Does your family past incidents effect you?

[Oilacris]

Yes i am also, have uncle addict in gambling. From what was originally a millionaire is now a rough-handed worker in an iron factory. When i tried to gamble, he rebuked me. He said: "I saving you, doesn't want to fall poor like me and enough me, not my nephew."

This is the perfect example of how gambling can destroy the dreams or your present scenario and make your future in a dark. This happens when you do gamble for money and now for entertainment and enjoy the game. If people understood the difference between the 2 things it will be more valuable for them to gamble at times only.

I believe it does not matter whether you gamble to make profit or gamble to have fun.  What matters is how you control yourself while playing.  Indeed it is the moderation and self discipline that matters.  having full control of yourself during the game will difinitely saves us from being addicted to gambling.  Though I believe previous family incident have nothing to do or effect wether you will have control to yourself or not.

Past family incidents would somehow give you some impressions or thoughts which can possible be applied on how you do treat out gambling on how you do engage with it and as you said all things should be on moderation specially on handling out yourself towards gambling.We do know the effects if we do let ourselves on too much engagement with it will surely put us on negative situations.

Hi, i have a question for my gambler's buddies as i'm perplexed by this. I have a friend who really wishes to gamble, but he is not allowed to because his uncle lost his entire assets and some million's and his grandfather to lost another million or so (they're filthy rich). So due to this facts he is barred from gambling, they believe he'll loose money to, they're stopping him on past incidents and i'm really tired of explaining them they're wrong, what do you'll think, anyone else faces such issues?

Will in im not faces this kind of situation or experience in my entire life  of being probihited to due such gambling games,such like  your friends but, my advise of that is better that he never test  to do a gambling and still continue to be barred,than you will regrets in your entire life,why should you  learn how to gamble,because for me  gambling is like an addiction and temptation that always pop up your mind,therefore before you regret dont just try it even a little just like this saying"prevention is better than cure".

Those kinds of issues really does affect the current decision of a family. With the situation you have given, the issue involves such amount that is very important- millions, so we can not remove the fact they they will be afraid to happen that again. Next, instances like that may happen again. As the saying goes, the history repeats itself.

[piloder]

Nobody in my family have ever lost big amount in gambling so there is no any kind of ban on gambling, we are not filthy rich so everybody in our family are just chasing for money to have brighter future and all of they afraid to try gambling including myself.

If your buddy have cash lying around which other family members don't have any idea about than he can still gamble and loss all of it.

I think you friends family is afraid that he will end up like his uncle and grandfather. What happened to them served as a learning experience to them so much as they want they dont want any family member to involve in gambling ever which is very understandable.

[denny27]

I think anyhow on gambling., it depends on the luck of each people, and I think that of course the luck will not be the same as the previous people, including the people in our family, who had suffered losses.
But anyway I think that can be a learning material for the next in a gambling, and doing better than the experience that's already known. If it's happen to me., if it's had already a fatal effect, I think it's better to do something else/another efforts than gamble.

Well, families which drug problems are usually pretty strict with everything so I can assume it's the same with gambling.
One son gambles everything he has, and others are not allowed to bet 1$ in a coffee shop.

Gambling is a very destructive game and if someone has put such a restriction like not gamble even one dollar in the coffee shop, then it is for his own betterment. Even if one dollar is not very big amount and losing it would hardly effect the guy but this can develop a temptation in the player and he might come back to play more. This is how everything starts. Then after few games, he will become an addict and start losing big amounts.

[KennyR]

This happens very rarely, because today we might loss through gambling and the same will not happen with our future generations. But with the person mentioned in the Op has a serious loss from his people who were much attached. If that's the case surely I too will get suggestions not to get into gambling quoting the previous losses.

I dont have this kind of experience but i know a family of gamblers who’ve lost a lot. From riches to rags i call it. If ever i encounter the same situation i would encourage my friend to avoid gambling at all. Experience is the best teacher and he doesnt have to repeat the same mistakes his parends and grand parents did. The proof is visible.

Exactly, if our family or other-ones which we like him, if he has bad experience of gambling just like in the thread, his uncle have lost his all assets because of gambling, then definitely we have a lesson and think about gambling that is bad way.
But on the other hand, if anyone in our family who become rich from gambling, then definitely we will think that gambling is a easiest and superb way to get money easily and become rich. SO, it is depend on our experience which we get from gambling. 

You are right for once but a person must keep one thing in his mind that his luck and destiny is totally from every other person even if that individual is his flesh and blood. We all have different stories and different paths. Besides, gambling is a disaster most of the time so even if a close one became rich through gambling, there is no need to generalize it by looking at only one case. Gambling is just useless and we must stay away from it.

Yes there are incidents in my family affects me because of gambling. Because my family is a history of gambler. When my husband addicted on gambling he almost lost our family until our relationship destroy already because of gambling. That's the reason why I my house is a broken home now.

[slapper]

I think that it is wrong because there is nothing can prove that your friend will continue to lose his money just like his uncle. He can learn from their mistake. Experience gives a man strength to survive for many years. I believe that from their mistake, your friend will become stronger and smarter and he will be able to earn some good money from casinos

[Fafabol]

Maybe we think that if something happened to someone it can pass to us like we will have the same fate from each other, but for me it isn't. We all have different fate that we need to take, it's not just about gambling but in generally speaking and it's up to us what path do we take. So if your elders loss their fortune in gambling like maybe they're emotions and greed eats them then it must be a lesson learned for you so you can take precautionary measures to not end like them.

Better to avoid all such situations is to avoid the gambling if you play for money. It lead to all type of addiction as mostly people do not have a self control which is the major cause of concern and thus it can lead to worry for everyone in their family.

[joebrook]

Well if all that has happened to members of his family, i really think he should really learn something from that so that he doesn't go through the same trend as well. It may not be a family trait but i don't think he should make the same mistake that others in the family have already made.

It was the right thing, his uncle had said the best thing because he knew that gambling could ruin a person's life. There is plenty of evidence in the world that can show that gambling is a very bad thing to do. Maybe I would say that when we say gambling game is an entertainment then I will support, but when someone thinks that gambling game only aims to get a job and income then I do not really agree. Gambling will only destroy a person's life with a tremendous addiction and will be difficult to stop.

[FRJ]

Of course, the past events of the family will have an impact on the current generation, it is normal, as I can judge them by the fact that past events of my family have influenced me, just as I believe every event of every family has an impact on their current generation, As a result, I think that every incident of the family is gone in the past, it has come to the fore in the present generation, I have found many evidence, as if the parents have done business in the past, then the next generation does exactly that, but in the past If parents are gambling, then,The next generation becomes gambling,

So I want to say that the past events in the family have an impact on the current generation as it has affected me.

I think, even if someone is playing for seeking fun, he should avoid this game because it is very addictive and moreover, everyone wants to have as much fun as possible. I have seen people spending hours in gambling just because they enjoy the game but that does not kill the fact that they all lose money whenever lose a game. That is why, this is just a ridiculous game and it takes away a lot of money plus time.

Yes, my grandfather was an addict and he ended up screwing himself in his mid-age before finally giving up to the grave recently. Anytime I think about his story, it makes me wonder how people would use their own hands to inflict suffering on themselves when life already gave them the best.

This man was very wealthy, had a lot of businesses, built houses and even married several wives, but just decided to ruin all he had with a self-infliction from gambling and sold everything at the end before living his old age from hand to mouth. Tell me how such an experience would not make someone like me think twice before gambling at all.

[el kaka22]

No,Any of my family circumstances doesn't affect me from the gambling like family situations,because if I want to gamble I will and never look for anyone's permission.
But most of the players are still continue to gamble if their family is in bad financial situation,maybe in the thought that they can increase it by winning a jackpot on someday but it is a bad idea.

It's really a very big mistake when we are leaning to gambling in terms of getting instant fortune, gambling should be taken as a source of short time
enjoyment and nothing should be greater than that, we also need to consider our financial capability as gambling really affecting this factor in our life
if we do have spare money then we are good to go, not risking our saving for our family needs would allow you to enjoy your stay without any problem
quitting and thinking of others opinion.

A pretty huge one and the main reason a lot of people get addicted. If gambling will make everyone a fortune, how on earth are the casino owners and gambling site owners making their money and living large. It still baffles me if some people really do not think or they just end up allowing their greedy self to take full control of them. Anyone looking for an income would be better off doing something else, if they cannot cope with the idea of losing all their funds.

Honestly, you really just said it all. The fact is that a lot of people over imagine seeing themselves getting a good result from gambling without remembering the fact that the casino owners make money from them failing and their getting screwed. We cannot blame them as it is their business model and when entering to gamble we do accept all their norms even withing take time to know them.

For example, this guy’s uncle wrecked himself only to make the casino owner richer and that is what most addicts always end up doing. Best is to always learning self-control or not even gamble at all.
