In as much as we are liable for our own mistake, we need to gamble responsibly. We don't have to always put blames on people that have shown us games to bet on and at the end we notice the game ended with loses. We need to act responsibly and take all blames we ought to take rather casting it in others. There is money to be made in gambling so we don't have to keep blaming people for our loss. Addiction in gambling is real so we don't have to do like we know nothing about it. Even though we are desperate to make money, we still  have to be responsible to make something from the market.

Gambling is supposed to be a game of fun but unfortunately a lot of persons take it to be a source of finance which is logically wrong. Yes gambling arguably can be tempting to be a source of income especially when you tend to make multiple wins consecutively which could make one feel the need to take more days off work since you have become richer at an easier pace. The core reason people should not take gambling as a financial source is because people tend to be very serious when it comes to their finance which of course us their main income source.
Now if gambling becomes a source of income you will tend to gamble more so logically you could win more and most of the time this could end badly and even lead to a nasty addiction in some cases.

I had a friend in the gambling circle,he was gambler addicted person over a year.I had advised him many times,but he is not ready to accept my advice in the gambling.Apart from gambling,my friend accept my advice without any hesitation.When I had a time on weekend,I get a chance to meet him in personal.I had some question about his gambling addiction,but the sad part is he is not accepted his gambling addiction towards the gambling site.

He said that he had nearly 64k dollars as a loss in the gambling site.In order to recover that 64k dollars,he keeps on betting from all his economic resources.I had advice him to use only 20 percentage of salary to get away from entire gambling loss.But he is now repeating the same 100 percentage of income from weekly,biweekly and monthly.So he was in the big loan problem.Still he is arranging funds from loan to play gambling,because he think that the recovery was possible at the place where he lost his money.What will be your suggestion for my friend to recover from the gambling addiction.

When we talk about religion we cannot dine the forbidden things like alcohol, prostitution and many other things in this topic we will discuss why do gambling is forbidden (Haram, interdit) .
So can you tell me why is it forbidden in your religion?
And for the non religious persons what you think ?

It only goes to the point being discussed here for excessive and impulsive gamblers because they don't know when they should stop, so even if they are losing constantly, they still keep going until they reach the point where they exhaust all their accounts and lose everything they had which is when they start hating themselves for doing that, but there is no point in having this hatred because what has been done cannot be undone and you have to live with it now.

This is why everyone needs to think it through before making any decision, especially when it comes to financial decisions because if you make a wrong decision and lose your money on something useless, you will not be able to forget it and you will hate yourself for making that decision when you realize it.

Yes as I said above that even though they have a fairly responsible personality in real life but honestly I really wouldn't fully believe that they could be a responsible person if they were involved in gambling activities, this is another thing that raises another speculation and I have already mentioned my disbelief when they are involved in gambling. Gambling is a place that will have a bad impact on irresponsible people and gambling can also be a trap for those who are basically responsible in real life.

All the ideas that I said before that lead to preventive measures are all none other than my own experience, before that I once asked one of my friends who had already gambled to teach me how to gamble, he asked me "are you sure you want to get involved in gambling, think carefully" and I instantly said "Yes", and after that I was really in a bad situation where I lost balance in my finances which in the end I really realized that I shouldn't have asked my friend to teach me how to gamble, Although I don't blame them but still the bad impact is really felt by me and this is the reason why I really will never promote or teach someone to gamble, it is too risky especially for beginners who are really new to this activity or the elderly who should enjoy their old age with fun that does not involve risk.

I don't waste too much time gambling, maybe I'm someone who gets bored easily, usually I play only 30 minutes and a maximum of 1 hour, I don't last long in gambling, but I once spent almost 3 hours gambling because the game was exciting

Don't try to recover it, that's an even bigger mistake than being violent because the more you try to recover your lost money, the more money you will lose and that will keep making you more frustrated and angry over time which isn't a good thing. The best practice is to not take gambling too seriously and not have a lot of expectations because we know that when you expect something and it doesn't happen, you become disappointed and sad.

When you don't take gambling too seriously and have no expectations of winning a lot of money from it, you will find it easier to let go of the losses and you will have no remorse over time. I know it's not easy for everyone since most people don't have enough patience, but there is nothing wrong with trying.

I see these types of videos all the time. It used to make a bigger impact when TVs weren’t given away for opening checking accounts.  Now, the price of TVs have fallen so low, destroying a TV isn’t really a sign you’re rich or angry, so much as it is a sign that you’re an idiot that can’t control your behavior.

No matter how interesting the bet booking game is "winning most of the games'', I can't try the mistake of buying a playing game bet from someone with a high amount. I will advise the person to go for cash out instead of buying the bet from the person.

If the person doesn't want that(cash-out), let them quietly wait patiently for their bet game to finish playing rather than selling it to me at a high cost, like whatever comes out from the bet, I should accept it with my fate, not them been bold enough to accept or wait for their win or loses to their bet games

All these points of yours are only possible when someone isn't addicted to gambling yet. Quitting or refraining from gambling for an addict its very difficult because his sense are already sold into the gambling habit and he's totally absorbed. Quitting for an addict is a miracle or when in serious lack and his senses someone comes back, instead, he continues in his helpless condition until God know when.

For a newbie in gambling like you, I reprimand you for counting on gambling, listen and listen well, gamble responsibly and never be expectant from gambling because its the express way to addiction. Many of us that have gone that road wouldn't even wish it for our enemy talkless of a friend and I view you as one. gambling addiction is a very bad thing to experience as it leaves you a shadow of yourself and with lots of regrets at the long run

That is how gamblers are, foolish. We gamble like we don't treat it like business, so we fully rely on luck, and if we feel lucky, we love to push our luck to maximize our winning. I think we can only think of limiting our losses but on winnings, we can't do that as we want to win more and more, and that's the reason why gamblers losses in the long run because we push our luck so hard until we reach to the level that ran out of it already.

We always love to take a higher risk, if we lose then we lose, seize the moment as they say.

I think it's normal to think to win back our losses and finally on a profit. However, if the decision to sell a properly is not well thought, that's considered a bad strategy in gambling as it does not normally work. The problem is when the emotion is high, we want to win it all back instantly which will not happen most of the time since gambling is based on luck and skills of a player, with not thinking the right way, then we cannot expect a profit.

If professional gamblers wins in the long run, they experience the ups and downs in gambling until they succeed, they we aren't exempted. The problem is we don't want to go through the process as we don't trust it.

When talking about good gambling management, this is not talking about how many and big wins we get from the gambling we do. but about how capable we are of minimizing the level of losses experienced and also preventing the negative impacts of gambling itself. Behind the pleasure we get when gambling, gambling is an activity that carries a fairly high risk of financial loss, and other things such as addiction as well as the domino effect of gambling addiction itself. And therefore, it is very important to continue to monitor these activities well and always apply budget limits and playing time. And by doing this, it is hoped that we can avoid everything that is a negative impact of gambling.

Women are more emotional than men in nature, I believe that women will be more easier to control in gambling, because most of them can't handle defeat, when they lose a lot of money they know how to retreat, men will still choose to push forward, but women will run.


I know that women do fall into gambling addiction too, but I know like five males that are victim to addiction in gambling and only 1 female that's a gambling addict, this to me shows that men become more addicted to gambling than women.

Women don't like taking a lot of risks like men are used to, especially in things that have everything to do with luck only, and the very few women that are into such things are been stamped with names, people will call them women like men.

This discussion came out when a friend told me that he planned to move out of the country if he happened to win the biggest post in the lottery at that time the lottery pot was almost $2 million in our currency, he then asked me where is the best place in the world to moved in case he wins a lottery,

So I check the internet for the best place and I stumble this article

The Best Places to Move When You Win the Lottery

So if you happen to win an equivalent of $2 million in your currency, will you move out of the country, from the article I posted and the poll I created from where country you would like to move to in case you win $2 million, you also have the option to stay in your country and why?

I prefer to stay in my country, because the living cost is very cheap here in my country, $2 million is very much enough for all my family up to three generations and I can even help my country by setting up businesses.

In my personal life, I use my money more for other needs than gambling, as much as possible I save my expenses and can still save so that if there is an urgent need I can use the money and don't need to borrow from other people, in my gambling life, I I don't dare to take risks that are greater than my ability, even though I gamble, I only use less money because if I use more money and lose then I will regret it because I know how hard it is to make money so it's better to use gambling as I can.

Your story reminds me of my friend, when my friend didn't have enough money but he was willing not to eat just because he wanted to gamble until finally the money just disappeared and he had to endure hunger all day and in his daily life he was not luxurious and frugal. , this can be said to be careless because gambling is not something that can double our money even if we dare to take risks.
Don't harm yourself just because of gambling, limit your expenses in gambling, because it is better to use your money for other things that are more useful than taking big risks when gambling.

Selling your owned properties and gambling is a bad thing, of course, but selling someone else's property and using that for gambling is the worst thing one can do because you can't expect to win all the time from gambling and when you lose, you will be in extreme shock, fear, and anxiety because you have to face the person and tell them about what happened, and this fear is the reason why you would never want to face them again, at least not very soon.

I have never sold anything to fuel my gambling activities because I know it will only have negative consequences and I don't want to increase the problems of my life by doing that. It is a blessing if you have a job and can take care of your family with respect and grace, just gamble if you can spare a buck or two, and don't put yourself under too much pressure.

As you guys don't know each other properly so it won't be wise to start conversation with him directly about his gambling. He may feel uncomfortable when a stranger randomly start advising him! And if a person can go to casino for playing slot machines, then i assume he already have knowledge about sport betting too. So he may play slot machines for fun even it is also possible that, he isn't regular in gambling.you still don't have the actual information at all. So whatever you can do, just frankly start talking with him if you are excited enough. And then you may ask him about his opinion about gambling and if he does gambling or not. Thus you can discuss with him and let him know about your opinion, rather than advising him directly
