel we do when we don't gamble for long time. We feel anxiety hesitated. At the beginning it's look like nothing going to happened but slowly we feel that we are getting addected with it. My point of view is day by day slowly we are getting addected with with it.
I have the same opinion about you, because if you are familiar with gambling, you will indirectly become an addict. At first he only plays on weekends. The longer he gambles, he will bet every day. It is better to stop or advise him not to do it regularly. being consistent at the weekend would end in disaster for him, how to advise gambling addicts is also quite difficult
Gambling addiction is never gotten at once, it starts from your first game till the point where you turn addicted, some persons don't literally have to gamble everyday to get them to addiction but just any of the days the dedicate to gambling you see how much time they spend on it so much that they almost loose track of every other thing around them that day.

Some persons as part of their strategy play only on weekends and the only advantage of such persons is that they don't get to the point of addiction as fast as the person who gambles daily ad they can easily be helped if they happen to addicted because they may most likely not get chronic as the daily gamblers but then addiction generally isn't a good thing to deal with be it chronic or acute. For those who have gotten to the point of addiction it's best to quit and not even trying to control it because in cause of controlling, they may get to the point where they can get triggered and become addicted again.

That's right, they should be able to realize that gambling cannot provide profitable wins quickly, and the steps taken are wrong where they don't choose to work but choose to gamble. Of course this is not right, if they don't work then they won't have income and if they are like that then gambling as a shortcut to making money is just a dream that is difficult to realize. because in my opinion, with them like that, it is very likely that they will only have problems with their own finances.

Yes, that's true, many of them can't accept defeat which causes them to spend more money because they continue to gamble with the motive of recovering losses that have occurred, and this will continue to happen if they are not aware of it, there will be no end to it. Therefore it is clear that they will experience large losses as you say, and if they continue to carry out this impulsive action there is a possibility that they will borrow money to be able to gamble again and the goal is still the same to recover the losses that have occurred. even though if they do it like this there is no guarantee that they will get a win that can cover their losses, so I think they are addicted to gambling so it is difficult to avoid gambling.
That's a critical point about the potential pitfalls of relying on gambling as a quick and reliable source of income. The idea that gambling can be a shortcut to financial success is often a misconception that can lead to significant problems. Choosing not to work and relying solely on gambling for income is a very bad decision. People need a stable and predictable source of income that is provided in employment. Gambling is inherently uncertain and can result in significant financial losses. Relying on gambling as a primary means of making money is unrealistic and can lead to financial instability.

The issue of people struggling to accept defeat and attempting to recover losses by continuing to gamble is a common challenge. This behavior can contribute to a cycle of financial losses and emotional distress. Gambling should be approached as a form of entertainment, and people should be aware of the risks involved. Sane poeple chase financial stability with certain income, not with uncertainty winning bets.

In my opinion, this idea often occurs among many people, because this makes them not want to move, they tend to prefer gambling as a shortcut to getting rich or earning income, but what is clear is that this kind of idea is certainly not true, because with the idea like this will only make them experience large losses which tend to be unavoidable. If they are wrong from the start then there is a clear possibility that they will get bad results.

Of course, if they want a stable income they have to work, because it is not recommended to make gambling their main source, it will only destroy their finances, sooner or later destruction from various directions will come. and all this happens because they are addicted to gambling and it is difficult to get rid of this addiction because it is also attached to them. You are right, people who have a good mindset or are sane, of course they will look for income from realistic work, but if they are looking for income by betting or taking out loans to return to gambling, chances are they are no longer sane, because it is true that gambling can change a person's thinking. Therefore gambling must be played carefully and naturally, don't gamble excessively because that is the wrong action.

When you are actually promoting gambling for money purposes, that is addiction, that is not even addiction at that point, if you do it yourself then it's addiction but we are talking about literally just having some sort of personal troubles with you, because you are suggesting others to do it.

I believe that the best thing you could do would be just focusing on yourself, do not give any other person advice about gambling, if you are telling people to keep gambling, you are making a huge mistake. What happens if people lose all their money and everything they own, while chasing the "generational wealth"? That is not going to come out of your end, that's going to hurt the gambler. So, it is not a good thing and people should stay away from these people.

yeah, it's obviously  not from a gambling site but if we are being truthful to ourselves , the owners of gambling shops makes their profit when people loose in the gamble and every business person wants to get profit so I doubt most of them care much on the addictive part of their business.

If they cared, they should have designed the site I such a way that after using a particular amount fir a day or stipulated period of time, you wouldn't be given access to the site. Most of them run social media ad that makes you fell that gambling isn't addicted and that winning is 100% guaranteed.
This is why it would be always best that no matter on what condition or situation you are then it would be that just that normal that you would really be having that kind of approach in speaking about those risks involved about doing gambling but if you do something about betting basing up on OP stated situation then as long you arent compromising into those moments specially money then you should really be just fine but if we do see the other things around then it would really be just that normal that we would really be having that kind of possibilities on facing up those risks.
Making betting with other people or colleagues isnt really that bad even if you do it on day to day basis, it all matters on the control made out by someone.

My experience has shown that it's a dangerous route. Gambling is enticing since it offers rapid cash, but as you noted, it's unstable. I've seen gambling's unpredictability tear lives apart. One thing is certain: a solid job gives you purpose, structure, and financial security. Gambling's volatility renders it unreliable for a living.

Chasing losses psychologically is risky. This behavioral trap traps people into financial and emotional anguish. My loved ones are caught in this cycle, which is heartbreaking. Your point about gambling being entertainment is key. It may be fun responsibly. Recognizing its risks and limitations is crucial. Financial stability requires planned, not random, steps.


Well, the truth is that if your family is in that Age group, you Should do Everything Possible to gradually improve your chances. The caisnso are spectacular for fun, but you have to be very careful not to fall into addictions, because Unfortunately what you are saying is that they are in an aid and that is something that they must Get out of as Quickly as possible so that they do not continue in that very dangerous cycle , what I encourage you to do is that, to not Stop giving them Support , because for them it can be the best to be like this ,  but Everything We know that things when they try to do more things they can't, they are in a Cycle where things have to happen for the Better , in a case that you have who are people who are all the time looking for the way to be happiness through the casino and Difficulty , because they will Naturally Feel a lot of Pleasure when playing , the money will become like a Second plane to them , because that is how they can Perceive when they are in that Phase , then if things are not Recommended in Casinos are like that , I could think that When it comes to Casinos and Addictions we Should be superior and Understand the Dangers they Face.

You just have to think , what will Happen when the money runs out ? How are they Going to get money to Play , but also how are they Going to have the Money to support themselves? If things are difficult these days , I know that all over the World things are Not so Easy to say that you can Spend a lot of money in a casino, so when Things get tough and that is something for which we must stick , and work hard to Achieve enough to live Somewhat Peacefully with our Food ,  Vitamins, have an adequate education for our Children and Above all so that things do not Become Distorted , in any case this is what we Should see with Great care when it Comes to Place , not to fall into Addiction, which is so easy for some to do.

This is a bad advise for gambling  beginners,  and for old disciplined people in the field of gambling, its not an advice at all, rather its just another irrational statement from an irrationally thinking personality. This is a  destructive teaching and I suggest OP gives a valid opinion to the group to pitas the right information across to these vulnerable and less informed people that will be middle by that single writeup.

In my opinion, many people have the wrong opinion about gambling, where many of them think that gambling will provide profits so that gambling becomes a source of income in life, and of course this is not true,  because what is clear is that people gamble with the aim of having fun. Even though they still experience losses that cannot be avoided,  especially if they use gambling as their main source of income, it will only cause them financial difficulties.

and many of them gamble but are not prepared for the losses that will occur, so many of them cannot accept the losses and make them addicted to gambling which is clearly detrimental to them financially, if they gamble they should be prepared for losses that result in losses their money. because gambling involves winning and losing but what you need to remember is the large chance of losing in gambling many of them are addicted to gambling,  so they dare to take action to borrow money to gamble again. which will only make them more difficult in life
It's true that most people think that gambling can provide benefits if you can use your skills correctly because most people think that gambling using skill can provide profit. Thats why people choose to gamble rather than work because their goal is to be able to double their money quickly without any effort even though in gambling with skill there is no guarantee of a definite win. Gambler are still faced with many losses and in fact any type of bet only has a small chances of winning.

Gamblers who have the goal of making a profit will not accept it if they experience defeat because their goal is to get what they expected from the start, if gambling does not give them what they expect then they will do thing that are detrimental to themselves such as borrowing money to get the money they need and try to return their initial capital, hopefully they can make a profit even though I think they will only be disappointed because in fact they will experience even bigger losses.

That's right, they should be able to realize that gambling cannot provide profitable wins quickly, and the steps taken are wrong where they don't choose to work but choose to gamble. Of course this is not right, if they don't work then they won't have income and if they are like that then gambling as a shortcut to making money is just a dream that is difficult to realize. because in my opinion, with them like that, it is very likely that they will only have problems with their own finances.

In my point of view at the beginning journey of gambling is fun but slowly it create addection on it. Those who we are gambler from long time we know that what type of feel we do when we don't gamble for long time. We feel anxiety hesitated. At the beginning it's look like nothing going to happened but slowly we feel that we are getting addected with it. My point of view is day by day slowly we are getting addected with with it.
