It's not a negative way of earning , gambling is more like a easy sort of way for making quick cash and the chances of making that is possible but the problem is within the people who use this method , most of them do make profit but because of there greed they continue to gamble and lose it all. This is why many consider it to be negative otherwise there are many ways to make money from gambling

Definitely right mate. Many have understood the existence of gambling when the real purpose of it is to give pleasures and entertainment to people. But because gambling gives us quick money that is why people tend to gamble to gain more without thinking that there is no way to always win in gambling and most of the time gamblers losses. And because they tend to bring back what they’ve lose, it ended up with more losses.

I don't you guys are getting the point here, most of the people are saying that gambling is a negative way of earning money is because the majority of the players who plays in gambling is losing most of the time, they wouldn't say negative about gambling if they are winning. Also, you couldn't say that you are having fun and entertainment if you are losing your money, again only those people who are winning on gambling would say positive things about gambling.

It is basically misconception about bitcoins and gambling. If someone really says that people are earning bad money from bitcoins and good money from gambling, he must be admitted in mental hospital where intense care should be given to him. So that his mind can revive the real aspects. This all is just obvious that people have got amazing life styles from bitcoins and earned big money.

If you make a survey among the list of gamblers, you'll find almost 90% of them have list while the 10% have won the lost amount of the rest. This makes people portray gambling in the negative manner and the next this is the addiction. If one has entered into gambling activities, soon he won't come out even when he's experiencing continued loss which is completely due to the addiction.

This is a good observation. As long as a person is making good profit from gambling, he will speak good about it. But if he starts making loss, he will start criticizing the practice and gambling related websites.

This applies everywhere even with bitcoin investment. People who made good money with crypto praised it among friends. When prices crashed from $20000 to half, they started calling it a bubble.

This is the nature of every single human being and one can do nothing about it because it can never ever be changed. When the person is getting profit from some means, he doesn’t put any question on his source because he is getting paid from it but when he is not satisfied with that source, he starts speaking negative things about that source forgetting all goods he accessed from it.

Gambling portrayed negatively almost everywhere it is because gambling had ruin so many lives already as human who easily get addicted to play and taking the risk even it is the last money in the wallet some will still trying their luck to win and unfortunately even how good your skills is you ended as a loser.
Gamblers think that they can easily earn money in gambling but that is wrong, I think gambling created for entertainment or as a pass time not for earning money.

It is portrayed negatively because plenty of people lives got destroyed for being an gambling addict. And instead of doing it for entertainment others make it as a source of income which is very impossible, it makes other people greedy that leads them doing bad things just to get money to sustain their gambling addiction.

Indeed, I also know some people who became addicted that they even used their savings for their own family to bet that leads to conflict within the family. There are also people who successfully manage their greed so I think it still depends on a person but majority of the gamblers are still suffering from addiction that's why it is portrayed negatively.

I am not a veteran in this gambling industry so trying to understand what majority of the people thinks about it.

I have seen a lot of threads in this section as well as in other online forums which always protrayes gambling as a negative line of earning money online. I have seen people comparing gambling with alcohol addiction. I have seen people actively trying to discourage others from getting into gambling industry. What's wrong with gambling?

It is just another business and also legal in many countries. People who buys lottery tickets are also gambling only.

In trading industry, you bet on your speculation and in gambling industry, you bet on your luck. In both trading and gambling, there is a risk of loosing money. So why trading is seen as a good way of making money and exactly opposite for gambling?

I belive it is just a social taboo about gambling and we need to rethink our stand towards gambling. It is just another legal business. What's your view?

The reason why gambling is portrayed negatively almost everywhere because gambling do not have any good advantages when you started playing it, gambling is a bad influence or disadvantages that it can lead you to extreme addiction to it that is why many people wouldn't want to try to play gambling.

It was introduced for seeking pleasure and have some entertainment in short intervals but the people have made it an insane thing that’s why everyone feels uncomfortable while discussing this gambling among people. I think gambling is portrayed negatively almost everywhere because the stories related to it that we hear every day are very dreadful and ends like this are not entertained by anyone.

Gambling is something not good for anyone of us and that it only results in loss of money. It is just like an addiction of alcohol or any other drug and the one who gets into find it very much difficult to get rid of this curse and at the end, he is only left with regret as he has lost all his money in gambling while trying to make some good earning. We all need to make ourselves understand this thing that there is nothing good in gambling.

I don't see any benefits of gambling aside from entertainment and fun. Aside from that, there are more consequences that you need to face like gambling addiction, Lose of money and probably lost of funds, family and assets. Gambling has been portrayed negatively because many people are losing here and they are saying negatives things to anybody. People who lose in gambling will share bad experiences if they lose then the DOMINO EFFECT will happen. More and more will say negatives to gambling that is why it has been portrayed negatively.

That's just one part of the story and not the complete one. I understand and agree that gambling addiction is not good and a lot of people have lost money for their gambling addiction. However, there are people who have won big in gambling and secured their future. Even though they are less in numbers, but they exists. If you are continuously loosing money in gambling, you must leave the game and never come back because not everyone is considered as winner. People loose money and majority of the gamblers understand the risk of gambling. Why blaming the entire industry for that?

Yes, gambling is always considered negative everywhere. because gambling a short way to make money and remove money and negative reasons because it can cause addictive effects that can harm himself. being an addict is a bad thing and hard to get rid of and his life will be ruined. but gambling is difficult to remove because although it is prohibited to play it and supported by the environment that supports it.
The bottom line is that gambling is negative because gambling will damage itself and will eliminate what you have

Well let us not lump it all on gambling because there are other forms of trading that are addicting and can cause you to loose a lot of money the same way. I agree that gambling is addictive but that's why it's a choice just like forex trading or even the stocks and so singling it out and portraying it as something negative isn't fair to me and those that go on that tangent often don't understand gambling or have suffered somehow from addiction.

Gambling is always portrayed negatively ever since from the old times and even in the bible it was always said that gambling is not a moral activity, but for me there is nothing wrong with gambling, its just an amusement and maybe it only becomes wrong if the money we used to bet is compromised and there is much more intended to use perhaps for family and leaving all responsibilities for our love ones just to gamble.

Stock trading can be labeled as gambling as well but it has been polished even though it's almost the same thing it's just an educated guessing at best. Gambling when done with restraint is a fun game just like any other but some people just go overboard and then eventually loses everything.

Well, i think it is not really the gambling itself that is the problem but the gamblers. I think because gambling has destroyed lives of many individuals. Many couple separated because their spouse was addicted to gamblng, sold their properties, been burried in debts and when a gambler court a woman the first reaction the gambler gets is he is rejected by the woman’s family because he is a gambler.

I couldn't agree the more, we often judge gambling by the lifestyle of some irresponsible gamblers or people who were seen to be gambling carelessly and to me it's unfair because there are some fine sports bettors i know around who are very responsible and disciplined when it comes to selecting their games and in their private lives as well.

Yes, there are people who make money through controlled bets on a controlled basis. It is not a bad thing to have fun and make money. Not the same person who plays the bet every month with the player who bets every day.

yeah, it is really not a bad thing to make some winnings from gambling and have some fun as well, but it is a bad thing to expect to make those winnings from gambling or like you called it, make money !

Anyone who wants to make money should go and invest and it is this mentality that apparently makes the act of gambling a negative thing because people set their mind for the wrong reasons and instead of trying to see the main picture, they just end up getting the wrong one and then becoming addicted. Hence, this brings about the negativity that surrounds gambling.

Making some winning from gambling is a bad thing because when the person starts winning in gambling, no matter what amount he is winning in it he would become addict to it and this is the point where his life starts destroying because he forgets everything in his life in front of gambling and makes gambling his aim of life. However playing just for fun is not a bad thing though.

i dont think trading is addicting you can lose your money but not fast as gambling it can just disappear in few seconds and with trading you can still exit without losing all of your money. gambling is addictive but you can still control yourself even your an gambling addict if you cant control yourself then you have some problems, i dont think people see trading as negative its more like an investment if they see it in a negative view they dont want you to trade.
