Why gambling is portrayed negatively almost everywhere?

[crwth]

Especially on country that banned gambling completely, it makes gambling portrayed negative. Also the bad effect of gambling is more bigger than the positive one.

Even to those countries that didn't banned gambling, some of the communities there are portraying gambling as negative and will bring bad luck to their family if one of their family member is doing the same thing.

I've heard a lot of tales and stories about it but I forgot where did the origin of those came from. But this is part of the culture, like in our society there are people who are pro into something and there are anti's so we can't really please everyone.

For sure, everyone here have heard their own positive and negative stories about gambling and have spread towards everyone. But the tendency of people to remember the negative one is greater compared to the positive one. It’s likely more impactful compared to the positive event. It’s mostly like that. Probably, it’s one of the factors towards the outlook of gambling.

I think it's because of there are more negative one instead of the positive one. I mean, busted gamblers always said i busted, fuck gambling, giving a negative vibe on gambling but profit gamblers never talk about their winning outside.

In my country, you can actually witness people not being able to eat because their father decided to gamble their money. I live in a third world country and people seem to be stuck in the idea that they can eventually win big from gambling. My neighborhood is full of gamblers as it's the traditional source of entertainment of most adults. Yes, they are able to win big from gambling sometimes. But that big win is nothing compared to how much they have lost from it in the past. They are mostly fishermen and whenever their earnings are good, they spend it all on booze and gambling. It's hard to not portray gambling is something not negative when you can see it, with your own eyes, affecting the people around you.

Yes, it is indeed possible to be a pro in gambling but it takes high intelligence, connections, and money. All of which most people do not have. Gambling is not like other tasks that if done repetitively, you slowly become good at it. The outcome of your bets do not rely on how much have you been playing or how much experience you have. In order to become a pro in gambling, you actually have to do your research. Gambling over and over again doesn't eventually make you a pro.

because people in out there don't see any positive from gambling itself, so they can judge contrary for the gambling. besides that, once people get involve in gambling games and they are often playing gambling, the chance for them to lose their money is bigger and they cannot recover it even if they using much money. and they are only losing more money without they realize and in the end, they will regret, and they can become stress because of losing the money in gambling games.

The facts are very burdensome for gambling. The number of people who suffer because of gambling is greater than the number of people who benefit from it. That is why gambling has been perceived badly by the public since long time ago.

The problem why many government does not allow is due to their country has many people who could not afford their 2 times meals and they are still nor fully developed. So if they start gambling then as a human behavior people will tend to go and play and lose the money. this will make many more poorer which will have the effect on economy.

I agree with you on that thing.

We tend to remember those bad moments that we've been with gambling and the positive ones has almost no impact if we are talking about it on the present. And there's just a tie up meaning to the word gambling whenever we are hearing it, I don't know where it all started.

You have a point. Government doesn't allow this stuff because it had a big imapact in economy of one counrty. Gamble can ruin someones lives, besides those who lost in gamble tend to play again and when they have no money they will borrow money until they can't able to pay. Few of them blame their government for being irresposible but the truth it is their fault. They banned it becuse government want them to have a better life. And that is my point of view.

yes, this is what we get if we are still playing gambling but unfortunately, many people don't realize about this. and they still playing gambling because they want to make a fast money in gambling but they cannot. in the end, they can lose everything without having a chance to recover their money. besides that, their life can be in trouble and they will suffer too for a long time.

yes I agree, many people assume that gambling cannot provide benefits for people who often do gambling itself, most gamblers can be considered as negative activities by society because gambling can affect factors that can aggravate the person's own attitude, for example if they gambling addiction, everything can be done to get money just to go gambling, many cases people are desperate to steal other people's goods because he needs money just to play gambling.

Hello Aviks,

I think the one-and-only critical factor is "scams" of some online gambling sites. Or shall I say most of the online casino sites? because, nowadays, it is really hard the trusted ones as a player or an affiliate.

Cheers

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?

[Fatanut]

What's funny is that a lot of addicts go to jail but not because their addictions are illegal. They go to jail for the acts that they do because of their addiction instead and the most common is stealing other people's stuff. First they take loans which they can easily get as they still have a good name in the eyes of the lenders. Then they sell their stuff either to repay the loan or to feed their addiction until they are left with nothing. I've always wondered how do adults end up in the streets when they were once professionals who can easily get a job. Turns out, it was because of their addiction. Even if they choose to fix their lives, it's already too late as they have so much loans to repay, have nowhere to go, and own nothing. And it snowballs at some point. A gambling addict can start having other addictions when introduced by a friend who's addicted in both gambling and drugs/drinks/cigarettes/sex.

Honestly these days I just see people, who are in constant state of blaming the government for their very own shameful acts, as dumb people. They are just looking for someone else to blame and the government can easily be that entity as others (other whiners) are agreeing with you. I see the government differently. I see them as something that keeps the world from things that you can't stop by your own such as crimes. I never rely to them as they are already doing enough in my opinion. You have to do your part as an individual and clearly those who got their lives ruined because of an addiction (gambling or any other form) then that's nothing but your fault. No matter what government they had, they would still do the same mistake as the government had nothing to do with it in the first place.
