Topic: Who are the most vulnerable - page 5. (Read 3649 times)

I have always adviced people who get angry after a session to completely quit gambling and move onto other activities, though. To me it defeats the purpose of gambling if one gets angry to losing money and does not get thrill and excitement from the session. It is like paying for getting frustrated and sad, simply pointless.
Also, there have been indeed people who have gotten rich from partaking in gambling, you can know because those big wins are highly advertised by casinos and lotteries, so they can attract the attention of more gamblers or possible gamblers.

There is a good reason why lotteries like always set up a little party and show when they hand over the a giant check to the fortunate lottery winner.

If someone becomes angry after a session and determined to beat the house, they cannot do it. In such a scenario, people lose more due to their mindset. Poor people become homeless if they carelessly continue to play while rich people can get broke as well.

because we rarely find poor people who become rich, what happens is the opposite, rich people can become poor and the poor get poorer.

Those who can prevent all of that and those who can control the risk of gambling are themselves in handling gambling, rich people must be able to position themselves as ordinary gamblers and not get too carried away in pleasure and poor people can control themselves not to have the goal of changing their fate in just an instant through gambling because we rarely find poor people who become rich, what happens is the opposite, rich people can become poor and the poor get poorer.

Rich or poor people can be vulnerable to gambling because gambling can gives much pleasure to them especially if they want to make money from gambling. If they can not handle themselves with carefully, that will be a matter of time they will gets addicted to gambling because they become vulnerable to gambling without seeing a way out from there. Many people lose their money in gambling but they can prevent that things before that becomes bigger so they will not vulnerable to gambling like other people.

Those people who lose their minds because of gambling will not think much and only want to playing gambling. Yes, they become more interested in gambling without thinks the risks that can become bigger. We don't know how to help them who start become addicted to gambling because they don't tell anything to us so we can not do anything. More people will become susceptible to addiction especially if they can not take care of themselves and only want to chase the win.

If they really want to avoid addiction, they must not playing gambling too often and use limitation. They must have many things to do to distract their minds from thinking about gambling. If you don't get addicted to gambling, you need to take care yourself because the temptation can become big and make you addicted easily.

In my opinion, gambling is not only targeting poor people at this time because many rich people also gamble not to find more money but just for entertainment. They also don't realize that they have spent a lot of money while gambling because they enjoy it too much, in fact, many gamblers go bankrupt, initially they did not think that gambling would make them bankrupt, until finally their lives become simple but they can still live even though they have to be different from their previous lives, different from poor people, they will be even more disadvantaged, some even sell valuables and end up homeless, in this case, poor people are indeed the ones who are more disadvantaged.

In addition, gambling can affect the minds of its players, allowing them to become more interested in gambling, so it is not surprising that many become addicted to gambling to the point of losing quite a large amount of money. Also, in my opinion, there is no specific benchmark for who will be more susceptible to addiction, poor or rich people have the same chance of addiction.

The thing to note to avoid addiction is to be able to establish discipline and this can be done by rich or poor people, depending on themselves who have what kind of views on gambling. If indeed the view on gambling is a way to make money, then addiction can be a definite consequence.

Correct just a matter of time if they have that misconception about gambling, it's not a venue for quick money making, but the opposite if you are not careful with your budget, everyone can suffer and there's no exemptions as gambling carried risk behind, people who are not capable in controlling their emotions are vry vulnerable in getting hook to it to the certain point that they've gonna be addicted and unable to resist, till they already lose everything that they've got.

Gambling addiction can affect people of all ages, regardless of where they live or their financial situation. Many teenagers are now wiser than graying elders because they have a huge knowledge base in front of them, so I think that talking about specific groups of people who are more susceptible to gambling addiction is not quite right. The tendency to addiction depends very much on the psychological profile of each individual. And in fact it is difficult to determine which person will become gambling addicted and which will not before the addiction begins to show the first signs.

Gambling is a lot easier to access now than before. So it is no surprise if more people find themselves gambling. Unfortunately, not a lot of us can be responsible enough to prevent ourselves from falling into deep addiction. This probes the question, who are the most vulnerable to falling into a gambling addiction?

We already know that less privileged people are more prone to getting addicted to gambling with the involvement of financial reward. They are the ones chasing more wins because they actually need the money. The more money they get, the deeper they get into the addiction.

Another demographic that is more likely to get addicted to gambling are adolescents. Adolescents are aged 12-18. The rise of online casinos made way to more kids getting access into gambling. It is said that male adolescents are the ones most recorded to have ended up addicted in gambling. Their addiction is usually associated with sports  and mobile games betting.

Lastly, the most vulnerable to falling into a gambling addiction are those already suffering from pre-existing mental conditions. About 4% of people being treated for substance use also have gambling disorder, as do nearly 7% of psychiatric inpatients and up to 7% of people with Parkinson’s disease. An estimated 96% of people with gambling problems have at least one other psychiatric disorder.

I am sharing this to raise awareness so more people are aware whether they fall under these categories I mentioned and may have high chances of becoming a gambling addict. Let’s keep ourselves informed and in check. Not only ourselves but our loved ones as well.

If someone cannot be completely stress-free while gambling, then he will not be able to gamble properly. There are many poor gamblers who borrow money when their own money is lost and gamble so much that they do not realize that their gambling is addictive or not at a normal level. In such cases, the normal sense of gamblers does not work until they lose all their money. Gambling sites pay special attention to such gamblers so that they can gain more money. Such gamblers gamble more and lose more. Such poor gamblers can gamble more than many rich gamblers.

Rich or poor people can be vulnerable to gambling because gambling can gives much pleasure to them especially if they want to make money from gambling. If they can not handle themselves with carefully, that will be a matter of time they will gets addicted to gambling because they become vulnerable to gambling without seeing a way out from there. Many people lose their money in gambling but they can prevent that things before that becomes bigger so they will not vulnerable to gambling like other people.

That's right, it doesn't matter whether they are poor or rich because the target of gambling itself is to attract people who are very interested in gambling and cannot manage their risks so that the casino feels that they are benefiting from people who are vulnerable to gambling, rich people and poor people have different goals, poor people want to get money more easily and rich people enjoy their pleasure in gambling too much and over time it makes them bankrupt, there are many cases of gamblers who go bankrupt due to excessive gambling.

In my opinion, gambling is not only targeting poor people at this time because many rich people also gamble not to find more money but just for entertainment. They also don't realize that they have spent a lot of money while gambling because they enjoy it too much, in fact, many gamblers go bankrupt, initially they did not think that gambling would make them bankrupt, until finally their lives become simple but they can still live even though they have to be different from their previous lives, different from poor people, they will be even more disadvantaged, some even sell valuables and end up homeless, in this case, poor people are indeed the ones who are more disadvantaged.

Gambling will not look at age, gender and also poor or rich, anyone who wants to gamble can do it but I think we should be able to apply limits so as not to get caught up in addiction, if we look at the current situation in society, gambling is actually more targeted at the poor today, because most of those who are rich are more dominant in choosing to invest and spend their money on more positive things, Although it cannot be denied that there are some of them who also gamble, as you said, poor people often gamble because they want to change their fate while those who are rich are only thinking more about just looking for entertainment in casinos, but precisely when we make gambling an excuse to seek wealth,  often the opposite happens we actually get poorer because of gambling.

That's right, it doesn't matter whether they are poor or rich because the target of gambling itself is to attract people who are very interested in gambling and cannot manage their risks so that the casino feels that they are benefiting from people who are vulnerable to gambling, rich people and poor people have different goals, poor people want to get money more easily and rich people enjoy their pleasure in gambling too much and over time it makes them bankrupt, there are many cases of gamblers who go bankrupt due to excessive gambling.

All people are vulnerable with gambling but that will depends on how they can treat gambling.

Anybody can get addicted to gambling. rich or poor. Anybody who gambles is vulnerable and those who gamble frequently are more vulnerable. I think I understand that those with other psychiatric disorders are the ones most prone to gambling, but every who gambles is vulnerable.

I don't believe the less privileged are more vulnerable than the rich. In my opinion, there's a higher chance of a rich person becoming an addict because the rich have the money to gamble while the poor don't. A rich person can just keep gambling while he's losing money and not mind at all because there's more where that came from and that could lead to addiction, but a poor person doesn't have that privilege
