Topic: Who are the most vulnerable - page 3. (Read 2141 times)
The teenagers or those that enter into adoslescents are more prone to gambling. It's because they don't understand yet how it goes for one to earn money. They're all for the fun and games and when everything seems to show struggle, that's how they will just skip and do something else. They don't earn for a living yet and the money that they are gambling with are from their parents. With that, it's easier to spend money that you didn't worked for and this is on their case although their parents are doing the right thing in providing them some finances.
... And there should be a difference, if the player loses money, then common sense should stop him from such decisions.
Obviously, common sense tells everyone different things. And if he tells some to stop, then others obviously hear that it is necessary to recoup their losses. There is no other way to explain the fact that many players lose and spend their entire deposit.
You are right that the less privileged are theist vulnerable to gambling addiction because survival instinct will propel them onto doing things that they believe will change their condition and gambling come out as one with the potential of making it happen for them.
However, we cannot forget that there are some privileged people that are victim of addiction and who gambling was attributed as contributing to their problems. So addiction can happen to any type of person including the elites that gamble in Monaco

There is a social theory those who are rich and are also addicted to gambling are generally part of what it is called "new-rich", those who got their wealth not from hard work and discipline in investments, but rather from heritage, winning the lottery or other economical processes which can be translated to suddenly climbing up within the social scale.
Still I believe there is a direct correlation between the level of poverty and the willingness to engage in gambling games or betting in sports. Those extreme cases we see in the news about someone rich losing thousands, hundred of thousands or dollars in a single sessions are not the norm, but the exception to the norm.
Problem gambling affects any form of gambler who is not careful with his responsible strategies. It could be more dangerous to the rich than the poor. Because of the limitation of funds for the low income players. Although some go ahead to do illicit businesses to play games, it's not to be compared to how much money the rich would lose for playing compulsively. As they've got so much on their bankroll.
Only when it will be dangerous to the rich is if the rich is greedy , because you have already have alot of money what else do you want, because most people that actually play for fun are the rich , because they are not chasing after gambling wealth most time but rather as a means to while away time , but for the poor they take it as a means of getting financial freedom And stuff within a short period of time which is wrong because with that mindset things won't end well.
In a practical way I for sure will agree that it's not the influence of someone that will push you to gamble or to use a huge amount of money for the sake of your gambling, more on how you've been dominated by that kind of adrenaline inside you, especially if you are already deeply engage with it, and you are more likely aiming to win decent amount instead of having some fun.
Younger generation is prone to this as there are being sorrunded by people that are also involve to this society, at first it was because of curiosity but sooner or later it's because of addiction that unable to handle.
You can come to gambling in different ways, it doesn't matter with friends or by your own will, and the most important thing is to play responsibly and not allow addiction to arise. If you want to get adrenaline, then gambling is not the only way to get it, but perhaps it looks like an easy way, because you can get it right at home. And there should be a difference, if the player loses money, then common sense should stop him from such decisions.Younger generation is prone to this as there are being sorrunded by people that are also involve to this society, at first it was because of curiosity but sooner or later it's because of addiction that unable to handle.
Better to find that diversion instead of pushing for more if you feel that adrenaline inside you, addiction may arise as you keep giving way it will grow and grow to the point that you can't hold or control, same with what you said it's look easy but the reality it's not, it just keep pushing you to seek for more the kind of situation where younger minds are more prone on getting addicted to it, which will be needed a closer attention from their friends and love ones to help them avoid those unnecessary actions that they might do.

Yes, it can be said that these are people who are easily influenced by anything around them, when they see most of their friends continuing their education to college, they will also follow those steps but not accompanied by intention and sincerity so that in the end it only makes them waste money and time but do not get anything in terms of knowledge, meaning yes I can also confirm the core of your idea that people who are easily influenced by their environment are likely to be very easy to eventually be exposed to gambling when they are in an environment that is quite active towards gambling, it is quite unfortunate but yes, that is the fact.
Gambling has one of the most influences on people, people are going to gamble just because their friends are doing it so they do not be left out of the funs that they think their friends are having. It is because of gambling influences that we have high rate of underage gamblers losing money everyday to gambling and destroying their life because some of them get into debts that it takes a lifetime of working to pay off the debts and some can never pay them off therefore they continue to gamble in hopes of being lucky someday but it nevers happens. The environment that we stay has an Important role to play in our life therefore if you can keep your kids away from environment known to be filled with gamblers, please do to keep your kids safe.
On the other hand, yes you have said the right advice that this is the reason why we as parents really have to be able to choose or see the environment where our children play, I am sure as parents we will know about how to distinguish between good and bad environments for our children and that is what we have to do to prevent various unwanted things.
How about when and if the parents arent aware that their child is using VPN to access gambling sites that are banned in the country?
The truth of the matter is that, without casinos intervening in the issue of underaged gambling, parents will fail woefully because this duty is not something themselves alone can handle, the fight against underaged gambling is often a collective fight which will take the government of a country, the parents of the child, and the casinos to win..
And how does casinos fight against underaged ganbming? It's through the implementation of mandatory kyc, this is one of the ways to really make sure that users are not only gambling from area where gambling is permitted, but also that they qualify in terms of age; to gamble.
But unfortunately, and even till date, several gamblers still detest kyc for whatever reasons best known to our individuals selfs.
Let say those decentralised casinos have the right to use other means to discover underage, but then not all of them have the required liquidity to support some transactions, so we still have to banced back to centralised casinos.which the leav us with KYC at some level, .
The fight has underage gambling is not only for the casino but also the parents of the kid's because at some point it Their responsibility to take care of their ward's.

What we concern is the increasing number of children who gamble freely. We may see teenager playing gambling in some area without thinks about they are not allow that yet. And in a country that prohibit gambling, they even easily to playing gambling using their smartphone and use VPN to visit on the online casino.
For example, my country's idea, gambling is completely prohibited and rogue gambling sites are blocked and unofficial gambling and or outside gambling cannot be accessed except by using a VPN.

But when children or teenagers use a VPN to access gambling sites, this needs attention from parents so that as parents can supervise their children and not access gambling freely, because the impact will be very fatal and make them become gambling addicts.

On the other hand, it seems that talking and suggesting everything that looks good is always much easier than doing it, I understand that and I also admit that I am not entirely on the right path in treating gambling, sometimes I am also careless and do stupid things that should be avoided, but that's how humans are with nature and attitudes as social creatures, the point is there must be an intention to change and try to move forward in a better direction.
For example, my country's idea, gambling is completely prohibited and rogue gambling sites are blocked and unofficial gambling and or outside gambling cannot be accessed except by using a VPN.

The parents should instill the good values in life to combat this kind of activity as they can't watch them 24/7. If the kids know the right thing to do even without their parent's guidance, you won't get too agitated by the fact that you can't always watch them and know what they are doing outside without your supervision. With the technology that we have these days, one can easily access basically any app that they can install in their smartphones, hence, they are really very prone to this temptation. Would be quite a challenge for them to get away from this addictive type of entertainment.

As someone who lives in a low middle income country, I'd say that low income earners are the most vulnerable. In my estimation, low income earners are the target of gambling advertising and marketing. The specific type of gambling being sports betting. Casinos are not popular here so it's mostly bet shops online and offline that you find low income earners hanging around.
Another vulnerable group are those who have low education that is, those with high school diploma and lower. In addition to this group we have those who are single, divorced, or separated. Gambling will fill in the vacuum that loneliness has left.
And yet another group are those who are retired.
All these groups I have mentioned are not from any research publications but by simply observing them in my locality.
I agree that middle income countries i mean the third world countries people who are making low income are in a more vulnerable position to gambling addiction. Another vulnerable group are those who have low education that is, those with high school diploma and lower. In addition to this group we have those who are single, divorced, or separated. Gambling will fill in the vacuum that loneliness has left.
And yet another group are those who are retired.
All these groups I have mentioned are not from any research publications but by simply observing them in my locality.
And if we done a survey about that which categories peoples are more in the case of being addcited gambler then we will find that these people who have low earing those number will the be huge from the rich category or high earning people.
And here if I say the reason then the reason is very simple I won't go for any other reason that they are less educated or something else what I want to say here is that the population of rich people in the world is very less percentage and on the other hand the number of low earning people is several times more. So there is no reason to wonder that they are in the most vulnerable position for gambling addiction.
Gambling addicts suffer more than drug addicts because when someone is addicted to drugs, it becomes public because of which there is pressure from the family to come out of this addiction. But when someone is addicted to online gambling, even if it is revealed, he later gambles on hiddenbabe so in the end, he cannot get out of the addiction. A gambling addict can completely ruin a person and after ruining him financially, he gets involved in various types of illegal activities. Gambling tortured him a lot mentally during that time
You are joking right? Have you seen someone addicted to drugs and how they behave? I'm not sure if you have been to strick and ghetto but clearly, before you find one person that is homeless due t gambling, you will have found atleast 10 to 20 people that are homeless due to drug addiction. You will parent sent out their children's duty to drugs, the mafias and hooligans we have today are all a result of drugs and not because of addiction and it's very hard to leave.
If gambling addiction is real, trust me there wouldn't be gambling license and regulations, the government will clearly ban it and have everyone arrested instead of allowing it as a freedom for people that want it and you can see how government comfortably takes tax from the casino, you will never see them collect any money from drug use, instead you will be going to jail if you are caught doing it, that tells you the intensity of drugs compare to drug addiction.
I think one of the reasons is that money has become almost the main measure of success. I don't want to say that it wasn't like that before, it was, it's just that everyone didn't focus on it that much. Now there's some kind of money cult, where many talk about "successful success" and girls on the Internet announce to men what requirements they are ready to start talking to a man. Also, many single people are ready to bet everything they have, because they are bored or have nothing to lose. In general, considering all this, I would also recommend supporting those in our circle who need it.
You are right that the less privileged are theist vulnerable to gambling addiction because survival instinct will propel them onto doing things that they believe will change their condition and gambling come out as one with the potential of making it happen for them.
However, we cannot forget that there are some privileged people that are victim of addiction and who gambling was attributed as contributing to their problems. So addiction can happen to any type of person including the elites that gamble in Monaco

Well as a teenager and children, maybe environment can play a role but I don't believe adults will be easily carried away into what they don't want to do. There are people who have friends that are smokers but they don't smoke even a stick of cigarettes, also with those that find joy in drinking. So we can't generalized environmental factors as a sure inebriation to gambling. My point is parenting is important in a child's life. The child needs adequate care and attention from the family for them not to go astral.
This does not mean generalizing but for teenagers where the age of wanting to try something is quite large because of their curiosity, we must be aware that the temptation of environmental factors is one of the conditions that can make a difference, including for gambling because although there are certainly those who will not be affected, it is only a small proportion of those who are influenced.
Gambling has one of the most influences on people, people are going to gamble just because their friends are doing it so they do not be left out of the funs that they think their friends are having. It is because of gambling influences that we have high rate of underage gamblers losing money everyday to gambling and destroying their life because some of them get into debts that it takes a lifetime of working to pay off the debts and some can never pay them off therefore they continue to gamble in hopes of being lucky someday but it nevers happens. The environment that we stay has an Important role to play in our life therefore if you can keep your kids away from environment known to be filled with gamblers, please do to keep your kids safe.
