Topic: Why there are so many people who get addicted on gambling? - page 5. (Read 1082 times)
That is a difficult question, there are some people that seem to be predisposed to getting addicted, they lack self-control and when they try something like gambling they are unable to stop themselves even when they know they should, then as time goes by and they lose more money they decide to keep gambling because they want to get their money back not realizing they will never be able to do that as the probabilities are against them, that is why whenever I gamble I consider my capital lost from the beginning that way I do not have any desire of chasing my losses.
These are the reasons in my own opinion why there are so many people who get addicted to gambling. First is, there is no denying that many people are very greedy and always find a way to earn quickly or taking money from people that result in scamming people of their money. Some are looking for earning quick money without scamming which is through gambling on a casino. Some people only want to satisfy themselves by gambling either for fun, thrill, passing time and more.
Because most people are unable to control themselves in gambling. IMO this is the main reason why many people are addicted to gambling. If people are able to have good self control, they wont be addicted to any addictive things (not only gambling).
Other reason could be "greediness". Feeling of never enough on everything they have, they earn or they get leads people into an addiction as well.

Because people are being introduced to gambling wrongly,they are thought that gambling can bring them Huge winning but it wasn’t told that the risk is there more than the chance of winning so the thing is when they gamble they seek for win but not accepting defeat.
But if we will only change the views of people about gambling from profiteering to Enjoyable?for sure the addicted people will be more lesser and may end up stoping .

It's a case to case basis some gambler become addicted without them knowing that they are taking things to much, they built a defense mechanism that no reasoning can force them to give up gambling if you don't have a good character, you will likely end up gambling a lot and develop an addiction to gambling.
Well that is the stupidity of gamblers for not accepting they are being addicted and also the family that surrounds them is not helping them to exit addicted . 
I can't speak for all the gamblers out there but I think the reason that they are addicted to gambling is because they are taking their chances of winning back more than what they lost. This mentality is the poison that feeds people to gamble away their money. The promise of a great fortune that will turn around once life is an enticing bait for people to do gambling.
In short, revenge gambling 
. They want to get back what they've lost but unfortunately, most of them lead to more losses and only few of them are getting back what they lost.When the gambler get back his lost in gambling, he will feel greedy therefore he will continue gambling since he felt that he is lucky at that time. Most of the gamblers are like this, they will gamble when they feel lucky and they don't know how to stop until such time that they will lost all of their money "AGAIN".
Money is the main reason why people like to gamble and take note, some of them want money in a quick way that is why they are gambling.
The same for the question on why gambling is addicting its because of the fact that we can earn money or become rich in snap if ever you hit the jackpot while enjoying the game. For some gamblers its a way to have fun but lets admit that most gamblers are playing to earn even it is risky or you can become addicted if you have no self control. Thats why having a limitation and fix capital to spend are needed to avoid ending up in a worse situation.
Why wouldn't they be? Once you got the taste of winning a large amount of money off of a single play, you'd also get addicted. It's a mindset of people who are largely in need of money after all. Most of the addicts can be clearly associated with that type, while the other would be just for pure enjoyment. Now, these type of people, most of them are actually rich/huge source of founds which makes their gambling lives a lot easier compared to the former ones, and at the same time, is a lot easier to remove them from addiction.
I read a book titled " A subtle art of not giving a fuck". Some might have read this and really, addicts can be placed on some of the situations here. Like in the start, where we keep chasing what we don't have, which really just emphasizes our desires and the like. This gives off the depressed-ish atmosphere around us, leading our life to sunk more and more into that kind of life.

Many people have become addicted in gambling is because it is entertaining and at the same time you can earn good money with it, but the bad side of it is you could lose all of your money if you didn't control yourself from playing. Before you turn into playing gambling you should have limitations because not everyday you could gain back all of your losses and it will not be fun anymore if you always lose.
Yeah! right, this is the reason why many people who are addicted to gambling is some poor person. because they make it a habit like on every occasion they just want to bet on it. almost every games out there have some betting activity. But those who are contented on their little income will not get affected by the gambling temptation. That easy win will make you a big loss later if you don't know how to stop yourself.
I know that there are gamblers who play because of fun and entertainment, but actually there are so many ways for us to make ourselves entertained without even losing our money.
The excitement of gambling will not let you think about quitting it or taking a short break and this must be the reason why gamblers are sticking within gambling whereas there must be at least hundreds of easier (not frustrating) and free of cost entertainment ways are available for them still they are continuing their gambling.When you are capable of realizing why we must seek entertainment/profits from gambling only then probably you will never get addictions to it. Only for the gamblers who are not taking time to realize for what they are doing/ how to gamble/ how not to gamble, getting addicted. I mean people who gamble for entertainment and for profit making getting addicted as well when they not do self-evaluations time to time.
But anyway, I can not judge and blame all those people because we are all different, we have different story in life.
But I believe we can bring all the gamblers into one simple template like they do start gambling for entertainment and then they will turn as a profit seeking gamblers and then they will start hunting for recovering their losses then slowly they will get addicted. This is how I believe 90% of gamblers are doing so there may not be different stories for most of them. Not all people were able to manage themselves perhaps due to problems, they can afford to lose, or they are just bored; we don't know. We can't bear them them to stop what they are doing but we can encourage them to just gamble with moderation.
The only reason I think of why they continue to gamble despite of all circumstances is because of money 
. I don't believe if they tell me that their reasons are like what you've said. Having problems? Hmm, maybe that's a valid reason because they can serve it as their gateway of forgetting their problems for the meantime. But saying they are just bored or even the fact they can afford to lose, nah! It's a very insane move and no one (with right mentality) would ever do this. Gambling is everything especially for those what we called compulsive gamblers or those addict on gambling, but it made me realize, why they get so addicted in gambling?
The temptation gambling gives is extensively extreme in a way that if you doesn't know how to handle it nor it's your first time to gamble you'll end up losing unless you belong to small probability of winners in gambling. Not all people were able to manage themselves perhaps due to problems, they can afford to lose, or they are just bored; we don't know. We can't bear them them to stop what they are doing but we can encourage them to just gamble with moderation.
It's a case to case basis some gambler become addicted without them knowing that they are taking things to much, they built a defense mechanism that no reasoning can force them to give up gambling if you don't have a good character, you will likely end up gambling a lot and develop an addiction to gambling.
I knew that because i have some friends that i for.me they are already addicted but for them?no they are totally denying that reality and telling that it is just a habit and to kill boredom.reserved
What are you reserving?is this a campaign application? Why need to reserve the post when you cam post even in the next days to come?sorry but i find this unethical for.posters since you cannot pause anyone to make their own comments here. Gambling is everything especially for those what we called compulsive gamblers or those addict on gambling, but it made me realize, why they get so addicted in gambling? if gambling can be the reason for them to lost their money, properties, relationship to family and friends, mental health and physical health. I know that there are gamblers who play because of fun and entertainment, but actually there are so many ways for us to make ourselves entertained without even losing our money.
But anyway, I can not judge and blame all those people because we are all different, we have different story in life.
Gambling is very entertaining and one of source of earnings of other people, and I think that is enough reason for them to be addicted on gambling, we are all here in this world because of money, well money is power we all know that thing, and one of the reason of the gamblers why they are betting is because of the money that they may have on it. But anyway, I can not judge and blame all those people because we are all different, we have different story in life.
But for me, gambling is really not advisable because it may destroy your life, if you get so addicted on it, you may lose your time on your family and friends because of being focused on gambling.

For some, it's the thrill. For others, it's the rush of what if. Some even gamble to try and reap huge profits. Go on youtube and look up people who run $25 - $100 bets on casino slots. It's insane. They'll run through 10k like it's nothing, put another 10k in, and hit a 100k rack. Gambling is profitable for the lucky ones. Others have a problem or just money to blow. Whether it is a few bucks, or a few hundred thousand. It's ultimately entertainment. It's a rush like no other. Adrenaline on demand for some people.
They got addicted mainly because of one reason and that is because of money. We all want a money or easy money rather. In gambling you have the chance to turn your penny into a decent amount in a short period of time. Although the chances of winning is very low, gamblers still take a risk because they are short of money, maybe they want more or maybe both. Others choose gambling because they have no where to go to make more money and gambling is their only option.
Because most of them are desperate to gain easy money and since they are hooked in gambling there is no way that they can just easily get out of the situation.
This is a hard part but the truth is that even they only have limited money still they will gamble it for another chance and that is what we must prevent to happen because once we become addicted in gambling the more chance that we lose everything even our family and if baddest our life may Gone as well because there are many suicides happening from gambling addict.

I can't speak for all the gamblers out there but I think the reason that they are addicted to gambling is because they are taking their chances of winning back more than what they lost. This mentality is the poison that feeds people to gamble away their money. The promise of a great fortune that will turn around once life is an enticing bait for people to do gambling.
Besides that, they don't have strong control when they play gambling, so that makes them spend more time just because they expect to get a win in the next rounds. But the fact, it is difficult to win the gambling games if we don't have luck while the luck itself will not always come to us. People slowly become addicted to gambling without they realize because they can get excited in the gambling games itself, and that is the way for them to lose their money.
Winning back for what they lost is another reason for them to come back to the gambling places, but they never learn that will only give them the way to get addicted in the long term.

many people are addicted to gambling because in my opinion gambling can get a lot of profit quickly without having to wait for rising coin prices as happened at the exchange place.
so that until now gambling has become a favorite for many people to grow their assets.
