Benefits of gambling? Yes - it exists!

[avikz]

Today evening, I was spending some free time by surfing various websites. Suddenly a website caught my attention which talks about the benefits of gambling. I was surprised because negative thoughts about gambling is so common, but positive thoughts are rare to find. So I went ahead and read the entire article. The article actually talks about the positive sides of gambling which I believe everyone should know and it made a lot of sense to me!

The article lists 7 points as the benefits of gambling:
1. Gambling Stimulates Local Economies
2. Gambling Is a Form of Entertainment
3. Gambling Can Take Place in a Safe Environment
4. You Could Win
5. Gambling Contributes to Government Budgets
6. Gambling Creates New Forms of Revenue
7. Gambling is a Form of Game Play

The article is actually a tight slap on the popular belief that "gambling is harmful to the society". So I encourage everyone on this forum to read the article and understand it, especially the non-gamblers! Gambling is not a fools-heaven, it's just another business and an opportunity to the gamblers! Hope this article would clear your mind!

I find 5 and 6 completely irrelevant. I couldn't care less about the government benefiting from my loss.
Is gambling a good thing? Of course! It has its  benefits the most important being 2 and 4. It's entertaining and it gives you a chance to win with this chance being rather high in some games like poker.

[mostkey]

and some points I love about gambling. it is the 4th and 6th points. This is what I feel so I have never stopped to gamble. and at a time when all is concerned with the negative views of gambling. I can only enjoy gambling from the good side only

It is true that some governments are corrupted and people should not rely on it. But some politicians really have good intentions and want their country to be great. However, they cannot afford to do that. With the help of gambling, they can manage to improve many things. My point is you should not generalize. Not all people are bad. Personally, I believe that everything has its advantages as well as drawbacks. That is why people should know where they put their feet on.

[Jating]

To be honest, our society is still divided regarding gambling but we have like 3 big casino's and some minor one and even lotteries which "gives" a lot of money to our government to help them build projects like infrastructures (highways, roads etc).

In a sense, it has benefits, but my only problem is that I can't feel any significant changes as reports keeps coming in that the money just goes to the pocket of corrupt government officials. So as far as I'm concern, yes there could be benefits, but I do hope that our governments really used the funds from gambling to help alleviate peoples lives in our country.

[SyGambler]

true , no one can deny the rule of gambling in the economy it's just like all other entertainment types
the list forgot one main thing  that you can make a living from gambling , most of the articles I read about gambling don't mention that fact it the majority believe that gambling can only cause loss

Yes. At first I thought it was written by a gambling magazine because I've seen such articles before, trying to promote gambling. However it is a web focused on the benefits of things, so it tries to find benefits in different activities but in cases like this one the article is filled in with some banal ones.

This depends on the perspective of the individual on where he/she wants to view it. Morally, gambling commits sin as it may be viewed as an act that corrupts the mind of an individual with greed. Economically and legally, gambling benefits the society as a whole in the aspect of fund raising and entertainment. It now all boils down on what outweighs the other depending on the perspective on where you look at it.

Gambling, however, has caused tremendous damage to an individuals mental capacity if left untreated. Without any support and help from their family members, peers, or relatives, they may succumb to the addiction which ultimately leads to their downfall.
The way I see on how gambling benefits the society is on the introspective aspect of each individual who was addicted before. Their experiences, failures, and decisions shape an individual on how they should avoid doing such mistakes in the past.

To be honest, our society is still divided regarding gambling but we have like 3 big casino's and some minor one and even lotteries which "gives" a lot of money to our government to help them build projects like infrastructures (highways, roads etc).

If gambling can benefit the society economically, then more casinos should be built and it should also influence individuals to gamble. The main concern revolves around officials who keep the money to themselves due to greed and to personal expenditures. That is where the problem occurs and exists in the first place. Better alternatives should be taken into consideration and not just by relying into casinos into funding a society.

true you can make living from gambling only if you do insane large bets and you need to win it if you want living off from gambling. i think they only write loss only cause because of how many lives people destroyed because of gambling and there are only few people that succeed from gambling.

[jrrsparkles]

But the only benefits that most of the gamblers were looking for is earnings and others most of them were don't care about.Even most of the gamblers forget that is was an entertainment purpose.But it depends on each people some can see good things in the bad activities too so be a one kind of the people to be a successful one.

[Leo_Wolf]

Sense of success is the most desired reward.For these feelings I also gamble for money online.  But I do not make rash investments or bets, I always do research before deciding. I also do not bet more than I can lose.

[slaman29]

Every economy has its benefits. Even if you look at dark economies or the blackmarket, they of course contribute to jobs and income. The drug cartels in South America are a huge GDP. The smuggling and ransom activities of groups in South East Asia, and piracy in Somalia all contribute to employing people and feeding families. The US declares war on other countries to take resources and give jobs to military and industrial activities.

Not saying gambling is like that, I love gambling, but this is a funny way to look at its benefits.

[Betwrong]

The article lists 7 points as the benefits of gambling:
1. Gambling Stimulates Local Economies
2. Gambling Is a Form of Entertainment
3. Gambling Can Take Place in a Safe Environment
4. You Could Win
5. Gambling Contributes to Government Budgets
6. Gambling Creates New Forms of Revenue
7. Gambling is a Form of Game Play

I agree with all of the above and in addition I only want to show one particular example of how me and my family are benefiting from gambling.

We love to watch new movies and high-quality TV series like Homeland, Westworld, Silicon Valley and the like. Unfortunately we don't have TV channels broadcasting them and even if we had, not all of us know English that well to watch it in the original language. And so it happens that we can only find the latest movies and episodes translation of which was sponsored by this or that online casino. Yes, we hear the advertisement in the beginning and in the end of a film, but we have the opportunity to watch a copy of a decent quality with pretty good translation. For some reasons no one except for the online casinos is doing that kind of thing and I'm really grateful for that.

But of course no one should ever try to make living from gambling because although You Could Win like the #4 suggests, you should know that your chances to lose are greater.

[gowobonyok]

besides the profit of earning money after earning a victory, another advantage of gambling is learning to trade. the basic science of trading is very similar to gambling. where we will make decisions like a big bet, and will gain an opportunity to win or lose.

[JanpriX]

Agreed with almost all of the details that you (actually, by the article) found. People should not see gambling as a bad activity if the person who's playing it have restrictions and discipline to tackle it accordingly. Things go bad when people lose their control over their emotions and gamble more than what they can afford to lose.

I, myself see it as a form of entertainment where I just splurge myself in moment when I'm feeling happy. In that way, I can walk out of it anytime I want without any regrets. Gambling while being depressed will really put you in a very bind spot. It is all about emotions and perception about it.

[Cacingkemi]

There are pros and cons of every person even a gambler about the article,in fact the gambling is an entertainment that can satisfy our passions.I agree with all the results of the article nice but I will add a little to those who do not like a gambling,well can eliminate the heavy stress cause there are faces of people who win or lose entertained by the behavior of gamblers with a positive mind so that the fatigue was lost from the face of the stressed person but not with the gambler who is always angry and it should be shunned There must be some kindness from the gambler.

[Juggy777]

This is a very nice article and it's like a oasis in the desert, people would yet term it as a mirage but I loved this article. I had been advocating for quiet a while that gambling should be allowed and everyone should be indulging in it freely. People often hit out for loosing but what about the winning part that no one ever talks.

I hope people change their beliefs post reading it.

[Pursuer]

7. Gambling is a Form of Game Play

1. true, but when we are talking about stimulating the economy we need to look at both advantages and disadvantages of it. and I'd say the downside of gambling is bigger than the upside of it for the economy. it is true that a casino can create new jobs but it also is making a lot of gamblers (players) poorer which is the damaging part of it to the economy.
2. that is the only benefit that I can agree about.
3. this is not a benefit!
4. yeah but that is a chance not a sure thing so I don't think we can call it a benefit
5. I don't even know how this is going to work! taxes? aren't better ways for that to happen?
6. this is the same as #1
7. this is the same as #2

[Barbut]

2. Gambling Is a Form of Entertainment
4. You Could Win

Gambling is a form of entertainment, benefits from entertainment should be great and fun spent time. If we can win some money along the way that is even better. Other things contribute to community, this two are main individual benefits that some person can have from gambling.
Everything is good if its consumed right, as long as gambling is fun and entertainment it cant hurt anyone, but when become more than that it can be a serious problem for a person and that person siblings. I don`t have that kind a problem, I gamble with money I can spend on fun, in gambling you need to be ready to lose.

[BillCoin]

Agreed with all of them but 3.
The fact that it take place in an environment which may look like is safe, may be a negative thing to consider.
People may think that this environment is safe and won't hurt them, so they may feel safe to keep gambling and gamble, which may actually lead them to bet more then they planned to lose.
In that situation the gambler may become addicted and it could be a very dangerous situation.

I don't think the money from the gambling is going to help in the economic growth of any country and in many countries governments were banned the lotteries because of many fake and scam lotteries.But gambling sites are privately own so which may not give much profits to the government.

there may well be a revenues for the government, but to be honest this may be only 1:10 and the great advantage is only the ownership of the company and the people will increasingly suffer if gamblers come with their ignorant behavior, see here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic= 4082557.0 he joins in a foolish way and it is profitable for the company. But yes blames primadice for his folly

Yes, it will not help to any governments because gambling owners won't pay any money to them. There are many fake gambling website will get most benefit to themselves only. Most of the cases people used to loose money with those fake websites.

There are really people who believes in the first place that gambling doesn't have benefits. Maybe yes to those who experienced worst and bad on their gambling journey but on the other side of the note, it's obvious that gambling isn't always a "bad" thing to consider.

Aside from the mentioned things on the lists, gambling have a "unique" benefits to those who feel that way.

Just wondering...why people still continue to gamble? Why gambling is still one of the successful industry? Why gambling activity is not declining as time passes by even with bad effects? That was because of that "unique" benefits that only the gambler itself knows.

[JL421]

We can of course win but it has become pretty rare now , if you want to gamble now on a casino there is a guarantee that you will never withdraw any profit from it because of the rigged fair system. And people might be bored of playing dice now so eventually there isn't any benefit
Currently according to me the only benefit is investing in a bankroll , you can easily get 5-10% return a month(on yolodice not sure about other sites)

[sheenshane]

1. Gambling Stimulates Local Economies

4. You Could Win

Yes, I was agreed on these aside from the rest number that I don't relate.
Entertainment, yes it mostly does if some people get bored and gambling is the answer.
Not sure in gambling can take place in a Safe Environment, for me gambling and robbery were the same.
The last one is you could win but actually many losses, in gambling, not all the time you always win and I think the percentage of winning is in 15% of chances of winning.

[StLucifer]

Yes its true but what about those who destroyed their lifes because of gambling and i can tell you i am one of them...thankfully my life is not destroyed yet but i think it will soon if i continue gambling...so would a article like this will me to go to gambling yet again...what should i do...i lost close to 10 BTC already in gambling...i loose on a daily basis...even if i win i am not able to stop myself and continue to do so until i loose all of them again....

But it is your fault that you lost money that you can't afford to lose,10BTC is huge money so you realized very later I think.Gambling addiction is one of the most negative concern about gambling but people are getting addicted to greediness and their fault so we can't blame the gambling for it.We should enjoy our gambling that is what the gambling was made for.

[Hamphser]

I find 5 and 6 completely irrelevant. I couldn't care less about the government benefiting from my loss.
Is gambling a good thing? Of course! It has its  benefits the most important being 2 and 4. It's entertaining and it gives you a chance to win with this chance being rather high in some games like poker.

I do only consider 2 and 4 which are actually the benefits which can only be achieved by a certain player and the rest is indeed goes to the government which i dont really care at all. Gambling do really have its positive benefits but we cant really remove the fact that it would mostly give you negative ones if you let yourself took control over yourself. Always on control and just enjoy the monehy being spent into your leisure times without abusing it too much.

Why the getting greed that we have to understand right. If any day they have luck on them and won the big fund means after they will really look into the make profit again and again.
But they will not able to achieve the profit at all mate.
Most of the people loosing money to recover the lose what invested to recover from it.

That is why number 2 on your list shouldn't have been there in the first place because you cannot gamble and loose money for entertainment if you are cautious of not spending or abusing too much money on leisure. I gamble because i want to win and the benefits my governemnt derives is just a bonus and whether they use it rightly is none of my business.

You are right and the thing i dont like is that the government on our country is included into the list where corruption is rampant thats why i dont really like for them to benefit when it comes to tax yet i had known on where those funds would go,even we say its none of our business but we cant really avoid to think up on things.Id rather play on an online casino and spoil all of my winnings (in case) and i do rather like to make the gambling site owner to be rich if i lose

On the contrary to what you are thinking, Gambling can actually add to government's revenue if the government can promote it correctly. You can take example of Las Vegas and Macau. These places have successfully promoted gambling tourism to the world. The governments are actually earning in billions from these gambling businesses. In 2013, gambling industry contributed 60% to the Macau's GDP. Having one or two casinos won't help the economy for sure, but if a government can promote a tourism around it, it will boost the national as well as the local economy significantly.

Secondly, not all online gambling websites are privately owned. Many of them are registered and pays corporate taxes as prescribed. Yes, there are fake and scam gambling websites also exist, but a person with common sense, can identify those easily.

If you have enough of money, i think you just like an entertainment and doesn't care even if you just win or lose as long as you are entertained. Anyway, i don't believe that gambling can give a positive effect to the people, maybe in some other cases with various factors would change the case (too many to mention).

If i have enough money with self conviction i will still not waste my money on gambling for entertainmenmt since there are other forms of entertainment outside gambling which are also free of charge. If you have enough money that you worked hard in earning i don't think you will still want to spoil your self by wasting them on gambling unless you have no use or respect for money.

[tabas]

This won't help mate as most of the people here will have an expected feed back. Although we already know that there's benefit in gambling but otherwise we don't have the same feathers.
"Gambling is not good" , "gambling is harmful" etc.

[GoldenLad]

Nice points OP. I never really considered this points as been the benefits of gambling till stated them. Especially on the benefits of been a government revenue, cause mostly country did ban gambling I wonder how then the government revenue comes to play them. Personally,  I would usually say that the benefits of gambling is ;good for relaxing,  good exercise for the brain and also possible means of earning few bucks if you are good and luck.

There is goodness in gambling of course especially on the side of the business tycoon and between government but if you are just a small gambler then probably you will be the to suffer the consequences of gambling. People should understand that gambling is a game of emotion which can lead you to a negative way until you broke.

[Indrawan77]

Yes of course there are benefits in gambling but the one that makes sense are gambling is an entertainment and new form of game play, the rest of it I don't consider as benefits for us, it benefit for the government and country, and other than that in gambling we also can make a new friend, gambling is good and give you benefit as long as you do it in proper way

Well it's always been a fact that gambling isn't just something that could ruin your life. The points you've mentioned are basically all legit given that the gambler's attitude is correct. If you do it the right way, these benefits would come to you.

Today evening, I was spending some free time by surfing various websites. Suddenly a website caught my attention which talks about the benefits of gambling. I was surprised because negative thoughts about gambling is so common, but positive thoughts are rare to find. So I went ahead and read the entire article. The article actually talks about the positive sides of gambling which I believe everyone should know and it made a lot of sense to me!

The article lists 7 points as the benefits of gambling:
1. Gambling Stimulates Local Economies
2. Gambling Is a Form of Entertainment
3. Gambling Can Take Place in a Safe Environment
4. You Could Win
5. Gambling Contributes to Government Budgets
6. Gambling Creates New Forms of Revenue
7. Gambling is a Form of Game Play

The article is actually a tight slap on the popular belief that "gambling is harmful to the society". So I encourage everyone on this forum to read the article and understand it, especially the non-gamblers! Gambling is not a fools-heaven, it's just another business and an opportunity to the gamblers! Hope this article would clear your mind!

all the forum users who are in this discussion must know that gambling there are some internal and external benefits, which you discuss is an external benefit in playing gambling of course behind the negative things there must be a positive thing in terms of internal such as train memory and intelligence such as train our left brain in calculating to set the strategy just the effects of playing gambling for the laity is very negative so that gambling is always considered negative by the public.

[jakezyrus]

And I think from that the right way., we must always keep the emotions / controlling the emotions as possible and can betting calmly in the state of clear mind. Well.. I think from there we can mastering the bets/game to bring benefits and wins.

even though you have a clear mind or you can manage to control your emotions you cant still guarantee that you will win on gambling because gambling will still depend on mostly luck and not on attitude or skills.

Also I think between can provide benefits or not to the country, it also depends on each country's economic life respectively.

Gambling cant provide benefits to the country or to the economy but rather gambling can only provide a benefits to its players .

I think the benefit that we can get when playing a Gambling is fun , profit , to meet new friends , and to learn how to accept defeat. We can learn new lessons from gambling as well.

Benifits Yes for sure, if you look at it from a gamblers perspective

a gambler plays and hope to win , right.

So here is the scenario..

1, Player A play on a casino with fiat money, lets say USD.
He is Lucky and Wins 1000 USD

Player A cash out 1000 USD and is a happy champ. he call his friends, buy them some free rounds of beer etc. and soon this money is gone.

2, Player B go to a new crypto casino and play with BTC
He is lucky and wins 0.12 BTC

Player B  Cash out 0.12 BTC, now the interesting part, This guy understand that this BTC is a little treasure and its fully possible that it can be worth so much more in a near future. so he goes from a gambler to an investor.

So..I beleive that a lot of A players, will turn into B players...pretty soon.

Why couldn't it provide benefits to a country that legalizes and taxes gambling?
It all depends on how those taxes are spent. I know that here in Belgium profits from the national lottery go to various good causes, so that's how gambling directly benefits society here at least.

People are going to gamble regardless whether it's illegal or not, if you regularize and tax it, it can definitely help society out.
This should also include providing with information and possible help for addiction.

[Supercrypt]

Gambling and Trading are very risky then crypto is very risky too but of course they popular from what conveniece they brings to every users so that's why they run too like we can learn a lot here while we earn so we use things because of the benefits of it,i think also if your not luck for playing gambling like you always lose better to try again in again until you win then just invest only the affordable for you then play for knowledge and fun after that i'm sure everything will go well like you can get strategy to play in gambling then win

No one said it is not risky but the thing is to understand the risk and know how to act on it without you losing your mind.

Gambling should be considered more on the entertainment side which is one of the benefits that the OP listed, it is just quite unfortunate that a lot of people put so much of their attention on the number 4 that they so get emotionally attached to winning so much from gambling and then get eventually greedy to lose everything. Those who see this as fun only gamble what they can afford to lose and they do not stretch themselves so much.

[Hamphser]

I find 5 and 6 completely irrelevant. I couldn't care less about the government benefiting from my loss.
Is gambling a good thing? Of course! It has its  benefits the most important being 2 and 4. It's entertaining and it gives you a chance to win with this chance being rather high in some games like poker.

I do only consider 2 and 4 which are actually the benefits which can only be achieved by a certain player and the rest is indeed goes to the government which i dont really care at all. Gambling do really have its positive benefits but we cant really remove the fact that it would mostly give you negative ones if you let yourself took control over yourself. Always on control and just enjoy the monehy being spent into your leisure times without abusing it too much.

That is why number 2 on your list shouldn't have been there in the first place because you cannot gamble and loose money for entertainment if you are cautious of not spending or abusing too much money on leisure. I gamble because i want to win and the benefits my governemnt derives is just a bonus and whether they use it rightly is none of my business.

You are right and the thing i dont like is that the government on our country is included into the list where corruption is rampant thats why i dont really like for them to benefit when it comes to tax yet i had known on where those funds would go,even we say its none of our business but we cant really avoid to think up on things.Id rather play on an online casino and spoil all of my winnings (in case) and i do rather like to make the gambling site owner to be rich if i lose 

If you have enough of money, i think you just like an entertainment and doesn't care even if you just win or lose as long as you are entertained. Anyway, i don't believe that gambling can give a positive effect to the people, maybe in some other cases with various factors would change the case (too many to mention).

If i have enough money with self conviction i will still not waste my money on gambling for entertainmenmt since there are other forms of entertainment outside gambling which are also free of charge. If you have enough money that you worked hard in earning i don't think you will still want to spoil your self by wasting them on gambling unless you have no use or respect for money.

Using up money on gambling sites doesnt really mean that you have no use or respect for money yet there are people who would really likes to play and do make use of their money on playing without minding too much on the risk or losing those funds.The important thing on here is that you should really be responsible enough into your actions which your funds being used are not on the ones being used to support your daily living. Leisure is normal and lots of ways on how we deal on it, some would be practical where they do avoid on too much spending but there are people who do loves gambling inspite on being too much expense.

I find that gambling contributing to the government's budget and stimulating the local economy a bit controversial, because it might be true that not all people are corrupted and some of them are legit, but lets face it the ones that are not are the ones that have the big money the ones that go into a casino and spend 10k or 20k like it was nothing, and someone spending that much money defiantly didn't get it from hard work, probably that is dirty money and they use casinos to do some money laundering which is not contributing to the economy.

I agree.Gambling may only become beneficial and profitable if you will just play it in a short time but if you will make it as a long-term entertainment,i'm sure you will really get lose in the end.Gambling may give you chances to win as much as it will also give you chances of losing.

[Uno17]

Yes there are also benefits from gambling industry. Just imagine how casinos will run without people working for in the industry, it provides employment to people who needs work. Therefore the industry has contributed also to country’s economy because people benefited employment.That’s how i look at it in terms of benefits, and on the hand, on gambler’s side also it is only very seldom to benefit from gambling activity because it is more on losing at the end😌

There is goodness in gambling of course especially on the side of the business tycoon and between government but if you are just a small gambler then probably you will be the to suffer the consequences of gambling. People should understand that gambling is a game of emotion which can lead you to a negative way until you broke.

Probably yes or probably no! If you are a responsible gambler and don't go insane with your bankroll, then you will not face any consequences and probably you will be able to earn some money out of it as well. However, if you gamble with your last penny, then you've pretty much made the choice for yourself! Not every gambler suffers a consequence of gambling till the time they know where to stop.

[Slash61]

Yes it will be greatly felt by people who have been successful in gambling, after getting more benefits in gambling and it is not a negative activity after they feel the business benefits they are doing, but for people who have failed gambling? there may be no benefit to them that there is only misery.
All activities will be beneficial if they succeed in the event if they fail to be very depressed, I'm sure it all depends on everyone's intelligence to be smarter in doing gambling activity, not origin in playing.

How do you think gambling have benefits mate. If you have luck on your part you can get the one time win and otherside you will fall the all the bets and dice games you can itself confirms that you are not enough success stories on gambling.

If you own the gambling websites that time you can make successful wins with the investment you have.

in gambling, it is very risky with bankruptcy and misery. especially if we do not have the skills and good self-control in gambling. especially the game of dice, this gambling is very difficult for us to control our emotions to not put the target too high. because that's what will drop the dice gamblers

[yanlap]

To be honest, our society is still divided regarding gambling but we have like 3 big casino's and some minor one and even lotteries which "gives" a lot of money to our government to help them build projects like infrastructures (highways, roads etc).

In a sense, it has benefits, but my only problem is that I can't feel any significant changes as reports keeps coming in that the money just goes to the pocket of corrupt government officials. So as far as I'm concern, yes there could be benefits, but I do hope that our governments really used the funds from gambling to help alleviate peoples lives in our country.

I don't think the money from the gambling is going to help in the economic growth of any country and in many countries governments were banned the lotteries because of many fake and scam lotteries.But gambling sites are privately own so which may not give much profits to the government.

If we see the number of gamblers living in any of the country in the world, then we will notice that the number is not that much significant and that there are not so many gamblers. As far as benefits of the gambling is concerned, there might be some benefits of the gambling but those benefits are quite less than the disadvantages of the gambling. You need to make a wise choice by keeping all the things in your mind.

[Devawnm367]

First off if you do it responsibly it is not an issue, then benifits are you can turn 1 into 10, I have personaly on slots turned 1 into 500. My advice is due it responsibly, and when you win buy something nice with it then either invest or gamble more as long as you spend some of your winnings you can stay ahead

[yoseph]

When done without any addiction, Gambling sometimes is very good as an effective stress reliever and a great way to socialize when doing it at a casino.

[ocid]

gambling can indeed harm people who do not know the specific strategies and skills in gambling, most people view gambling as a negative side but can generate benefits so they can easily become rich if they are experts in gambling. I think gambling is a fun form of entertainment and can try my luck by doing the game.

[livingfree]

Well it's always been a fact that gambling isn't just something that could ruin your life.

This social belief has been proven that gambling isn't only for destroying someone's life but it's also a way to achieve someone's goal quickly.

Now I understand why there are people who attains to remain as a gambler and chooses their path on this industry, it's because they know the game and they have a game play (no.7).

[panjul07]

When done without any addiction, Gambling sometimes is very good as an effective stress reliever and a great way to socialize when doing it at a casino.

Unfortunately most people do gambling for money because they hope to be rich from it. In fact they do not even get anything except addiction and big loses. Indeed there might be few gamblers change their life from nothing to something from gambling because they were so lucky, but if they cant control their emotion then they will back to nothing again soon.

Agreed, with most people making more and more money is the key factor of getting into gambling. This becomes successful with very few users while the majority losses in the short or after long term. There are users who gamble and make their living. Similarly there are users who have lost their better standard of living after getting into gambling.

[maydna]

I am sure that there is a benefit of gambling but I don't think that the benefits will be good if we compare with the negative of gambling. I agree with the number 2 which is "Gambling Is a Form of Entertainment" because as long as we only play gambling for searching fun and entertain then we don't have to lose too much money and we can stop the games in any time. although we can win, it still difficult to always win and if we make a percentage, maybe it's too low to get a winning in the gambling. so if we still want to play gambling, then we need to know about the risk and we can think if it's a good idea to still play or not.

The benefits of gambling are fewer and more difficult to achieve for most people. In every case, there must be a good side and a bad side. But unfortunately, in gambling, the bad side is more dominant than the good one.

Ya right. Gambling is indeed not harmful to the society but it is harmful to the gambler unless the gambler doesnt care about money or losing and if he is willing to donate his money to local economy and government’s budget. 

[streazight]

Well it's always been a fact that gambling isn't just something that could ruin your life. The points you've mentioned are basically all legit given that the gambler's attitude is correct. If you do it the right way, these benefits would come to you.

How can you expect good returns from gambling when you already know that this is based on evil thing? Your life would be reluctant you would never be going to earn big profits from this game. You already know that if you invest in this gambling, things would become harsh and you would be losing everything in there. Mind yourself and give respect to your hard earned money.

Well it's always been a fact that gambling isn't just something that could ruin your life. The points you've mentioned are basically all legit given that the gambler's attitude is correct. If you do it the right way, these benefits would come to you.

It’s the biggest consequence of gambling in my opinion and it never do anything else besides this thing that is to ruin somebody’s life. I don’t see any right way which you can follow so that the benefits and profits of gambling come to you. I think no matter how the gambler conducts the gambling, at the end he comes back empty handed and no such benefits are seen with him. 

[KorakPawon]

the ultimate in gambling can train your mind. Lots of online gambling games that require thinking in playing the tricks and strategies that have been studied. So it's no wonder if this online gambling game will be able to bring the players to be able to hone his thinking skills, and can see any chance sekecik and can use resijo for you can get what you want of course.

[crwth]

Accounting that the government has registered the casino and possibly getting tax from it, it’s fine because it would help the country to excel and have funds for different things like new infrastructures providing people with jobs and the like. That’s what matters in the long run, beneficial for the country not just for a person.

[mostcrack]

After all, gambling can make a person lose, psychologically, economically, socially, although there is a positive side but not all positive sides can be felt really by some people, nothing but vacancy, sometimes profit is not worth the expense, will it is very difficult to continue to rely on luck, because it will be very potential to suffer many defeats.

[Juliedarwin]

You can get and receive the best benefits of gambling. But you know physically how to handle the game, how to lose with your money. You must be care with your money and thinking through with your daily expenses.

[anntlevel]

Yes there are also benefits from gambling industry. Just imagine how casinos will run without people working for in the industry, it provides employment to people who needs work. Therefore the industry has contributed also to country’s economy because people benefited employment.That’s how i look at it in terms of benefits, and on the hand, on gambler’s side also it is only very seldom to benefit from gambling activity because it is more on losing at the end😌

This would-be injustice if we say that there is nothing profitable which you can get from gambling and that there is no way that you can make anything out of it. There are making out some good amount of money either by running the casinos or by getting into the gambling themselves. This is all the matter of your own interest and the way you look up at the things which makes the difference.

[Taki]

Everything has its good and bad side. In this thread gambling explained in a very rainbow light, but I am more sure in gambling's disadvantages than in its advantages. Gambling was called as one of the greatest sins not without a reason.

[Pearls Before Swine]

I find 5 and 6 completely irrelevant. I couldn't care less about the government benefiting from my loss.

Whether you care about it or not, it's significant for society as a whole.  Tax money goes toward repairing sidewalks and healthcare and everything else.  Yes a lot of money gets spent on things that you might not agree with, but tax money is important for all of us.  Why do you think governments run the lotteries that we all have?

I find a few of these reasons dubious, like #4 (you could win).  I'd also say that's the most important one in many people's eyes, but the chances of winning anything that negates all of your losses is extremely slim, and that's why casinos exist.  The math is against the gambler 100%.  In addition, you could make up a list of the benefits of anything from gun ownership to drug abuse, and without making a corresponding list of the negatives, it's extremely biased.

At some point it is true. And all the top 7 list on how gambling can benefits in general was absolutely true. Actually in my country, if you are poor and one on your family member is sick and badly need for medication, you can ask help from what we called PAGCOR (Philippines Amusement and Gaming Corporation) is a government owned and controlled corporation. Which open to help those who are proven that in need. Its just that many misunderstood the concepts of gambling and that is why many people think that gambling cause negative impact to people.

Its right and its a good points in gambling that many of us didn't know. Most of us here knows that gambling is for money that is our focus and when we losses we fpcus on negative things instead of making our life much better and at first we choose to gamble so does accepting losses is necessary.

[seven2smoke1]

Everything has its good and bad side. In this thread gambling explained in a very rainbow light, but I am more sure in gambling's disadvantages than in its advantages. Gambling was called as one of the greatest sins not without a reason.

I liked your point of view here. In this thread there is a bunch of people are addicted to gambling so much and they see that gambling had more advantages than disadvantages. Personally, I see that gambling is a waste of money in the case that you want to make a lot of money from this field, but if you just do that only for fun, it will be better for everyone.

[Betwrong]

When done without any addiction, Gambling sometimes is very good as an effective stress reliever and a great way to socialize when doing it at a casino.

Indeed there might be few gamblers change their life from nothing to something from gambling because they were so lucky, but if they cant control their emotion then they will back to nothing again soon.

I absolutely agree with this. I even think that gamblers who play for fun (like me for example) can be found mostly on this forum because in other places, I mean other forums and chats, the situation is different. People discussing "winning strategies" in all seriousness and also they believe that your winning or losing depends on your emotional state and things like that and it's impossible to overpersuade them. Although healthy gambling has a lot of benefits it works for people who are not addicted and who don't think of making living from gambling.

yes, and this is why that we need to understand that playing gambling has bad things and it can cause negative for us. we don't know when we can get the winning money from gambling and if we continue to play, we can lose all the money we have and it is better to leave from the games as soon as possible. and although the benefits still exist, the problem many of us is forget about the negative effects of gambling itself so we still continue to play the games.

Today evening, I was spending some free time by surfing various websites. Suddenly a website caught my attention which talks about the benefits of gambling. I was surprised because negative thoughts about gambling is so common, but positive thoughts are rare to find. So I went ahead and read the entire article. The article actually talks about the positive sides of gambling which I believe everyone should know and it made a lot of sense to me!

The article lists 7 points as the benefits of gambling:
1. Gambling Stimulates Local Economies
2. Gambling Is a Form of Entertainment
3. Gambling Can Take Place in a Safe Environment
4. You Could Win
5. Gambling Contributes to Government Budgets
6. Gambling Creates New Forms of Revenue
7. Gambling is a Form of Game Play

The article is actually a tight slap on the popular belief that "gambling is harmful to the society". So I encourage everyone on this forum to read the article and understand it, especially the non-gamblers! Gambling is not a fools-heaven, it's just another business and an opportunity to the gamblers! Hope this article would clear your mind!

Article Link: https://www.benefitsof.org/what-are-the-benefits-of-gambling/

The articles you read seem to be made by bookies. Whatever the reason that gambling game is a very bad thing and seen from the benefits of gambling game is a very pointless and not produce anything. The hope that we continue to desire will not always be present and that is the main reason that gambling game is very influential on a fortune. For me that gambling game is an inappropriate action because of its very high risk, an acute addiction can destroy our lives and the future we want to achieve.

Do not ever try to play gambling when we are not ready to take the risk that might be achieved, gambling games are also not a thing to do to find an entertainment. Believe that gambling game will only make some of your life experience a much faster destruction.

[bratko99]

Who said it didn't had any benefits tho?
Of course it does! The main one is that you can win! But you can also lose lmao
Putting that aside, it is just fun. Maybe not for everyone, but for the most, yea, just fun.

[yanlap]

You can get and receive the best benefits of gambling. But you know physically how to handle the game, how to lose with your money. You must be care with your money and thinking through with your daily expenses.

Yeah! Only then the gambler can become a successful gambler when he would become aware of everything that is happening in his life besides gambling. Because if he will come to know that what he has to face after losing in gambling, he would not put bigger bets than that he can afford and if this would be his strategy, he would also not have to suffer from gambling consequences.

[iv4n]

Op listed benefits for community and for individuals. They are not new, they exist as long as gambling, but they are pushed on a side because many more people talks about bad side of gambling.
In gambling people lose money, some people don't have limits for them gambling is characterized as devils job, instead to take money home people spent it in casino. But that's something you can expect from stupid people, smart people know the meaning of the game and they play for fun and thrill, if they take money it's even better, but its not all about that, running for money isn't gambling.
For me gambling have more benefits then the bad sides, but that is probably because I have fun and I never spent more then I can with gambling, addition to that I won many times a lot and I know how good that feels.

[Kakmakr]

I can add that all these online gambling sites are creating jobs for the people who are hosting them and they are feeding the families of the people that are behind this. Some sites even have "Live" gambling, so they have employees that work at the tables and IT staff working on the networks and securing the site and also "Support" staff handling people's problems.

Every aspect of life has it's Pros and Cons. Take Bitcoin for instance : People can use Bitcoin to send money from one country to the next at a much lower fee than traditional remittance services, but it can also be used to buy drugs.

[dreamHeaven]

Nice points OP. I never really considered this points as been the benefits of gambling till stated them. Especially on the benefits of been a government revenue, cause mostly country did ban gambling I wonder how then the government revenue comes to play them. Personally,  I would usually say that the benefits of gambling is ;good for relaxing,  good exercise for the brain and also possible means of earning few bucks if you are good and luck.

I think there are no benefits of gambling because when something is bad in nature how does it has benefits? There are no benefits of gambling and I strongly condemn gambling and its benefits. The result of gambling always ends in debts and it will ruin your life and of your family as well. Don’t mislead people that gambling has benefits so that they start gambling.

[goaldigger]

I agree with the idea that those legal gambling places or huge casinos that can contribute to governments taxes. Aside from this the only positive thing it gives me is money, rarely give me money. Honestly, im more prone to lost than to win. I can consider entertainment because i usually gamble specially when im bored.

The only benefits that you could get that is the profits that you could have if you are a lucky person who always win in gambling, but if you are not, I assume you are not having any benefits at all, and don't you think that even if you are only treating it as an entertainment is that you are still losing money because of it, I hope you'll realized that there is a lot of ways on how to entertain yourself without losing any amount of money.

[qwertyup23]

Well it's always been a fact that gambling isn't just something that could ruin your life. The points you've mentioned are basically all legit given that the gambler's attitude is correct. If you do it the right way, these benefits would come to you.

How can you expect good returns from gambling when you already know that this is based on evil thing? Your life would be reluctant you would never be going to earn big profits from this game. You already know that if you invest in this gambling, things would become harsh and you would be losing everything in there. Mind yourself and give respect to your hard earned money.

The benefits that you received from gambling should not only be focused financially but from the attitude you gain from experience. This would only be applicable if you learned through experience and you did not let your addiction to take-over your well-being. This also may be possible with the intervention and support from your peers, family members, and relatives as they play an integral function in order for you to be aware about your mistakes. But then again, this will all depend if you are willing to be saved by these people as you cannot force someone to be helped if they refuse to be helped.

After all, gambling can make a person lose, psychologically, economically, socially, although there is a positive side but not all positive sides can be felt really by some people, nothing but vacancy, sometimes profit is not worth the expense, will it is very difficult to continue to rely on luck, because it will be very potential to suffer many defeats.

Most people focus on the financial aspect- as gambling revolves around money. But what they failed to realize is beyond on money, which is the mental and social aspect of an individual. Gambling has always been a problem to people who cannot have self-discipline and self-control but to those who survived the mental trauma and experience, they become responsible individuals who learned from their past mistakes.

Who said it didn't had any benefits tho?
Of course it does! The main one is that you can win! But you can also lose lmao
Putting that aside, it is just fun. Maybe not for everyone, but for the most, yea, just fun.

Most important benefit is the thrill that you can win. Even if you loose money repetitively , there will be some hope left that you will next time. And the happiness when you win after so many defeats is something else. But this is something that only extremely rich people can afford to do.

[yoseph]

Gambling can sometimes be fun especially if the person isn’t all that focused on the making money. It releases stress as well in some cases.

How do you say luck is the benefit mate. You need to get the profit means you should be sure that you will get the return for your investment but here there is nothing like that mate. I advice you to not take luck as the benefit in the gambling field.
As said, if you want to spare the time for investment alone you will be happily enjoy the moment and thrill mate.
But entertain without loosing money in the gambling field is not available at all.

[SHAWN-MIDWAYS]

I like your thoughts on this thread, whenever someone is talking about gambling they are generally talking about the negatives of gambling and not always thinking about the good sides of it. In my opinion I believe when you gamble it trains you how to take risks in life. This could train your brain that risks aren’t always a bad thing and that have good reward if you take “smart risks”.

if we look in that direction, gambling has a side where it is a reflection of ourselves, the more we are greedy. already on make sure our lives will be destroyed, so walk is simple. never target anything big without thinking long.

Entertainment would always have a cost when it comes to gambling field which if you do involve yourself into things then expect you would really need up to put some money and winning is just really a plus.If you do seek out for leisure times then you cant go wrong with gambling but just always remember on the risk involve on it.I do really see that it has really benefits on your own personal and majorly with the government itself.

Correct, maybe they could only say positive about gambling because they have just started and not loses that much, but if they will begin to think what coulfd happen to them in the long run, if they will continue losing, for sure they will start badmouthing gambling, they will start being negative about it, and the best thing that could happen is that they will finally quit gambling for good.

[Shinpako09]

I don't care much about on other benefits of gambling. I only care in number four because that's the only reason why i'm playing gambling and there's no other better benefits of gambling than winning for me.

[futureofeth]

Gambling is just guessing game and we don't acquire any other benefits through gambling. Gambling is just making money or losing money, but most cases we are loosing money here so we have to follow some strict rules before gambling.

[Getcoinsite]

IF only gambling income to the governments will be used according to what this really needed i think i will support all the 7 good points you're implying too,but the sad reality is not because majority of the gambling funds uses to support the campaigns of those corrupt politicians

Thats why maybe i will go for gambling is to enjoy and make us happy even in a short period of time.but still gambling has lots of negativity than positive traits

Actually all of that benefits are known by all of the gamblers they just dont give a chance to evaluate and acknowledge,but today as you have mentioned all of that maybe they would realized and may become more addicted becauseof this positive thread lol.

I hope this may not serve as moral booster for the gamblers to continue betting and be addicted by this means

Gambling really contribute in one economy especially when those giants casinos paying the correct taxes which I think is still possible. There's a good benefits of gambling but if you told it to other people they will see negative things on that. Gambling is a way to entertain yourself while there is a money involve, make sure you understand the risk of it.

[kenziefried]

Accounting that the government has registered the casino and possibly getting tax from it, it’s fine because it would help the country to excel and have funds for different things like new infrastructures providing people with jobs and the like. That’s what matters in the long run, beneficial for the country not just for a person.

No, I don’t think this would be haloing government to raise economics if they are considering these casinos. If still we accept that okay that might be of some help but the other side of picture is so hilarious. People are getting more loss and ruined life than this little tax paying. We have to consider this as well and the governments have been ignoring this fact for so long time.

[StarofBTC]

Well it's always been a fact that gambling isn't just something that could ruin your life. The points you've mentioned are basically all legit given that the gambler's attitude is correct. If you do it the right way, these benefits would come to you.

It’s the biggest consequence of gambling in my opinion and it never do anything else besides this thing that is to ruin somebody’s life. I don’t see any right way which you can follow so that the benefits and profits of gambling come to you. I think no matter how the gambler conducts the gambling, at the end he comes back empty handed and no such benefits are seen with him. 

There are in very much favor of gambling and that they think of it to be the best thing to do no matter how much money they have lost because of it. The thing is even if there are some benefits of the gambling, those benefits are not that much sufficient as compared to that of the disadvantages of the gambling and that if you can stay away from it, it is much better for you to do that.

It does help the government when they get the tax being paid by this casinos if assumed they pay correctly. It is a great source of revenue as people form other countries will also come to gamble like for example Macau where majority of the income of government comes from the taxes collected from casinos only.

It's really good to know that gambling is not only all about winning and losing,but it does help the government also in building infrastructures and establishments that would really help the people through making their lives more convenient to live.But all this things will not be fully recognized if the officials being placed in the government are only corrupt and selfish people.

[el kaka22]

Apparently, there is actually nothing that has demerit that obviously will not have merit and most of the demerits one can find in gambling are actually caused by people's greed most of the time and they make it typically unsafe for themselves by that 'I want to win by all means' mentality and not knowing when to call it quit when they are in the phased of losing almost everything and that is what eventually makes gambling perceived as something negative only if people can see it for what it exactly is.

But I don't think most of the gambling owners will pay taxes correctly to the governments so it will not be considered as a big benfit.But gambling can gives us a chance to make easy money if we are lucky enough which is the most beneficial thing from betting.

[boy130]

Just because something can contribute to society doesn't make it good. There are good and bad parts to everything, casinos included. Yes casinos generate tax, and some of these casinos put this money to humanitarian causes (very few). Overall, the contributions of the gambling industry to society are likely to be negative, particularly casinos that allow problem gamblers to continue playing.

There will be hardly anything in this world which does not have any kind of advantages. It is just that in some cases, the disadvantages are more than that of the advantage and that because of which, most of the people think bad about such thing.

No doubt governments take much more taxes from gambling casinos than other institutes present in their country because people are in great ration who love to play gambling and son the casinos keep on going for the whole year and can’t even close their casino for a day or so because they will get great loss if they will do so. Eve gambling is considered a negative thing but still governments can close casinos.

Gambling is not a way to earn money so we don't have to come up gambling with the intention of making money and the probability of winning in gambling is very less so you need to be luck to be in the part of winning side and it may not happen forever too so we always have to gamble only for entertainment.

As my experience, most of gambling activity has high risk !
Let's take a look on math when I have learned at school , explain that the chance of loss are greater than winning so it's difficult to find people who got rich because of gambling ( for who able to rich from gambling, they already overcome the risk ! )

They didn't overcome the risk even if they play next time there is no chance that they can win so it all depends on luck so we can't expect to be a millionaire by gambling alone.

[wuvdoll]

and some points I love about gambling. it is the 4th and 6th points. This is what I feel so I have never stopped to gamble. and at a time when all is concerned with the negative views of gambling. I can only enjoy gambling from the good side only

That revenue part though is something that I feel tend towards the side of the gambling platform or casino owners as they are usually the ones making the huge revenue in the first place. For personal opinion for any gambler, I feel the entertainment and the possibility of winning part is actually one of the good things of it and if you can manage to control yourself the most and build a limit, you will be able to at least either achieve getting most of the entertainment part and if lucky, win yourself some huge money doing so.

Benefits from gambling may be unlimited but not all of them could be materialized. If we understand this fact then we can avoid disappointments and then frustrations. No one can refuse like there could be no benefits of gambling. We need to mature ourselves to find and enjoy nay outcome of gambling as its benefits.

it's hard to say that they overcome the risk because I don't think that they want to risk to lose their money or maybe some of them really risk their money and suddenly, their luck is comes to them so they can win the games with easy and they can win a big money. I think even if we know that gambling has high risk, there are a people that still play the games and they agree with the risk. it does not stop people from playing the games because they want to try their luck.

Agree. The funniest part is that we keep talking about how gambling revenue actually affects the government pocket and then I tend to think why some people will find it easy to lose all their money to gambling and when they are asked to pay common tax anyway, they still do not. I know they both do not correlate but I am only saying it in the sense that people's life get ruined when it comes to gambling, and even though government is benefiting from it, it is just a benefit that is derived from other people's losses because of the urge they could not control. Pretty funny though .

[Mastsetad]

This won't help mate as most of the people here will have an expected feed back. Although we already know that there's benefit in gambling but otherwise we don't have the same feathers.
"Gambling is not good" , "gambling is harmful" etc.

No doubt gambling is bad, gambling is harmful and there are many bad effects of gambling on the whole. Gambling is beneficial for those who are experts and they know the tricks to win the bet. They can make big money in seconds, while other who has no or very little experience of gambling can lose all their money. Gambling is good only for experts.

I also believe this is true, but the problem is gambling is a form of competition, and humans will always be competitive. Whilst there is one human who thinks he is better than another, a gambling type circumstance will always form. e.g. I bet you I can do this, and you can't. It's only natural that systems form around this trait to make it easier to wager.

what your saying is right but I see that many of people still come back to the gambling places and they still play the games without a care with the loss of money. they think that in the next day, their luck will come to them so they can win the money but they wrong because the more time they spend in the gambling games, they have a big chance to lose more money. so if we really care about our money and don't want to lose more money, we should make limitations when we play games so we know when we need to stop.

Gambling isn't risky if you gamble only once on a particular, if you continue to gamble with the same account for a long time you will lose, either make another account or switch sites , this surely doesn't guarantee profit but gives you a fair luck

"Gambling is not good" , "gambling is harmful" etc.

No doubt gambling is bad, gambling is harmful and there are many bad effects of gambling on the whole. Gambling is beneficial for those who are experts and they know the tricks to win the bet. They can make big money in seconds, while other who has no or very little experience of gambling can lose all their money. Gambling is good only for experts.

I also believe this is true, but the problem is gambling is a form of competition, and humans will always be competitive. Whilst there is one human who thinks he is better than another, a gambling type circumstance will always form. e.g. I bet you I can do this, and you can't. It's only natural that systems form around this trait to make it easier to wager.

Benefits is that you can easily while your time, you can get many beverages to eat in casinos, if you win then it is bonus as you everything else you are getting is free and do not have to spend and above that if you win is like you are the luckiest of them all as mostly people will lose money. Also you can make some good buddies as well.

Except maybe you are playing poker and which still do come with a bit of luck, there is actually nothing or no one called experts in gambling. The only thing that makes you a sane gambler is when you know you to use your reasoning alongside your gambling activity.

Those who know the possibilities of losing in gambling is pretty high, usually do not try to gain something from it and the only thing they can consider gaining is fun while paying for it, unless they just get lucky to win something good and with that kind of mentality, it helps them to not lose focus.

There are those who play for entertainment and in a way, it may be considered as "gain". It gives them some sort of fulfillment or sense of satisfaction after having won a few times. Even while it is risky or that there is a high chance of losing your money, the fulfillment one gains from gambling is beneficial for others. Many keep on pointing out how bad gambling is and gambling is usually associated to negativity but we can see some benefits from it by looking at it with a different perspective.

[Btcschool]

Well it's always been a fact that gambling isn't just something that could ruin your life. The points you've mentioned are basically all legit given that the gambler's attitude is correct. If you do it the right way, these benefits would come to you.

It’s the biggest consequence of gambling in my opinion and it never do anything else besides this thing that is to ruin somebody’s life. I don’t see any right way which you can follow so that the benefits and profits of gambling come to you. I think no matter how the gambler conducts the gambling, at the end he comes back empty handed and no such benefits are seen with him. 

This is nonsense and I never believe that gambling has benefits too. I can count the deficits of gambling rather than benefits. The worst thing in gambling is that it is the mother of crimes and almost every addicted gambler is also criminal and he does illegal things for his addiction. There is no positive attitude and no right way to use your attitude.

[wuvdoll]

As my experience, most of gambling activity has high risk !
Let's take a look on math when I have learned at school , explain that the chance of loss are greater than winning so it's difficult to find people who got rich because of gambling ( for who able to rich from gambling, they already overcome the risk ! )

They didn't overcome the risk even if they play next time there is no chance that they can win so it all depends on luck so we can't expect to be a millionaire by gambling alone.

What is even there to overcome in the first place ?
The risk is there, and the only thing that can make anyone not end up being susceptible to the craziness that the risk brings is just by being reasonable, realistic and principled. A lot of people look at the benefit they get from gambling the most which is from winning and then they discard the most important thing that is applicable mostly to gambling which is losing and with that they set themselves in a blazing torch that is hard to quench at the end.

[Tungsten-1]

I agree with the idea that those legal gambling places or huge casinos that can contribute to governments taxes. Aside from this the only positive thing it gives me is money, rarely give me money. Honestly, im more prone to lost than to win. I can consider entertainment because i usually gamble specially when im bored.

Gambling really contribute in one economy especially when those giants casinos paying the correct taxes which I think is still possible. There's a good benefits of gambling but if you told it to other people they will see negative things on that. Gambling is a way to entertain yourself while there is a money involve, make sure you understand the risk of it.

It does help the government when they get the tax being paid by this casinos if assumed they pay correctly. It is a great source of revenue as people form other countries will also come to gamble like for example Macau where majority of the income of government comes from the taxes collected from casinos only.

No doubt governments take much more taxes from gambling casinos than other institutes present in their country because people are in great ration who love to play gambling and son the casinos keep on going for the whole year and can’t even close their casino for a day or so because they will get great loss if they will do so. Eve gambling is considered a negative thing but still governments can close casinos.

Yeah! It’s totally true that the government takes much more taxes from these casinos than other institutes like you said and the main reason behind this fact is the users the gambling is having with it. Every activity can be stopped but can never ever be stopped because a lot of people are attached with it very closely and if the gambling would be stopped or removed, these people would die.

I think your response is very rudimentary. Everything related to gambling is a risky thing and that is a fact that happens !! Gambling games should not be done, let alone for the purpose of earning income. Theoretically that luck can not be ascertained and I assume that gamblers just wasted their money and time. Believe that gambling is a bad thing, therefore when we are already on the path of addiction then we must be prepared to accept the destruction in our lives

Today evening, I was spending some free time by surfing various websites. Suddenly a website caught my attention which talks about the benefits of gambling. I was surprised because negative thoughts about gambling is so common, but positive thoughts are rare to find. So I went ahead and read the entire article. The article actually talks about the positive sides of gambling which I believe everyone should know and it made a lot of sense to me!

The article lists 7 points as the benefits of gambling:
1. Gambling Stimulates Local Economies
2. Gambling Is a Form of Entertainment
3. Gambling Can Take Place in a Safe Environment
4. You Could Win
5. Gambling Contributes to Government Budgets
6. Gambling Creates New Forms of Revenue
7. Gambling is a Form of Game Play

The article is actually a tight slap on the popular belief that "gambling is harmful to the society". So I encourage everyone on this forum to read the article and understand it, especially the non-gamblers! Gambling is not a fools-heaven, it's just another business and an opportunity to the gamblers! Hope this article would clear your mind!

I was on the points 2 and 4. Where you have a chance to win and earn through gambling at the same time you enjoy your money when betting. I know gambling was only chances that gives a win to those lucky people, it also proves that people enjoy killing the time through it.

Hahaha I mean really? Do you really think of gambling as good place just to find good friends and have fun? Don’t you think it is more evil than this little goodness? If you are still thinking of gambling as good source of entertainment, however people are being ruined through it, I salute you for being such an enormous ignorant of team. You all must know the reality hidden in there.

I am unable to understand that what do you mean by you can easily while your time. Does it really make any sense? Come on man I think you don’t even have the lightest notion about the benefits of gambling. Beverages are present in gambling casinos but you have to pay for them if you want and these beverages never become free for the gambler who wins because this portion is not linked with casino.

I strongly agree if we explore more deeply in addition to the negative impact of gambling some positive impacts or arguably gambling turns out there are benefits only people think almost everything negative about gambling.

[TheGreatPython]

I find 5 and 6 completely irrelevant. I couldn't care less about the government benefiting from my loss.
Is gambling a good thing? Of course! It has its  benefits the most important being 2 and 4. It's entertaining and it gives you a chance to win with this chance being rather high in some games like poker.

Lol. Well, even if you not care, one way or the other, the activity kind of helps the economy. However, I totally agree that the most thing here for a gambler is the fact that you could have some fun if you choose to, and out of catching the fun, you can really make a huge amount of money, but not something to be focused on too much. That is where a lot of people end up catching up with the negative effect of it as they focus more on the winning aspect than the entertainment aspect.

[wildan88]

but unfortunately, the benefits of gambling for ourselves does not exist, because the fact gambling just makes me addicted, and lost a lot of money.
It's my experience that's been playing gambling for a few years. even gambling could not make me a lot of money. but in other ways, I can make a lot of money.

It's really unfortunate that you can't control your emotions and greed. I am sorry to say this, because if you are confident that you can make a lot of money in other ways, why don't you do that? If you consider yourself an addicted gambler, go get a professional help to come out of this addiction. If you don't want to come out of this addiction, you never will. The desire to come out of this addiction should come from inside, then only someone can help you to come out of this. But don't blame or de-frame an entire industry for your own mistakes. People aren't gonna buy that!

[Direwolve735]

One of the main benefit of gambling is that the economy of the country can get an additional income item and at the same time all owners of this business will also be in an excellent position. The flow of financial interest from this sphere of business will be able to close some holes in the state budget. Thus, it will be possible for some countries to reduce the amount of money held in the International Monetary Fund.

[Rinsend]

I like your thoughts on this thread, whenever someone is talking about gambling they are generally talking about the negatives of gambling and not always thinking about the good sides of it. In my opinion I believe when you gamble it trains you how to take risks in life. This could train your brain that risks aren’t always a bad thing and that have good reward if you take “smart risks”.

if we look in that direction, gambling has a side where it is a reflection of ourselves, the more we are greedy. already on make sure our lives will be destroyed, so walk is simple. never target anything big without thinking long.

Correct, maybe they could only say positive about gambling because they have just started and not loses that much, but if they will begin to think what coulfd happen to them in the long run, if they will continue losing, for sure they will start badmouthing gambling, they will start being negative about it, and the best thing that could happen is that they will finally quit gambling for good.

that's why we have to have experience in gambling, because gambling requires a great strategy, time and emotion. if these three things have been mastered. it will be very easy to deal with every situation at the time of gambling.

[Colt22]

For me the important benefits of gambling is that it is a source of entertainment and with the current online casino a person can get the entertainment of these casino from their room and they do not need to go far away from their home to enjoy the life of these casino.
Nowadays people are too much busy and it this busy life if they will try for any enjoyment then these online casinos will help them.

Yes, I also agree with you that gambling has benefits given to the gamblers.We have to take two sides this time. Well negative is also present but try to think of what is the positive given at the same time. Gambling is a source of recreational activity and with better luck a good source of income too.Gambling can give us lesson to be smart and strategical person.

It is true that some governments are corrupted and people should not rely on it. But some politicians really have good intentions and want their country to be great. However, they cannot afford to do that. With the help of gambling, they can manage to improve many things. My point is you should not generalize. Not all people are bad. Personally, I believe that everything has its advantages as well as drawbacks. That is why people should know where they put their feet on.

Indeed, gambling is beneficial somehow not on individual but in the othet way like on economy. When we heard gambling the only things comes to our mind is bad but it is not. For instance, there are some government use gambling in a good way like if there's no one wins it will be use for their projects development. However, there are still some people use gambling just for profit and I think that is bad because most of them doesn't want us to win so they lower the chance of winning.

[checkmatesir]

How can you expect good returns from gambling when you already know that this is based on evil thing? Your life would be reluctant you would never be going to earn big profits from this game. You already know that if you invest in this gambling, things would become harsh and you would be losing everything in there. Mind yourself and give respect to your hard earned money.

I never think of any benefit of gambling because I think that gambling is a bad thing and it has no benefits. The benefits are only for casinos owners and not for gamblers, because almost every gambler loses his money when he continues gambling. Can anyone tell exactly what are the benefits, because as I know it will leave you in debts, make you abnormal, ruin your family life etc.

  I don’t see such benefits of gambling because for me gambling is a disastrous thing and very bad reputation, so even if there will be some benefits of gambling, I will ignore them because I don’t want myself t be attracted to them and start thinking of gambling. The only benefit I see of gambling is that you have some good time to spend with your friends.

Gambling games are designed to give us excitement, not money so if you play these games only to earn money then most of the time you will get nothing because we lose many times in gambling and only sometimes we make some money from these games. So if you play these games to get excited then you can enjoy your free time and that will be your benefits and of course, it is not a free enjoyment but needs to spend some money.

It is indeed, Gambling is good to let's say economically speaking. Yes, as to a person well it's not. The thought of those people who are not yet into this industry and to those who are they'd make a mistake of thinking that by way of gambling they could have a good fortune (nonetheless to those who really made it successful at some point in time) and the opposite happens in which in result a lot of gamblers now are addicted to it, with overflowing debts and somehow has messy life.

Though what causes it? Simply by our own decision making and self-judgment. It's up to us on how will take or make use of Gambling. Given that it is set up for fun and entertainment purposes "ONLY".

[Kate Beckett]

If we talk not about the advantages of gambling as a whole, but about the legalization of the gambling business, then, in my opinion, the most important advantage is that the share of the shadow turnover of money in the country will decrease and, as a consequence, the outflow of funds abroad will decrease. This will improve the local economy, because the State Treasury would have had significant cash inflows from tax deductions from entertainment establishments.

[rickadone]

As my experience, most of gambling activity has high risk !
Let's take a look on math when I have learned at school , explain that the chance of loss are greater than winning so it's difficult to find people who got rich because of gambling ( for who able to rich from gambling, they already overcome the risk ! )

Huh what are you even saying , you learned maths in school so gambling is risky wtf

Gambling isn't risky if you gamble only once on a particular, if you continue to gamble with the same account for a long time you will lose, either make another account or switch sites , this surely doesn't guarantee profit but gives you a fair luck

You do not even need to gamble with the same account for a long time before you lose, as long as you take gambling as a hobby and you do it often, you will start setting yourself up for a very hard future and a crazy one that would be very hard to get out from.

Everything is all about luck and better still, it is the best thing to have the mindset that winning is the last thing you want to think about when it comes to gambling, as that would make you realize you should either not be gambling at all or choose another better reason such as fun to gamble.

"Gambling is not good" , "gambling is harmful" etc.

No doubt gambling is bad, gambling is harmful and there are many bad effects of gambling on the whole. Gambling is beneficial for those who are experts and they know the tricks to win the bet. They can make big money in seconds, while other who has no or very little experience of gambling can lose all their money. Gambling is good only for experts.

I also believe this is true, but the problem is gambling is a form of competition, and humans will always be competitive. Whilst there is one human who thinks he is better than another, a gambling type circumstance will always form. e.g. I bet you I can do this, and you can't. It's only natural that systems form around this trait to make it easier to wager.

Benefits is that you can easily while your time, you can get many beverages to eat in casinos, if you win then it is bonus as you everything else you are getting is free and do not have to spend and above that if you win is like you are the luckiest of them all as mostly people will lose money. Also you can make some good buddies as well.

Definitely, you can gain new friends in gambling. It is a stress reliever and serve as an entertainment.The luckiest part of gambling is when you win and go home with big income for your family.

It would be that easy if you realize that it is time to go home and you do not think of trying to gamble what you have gained the more with the hope of believing you will gain more. It could serve as an entertainment or a way to relieve stress only if you want it to or if you actually have the right mindset before gambling, as the truth is that you will get more stressed physically and emotionally if you gamble with the wrong mindset and that is certain.

so we only need to enjoy the games, right? and with spending some money, we can play that games and we can get the excitement. but once we forget about to enjoy the games, then just prepare to lose more money because, in that time, all we want is only how we can win the games so we can get that money which we are difficult to get. I think we can get a free enjoyment by doing another thing and we don't have to spend any money to get that.

You must answer him that doesn’t it be a source of destruction for humans? Doesn’t anyone who come here just bears pain and loss every time whenever he just play?

People have already got a lot of benefit from bitcoin, but most of the people got the profit because of the good luck, if you are luck you can really get some good profit from gambling, but it is very hard to say that if someone is getting profit from bitcoin because of their skill and education, because in gambling we mostly depend on our luck.

As long as it is responsible, crypto is a gamble in a way as well.

But at least you are making a reasonable one and you are being wise about it. I understand that crypto investment could be a gamble since we cannot at least know what the future holds, but at least there is a way you can cut down on the risk. The only thing with gambling in the normal world is that you are only subjected to luck and if you then have the mindset that you are going to just keep winning, then that makes it even crazier. If there are some benefits from gambling then we would not have seen many people were crying out here. There may be benefits but the people who are able to find them must be in less than 1% of total gamblers.

Well it's always been a fact that gambling isn't just something that could ruin your life. The points you've mentioned are basically all legit given that the gambler's attitude is correct. If you do it the right way, these benefits would come to you.

How can you expect good returns from gambling when you already know that this is based on evil thing? Your life would be reluctant you would never be going to earn big profits from this game. You already know that if you invest in this gambling, things would become harsh and you would be losing everything in there. Mind yourself and give respect to your hard earned money.

I never think of any benefit of gambling because I think that gambling is a bad thing and it has no benefits. The benefits are only for casinos owners and not for gamblers, because almost every gambler loses his money when he continues gambling. Can anyone tell exactly what are the benefits, because as I know it will leave you in debts, make you abnormal, ruin your family life etc.

The people who have plans in future that they will also gamble to earn huge money from it like other people are doing in their opinion, these people think that gambling has benefits in it but in the opposite situation, the person who is calm and happy with his life will never ever think to become a gambler because he knows that gambling will destroy his life.

Not everytime. Many affluent people indulge into gambling for pleasure and entertainment, even if they have enough money and a happy life. The problem here is with the addicted gamblers which is not good. I have mentioned it many times that, addiction is any things is not good. Be it gambling or alcohol or even trading stocks. Addiction can ruin your life as well as those associated with your life. Till the time you have control over your emotions and know where to stop, gambling can bring you serious entertainment in your life.

Today evening, I was spending some free time by surfing various websites. Suddenly a website caught my attention which talks about the benefits of gambling. I was surprised because negative thoughts about gambling is so common, but positive thoughts are rare to find. So I went ahead and read the entire article. The article actually talks about the positive sides of gambling which I believe everyone should know and it made a lot of sense to me!

The article lists 7 points as the benefits of gambling:
1. Gambling Stimulates Local Economies
2. Gambling Is a Form of Entertainment
3. Gambling Can Take Place in a Safe Environment
4. You Could Win
5. Gambling Contributes to Government Budgets
6. Gambling Creates New Forms of Revenue
7. Gambling is a Form of Game Play

The article is actually a tight slap on the popular belief that "gambling is harmful to the society". So I encourage everyone on this forum to read the article and understand it, especially the non-gamblers! Gambling is not a fools-heaven, it's just another business and an opportunity to the gamblers! Hope this article would clear your mind!

Article Link: https://www.benefitsof.org/what-are-the-benefits-of-gambling/

I strongly agree if we explore more deeply in addition to the negative impact of gambling some positive impacts or arguably gambling
turns out there are benefits only people think almost everything negative about gambling.

Yes, I also agree with you that gambling has benefits given to the gamblers.We have to take two sides this time. Well negative is also present but try to think of what is the positive given at the same time. Gambling is a source of recreational activity and with better luck a good source of income too.Gambling can give us lesson to be smart and strategical person.

Gambling gives us lessons and yes this is true, it gives you lessons on both sides either positive or negative. If you play on winning after wining and then going on in the game then you will have a positive image in mind while losing after losing and losing after wining gives two different lessons. You will be going on if you are wining and if you are not winning then you will attempt again as abortive attempts in your mind.

If we talk not about the advantages of gambling as a whole, but about the legalization of the gambling business, then, in my opinion, the most important advantage is that the share of the shadow turnover of money in the country will decrease and, as a consequence, the outflow of funds abroad will decrease. This will improve the local economy, because the State Treasury would have had significant cash inflows from tax deductions from entertainment establishments.

That's right, gambling should be regulated but not prohibited. When regulated properly it brings many benefits mentioned in this thread and if it's prohibited it makes contributions in shadow economy which is not good for any country. I haven't managed to find a more up-to-date info but what I've found is that in 2016 $1.4 billion in taxes and fees were paid by Nevada hotel-casino operators which equaled to around 42 percent of State General Fund revenues – more than any other industry brought to the budget of the state back then.

it is true that only people often see negative things and even when explained there is a positive impact they will not believe because it is already set, in their minds that gambling is a negative thing.

[Ewinsane]

but unfortunately, the benefits of gambling for ourselves does not exist, because the fact gambling just makes me addicted, and lost a lot of money.
It's my experience that's been playing gambling for a few years. even gambling could not make me a lot of money. but in other ways, I can make a lot of money.

If someone is defending this point and ask you that he would share some points where beneficiary behavior of gambling can be seen towards humans, believe me that man is just making you fool. You must answer him that doesn’t it be a source of destruction for humans? Doesn’t anyone who come here just bears pain and loss every time whenever he just play?

I think there are no such benefits of gambling for which one should continue his gambling or go for gambling. I think gambling makes the person poorer rather than making him rich and knowing this fact, I would not let anybody or myself to go for gambling. Yeah! He is making you fool because it is our common sense that makes us aware of the reality.

[btc-facebook]

Yes, it's benefit but the disadvantage are more than it's benefit.
Yes, gambling also entertainment but it's for adult not for young teenager !
Just make sure that you've prepare to loss before start to gamble because gambling is not fun as much as you think !

[Sengoko]

Yeah there are benefits of gambling but not for gambler. All the benefits are for casinos owners. They make huge money from gamblers because gambling is there business and they will never let you make money. When you realize you will lose all your money. They often borrow you money to continue gambling and finally they take all your property, car and even house.

[raven7886]

Benefits is that you can easily while your time, you can get many beverages to eat in casinos, if you win then it is bonus as you everything else you are getting is free and do not have to spend and above that if you win is like you are the luckiest of them all as mostly people will lose money. Also you can make some good buddies as well.

Well, regarding gaining new friends, that is possible but the caliber of friends you are gaining depends on the casino you are going to as you would not really be making ,much of reasonable friends from a local casino anyway except may be for that period you will always be going to gamble.

With respect to getting everything for free, I have never experienced that though, even though I usually do not gamble much or ask for anything but I doubt if that is the case. A true benefit from gambling is stress bursting. But most gamblers do get stress due to gambling. Instead of finding some benefits from gambling, those people do lose more to gambling.

The only benefit of gambler is that if they go to casinos and do not spend on gambling then they can enjoy free beverages, some stuff to eat etc and can enjoy the time in the cozy atmosphere and make new friends without paying anything. But if played then they do it on their risk unless luck is in their favor.

For me it is depending on the gambler on how he can see gambling for him. If the disadvantage is more greater than he can get from gambling. For me gambling has too much advantage for me not because I always win , because of the enjoyment and the time I can consume on playing gambling.

[drmarcobelli]

Yes, of course ti has.
I play for fun and for the possibility to win. Yea, probably not winning that much, but I am having fun.
Since I only bet what I can afford to lose. low amounts. It is great to be honest.

Yes the owners of these casino sites are earning a good income they have a good benefit from their sites. But with that the gamblers also get the benefits and that is the entertainment from these games. If they will come to the casino then they will get the enjoyment from there and that will make them healthy mentally.

In my opinion a bad thing has only deficits and no benefits. Gambling is a bad thing and there are no benefits for gamblers. Benefit is only for casino owners. They make huge profits daily because they will never let you win the game and when you leave casino you will leave all your money there and will return to home with empty pockets and even in debts.

[logicgate]

Well it's always been a fact that gambling isn't just something that could ruin your life. The points you've mentioned are basically all legit given that the gambler's attitude is correct. If you do it the right way, these benefits would come to you.

Till the time you have control over your emotions and know where to stop, gambling can bring you serious entertainment in your life.

  I always say this thing and I still would say the same thing that these people are just pretending that they have come for entertainment purpose and the main reason behind their coming to casino is different. They are also gamblers and by hearing this word we can easily come to know about the mindset of the gambler which is to earn money lie others are doing.

Yeah! You are speaking truth a hundred and ten percent in this regard and I very much agree with you because I have also examined these gamblers and I am very shocked that after knowing this thing and even experiencing, they still go for gambling like missing it would be a big mistake of their lives. These are the people who suffer the consequences at the end.

Brother it is just you and very few others who get entertainment from gambling. There is big list, rather so many lists which contain numbers of those people who have ruined their lives from gambling. They don’t know how harmful it is for you. People from different knowledge backgrounds are living in gambling world and they are making hard lives for themselves.

It just doesn't make sense to gamble for entertainment since there are free ways of getting entertained but some people on this forum and around us  think they have enough to afford wasting a few on getting entertained but in as much as i don't agree with them I have decided to understand things from their stand point and let them be.

[KingdomHearts]

I agree with the idea that those legal gambling places or huge casinos that can contribute to governments taxes. Aside from this the only positive thing it gives me is money, rarely give me money. Honestly, im more prone to lost than to win. I can consider entertainment because i usually gamble specially when im bored.

There will be hardly anything in this world which does not have any kind of advantages. It is just that in some cases, the disadvantages are more than that of the advantage and that because of which, most of the people think bad about such thing. Same is the case when we talk about gambling. It has some positive features as well but those are not sufficient to grab the attention of more people.

and in the gambling, there will be more disadvantages than the advantages like you said. it is like positive and negative in other things, bad and good and else. and if we know that gambling has more disadvantages than the advantages, it is better to stay away from the gambling because we can lose all the money without a chance to get that money back.

It Is just very unfortunate that a lot of people will still not realize that there is more disadvantage than advantage. It is not a bad thing to gamble but to gamble without using one's head is where the problems lies and if we want to really tell the truth to ourselves, virtually 90% of gamblers really do not use their head.

I have seen some threads on this section of the forum in which some people actually believed gambling could be a source of income. Man! That scared me!!

[maculeth]

there is a profit when you win gambling. but unfortunately your chances of winning are 50-50, so you can not just focus on gambling for a profit. gambling is just an entertainment.

Haven’t you ever heard about the faucets that the casinos offer to new players? These offers in real means are the basic practices which make the person a gambling addict because in them, the person doesn’t have to pay and when he loves the games and learns how to play every game, they ban him form faucets and thinking himself a good player, he starts gambling.

Faucets are indeed traditional ways for a certain gambling site do have which these things are one of the reasons to get a potential player on the site which would add up income because of it. People easily hooked up on the free money been given for test out thats why this is already a traditional thing to be seen.

Talking on benefits i can only say it would be just a stress reliever on players part and a new form of revenue on a particular country.

[Finestream]

Exactly.Chances of winning in gambling is very rare,and you could just lose your money in most of the time.So this one is really intended just for fun and entertainment and nothing else.And making it as a source of living is such a bad idea because  you will have no assurance if you will win or lose that time.Gambling is just a matter of luck and chance.

Yes i also think that benefits of gambling are there but very rare, very little number of people can get benefit from gambling, only those people who have good control over their emotions, and secondly who have good luck, because gambling totally depending on our luck, therefore it is too much important that we must have a good luck while playing gambling.

Its true, though we see some advantages with gambling it is still not a good idea to treat gambling for you to make money because its literally not a good source of money because of its risk. Gambling will make us happy even a short period of time but at the end of the day when you lose big money you will still feel sad because you made a mistake.

[setupbounds]

Just because something can contribute to society doesn't make it good. There are good and bad parts to everything, casinos included. Yes casinos generate tax, and some of these casinos put this money to humanitarian causes (very few). Overall, the contributions of the gambling industry to society are likely to be negative, particularly casinos that allow problem gamblers to continue playing.

And moreover, it is actually contributing negatively the more to the society than positively. Look at the number of people who have allowed gambling to wreck them as well as those family members of the said people who have been affected just by one single person nonchalant attitude to controlling himself or herself when it comes to gambling. Al these things add up and if we are to look at the good it actually offers, it is far less than the negativity it causes.

[ricardobs]

This won't help mate as most of the people here will have an expected feed back. Although we already know that there's benefit in gambling but otherwise we don't have the same feathers.
"Gambling is not good" , "gambling is harmful" etc.

No doubt gambling is bad, gambling is harmful and there are many bad effects of gambling on the whole. Gambling is beneficial for those who are experts and they know the tricks to win the bet. They can make big money in seconds, while other who has no or very little experience of gambling can lose all their money. Gambling is good only for experts.

I also believe this is true, but the problem is gambling is a form of competition, and humans will always be competitive. Whilst there is one human who thinks he is better than another, a gambling type circumstance will always form. e.g. I bet you I can do this, and you can't. It's only natural that systems form around this trait to make it easier to wager.

I would actually call it greed rather than competition most of the time. It would have been classified as competition if it is a real game that you are playing with others, and in that case, at least, we can say you are competing, but for game you are betting against the house and you have more chances of losing than winning, I cannot classify that as competition in anyway and anyone who ends up not controlling himself or herself and ends up losing so much as a result of addiction just got greedy at some point.

[setupbounds]

As my experience, most of gambling activity has high risk !
Let's take a look on math when I have learned at school , explain that the chance of loss are greater than winning so it's difficult to find people who got rich because of gambling ( for who able to rich from gambling, they already overcome the risk ! )

it's hard to say that they overcome the risk because I don't think that they want to risk to lose their money or maybe some of them really risk their money and suddenly, their luck is comes to them so they can win the games with easy and they can win a big money. I think even if we know that gambling has high risk, there are a people that still play the games and they agree with the risk. it does not stop people from playing the games because they want to try their luck.

Those who know the risk, act on keeping the whole risk idea handy and not letting themselves be a victim of the risk, are those who simply know how to control themselves, or just see what they are doing as a fun activity. No one sure does not like the sound of winning, but focusing more on that at the detriment of the huge risk that abounds is a terrible mistake for anyone which I believe is even the last thing any one will ever want to be trapped in.

[andreijoaquin]

For me the only benefits of gambling is when I play, I was able to release my stress, I got focus to gambling and somehow forgot my worries. I know it's kinda more stressful if I lost big amount of money so I only play using fixed capital then after it exhaust, I stopped and do other stuff.

I think there is one benefit of gambling and that is the end of life. If you are tired of this life, start gambling, lose your money because there are no wins at all go into debts and suicide. This is the verdict of gambling, you cannot change it. I don’t think that there is any other advantage or benefit of gambling. As I know all gamblers lose their money at the end.

It is right that gambling is not good and it is harmful. Can you count any benefit of gambling. It is like drugs addiction and when you are addicted then quitting will not be easy for you like drugs. Both are the most harmful things in a society and such people have no respect in their societies and even in their homes. Now tell me what is the benefit of gambling besides losing your money?

[semobo]

For me the only benefits of gambling is when I play, I was able to release my stress, I got focus to gambling and somehow forgot my worries. I know it's kinda more stressful if I lost big amount of money so I only play using fixed capital then after it exhaust, I stopped and do other stuff.

Stress busting is also can be a benefits from gambling but most important thing we have chance to earn some big money if we are just lucky.But don't do over olay when we are keep losing then it will leads to serious problems financially.

[supercanada1]

As my experience, most of gambling activity has high risk !
Let's take a look on math when I have learned at school , explain that the chance of loss are greater than winning so it's difficult to find people who got rich because of gambling ( for who able to rich from gambling, they already overcome the risk ! )

it's hard to say that they overcome the risk because I don't think that they want to risk to lose their money or maybe some of them really risk their money and suddenly, their luck is comes to them so they can win the games with easy and they can win a big money. I think even if we know that gambling has high risk, there are a people that still play the games and they agree with the risk. it does not stop people from playing the games because they want to try their luck.

Those who know the risk, act on keeping the whole risk idea handy and not letting themselves be a victim of the risk, are those who simply know how to control themselves, or just see what they are doing as a fun activity. No one sure does not like the sound of winning, but focusing more on that at the detriment of the huge risk that abounds is a terrible mistake for anyone which I believe is even the last thing any one will ever want to be trapped in.

Although everything has risk and you can’t just go way from this risky factor but you know gambling is worse than everything else. There are two losses for you. One is the gambling itself and the next one is risky. If you select this option for making your life, believe me this would be the worst scenario and most weird decision for you to make up for living. Better is to get up.

Today evening, I was spending some free time by surfing various websites. Suddenly a website caught my attention which talks about the benefits of gambling. I was surprised because negative thoughts about gambling is so common, but positive thoughts are rare to find. So I went ahead and read the entire article. The article actually talks about the positive sides of gambling which I believe everyone should know and it made a lot of sense to me!

The article lists 7 points as the benefits of gambling:
1. Gambling Stimulates Local Economies
2. Gambling Is a Form of Entertainment
3. Gambling Can Take Place in a Safe Environment
4. You Could Win
5. Gambling Contributes to Government Budgets
6. Gambling Creates New Forms of Revenue
7. Gambling is a Form of Game Play

The article is actually a tight slap on the popular belief that "gambling is harmful to the society". So I encourage everyone on this forum to read the article and understand it, especially the non-gamblers! Gambling is not a fools-heaven, it's just another business and an opportunity to the gamblers! Hope this article would clear your mind!

Article Link: https://www.benefitsof.org/what-are-the-benefits-of-gambling/

Yes, it's really the benefits of gambling but now look things differently: What's the price you (gambler) have to pay? You lose, casino wins, that means their employees and casino owners get money from your own pocket + goverment gets money from casino. Finally those pockets are filled but a pocket of a lot of gamblers is empty, that doesn't worth.
It's not a way of profit too but it can be a very, very relaxing if you play for fun.

And that's what number 2 that I personally did when I need to relax from whole day work and need for entertainment.
I'm not chasing money on gambling because I know the more you gambled the more you have to lose and make your pocket easy to empty.
That's right, you could not treat gambling as a source of income that chasing money on this, and the only thing that gambling brings benefits is only entertainments.

[Aleister Crowley]

For me the only benefits of gambling is when I play, I was able to release my stress, I got focus to gambling and somehow forgot my worries. I know it's kinda more stressful if I lost big amount of money so I only play using fixed capital then after it exhaust, I stopped and do other stuff.

Stress busting is also can be a benefits from gambling but most important thing we have chance to earn some big money if we are just lucky.But don't do over olay when we are keep losing then it will leads to serious problems financially.

but I think it's not a good move when it comes to stress., because when we stress it will only add to the problem, because we can not gamble with a calm brain, when we do not get quiet when gambling, the game we play will be chaotic and can bring us closer to bankrupt,..

That's the point,, its better to deal with gambling as a sort of entertainment, never to play gambling with some emotions around, it will not help us to decide properly but it will just add stress and miscalculations, when we are not thinking well we are so aggressive and we will lose in a short period of
time, there's a high chance to win when your minds are free and just enjoying your game, always have a good mentality if we are aiming not only to win but also to enjoy our gambling activity.

Absolutely! Gambling is a way of entertainment only. Any person gambling to change their life is not a proper way of gambling. When i visited Macau few years back, I played few games including slot machines just to experience live gambling. I didn't play games to change my life and status overnight.

So the bad thing is within the mankind and not within the industry. Every business is built to make profit and those profits are coming from the pockets of the consumers only. Every MCdonald burger you eat, the money goes to the company only. Same for gambling as well.

[GoodLuck2]

I agree with the idea that those legal gambling places or huge casinos that can contribute to governments taxes. Aside from this the only positive thing it gives me is money, rarely give me money. Honestly, im more prone to lost than to win. I can consider entertainment because i usually gamble specially when im bored.

There will be hardly anything in this world which does not have any kind of advantages. It is just that in some cases, the disadvantages are more than that of the advantage and that because of which, most of the people think bad about such thing. Same is the case when we talk about gambling. It has some positive features as well but those are not sufficient to grab the attention of more people.

and in the gambling, there will be more disadvantages than the advantages like you said. it is like positive and negative in other things, bad and good and else. and if we know that gambling has more disadvantages than the advantages, it is better to stay away from the gambling because we can lose all the money without a chance to get that money back.

It Is just very unfortunate that a lot of people will still not realize that there is more disadvantage than advantage. It is not a bad thing to gamble but to gamble without using one's head is where the problems lies and if we want to really tell the truth to ourselves, virtually 90% of gamblers really do not use their head.

I have seen some threads on this section of the forum in which some people actually believed gambling could be a source of income. Man! That scared me!!

I see no advantage of gambling at least not a single real advantage for which we can say or suggest others to play gambling. However, I see tons of disadvantages of gambling and I think not only but every single person on this forum would be well aware of these disadvantages so no need to mention them. However the biggest of them are the waste of time and money.

[jayhawk1]

Yes, it's benefit but the disadvantage are more than it's benefit.
Yes, gambling also entertainment but it's for adult not for young teenager !
Just make sure that you've prepare to loss before start to gamble because gambling is not fun as much as you think !

For me it is depending on the gambler on how he can see gambling for him. If the disadvantage is more greater than he can get from gambling. For me gambling has too much advantage for me not because I always win , because of the enjoyment and the time I can consume on playing gambling.

Besides luck one major thing is your knowledge about a particular game, if you are good in a game and all the tricks are known to you then has greater chances to win. A person with little knowledge will proceed for wrong attempts that are called abortive attempts and a person with knowledge can simply go through gambling easily. So yes, gambling has a lot of benefits besides its huge problems for people with little knowledge.

Yes, benefits of gambling still exists, the fact that a gambler enjoys the game it can be a good entertainment, relaxation and a stress reliever after a long day of work. The most good thing if a gambler won the game and bring the big profit to his/her family.

[Mastsetad]

One of the main benefit of gambling is that the economy of the country can get an additional income item and at the same time all owners of this business will also be in an excellent position. The flow of financial interest from this sphere of business will be able to close some holes in the state budget. Thus, it will be possible for some countries to reduce the amount of money held in the International Monetary Fund.

Main thing in gambling is greed for making more and more money, but a gambler should know that they will never make money from regular gambling. The end is always worst and when they return to their homes they leave all their money on a gambling table. I don’t think that a bad thing has any benefit. I have no example in my life that a gambler has made lot of money from gambling.

[noah tall]

but unfortunately, the benefits of gambling for ourselves does not exist, because the fact gambling just makes me addicted, and lost a lot of money.
It's my experience that's been playing gambling for a few years. even gambling could not make me a lot of money. but in other ways, I can make a lot of money.

If someone is defending this point and ask you that he would share some points where beneficiary behavior of gambling can be seen towards humans, believe me that man is just making you fool. You must answer him that doesn’t it be a source of destruction for humans? Doesn’t anyone who come here just bears pain and loss every time whenever he just play?

People have already got a lot of benefit from bitcoin, but most of the people got the profit because of the good luck, if you are luck you can really get some good profit from gambling, but it is very hard to say that if someone is getting profit from bitcoin because of their skill and education, because in gambling we mostly depend on our luck.

You are right and fun is the only benefit of gambling, bt the wrong thing is that when you lose your money you will become stress and will feel upset. Therefore I think that gambling for long time has no benefits and the end is always worst. Addicted gamblers lose all their money and leaves themselves in debts. To cover debts gambler becomes criminal.

yes, we should aware of gambling because of the disadvantages of gambling. we really need to give attention for not playing gambling every day and if we really want to play gambling, then we need to know how much money we need to spend. and besides that, we need to know about the limit in the gambling so we don't have to lose all of our money and we can leave the places as soon as possible.

if you do gambling with the aim of filling in leisure time in the absence of a target if lost is not a problem and if win is a gain gained but different for those who do gambling fate in gambling and who do expect victory.

gambling is a very good time pass especially casino games but invests only how much you can afford and don't take your loss personally and never chase your lost money then only you can enjoy the gambling games. when you start to play to get back your lost think it is your beginning of an addiction.

high risk that must be faced from gambling must have been prepared ,, and do not until we fall deeper because that often happens if we can not control emotion well ..

the right strategy and calculation should be done when the brain is clear and not thinking about anything that will interfere with our concentration when we gamble

It can never be a source of entertainment. People have heard a lot of people and their stories that have shown us best of the moments enjoying their lives. So we need to think over it. All those people who feel entertainment or fun in gambling and they focus on it more than any other entertainment source, they must review their decision. Best of luck to all those who are currently getting ruined.

[f150]

yes there are benefits when gambling is relieving stress and if win will benefit, but if gambling as a hobby will surely bring destruction for those who have a hobby like that.

Not all the gamblers become upset after loss and return again with a win. This is not a common and necessary thing that a gambler gets upset after losing, a real gambler will think for better result in the next game and will not lose hope of wining game. Gambling has many advantages and that is why it is alive in many countries and common in the European countries.

If you are asking my honest opinion then I would undoubtedly say that there are no such benefits of gambling on this planet earth but if you would ask me for some advertisement for gambling for which you would pay me, I think then I would be able to mention two or three self-made benefits of gambling which also will be lies in reality.

[betMaster]

No one can argue that gambling is one of the most enjoyable hobbies / ways of having fun , yet that hobby could turn into an habit or an addiction and ruin the life of people if not practiced with moderation . And of course anyone can win at gambling with a bit of luck but sadly the edge is always in the house's favor and winning have become much harder in a world of online websites where developers made the games in a certain way that winning is almost impossible . But most importantly in my opinion , gambling is a time killer and whenever i feel lonely or not having anything important to do -> gambling is the where to go especially that you can play bet on anything you want without even having to get up from your chair !!
Visit Sportsbet.io and you'll have an unique experience of online gambling , with a real chance to win money .

I only say those gamblers to be professionals who know when to stop and leave casino because these gamblers are actually the ones who don’t have to face the consequences in the later part of their lives.

[xandra]

My bet is number two and number four. Number 2 ,yes I agree that gambling is a form of entertainment and it should not be a source if income before anything else you should know how to control your self. Number four that is why I like to gamble because it give me chances to get money and that is why many people get addicted with it.

[sheldonnnn]

It increases local economies. First and foremost, it increases local economies. Casinos pump new money into the area. They attract tourism from all over the world and create jobs for the local community. Also it has significance of social benefits as a form of recreation and entertainment.  I think it has served as one of the premier platform of entertainment known to human being.

[Turan100]

its depends on luck and some skills else you could make profit after losing a lot , what i can say is the gambling is not safest way to make profit .

A person with control to his emotion usually doesn't get addicted to anything. The problem starts when someone's greed starts taking over his emotion. That's where the addiction starts. Till the time gambling is taken as a form of entertainment, it's all cool. But it must not be considered as a source of income.

[Worty316]

my favorite is https://fortunejack.com/ best part is live dealers live tables live games. Also video poker dice video everything else. I like the live aspect becouse at least then i dont feal like im being singled out and cheated compared to going against the "computer block chain algo" At least with a live dealer i have the sense that im not getting boned indavidually cuz theres others in the same room.

[rollburst.com]

gambling should be done only for fun and for nothing else...

[imsotiredofmoviereboots]

I think only the government benefits in the gambling industry besides the owner. Yes, those other things said by OP is true but most of the time it's not really happening. Negative effects still dominates in the gambling world.

[bitcad4u]

At first,we all like to play a game.This increases over interest in gambling.You had shared some benifits of gambling.But you have keep some thing in mind,before start a gambling.
1.You should ready to face a both loss and win.
2.You should consider gambling as a game.
3.If you keep on playing after a winning,you may lose in the consecutive game.

[Worty316]

i throw 100 a month into gambling. its just fun.

This is how the gambling business actually works so if you have enough money to make your own casino. You can start building it somehow but most of these people are sacrificing something in order for them to get where they are right now. And it takes a lot of connection of powerful people before you can get on to that level. So, i guess being rich is still not that good though but you have to manage it carefully if you want it to become successful.

I think only the government benefits in the gambling industry besides the owner. Yes, those other things said by OP is true but most of the time it's not really happening. Negative effects still dominates in the gambling world.

Even though gambling portrayed negatively with some people but their is still benefits given from gambling.First, it is the happiness felt upon winning, it can be a good source of stress reliever. Second, if you are lucky enough gambling can be a source of income. Lastly, through gambling we gain more friends.

[Kirito-kun]

For me the only benefits of gambling is when I play, I was able to release my stress, I got focus to gambling and somehow forgot my worries. I know it's kinda more stressful if I lost big amount of money so I only play using fixed capital then after it exhaust, I stopped and do other stuff.

Stress busting is also can be a benefits from gambling but most important thing we have chance to earn some big money if we are just lucky.But don't do over olay when we are keep losing then it will leads to serious problems financially.

We have the same thoughts, I also don't think so that gambling could be beneficial. Everyone says just for entertainment but how you could you possibly entertain if you always lose and make it you mad isn't? Who knows because its based on my own experience maybe yours is different and you maybe win once before. Anyway, for me it is not beneficial you can't blame me.

[malikusama]

No.3 is not a benefit at all, it is just the condition or environment needed for gambling.

I can't understand how it contributes to the government budget?
Lottery is not a part of gambling, you can't count in with gambling.
And yes there are very few people who pay taxes on their gambling winning.

The only benefit that i got over these years of gambling a part from money was mainly friendship . I have tied so many friendships these past years in either casinos i go to or cyber coffee shops where i usually go to study the future sports events and speculate about them , and through these years i have made friends who are very good at speculating what will happen especially with the sport games that they follow the most , having such people in your life doesn't only make it easier for you to speculate and place bets , but also to find another way of spending your time and loose the whole of it on gambling .

Visit BookiePro.fun and you'll be able to find a variety of games to bet on , as a veteran gambler i enjoyed using it and it has a unique user experience that you won't experience elsewhere than at BookiePro.fun !

For me, I generally view playing those gambling games is a good sources of fun and second impressions was just a lucky profit. If other people thought that it will give them sustainable profit along with the fun amusements they had, its totally inappropriate idea. Gambling if not managed and handled well through emotional control, that's your way of being addicted which could lead you to loss of financial stability.

[ricardobs]

For me the only benefits of gambling is when I play, I was able to release my stress, I got focus to gambling and somehow forgot my worries. I know it's kinda more stressful if I lost big amount of money so I only play using fixed capital then after it exhaust, I stopped and do other stuff.

Stress busting is also can be a benefits from gambling but most important thing we have chance to earn some big money if we are just lucky.But don't do over olay when we are keep losing then it will leads to serious problems financially.

If you are asking my honest opinion then I would undoubtedly say that there are no such benefits of gambling on this planet earth but if you would ask me for some advertisement for gambling for which you would pay me, I think then I would be able to mention two or three self-made benefits of gambling which also will be lies in reality.

It is not the way you are discussing about gambling with your friend; we need not to ignore something here. If it was of no use then why governments allow it and how they are getting benefit from casinos and other places where gambling occurs in the form of tax. Similarly when you sit for gambling you feel comfortable and it entertains you and changes all your worries into fun.

[coinfinger]

yes there are benefits when gambling is relieving stress and if win will benefit, but if gambling as a hobby will surely bring destruction for those who have a hobby like that.

Yeah you are right. If you gamble just for fun and not for making money then its ok you will be relaxed but not in online gambling. If you visit a traditional casino with your friends and drink dance and a little bit gambling you will be mentally relaxed, but as you mentioned that regular gambling will ruin your life and the life of your family. So keep avoid from regular gambling.

im going to roll dice today. I like it. Auto rolling , tweeking the mechanics.

[henmark]

but unfortunately, the benefits of gambling for ourselves does not exist, because the fact gambling just makes me addicted, and lost a lot of money.
It's my experience that's been playing gambling for a few years. even gambling could not make me a lot of money. but in other ways, I can make a lot of money.

If someone is defending this point and ask you that he would share some points where beneficiary behavior of gambling can be seen towards humans, believe me that man is just making you fool. You must answer him that doesn’t it be a source of destruction for humans? Doesn’t anyone who come here just bears pain and loss every time whenever he just play?

People have already got a lot of benefit from bitcoin, but most of the people got the profit because of the good luck, if you are luck you can really get some good profit from gambling, but it is very hard to say that if someone is getting profit from bitcoin because of their skill and education, because in gambling we mostly depend on our luck.

You are right and fun is the only benefit of gambling, bt the wrong thing is that when you lose your money you will become stress and will feel upset. Therefore I think that gambling for long time has no benefits and the end is always worst. Addicted gamblers lose all their money and leaves themselves in debts. To cover debts gambler becomes criminal.

gambling is a very good time pass especially casino games but invests only how much you can afford and don't take your loss personally and never chase your lost money then only you can enjoy the gambling games. when you start to play to get back your lost think it is your beginning of an addiction.

I know gambling is best time killing activity to do but why one should do such an activity which becomes a threat for his life in the later part of his life. I only say those gamblers to be professionals who know when to stop and leave casino because these gamblers are actually the ones who don’t have to face the consequences in the later part of their lives.

I also have some other things that I want to share with you so that you can become aware of these things and I am sure that you would find them time killing spills. First of all, I want to share with you the activity that I myself do when I have nothing to waste my time upon. I pick up the newspaper and start reading about the daily affair of our country.

Many people are losing money through only because of regular gambling online, for a person gambling is just for fun machine to enjoy our weekends. Otherwise, if you consider the gambling in money making then definitely you are going to lose a lot of money, so it is always good to consider gambling as just for fun with the little amount of money for investment.

People this days wants fast money and thus they think that gambling is the best source as you do not have to do anything just play any of the games and you can either win 100% of the money or lose it . But they forget that mostly they will be on the losing end rather than winning it.

Frankly gambling is not a method of earning money. It is a form of entertainment only. Those who understand the difference are the ones who stays addiction free. Just like any other business, gambling businesses also require profit and that comes from the players. That's an open truth and every player knows about it. If some foolish fellow takes gambling to earn his/her living expense, that it's his/her fault. Gambling can change your life in two ways, firstly by winning jackpot and investing that money in some profitable source can make your life superior and secondly by becoming addicted. The choice is always yours!

[spiker777]

Of course, there's a lot of benefits to gambling, but they all depend on context. Of course, there's the social aspect, coming together of friends and family, or even communities in national sporting events. Certain games also improve human cognition, contextual reasoning abilities and lateral thinking. However, there is always a trade-off, addiction can happen and that can be destructive, though rare.

Today evening, I was spending some free time by surfing various websites. Suddenly a website caught my attention which talks about the benefits of gambling. I was surprised because negative thoughts about gambling is so common, but positive thoughts are rare to find. So I went ahead and read the entire article. The article actually talks about the positive sides of gambling which I believe everyone should know and it made a lot of sense to me!

The article lists 7 points as the benefits of gambling:
1. Gambling Stimulates Local Economies
2. Gambling Is a Form of Entertainment
3. Gambling Can Take Place in a Safe Environment
4. You Could Win
5. Gambling Contributes to Government Budgets
6. Gambling Creates New Forms of Revenue
7. Gambling is a Form of Game Play

The article is actually a tight slap on the popular belief that "gambling is harmful to the society". So I encourage everyone on this forum to read the article and understand it, especially the non-gamblers! Gambling is not a fools-heaven, it's just another business and an opportunity to the gamblers! Hope this article would clear your mind!

Article Link: https://www.benefitsof.org/what-are-the-benefits-of-gambling/

These are good benefits  . These are good in expense of your own loses. Imagine one man’s lose will produce 7 benefits. I wonder how many gamblers are willing to lose deliberately to produce these benefits? Anyway, they listed the benefits but the disadvantages and loses they did not.

You do realise impressio is a proven scam right? Why are you still advertising them on the forum?

Anyway, people do not consider the law of averages when making their individual contributions to the distribution matrix. As such, you cannot attribute benefits or drawbacks to individual persons, but can attribute a set of these to the broad data points in general.

[STT]

I find 5 and 6 completely irrelevant. I couldn't care less about the government benefiting from my loss.
Is gambling a good thing? Of course! It has its  benefits the most important being 2 and 4. It's entertaining and it gives you a chance to win with this chance being rather high in some games like poker.

Think of it in reverse then because the government has a bill to pay no matter what and a dollar paid here is less taken elsewhere.   Think of it like a sales tax but generally this tax is only taken from 'winnings'.  How government extracts tax revenue from an economy is important business to the growth of a country.   I'd really rather see the government tax voluntary and luxury activities then in any way restrict or discourage employment or general commerce within its national borders.

We do know that many countries mis-manage their private business with too much government, it can cause the entire country to become poorer as workers have less to spend and in turn less able to support other business.    There is the butterfly effect in action even to something considered a side economy like gambling, it does matter.   If tax revenue is raised in this way, its very arguable as a positive contributor to the overall health of a nation and avoids those least able to pay any tax to have to suffer that burden while still attracting big rollers to take a gamble.

Why you don’t see the damage over this gambling thing? Don’t you think this is all depended on luck and we all know it very well that luck doesn’t accompany you every day? From weeks and month may be two or hardly three day days can be lucky. So if someone gamble on these days, he may be good in his dealing but what for the other days. Who will be retrieving that loss?

No No, the addiction is not rare it is most common and it was experienced by most of the gamblers but the level of addiction is different we may hold our emotions and can control our gambling timing too.But I don't think the gambling will improve human cognition, contextual reasoning abilities and lateral thinking.Because most of us are doing gambling for money.

[Pan Troglodytes]

Oh it is mainly point 2. for me. I play only for the entartainment of it, and in a good company to that. I don't quite understand other points, meaning I obviously understand the semantic meaning, but I can hardly imagine that those other points offer any value to me.

1. Not really sure about that.
2. Isn't this supposed to be the point of gambling? You can't make money from gambling. Some did, but most can't. It's still debatable that gambling is entertaining. A moment of entertainment in exchange of that much money? Not a good deal if you ask me. Watching Netflix is way entertaining.
3. Not really. I guess it's "safe" when you're inside the casino but anywhere but that, it's not really safe. Gambling happens in other places and when someone gets hot-headed, I don't think it's exactly a safe place.
4. See, "could" that means not "always".
5. Honestly this is the only "benefit" of gambling that I can see. After you have lost money, just remember that some of those money will actually be given back to the society. It's the casino's way to have a good reputation and not be kicked out of the country.
6. Yep.
7. Ugh? Is that a benefit at all?

Some of us use gambling as a stress reliever.  No matter if I win or lose I end up having a fun time and forgetting about my daily life.  It makes watching sport matches much more exciting.  I feel that the less stressed out we are the longer we live.  I mean we all die anyways so might as well have a good time and do what makes us feel good.

[glider101]

Playing the dice game is a great way to pass the time, and if you play it conservatively you cant lose all your money.
Its nice that I can roll the dice and only risk a few cents- instead of when I bet sports and there is a few mbtc minimum (chance to lose more).

Totally agree that you get more playtime for your money, but i think a lot of players like the thrills of playing slots with Crypto and hope to get to the bonus rounds where they can get up to 1000x bet.  But of course its also a really easy way to loose your money fast. however you should never bet for more money than you can afford to loose.

It all depends on how long your roll your dice because some people try to roll for long and end up losing a lot of money in this game. So if you play just for fun then you should be playing for a short while, not like few hours then you may control your losses with smaller bets. But anytime you temp to gain more money and go for bigger bets then you will surely lose more money at the end. I usually roll manually for sometime dice and stop within an hours time because when you play manually you will not like to roll for longer hours.

Fun is only in dice game for me and this is the only game that I use to play in gambling. I never gambled for making money because I know that gambling is not a source of making money but a way of losing money. When you lose your money in seconds how it can be beneficial? There are only deficits of gambling and that is that you will lose your money and respect as well.

I too play dice manually most of the time because with auto betting, making thousands of rolls, you increase your chances to hit a really long losing streak. I play with big multipliers, 99x and higher, and I find it entertaining hitting that 0.00 or 99.99 when you were aiming for that.

I can't say about others, but for me gambling definitely has its benefits because it helps me to relax and to work more effectively afterwards. One day I thought, what if I will spend those one-two hours I usually spend on gambling during a day on something which is more productive? And wasn't gambling during that day, but I found out that I had accomplished less than normally in the end of the day.

The chances of wining are high in dice but also what you win is relatively very small percentage of the amount you risk it. SO say you keep on playing and in between keep on losing so overall you may still be in negative as when you lose the amount is 100% lost and not just a % of it.

For me we do not need to do anything when it comes to gambling game. For me there is no point in playing gambling because it will only make us experience the destruction, in fact that when we play gambling then we will not get anything. We will only experience setbacks and we will also lose many chances to become successful people. rest assured that we must do another way that is far more useful and make a lot of money.

Playing with low percentage isn't a great idea in gambling as there is no way you win a 10% bet 10 times in a row and if you lose a single bet in the middle you are in a loss which kind of sucks. It always better to play with 50% chance or play with a lower bankroll at 1% as for me till now i have always won 1 bet out of 100 rolls in 1% which is good for roi

I depends on the multiplier you choose to play with. You can have the exactly opposite situation when you play with high multipliers (this is what I usually do, for example). Yes, the chances of winning are very slim if you bet 1,000 sats with 9900x (or 0.01% win chance), but if you win, you win 0.099 BTC, or over $600, risking only 6 cents. I personally never bet 1k sats with such a big multiplier, but what I do is I bet with 50-100 sats and that's a nice feeling when you win $30-$60 in one click.

Of course I do this for relaxing purposes only, and, to tell the truth, my overall profit in dice is negative, but this game really helps me to relax and that's why it's definitely beneficial for me.

Not all the gamblers become upset after loss and return again with a win. This is not a common and necessary thing that a gambler gets upset after losing, a real gambler will think for better result in the next game and will not lose hope of wining game. Gambling has many advantages and that is why it is alive in many countries and common in the European countries.

Yeah there are benefits of gambling but not for gamblers. Gambling is beneficial only for casino owners, because they took all the money of Gamblers. Did you see any person who won a lot of money in gambling and now he is spending a happy life with his family?  I don't think so that there is any benefit of gambling.it is a bad thing and a bad thing has no benefits.

Well, it is a great way if you actually are gambling with what you can afford to lose. Really, I spend a lot of time on my PC doing some work, and since I have some little fund on by freebitco.in account, I just use some script to the roll with very little bet which if I am spending about 12 hours on my system daily, getting as low as 6000 sats on top of them all is not bad since I am not actually working for it anyway.

If everything goes which the chances would be as long as 40 streaks, it is a chance I can take and like I said, it is nothing I cannot afford to lose. Generally, benefit of gambling is far fetched, we all know the chance of losing is high anyway but we still find ourselves going ahead.

From your post it might look like it's possible to have a stable income of 6000 sats daily running a betting script. I personally doubt that because the possibility of existence of such a script has been disproved many times on this forum.

If everything goes which the chances would be as long as 40 streaks, it is a chance I can take and like I said, it is nothing I cannot afford to lose. Generally, benefit of gambling is far fetched, we all know the chance of losing is high anyway but we still find ourselves going ahead.

I don't know about the multiplier you use, but with 2x it would take thousands of BTC on your balance to survive 40 reds in a row with just 1 satoshi as initial bet. I understand that the script you are using is most likely not a straight forward martingale, but what I feel certain of is that however sophisticated a script was it would be impossible to make a stable income with it.

in dice games, you will have a bigger chance to lose than the other games because you don't know what will happen in the next round so you might get loss your money. and in other games, you cannot get the benefits from gambling besides of getting lost the money and if you cannot leave the gambling, then don't blame other people to not give a warning for you. although there are any benefits of gambling, you cannot make any money on gambling and you know that the chance to lose your money is bigger.

The chances of wining are high in dice but also what you win is relatively very small percentage of the amount you risk it. SO say you keep on playing and in between keep on losing so overall you may still be in negative as when you lose the amount is 100% lost and not just a % of it.

in dice games, you will have a bigger chance to lose than the other games because you don't know what will happen in the next round so you might get loss your money. and in other games, you cannot get the benefits from gambling besides of getting lost the money and if you cannot leave the gambling, then don't blame other people to not give a warning for you. although there are any benefits of gambling, you cannot make any money on gambling and you know that the chance to lose your money is bigger.

There is 50-50 chances of losing and winning in gambling games but if you are playing dice game physically. But if you are playing dice game using onling gambling sites, were they have an edge and most of the time they will not let you make a big money from dice gambling. I think we should try to play dice online in physical casino and not online.

Well, it is a great way if you actually are gambling with what you can afford to lose. Really, I spend a lot of time on my PC doing some work, and since I have some little fund on by freebitco.in account, I just use some script to the roll with very little bet which if I am spending about 12 hours on my system daily, getting as low as 6000 sats on top of them all is not bad since I am not actually working for it anyway.

From your post it might look like it's possible to have a stable income of 6000 sats daily running a betting script. I personally doubt that because the possibility of existence of such a script has been disproved many times on this forum.

If everything goes which the chances would be as long as 40 streaks, it is a chance I can take and like I said, it is nothing I cannot afford to lose. Generally, benefit of gambling is far fetched, we all know the chance of losing is high anyway but we still find ourselves going ahead.

I don't know about the multiplier you use, but with 2x it would take thousands of BTC on your balance to survive 40 reds in a row with just 1 satoshi as initial bet. I understand that the script you are using is most likely not a straight forward martingale, but what I feel certain of is that however sophisticated a script was it would be impossible to make a stable income with it.

Well for those who have lots of money it has benefits, not all kinds/levels of people have the same point of view in life. Some people gamble for leisure, fun and forget the outside world. While others gamble to have money that sometimes they become stress in thinking how they will return all the money they spent but of course in gambling if there is a loser it has a winner. The benefits of the winner is it makes them feel happy, alive and  increases their money.

Gambling is not that bad. It depends on people on how they will gonna take the gambling.

[myown2cents]

Some of us use gambling as a stress reliever.  No matter if I win or lose I end up having a fun time and forgetting about my daily life.  It makes watching sport matches much more exciting.  I feel that the less stressed out we are the longer we live.  I mean we all die anyways so might as well have a good time and do what makes us feel good.

Absolutely.

It is totally nonsense that somebody gambles for stress relief. I think gambling is the big reason for high stress. When you lose money you will feel frustration and you will be mentally disturbed. Then how is it possible that one gamble for reducing stress? I don’t believe this. I think gambling has no benefits at all. It is totally destruction for the whole of your family.

Very right points in support of gambling and I agree with most of it.

For those, who are not addicted and play it in control, there are benefits only. Even if they loose money, they get all the fun and thrill while playing. All of us spend money on entertainment like for movies and all even after knowing that the money spent is not going to come back.

It all depends on how long your roll your dice because some people try to roll for long and end up losing a lot of money in this game. So if you play just for fun then you should be playing for a short while, not like few hours then you may control your losses with smaller bets. But anytime you temp to gain more money and go for bigger bets then you will surely lose more money at the end. I usually roll manually for sometime dice and stop within an hours time because when you play manually you will not like to roll for longer hours.

Yeah, gambling always needs to do with some caution and try not to ever get caught in trying to win something huge than normal while still knowing very well that the possibility of losing everything either you are doing in short period or not, is still huge.

I have never been a fan of rolling manually anyway since I do not have that chance, so the usage of script has always been the thing for me. The good thing about the likes of cryptogames is that you can also set it to keep rolling normally for you. The benefit of gambling i can see though is only when you end up winning a huge money that even you never expected, and then value the winning enough to go use it for something good than gambling it over again.

But it is not the benefits that we are looking in gambling we are after for profits and not about having fun or thrills, like who needs that, we are not all rich kid to be happy about getting that benefits. Most of the gamblers are just after money because we need it for our everyday lives and to buy the things we need and want.

It is right that you can spend some time in casino with your friend and play just for fun and not for earning and winning money, otherwise it will not be in your favor. Time in casino can reduce your tension and you will get some free time. In my mind that is the only benefit of gambling. One benefit of gambling is that when you win big money and quit gambling forever.

Gambling means losing money no matter what kind of gambling you play. The result will be in favor of only casino owners and all gamblers leave their money in casinos. The only benefit of gambling in my mind is win huge money, quit and never gamble again. Start a respectable business and live your life happily with your family. On other benefits of gambling.

[dupee419]

Yes, you are correct about that, Gambling does have a lot of benefits, but there are also downsides with gambling, and some gamblers out there know it, it may benefit the economy, but first things first, will it give you benefits as well? I know that it is entertaining, and yeah you can earn while enjoying the game, but as this continues to happen addiction comes along to you as well, it's like a drug perhaps, addiction is dangerous, addiction can actually lead you to stupid decisions, and that is why I don't think that gambling will only bring out positive things, there are its side effects as well.

[STT]

Playing with low percentage isn't a great idea in gambling as there is no way you win a 10% bet 10 times in a row and if you lose a single bet in the middle you are in a loss which kind of sucks. It always better to play with 50% chance or play with a lower bankroll at 1% as for me till now i have always won 1 bet out of 100 rolls in 1% which is good for roi

On identical odds and bet, it would combine in quite a simple way.    10% as decimal would be 0.10 and then 10 instances with the same result would be 0.10 ^10 which is like 1 millioneth of 1 percent.

0.50 ^ 10 also is a very small number, same as flipping heads on a coin ten times in a row.  Nobody should expect to win this bet, its below 1 hundredeth of 1 percent likelyhood.

I would recommend taking profits along the way and then you cannot lose more then your original stake and are in profit no matter your choices vs odds later.    Gambling is good for your maths I would argue

Gambling have positives as well as negatives but it all depends on the user who is gambling.First thing that we have to follow is never do gambling for the sake of money making then you will lose everything and get addicted to it.Just limit yourself from playing then everything will be fine.But most of the people getting failed in gambling so chance of having benefits in gambling is very small.

[Symphonized]

Such nice article about gambling thank you.

Well for me: profit, new friends, new way of real life incomes?

So many i can't describe

[stepwilli]

The only benefit that i got over these years of gambling a part from money was mainly friendship . I have tied so many friendships these past years in either casinos i go to or cyber coffee shops where i usually go to study the future sports events and speculate about them , and through these years i have made friends who are very good at speculating what will happen especially with the sport games that they follow the most , having such people in your life doesn't only make it easier for you to speculate and place bets , but also to find another way of spending your time and loose the whole of it on gambling .

Visit BookiePro.fun and you'll be able to find a variety of games to bet on , as a veteran gambler i enjoyed using it and it has a unique user experience that you won't experience elsewhere than at BookiePro.fun !

For me, I generally view playing those gambling games is a good sources of fun and second impressions was just a lucky profit. If other people thought that it will give them sustainable profit along with the fun amusements they had, its totally inappropriate idea. Gambling if not managed and handled well through emotional control, that's your way of being addicted which could lead you to loss of financial stability.

Fun is only in dice game for me and this is the only game that I use to play in gambling. I never gambled for making money because I know that gambling is not a source of making money but a way of losing money. When you lose your money in seconds how it can be beneficial? There are only deficits of gambling and that is that you will lose your money and respect as well.

Well that is up to you. This may be of fun moment but as far as I know the human beings, we never ever take fun from thing that is harmful for us. Like I have never ever seen a person who is playing with electric wires while current is on just to get fun and entertainment because we know this is harmful. Gambling is other but same case. We know this is harmful but then why we don’t quit this.

[Caladonian]

If you treat ambling as a form of enjoyment, then that's already a benefits taking some relaxations and having some fun and bonding if playing with your friends and relatives, in terms of money making system, it's really risky and addictive better to train your minds and emotions accordingly in order not to engage to much and stress out yourself when you suffer with big loses.

Gambling is more for fun and entertainment and less for making money as gamblers play different games and want to earn money but this is not a perfect place and you can lose as well. In other traditional investments or modern investments you can make money using your knowledge but game has winning and losing so you can be busted here. Never consider it for money but for fun and you can win if you are experienced.

One thing that if you put small money in bet in dice game you will enjoy it because if you lose if will not affect you too much. I don’t think that there is any other benefit of gambling. In my community gambling is not allowed and you will lose respect also.

[ethereumhunter]

Such nice article about gambling thank you.

maybe from what you're saying, I can say that in the gambling site, we can also get a new friend which playing the game together. I don't think that we can always get profit from the gambling site and gambling is not a real-life income because you cannot get any money for your life. playing gambling is for only fun and get enjoy the game. and once you cannot enjoy the game then it means you need to leave the game before you run out of your money.

[steampunkz]

Well, that was a good explanation there mate. Gambling is good if you know your limitations and you have self-discipline. But If you are already addicted and always loosing all your financial, like earning plus not focusing on your daily routines like to go to work and forgetting to take care of yourself. Then that's the time to stop. Take a break and Smell some fresh air outside think!

[wuvdoll]

People this days wants fast money and thus they think that gambling is the best source as you do not have to do anything just play any of the games and you can either win 100% of the money or lose it . But they forget that mostly they will be on the losing end rather than winning it.

This generation is even so fond of that and gone are the days when the old generation believe in working hard and smart to get to achieve your dreams but now, the younger generation just want to get rich as fast as possible in the ways so appalling that would end them in losing even more than they could afford to lose with gambling being a part of them.

With the way this is going, I just hope we are not going to end up having lazy people with a high level of addiction than those who are ready to work which makes the whole thing with benefit mentioned by the OP just a way to paint black white but does not mean the main color isn't still black.

But it's hard to follow all these things for a person who is addicted, you either have to choose your daily priorities or do gambling It's impossible that one can focus on both without having a decrease in their performance
Setting limitations is really easy in gambling but hardly people follow it

[Vaskiy]

Gambling is highly beneficial, but this can't be experienced by each and every people. To be successful one needs to go on gambling, but he should know his limits prior. People spend what they can't afford which is the one that makes gambling get a negativity from common people.

Not everyone could make these so  called benefits, if its skill based then it is another story but majority of them depends upon chances and it is not possible to predict what the outcome would be, luck plays the major role and i have won many and lost many and i do not recommend anyone to chase big wins as it rarely happens and never chase your loses thinking that you could recover .

Go on on gambling, no freaking way if you lose in your first try that is a sign that you quit and forget that loss if you decide to recover those funds you will keep widening the amount you lose and until to realize it will be too late and you would have already lost most of your funds and finally you will even get addicted to gambling

[bitzizzix]

The benefit of gambling I agree with the number,
2. Gambling Is a Form of Entertainment
7. Gambling is the Form of Playing Games
because I just think gambling is just entertainment and filling in free time and playing games to gamble, and I think victory is just a luck factor, and gambling will not help the local or personal economy because gambling will make you lose everything.

Time passing is not gambling, and gambling is not without money.

Well, if you go to a gambling site, take money from their faucet/use free spins/take part in zero buy-in poker tournaments, what are you doing there then, if not gambling? 

If you want to gamble then money is necessary.

No, it's not. Like I explained above.

One thing that if you put small money in bet in dice game you will enjoy it because if you lose if will not affect you too much. 

Firstly, you can lose big money in a single bet on any dice site. Secondly, you can play with pretty small amounts almost everywhere, it shouldn't be necessarily a dice site.

I don’t think that there is any other benefit of gambling.

Maybe you should read the OP and the replies in this thread and then you'll see some examples of other benefits.

Entertainment we can agree but playing the games will comes under the entertainment part alone. I do not know whether they are really same or not. Kick out of gambling when you are seeing the continuous lose in the market.
I want to make the sure that panicking and greediness should avoid the good gambling experience.

Personally I think if you want to test the how the mindset will be while loosing money you can try on any gambling mode.

In my point of view there is only one benefit of gambling and that is entertainment and fun. Apart from this there is no benefit of gambling. Gambling itself is a bad thing how is it possible that a bad thing has any benefit? You will lose all your money at the end even you win in the start of the game. This is the nature of gambling that nobody can make money in gambling.

when i played on casino i spend  $100 per month, i mostly played the new graphical Slots with a lot of bonus rounds from Netent or Playtech and some of them are actually fun and if you spin for 0,50 per spin you can easily play 2-3 hours per week with that bankroll, and if you loose that amount its not such a big deal. and sometime you actually win. i had a lot of 500x my betsize in one spin and when that happens is really good fun:)  now i dont have time to play anymore, but i think gambling can be fun for people that see it as a fun time waster...if you play for win, yeah then you should probably try another hobby

Well not exactly! Gambling is definitely a form of entertainment to the common mass! The problem start when someone look at it as a source of income. That's when gambling starts hurting you financially! And when we talk about gambling benefits, you should not look at the one part of the story, instead you also look for the other factors as well. Like employment generation, tax revenue among others. Take a look at the common pictures and you will definitely understand the benefits. I encourage you to read my other threads as well on gambling.

but unfortunately, the benefits of gambling for ourselves does not exist, because the fact gambling just makes me addicted, and lost a lot of money.
It's my experience that's been playing gambling for a few years. even gambling could not make me a lot of money. but in other ways, I can make a lot of money.

If someone is defending this point and ask you that he would share some points where beneficiary behavior of gambling can be seen towards humans, believe me that man is just making you fool. You must answer him that doesn’t it be a source of destruction for humans? Doesn’t anyone who come here just bears pain and loss every time whenever he just play?

People have already got a lot of benefit from bitcoin, but most of the people got the profit because of the good luck, if you are luck you can really get some good profit from gambling, but it is very hard to say that if someone is getting profit from bitcoin because of their skill and education, because in gambling we mostly depend on our luck.

You are right and fun is the only benefit of gambling, bt the wrong thing is that when you lose your money you will become stress and will feel upset. Therefore I think that gambling for long time has no benefits and the end is always worst. Addicted gamblers lose all their money and leaves themselves in debts. To cover debts gambler becomes criminal.

Not all the gamblers become upset after loss and return again with a win. This is not a common and necessary thing that a gambler gets upset after losing, a real gambler will think for better result in the next game and will not lose hope of wining game. Gambling has many advantages and that is why it is alive in many countries and common in the European countries.

Yeah there are benefits of gambling but not for gamblers. Gambling is beneficial only for casino owners, because they took all the money of Gamblers. Did you see any person who won a lot of money in gambling and now he is spending a happy life with his family?  I don't think so that there is any benefit of gambling.it is a bad thing and a bad thing has no benefits.

This is the case in reality. Actually we aren’t making ourselves profitable rather to those who are making fun of your lives. They eat you up and then you are just regretting the whole life for what shit you have just done. But at that time, it is just as crying over spilt milk. Better is to get your mind focused on things that are against you. Think before what you do for your own betterment.

Yes, Winning at gambling is not easy and it’s a hard lifestyle for those who practice it full-time. If you only gamble with money you can afford to lose, and not with the money you need for bills and to live on, you’re probably okay. And yeah, gambling is a great group activity for friends, colleagues and family, and many groups do organize special gambling trips to casinos that are maybe a few hours drive away. So, gambling benefits do exists I may say.

[emberbekas]

No matter how bad the activity is, there must still be good things even though the comparison is very contradictory. And if we see the advantages and disadvantages of gambling, especially for ourselves, surely losses will dominate.

[fordsons]

Well, that was a good explanation there mate. Gambling is good if you know your limitations and you have self-discipline. But If you are already addicted and always loosing all your financial, like earning plus not focusing on your daily routines like to go to work and forgetting to take care of yourself. Then that's the time to stop. Take a break and Smell some fresh air outside think!

But it's hard to follow all these things for a person who is addicted, you either have to choose your daily priorities or do gambling It's impossible that one can focus on both without having a decrease in their performance
Setting limitations is really easy in gambling but hardly people follow it

In my opinion the big benefit of gambling is that when you win a big game, quit immediately and never play again. When you win a lot of money, invest this money in some business and spend a happy life with your family and done even think of gambling, otherwise you will lose back your money. There are no benefits of gambling except enjoyment for few minutes.

In gambling, you can not bad earn, I at the expense of games live and do not work.

[sana54210]

Playing the dice game is a great way to pass the time, and if you play it conservatively you cant lose all your money.
Its nice that I can roll the dice and only risk a few cents- instead of when I bet sports and there is a few mbtc minimum (chance to lose more).

The chances of wining are high in dice but also what you win is relatively very small percentage of the amount you risk it. SO say you keep on playing and in between keep on losing so overall you may still be in negative as when you lose the amount is 100% lost and not just a % of it.

in dice games, you will have a bigger chance to lose than the other games because you don't know what will happen in the next round so you might get loss your money. and in other games, you cannot get the benefits from gambling besides of getting lost the money and if you cannot leave the gambling, then don't blame other people to not give a warning for you. although there are any benefits of gambling, you cannot make any money on gambling and you know that the chance to lose your money is bigger.

Gambling means losing money no matter what kind of gambling you play. The result will be in favor of only casino owners and all gamblers leave their money in casinos. The only benefit of gambling in my mind is win huge money, quit and never gamble again. Start a respectable business and live your life happily with your family. On other benefits of gambling.

Really this is the case. Whatever form of gambling you just play, there is a hard luck waiting for you at corner and you do have to counter it. People lost their happy lives in there so why you want to become another victim.

Most of the times when we see others drowning in a swimming pool, whatever the reason is, we don’t jump in there anymore regarding safety of our lives then why here?

[Symphonized]

[Dice-Bet]

Human nature to want to take risks. Also it is super fun when done in moderation!

[btctalk4life]

No matter how bad the activity is, there must still be good things even though the comparison is very contradictory. And if we see the advantages and disadvantages of gambling, especially for ourselves, surely losses will dominate.

You are right but gambling has more disadvatages than advantages. The advantages are not even stay in a long time, once you lose again on gambling the advantages will be gone changed to disadvantages.

[BitcoinCommodor]

The benefit of gambling I agree with the number,
2. Gambling Is a Form of Entertainment
7. Gambling is the Form of Playing Games
because I just think gambling is just entertainment and filling in free time and playing games to gamble, and I think victory is just a luck factor, and gambling will not help the local or personal economy because gambling will make you lose everything.

If this gambling is restricted with much compliance and concern to only limit of games and enjoyment then it is okay. But still you must see whether your religion is allowing you and your state is allowing you to legally play this game. If it is so, then next big step you must take is control of your mind. How strong you are that you can resist the addiction in best possible way.

so if we know that gambling has more disadvantages, we don't have to stay for a long time in gaming, right? because when we are losing too much money, we will be sad and we cannot get that money back, besides losing more money. many of us know this and many of us still playing the game because they only want to get fun in the games. but some people were still playing to try to earn money from the gambling games.

most people who play gambling would know the risks to be faced, most did feel the loss compared with the benefits. but even though they are aware of it, there are still many people who continue to play gambling because they make it as entertainment for fun and try their luck to make money

Today evening, I was spending some free time by surfing various websites. Suddenly a website caught my attention which talks about the benefits of gambling. I was surprised because negative thoughts about gambling is so common, but positive thoughts are rare to find. So I went ahead and read the entire article. The article actually talks about the positive sides of gambling which I believe everyone should know and it made a lot of sense to me!

The article lists 7 points as the benefits of gambling:
1. Gambling Stimulates Local Economies
2. Gambling Is a Form of Entertainment
3. Gambling Can Take Place in a Safe Environment
4. You Could Win
5. Gambling Contributes to Government Budgets
6. Gambling Creates New Forms of Revenue
7. Gambling is a Form of Game Play

The article is actually a tight slap on the popular belief that "gambling is harmful to the society". So I encourage everyone on this forum to read the article and understand it, especially the non-gamblers! Gambling is not a fools-heaven, it's just another business and an opportunity to the gamblers! Hope this article would clear your mind!

The wrong economy that drives gambling is legal, because gambling will benefit the country because gambling houses will pay the taxes already in use for any legal business. Not only profitable for state taxes, gambling also increases tourism

[Fatanut]

The wrong economy that drives gambling is legal, because gambling will benefit the country because gambling houses will pay the taxes already in use for any legal business. Not only profitable for state taxes, gambling also increases tourism

All of that in exchange of thousands of people ruining their lives. All of that in exchange of families getting torn apart because their family member gambled way too much money and thus forever putting everyone in their family in debt. It's funny because millions of money goes to the casino every month which all could've been used to feed the poor, to adjust the education system so everyone can afford it, or overall just to make one's country a better place. But no, gambling is wayyyy too important. Gambling only gives the gambler thrills, a momentary adrenaline rush. That's all the advantages of it.

All the other listed advantages such as casinos paying huge taxes, casino being a form of entertainment, and casino owners helping back to the community, they are all being done by other institution as well, even the smaller ones. We are all paying taxes. We can entertain ourselves in a different way, much cheaper way. And we are all helping back to the community. Does gambling really has any benefit or at least something different that can justify the fact that it has destroyed so many lives?

[Mastsetad]

The only benefit that i got over these years of gambling a part from money was mainly friendship . I have tied so many friendships these past years in either casinos i go to or cyber coffee shops where i usually go to study the future sports events and speculate about them , and through these years i have made friends who are very good at speculating what will happen especially with the sport games that they follow the most , having such people in your life doesn't only make it easier for you to speculate and place bets , but also to find another way of spending your time and loose the whole of it on gambling .

Visit BookiePro.fun and you'll be able to find a variety of games to bet on , as a veteran gambler i enjoyed using it and it has a unique user experience that you won't experience elsewhere than at BookiePro.fun !

I don’t agree with you. When you gamble with a person he will be your rival and will be your enemy if something bad happens. There is no friendship in gambling. Gambling is a bad thing and there is no benefit of it. No doubt you will destroy yourself if you continue gambling for ling time. I have never seen that a gambler won a lot of money and quit gambling forever.

Yes, it has a lot of benefits but it also has a disadvantage to those who already addicted into it. Being addicted in gambling cannot make you get benefited because in my opinion there is always a big chance for them to lose a lot of money. Not all the time we need to think on a positive side of gambling because maybe those who are saying positive things about gamblingb is a trap for you to play with their site.

I think the economy of the country will grow because of the gambling owners pay the tax and I think the amount will bigger because the owners take a big profit too from the business. maybe we can see in Macau and las vegas which gambling is legal, many tourism come to that places just for playing gambling. but I think there will be many negative from the gambling that we should aware so we don't play gambling in every day and spend a big money on the games.

[Kevin77]

I think the economy of the country will grow because of the gambling owners pay the tax and I think the amount will bigger because the owners take a big profit too from the business.

The growth of economy of a country from the people's bloodbath should not be consider a right one. I mean, people are ready to pay tax and from that tax money alone a country's economy should be developed and not from the taxes being collected from gambling houses. That is the reason many countries have prohibited gambling completely even they are aware of how big those gambling houses will be for generating income for a country.

I think there will be many negative from the gambling that we should aware so we don't play gambling in every day and spend a big money on the games.

Yes, these negative things makes gambling as a bad and prohibited one even it will be having some positive things within it. Weightage of positive things should be higher than negative things so that we accept the existence of benefits from gambling.

Some of us use gambling as a stress reliever.  No matter if I win or lose I end up having a fun time and forgetting about my daily life.  It makes watching sport matches much more exciting.  I feel that the less stressed out we are the longer we live.  I mean we all die anyways so might as well have a good time and do what makes us feel good.

Gambling as a stress reliever ? The reason I do not gamble much is because even though I feel I am catching fun once in a while, I get stressed with some headache even the more. I really do not know why that is since I do not always expect to win anything anyway, but still, it is normal to want to have that zeal since that is where the fun really is. If I wanted just playing game for the fun of it, there are several ways to play such games without gambling anyway.

[boyptc]

In gambling, you can not bad earn, I at the expense of games live and do not work.

We can't earn with gambling? as the thread says and its content there are some benefits that you can lean on it.

If at your expense do not work on it that's fine, you don't have to do it at your own expense if you can't see some good outcome.

[Hobo66]

Yes, you are correct about that, Gambling does have a lot of benefits, but there are also downsides with gambling, and some gamblers out there know it, it may benefit the economy, but first things first, will it give you benefits as well? I know that it is entertaining, and yeah you can earn while enjoying the game, but as this continues to happen addiction comes along to you as well, it's like a drug perhaps, addiction is dangerous, addiction can actually lead you to stupid decisions, and that is why I don't think that gambling will only bring out positive things, there are its side effects as well.

I myself cannot see any benefit of ambling, most of the people play gambling for making money, but I think few people may be succeeded in their aims, while the rest of the people lose their own money that they have put for playing gambling, in fact the chances of losing money in gambling is more high than making money from gambling.

Yes if they play for making money you are right. But what about playing for the entertainment and fun of it, without other motives like wanting to become rich? It makes it a positive - I would argue.

If someone is playing gambling for making money and become rich, that's there choice! It's a free world and people can do whatever is permissible in law. People make mistakes in life and then learn from those mistakes to make a better future. Gambling is pure entertainment and nothing else. If someone is looking at it as a method of making money, they are doing it wrong! Now if they loose and start blaming gambling as a whole, that's their mistake and not the mistake of gambling industry itself. Definitely risks are there but any sensible person understands that risk and play accordingly. Like every other industry, there are pros and cons of gambling as well. So a gambler needs to know how not to be go overboard and become addicted!

Yes, for someone who is indeed actually and truthfully gambling for fun which sometimes I wonder where the fun comes into play most especially for online gambling, we may actually say they may get the some of the benefits mentioned by the OP even though most of the benefits actually go to the casinos and the government anyway.

Gamblers are bound to lose money every time, and careless gamblers are bound to lose even more, which makes the whole idea of benefit sucks anyway since you can get those benefits from somewhere else without having to gamble.

[Indamuck]

One of the biggest positives for myself and gambling are the friendships I've made from it.  Formed a lot of good relationships with great people that I wouldn't have if I wasn't involved in gambling.

It really does help stimulate the economy as well by providing jobs, this is something that the gambling naysayers often forget about.

Well, I hope you get the best from the dice you roll and at the same time know that nothing is guaranteed and most of the time, losing is even more guaranteed no matter how you think you are smart enough to tweak the mechanism, because the house edge are absolutely not stupid as far as I am concerned. It is gambling, and nothing else, and attaching a lot to it and expecting the best from it is what has made a lot of people turned to addicts as they could no longer control the emotions anymore.

Gamblers are bound to lose money every time, and careless gamblers are bound to lose even more, which makes the whole idea of benefit sucks anyway since you can get those benefits from somewhere else without having to gamble.

But the idea of being relaxed without at least having to one way or the other think about the money you are losing is only something you can achieve in a traditional casino since you will have people to gist with, you can at least do other fun stuffs and so on, but that does not still mean that the benefit that is there mostly is far lower than the disadvantages that is available when it comes to gambling and that also depends a lot on each individual as well.

Yeah, gambling also helps the economy of such country with a legal papers to conduct it. I do agree that gambling helps us to make friends since gambling is socializing with others, teammate or against with. As well as giving jobs to some people like a card dealer, cashier, checker etc. let us see what the gambling can make not focusing on what losing can do to us.

I am not so sure about it. In my country they have been so greedy in taxing services and players that they just moved abroad. So no taxes for now.

[STT]

Its a business like every other, I would call it entertainment related.    Its unfortunate if they do overtax it but the method I've seen used is to tax gambling profits at a flat rate related to revenue streams within that business.  That way the government gets its regular contribution from the industry and the company itself can easily plan the accounts.

Theres nothing especially bad about gambling where as the alcohol industry can cause ill health, there is so much money poured into clubs and other retail outlets for alcohol which is essentially a luxury unneeded resource in an economy.  Yet these businesses are the most stable in a recession.   Since the government has to balance its books and pay its debt interest no matter what they should especially value gambling as a slow and steady reliable backer for government income flows

Good to know that you were able to make some friends from gambling platforms. Yeah I have made some friends too but, from my experience it's not good to involve money in this 'online' friendship. Don't give loans or ask them. It's better to keep the friendship away from that.

Government could get a fair amount as tax from gambling. Sadly, my country doesn't allow any type of gambling activities except for some states. yet, underground illegal gambling worth billions. If government could regulate it, that would really help the economy.

This is just the same situation as my country. In fact, gambling was an illegal activity when I was kid but everything changed when I started to get in Elementary School. The government decided to put gambling as an illegal activity while in fact they earned so much money from the tax and it helped the economic condition of the country. Obviously, the government lost one of the biggest income from the gambling tax but of course people could not do anything except accepting the rules.

Look I have been here for so long time and following all such comments regarding gambling. The positivity and negativity that revolves around this game and all harms and profits associated with it. But brother for the first time I just saw a comment that is full of positivity. You seem so satisfied with friendships you have made from gambling but what about loss that you must have had in your tenure?

If the context is about taxing gambling, I think this would be so worst and most weird step by government of that country. Actually these politicians and state is our beneficiary. They must try to adopt policies and legislate them in a way that is hundred percent suitable for us and for our society. While gambling haven’t any connection with these golden words. So never legalize gambling.

Yes that is right that there are some benefits of gambling games but it is also a fact that a lot of drawbacks of gambling games are there.

Government always there for the welfare of the people, no doubt that your government may be might be collecting a big money from gambling through taxes, but it is also a fact that gambling  has already ruined the life of some many people so may be for stopping people to ruin their life in gambling your government has taken that step.

This has been the opposite for me but I still treat it as a lesson. The people who introduced me to gambling were very nice to me initially. After, I joined with their referral links , they even stopped visiting me. I have seen fake people approaching me for friendship and then dropping referral links to various sites.

However, what you are saying might be true for physical casinos.

[SpringfieldM1A]

Playing the dice game is a great way to pass the time, and if you play it conservatively you cant lose all your money.
Its nice that I can roll the dice and only risk a few cents- instead of when I bet sports and there is a few mbtc minimum (chance to lose more).

Totally agree that you get more playtime for your money, but i think a lot of players like the thrills of playing slots with Crypto and hope to get to the bonus rounds where they can get up to 1000x bet.  But of course its also a really easy way to loose your money fast. however you should never bet for more money than you can afford to loose.

That last part says it all. Everyone can decide to have their own reason for gambling, which a lot of people are doing it for the possibility of winning some huge money at the end, some because they said they want to have some fun and so on and so forth.
What is important is to understand that as long as gambling is concerned, the chances of losing is still pretty high and better to keep that at the back of the mind than getting to find out the hard way.

I am not so sure about it. In my country they have been so greedy in taxing services and players that they just moved abroad. So no taxes for now.

I guess that is just right since if there are a lot of gamblers in your country, instead of banning those gambling sites or casinos, government will just find a way to let those gamblers gamble and them having some advantages like getting good taxes to them. They are gambling, and those casinos earn while the country is getting good profit for it's development and it's improvement.

Today evening, I was spending some free time by surfing various websites. Suddenly a website caught my attention which talks about the benefits of gambling. I was surprised because negative thoughts about gambling is so common, but positive thoughts are rare to find. So I went ahead and read the entire article. The article actually talks about the positive sides of gambling which I believe everyone should know and it made a lot of sense to me!

The article lists 7 points as the benefits of gambling:
1. Gambling Stimulates Local Economies
2. Gambling Is a Form of Entertainment
3. Gambling Can Take Place in a Safe Environment
4. You Could Win
5. Gambling Contributes to Government Budgets
6. Gambling Creates New Forms of Revenue
7. Gambling is a Form of Game Play

The article is actually a tight slap on the popular belief that "gambling is harmful to the society". So I encourage everyone on this forum to read the article and understand it, especially the non-gamblers! Gambling is not a fools-heaven, it's just another business and an opportunity to the gamblers! Hope this article would clear your mind!

Yes, it has a lot of benefits but it also has a disadvantage to those who already addicted into it. Being addicted in gambling cannot make you get benefited because in my opinion there is always a big chance for them to lose a lot of money. Not all the time we need to think on a positive side of gambling because maybe those who are saying positive things about gamblingb is a trap for you to play with their site. 

Yes that is right that there are some benefits of gambling games but it is also a fact that a lot of drawbacks of gambling games are there. I personally know about a lot of people who have already lost a lot money in gambling, I think that gambling is also too much risky and more chances are to lose money in gambling games.

the risk of losing money in gambling is already very familiar to everyone. for some people who are accustomed to gambling, they certainly get many benefits and can help their economic system, so that the positive side of gambling can only be felt by people who are already accustomed to gambling

Some of the points you mentioned are reckless.

4. You Could Win

That depends on how trained you are and how you treat gambling. Also there are chances to Loose.

5. Gambling Contributes to Government Budgets

Gambling has been declared Illegal in most of the countries and also there is no point of vambling contributing to the government budget as most of the funds used in gambling are in the form of Black Money.

Gambling can be treated as a mean of entertainment and also most of the peoples earn good revenues in gambling but it dosent mean that gambling is 100% beneficial. Point of view for gambling depends on each individual's thinking.

[yanixbtc]

Yes, you are correct about that, Gambling does have a lot of benefits, but there are also downsides with gambling, and some gamblers out there know it, it may benefit the economy, but first things first, will it give you benefits as well? I know that it is entertaining, and yeah you can earn while enjoying the game, but as this continues to happen addiction comes along to you as well, it's like a drug perhaps, addiction is dangerous, addiction can actually lead you to stupid decisions, and that is why I don't think that gambling will only bring out positive things, there are its side effects as well.

I myself cannot see any benefit of ambling, most of the people play gambling for making money, but I think few people may be succeeded in their aims, while the rest of the people lose their own money that they have put for playing gambling, in fact the chances of losing money in gambling is more high than making money from gambling.

Yes if they play for making money you are right. But what about playing for the entertainment and fun of it, without other motives like wanting to become rich? It makes it a positive - I would argue.

Indeed gambling has benefits that includes fun and recreation, also can increase self confidence if you win a game. It exercises the brain and makes a creative mind. Some study says older recreational gamblers seem to be healthier than non-gamblers. It boosts their social aspects and maintains an active life together with friends.

Increasing self-confidence if you win a game is like setting yourself on a suicide mission because you will end up losing everything at the end anyway. One thing you want to do is to fix your mind to the idea that you are bound to lose everything if care is not taken, and the fact that you got lucky today does not mean you will get lucky tomorrow since it is not like all the luck is meant to be for you.

If you want to have huge fun, exercise the brain and gain confidence on something very realistic, then gambling should not even be the first on your list or possibly not be on your list at all.

[Sukut]

One of the biggest positives for myself and gambling are the friendships I've made from it.  Formed a lot of good relationships with great people that I wouldn't have if I wasn't involved in gambling.

It really does help stimulate the economy as well by providing jobs, this is something that the gambling naysayers often forget about.

I agree with you about making friendship, I think it also helps being patient.

This has been the opposite for me but I still treat it as a lesson. The people who introduced me to gambling were very nice to me initially. After, I joined with their referral links , they even stopped visiting me. I have seen fake people approaching me for friendship and then dropping referral links to various sites.

However, what you are saying might be true for physical casinos.

This is true not only for land based casinos. I've made a lot of friends through online gambling, dozens of friends. Although we never meet in real life we chat frequently on various gambling sites or on related forums. Btw I've never joined any site with their referral links neither they've done it with mine. I think ref links "friends" is another story and maybe that's why you were unlucky with them. You can meet some really interesting personalities in the chat rooms on gambling sites and expand your horizons by talking with them. No kidding, try it.

[thresher]

Its a business like every other, I would call it entertainment related.    Its unfortunate if they do overtax it but the method I've seen used is to tax gambling profits at a flat rate related to revenue streams within that business.  That way the government gets its regular contribution from the industry and the company itself can easily plan the accounts.

Theres nothing especially bad about gambling where as the alcohol industry can cause ill health, there is so much money poured into clubs and other retail outlets for alcohol which is essentially a luxury unneeded resource in an economy.  Yet these businesses are the most stable in a recession.   Since the government has to balance its books and pay its debt interest no matter what they should especially value gambling as a slow and steady reliable backer for government income flows

I am not agree with the fact that gambling is a business or profession. It do not require any basic knowledge or education, or even do not need any specific skill therefore it is not good to call it a business or profession. It is a game and is in fact a money game, you have chance to make money from it or even can lose your own in no time.

I don't think it's a matter of placing gambling as number 1 on your list, provided that you have control of yourself to not be emotional in playing because that will only make you lose all your money later. that big risk makes fun of gambling not replace with other games. the most important thing is not to get out of control, if you really want to have fun from gambling then allocate special funds, don't gamble more than the funds you allocate

[Whosdaddy]

Playing the dice game is a great way to pass the time, and if you play it conservatively you cant lose all your money.
Its nice that I can roll the dice and only risk a few cents- instead of when I bet sports and there is a few mbtc minimum (chance to lose more).

Totally agree that you get more playtime for your money, but i think a lot of players like the thrills of playing slots with Crypto and hope to get to the bonus rounds where they can get up to 1000x bet.  But of course its also a really easy way to loose your money fast. however you should never bet for more money than you can afford to loose.

That last part says it all. Everyone can decide to have their own reason for gambling, which a lot of people are doing it for the possibility of winning some huge money at the end, some because they said they want to have some fun and so on and so forth.
What is important is to understand that as long as gambling is concerned, the chances of losing is still pretty high and better to keep that at the back of the mind than getting to find out the hard way.

In as much as people can understand that last part and put it at the back of their mind, I guess we will end up having a sane world of gambling. I know a lot of fun can be had in real casinos anyway to discard the mentality of winning at all cost, but for online gambling, I would say it is not necessarily the case.

A lot of people have ended up finding it the hard way because they could not control themselves and that is where the main problem starts for them. So, in a way, benefit can only be applicable to those who really are having fun, the casino owners and the government.

Look I have been here for so long time and following all such comments regarding gambling. The positivity and negativity that revolves around this game and all harms and profits associated with it. But brother for the first time I just saw a comment that is full of positivity. You seem so satisfied with friendships you have made from gambling but what about loss that you must have had in your tenure?

In very beginning I do not know that how but it is a fact that they make money.  For example when I was very new in gambling, on very first day whie playing  dice game online I made about 2000$, and I think that it was really a big profit for me, but after that I think that in next two weeks I thik that I lost more than 20000$ but still even I know that I cannot make money from gambling I like to continue and still after every lost I want to quit my gambling activities for ever but I never succeeded.

The other reason why other addicted people are not quitting gambling even if they are losing is because of this kind of post. I'm not saying that it is bad, but I hope you know guys that posting positive things about gambling could be bad for others, not all of us who tried gambling always win, sadly it is the other way around. Even though there are still reminders you have said that it depends on how we are going to understand the risk we are facing in gambling, still, it is not enough for someone to win in gambling.

Benefits in gambling only existed to those who are winning, or who are lucky playing gambling, but it is a curse to those people who joined gambling just because of a mindset that he could win, he could do what other could do(which is to win in gambling)

Well, you can never take that away from someone, the possibility of earning/winning a high amount of money. Or the fact that you can win when you continue to gamble, which a matter of fact, is not true. That's just how gambling works and I think it's not always a good thing especially when abused. Probably, what I think of is that when you gamble, it's due to the possibility "the mindset" like you said. That's scary when the person is addicted.

making a friendship is one of the benefits in the gambling game in online gambling or offline gambling. but for being patient, it will depend on personal because we can be patient if we want to try and learn about how to be patient. I think we can get another benefit in gambling which is we can make a rule about limiting the money and try to obey the limit money that we use in gambling so we can prevent a big loss.

Actually gambling can makes people become unpatient though, people want doubling their money fast on gambling and bet randomly to get more profits.

Nothing like being patient when it comes to gambling as what is mostly important is to accept your fate of losing even before you start the game and that would make you to gamble what you can afford to lose anyway.

Benefits of gambling to me would be more applicable to the casino owners and not for gamblers except for those who were able to have some heavy luck and smart enough to win a huge amount of money and cart away with it without acting stupid to lose it over again.

Yeah it's a negative influence, people are more accustomed to getting big and instant profits, so that when their jobs give small

True! So many times in social gatherings when you tend to meet a lot of new faces, play together on certain games, you get to familiarize yourself with people like this and can help you connect with them socially which we all know such connection might be of help in the long run.

You would really be surprised at some interesting people you will get to meet in casinos which are something that can also be used as an incentive or benefit for gamblers asides fun. Making money from gambling should not even be a thing to think about.

[Symphonized]

Same as me when i play normal Roulette game or any sort out of the box dice one.

I am not agree with the fact that gambling is a business or profession. It do not require any basic knowledge or education

Gambling and luck based games relate to statistics and probability which is a form of mathematics going back hundreds of years.   I studied it in college, its definitely a valid logically built business style.   It might not be how people play it but a business can certainly stop to analyse and structure their regular games to feature games that are profitable while also giving a chance to win far larger amounts then the stakes given by customers.    A simple lottery is very commonly operated by many local governments as its quite predictable and seen as a social activity, the other more varied games relate similarly

Seriously? You learn gambling in campus, maybe your country does legalize casino gambling or anything else maybe?
If that is the case then there is indeed a point if there is a section for analyzing in gambling and it is indeed related to math-related calculations, but not all countries legalize gambling and not all campuses have a gambling curriculum. But by having a lot of friends in gambling, I can also conclude if the gambling is indeed enough to be an additional income if they consistently win gambling and I have many friends like that, so gambling is not entirely detrimental, because there are still many people who take advantage of gambling, so gambling can be said to be a profession and business too.

[STT]

Legalise gambling as concept doesnt even add up in my reckoning.   Risk is a normal natural phenomena, calculating the odds of future occurrence based on previous event and known factors again is just a regular calculation.    To outlaw the idea of an unknown event being waged on two opposing parties just seems nonsense, its normal business.  

Every farmer who grows a crop is taking a vast risk.  He must account for the agricultural factors behind each crop he hopes to sell, then on top of that he has to hope the market itself wants to buy the crop at a reasonable price that gives a profit or least pays the costs.
Gambling is a game because it removes the work and long form maths from it and merely presents the gamble as a game.     I can understand regulating various actions people might take like borrowing money to gamble, that can be a bad idea but its foolish to try to stop the idea of risk any more then a government can stop the rain.

[Janation]

Yeah it's a negative influence, people are more accustomed to getting big and instant profits, so that when their jobs give small

Accustomed in getting bug and instant profits? You are like saying that peoplr or gamblers are used in winning great money pots but it dont really happen that easily. People are being envious of people that are rich and won a lot of money in gambling.

The reason they are real desperate to win is because they are comfortable to what they hve. Most of the gamblers also tends to be the easy-go-lucky types that just wants to go YOLO in life without any real plans and rely on luck.

then they will get lost all of their money because they cannot get fast money in gambling games except fast loss. we learn many things about gambling and we know that gambling games are the fastest way to lose our money. but there will be another benefit of gambling like I said and making friends just one of the benefits. maybe you can just visit on the gambling games without placing the bets and you only want to talk with other people and say hello to them.

[Nahl]

Regardless from the list on OP but in my view benefits of gambling only belongs to people who can control their emotions and desire while gambling with avoid to being an addicted but gambling will have negative impact to those who can't control their emotions and being an addicted but i think people will always be consider gambling as bad habit

[FlightyPouch]

Yeah it's a negative influence, people are more accustomed to getting big and instant profits, so that when their jobs give small
income they will get angry and maybe get out of their jobs and focus on gambling, gambling has bad side effects

I do not know if they are accustomed on getting big profits but I think they are since no gambler will be coming back to casinos or gambling sites to gamble without experiencing a great amount of win or profit. There are a lot of gamblers that is happy winning a gambling activity and a lot of people that is hoping and desperate to win but I think the best thing we can learn from gambling is that earning money is not that easy.

People who are gambling as a profession are getting paid just to play. Those who see gambling as a business are the ones that owns a casino or an online casino. So what happens to the rest of the players? Since gambling is a zero-sum game (i.e. while you win, somebody is losing), other people should be paying these people, right? It's us, the unfortunate ones, that are paying for these people. Our losses goes to them. So unless you're smart enough and you put enough time to become a professional gambler, or you are business-oriented enough to establish a casino and have it funded by people, I don't see how else are you going to make money from gambling.

You basically make money from the losses of others in gambling. But in the end of the day, if you want to make sure money from gambling, you're going to do work. It's not just about getting lucky all the time. Others see gambling as a sport wherein you can have a strategy to play with. Others see gambling as a business that as long as you're able to offer a good service to people, people are coming to you and you're going to be making money.

[detector]

My neighbour commit to suicide after they can't paid the gambling loan so I can't find any benefit on gambling because mostly people will experience bad impact on their live.
Yes, some people can see the benefit but most will see gambling are evil and not worth to being fight for !

[justspare]

I don't think it's a matter of placing gambling as number 1 on your list, provided that you have control of yourself to not be emotional in playing because that will only make you lose all your money later. that big risk makes fun of gambling not replace with other games. the most important thing is not to get out of control, if you really want to have fun from gambling then allocate special funds, don't gamble more than the funds you allocate

Unless we really want to be deceiving ourselves though, I must say that gambling whether it is number one on your list or not, is bound to make you lose control of yourself.

Yeah, certain people have been able to master the act of self-control, and that has helped them hugely in the gambling space, but if we really want to be truthful, these are just very few people compared to many. Like you said last, better to just stick to the fact that you are losing and you are gambling with what you can afford to lose with just 1% chance of winning which you should not bank on if you want to gamble at all.

[jhongzjhong]

My neighbour commit to suicide after they can't paid the gambling loan so I can't find any benefit on gambling because mostly people will experience bad impact on their live.
Yes, some people can see the benefit but most will see gambling are evil and not worth to being fight for !

Definitely yes, gambling is not worth it to have benefits to the gamblers. Most likely it will have a negative effect on the wealth of the people who got addicted to it. So, much better we can avoid this possibly happen at the earlier stage and we know the limit when we stop to avoid huge losses.

[Husecomang]

Its a business like every other, I would call it entertainment related.    Its unfortunate if they do overtax it but the method I've seen used is to tax gambling profits at a flat rate related to revenue streams within that business.  That way the government gets its regular contribution from the industry and the company itself can easily plan the accounts.

Theres nothing especially bad about gambling where as the alcohol industry can cause ill health, there is so much money poured into clubs and other retail outlets for alcohol which is essentially a luxury unneeded resource in an economy.  Yet these businesses are the most stable in a recession.   Since the government has to balance its books and pay its debt interest no matter what they should especially value gambling as a slow and steady reliable backer for government income flows

I am not agree with the fact that gambling is a business or profession. It do not require any basic knowledge or education, or even do not need any specific skill therefore it is not good to call it a business or profession. It is a game and is in fact a money game, you have chance to make money from it or even can lose your own in no time.

I usually refer those who see or take gambling as a profession or business as those who are just so lazy to work but are finding ways to make quick money from the likes of gambling.

That is an absurd way of thinking as far as I am concerned, and for one fact, the people who are making a lot of money from gambling are the gambling owners themselves, and virtually higher percentage of gamblers lose every day. Therefore, associating something like that to business is just way out of league.

Today evening, I was spending some free time by surfing various websites. Suddenly a website caught my attention which talks about the benefits of gambling. I was surprised because negative thoughts about gambling is so common, but positive thoughts are rare to find. So I went ahead and read the entire article. The article actually talks about the positive sides of gambling which I believe everyone should know and it made a lot of sense to me!

The article lists 7 points as the benefits of gambling:
1. Gambling Stimulates Local Economies
2. Gambling Is a Form of Entertainment
3. Gambling Can Take Place in a Safe Environment
4. You Could Win
5. Gambling Contributes to Government Budgets
6. Gambling Creates New Forms of Revenue
7. Gambling is a Form of Game Play

The article is actually a tight slap on the popular belief that "gambling is harmful to the society". So I encourage everyone on this forum to read the article and understand it, especially the non-gamblers! Gambling is not a fools-heaven, it's just another business and an opportunity to the gamblers! Hope this article would clear your mind!

Well in this world where gambling is only said to have disadvantages and being seen as bad thing in the society specially in my country....you have given some very good points and i totally agree with you,..will motivate us all here

[Betwrong]

Regardless from the list on OP but in my view benefits of gambling only belongs to people who can control their emotions and desire while gambling with avoid to being an addicted but gambling will have negative impact to those who can't control their emotions and being an addicted but i think people will always be consider gambling as bad habit

According to various researches from 0.5 to 3 percent of adult population have some issues with gambling, including being addicted to it. I'm not saying it's nothing, no, actually it's a big problem and we have to do everything we can to prevent people from getting addicted. But it must be noted that the percentage of alcoholics is much higher than that of gambling addicts. More than 7 percent of the American population aged 18 and up have a drinking problem. I haven't managed to found similar info on Europe but according to the World Health Organisation, the European Union is the heaviest-drinking region in the world, so the percentage of alcoholics in Europe must be even higher. Taking the above into account, if drinking a beer or two, or a glass of wine or two, is considered okay by society, playing a game or two should be considered okay as well.

[FlightyPouch]

Yes, some people can see the benefit but most will see gambling are evil and not worth to being fight for !

I just hope that they don't just "see" the benefit of gambling, they should be also feel and learn what can be done by Gambling in their lives. Gambling destroyed a lot of lives in the past, there will be in the near future and I hope people will be able to overcome those problems since not only themselves will be affected by that but also the people around him.

[el kaka22]

Actually gambling can makes people become unpatient though, people want doubling their money fast on gambling and bet randomly to get more profits.

Impatience from people when it comes to gambling is as a result of the mindset they have towards it.
They expect just so much from it that they eventually lose track of things so fast because they are trying to chase things that are not realistic.

Ask some gamblers today, they will tell you they are gambling because they want to make profit from it, and then you ask yourself if they are really sane or just stupid. Well, benefits as far as I am concerned when it comes to gambling are only relative to the casino owners themselves.

A benefit from gambling does not need to be a materialistic one. Gambling could be a way to pass our time in entertaining way hence the befit may be some soothing experience to burst our our stress and to forget the headaches of corporate or personal life. If we look for benefits this way, then yes really benefits from gambling are there .

[fasdorcas]

Gambling is definitely a form of entertainment for me, for instance playing Multi-Wheel Roulette Gold puts me in a good mood whenever I'm playing especially if I'm winning big bucks!

Good thing you see it as a form of entertainment, and I hope you are being truthful to yourself. It is normal to feel good when you win big from gambling, no doubt, but what is important is to never forget that as much as you might want to win big even with the entertainment which is something I feel is a cover-up for most people, forgetting that aspect where gambling can make you lose a lot and the chances are high can make you make regrettable decisions.

[Gadhoh]

To be honest, our society is still divided regarding gambling but we have like 3 big casino's and some minor one and even lotteries which "gives" a lot of money to our government to help them build projects like infrastructures (highways, roads etc).

In a sense, it has benefits, but my only problem is that I can't feel any significant changes as reports keeps coming in that the money just goes to the pocket of corrupt government officials. So as far as I'm concern, yes there could be benefits, but I do hope that our governments really used the funds from gambling to help alleviate peoples lives in our country.

When viewed from household and financial advantages, for example, you win in a match, you will get money. Your money can make your household happy and money can make your money safe

There's a line that separates the amount of how much beer intake (or gambling bets/amount) is okay and what's not considered 'too much'. The problem is, that line is rather very blurry and is very dynamic. A person, who is drinking one beer a day (or gambling for 30 minutes a day), can easily tell other people that they have more beer than they used to (or gambled more or longer than they used to) and still look acceptable and 'normal' to the society. People think that the person probably had a good time and was just trying to have fun. As time goes by, our brain gets used to that certain amount and so it seeks more just as you would seek more of it as it is enjoyable or fun. The numbers increase a bit, no one cares. It bits even more, no one bats an eye. You start to notice it, that it's okay to go higher and still be 'A-okay' to the people around you and so you increase it even more. Now you're at the number far from what you used to. At some point you would realize that no one really cares about your habits and that no matter how much you go higher, no one really cares until it starts to affect you or the people around you negatively. But at that point you're already dependent on the habit and it's too late to go back.

Now, now.. Is this how addiction is formed?

[beerlover]

A lot of the lives destroyed by gambling to me are self-inflicted and should not in any way be put on gambling itself. People with their greedy and unrealistic mindset usually feel that gambling is a way to set them on the wealthy part and the question they always forget to ask is that. Where does that leave the owners of the casino or gambling platform ?

This is gambling and the earlier people started accepting that fact that there is nothing like winning in gambling except you are just very lucky which is rare to a very large extent, then the better it would be for them to have the right mindset when it comes to gambling or not even just gambling at all if they cannot control themselves.

In addition to making money, gambling can also train us to be able to control emotions well. We can also get new friends there who might be our relationship for business. But of course there is a bad impact from gambling, besides losing money we will also be trapped and addicted to continue gambling if we are not able to control emotions, even worse we will begin to owe to gamble. So we must be wiser to take the positive side of the gambling game.

So we must be wiser to take the positive side of the gambling game.

So pretty much what you are saying is that it is also a gamble to be able to reap the positive effects of gambling. I agree with that and I think there are different ways to get these positive effects without having to indulge into gambling at all. Gambling does not offer anything unique that we cannot get from other experiences so there is literally no reason to gamble and no excuse to be addicted to it. People just don't have this initial idea so they indulge in gambling.

In terms of making new friends, I have observed that all you can get from this environment is nothing but shallow friendship. It can easily break as it was never deep to start with. I wouldn't even consider those people as 'friends', I would consider them as 'playmates'. I started labeling people correctly so I know where they belong in my life. Friends that you picked up from some bad habit are pretty much just your mates in that part of life and nothing else. They are not able to support you in any other life aspect and they can't give you emotional support as well. Friends (as in actual friends) are quite rare and that's what makes them special. The rest of what you consider "friends" aren't really your friends and will drift off right when you stop doing what you usually do together, in this case, gambling.

I never really believed in the idea of "controlling your emotions". There's only Stoicism (which is displaying no emotion/feelings during misfortunes) and the oppression of your emotions. You can never control your emotions as they come to you naturally (and that's what makes humans superior to other animals).

It is hard to take the positive side of gambling. It is like you look for a needle in a hay stack. Only thing we could do is try not to get addicted. As long as money involved in this game, we would come back in hope of making a fortune from gambling. In my country, gambling is portrayed as a very bad thing. If you let others know that you are a gambler then, it will only do bad for your career.

[Gadhoh]

Well, that was a good explanation there mate. Gambling is good if you know your limitations and you have self-discipline. But If you are already addicted and always loosing all your financial, like earning plus not focusing on your daily routines like to go to work and forgetting to take care of yourself. Then that's the time to stop. Take a break and Smell some fresh air outside think!

There are also things that are important in gambling that remain the same discussion as in terms of discipline. Send people successfully using the marks of people who are disciplined and do not want to take advantage of a lot of time in any problem.

[BartS]

Gambling has some benefits, but there is a lot of propaganda out there that condemns it just because a few people get addicted to it, but to deny that there are some benefits is a mistake, if you play in a physical casino you'll find friendly people there and you can make new friends, sometimes you can even make business contacts by going to the casino, that is in fact a very common practice in my country where two businessman after making a deal go to the casino to celebrate, also if you like to make sports bets you'll soon understand that you will need an advanced knowledge of mathematics and probabilities to become a winner.

If you gamble just for fun and not for making money then you will enjoy gambling and that is the only benefit of gambling that you visit a casino with your friends and family members. Benefit of having some enjoyment with your lovers and apart from this there is no other benefit of gambling. Gambling is a bad thing and the whole world admits that gambling is not good.

[splacque]

I am not agree with the fact that gambling is a business or profession. It do not require any basic knowledge or education

Gambling and luck based games relate to statistics and probability which is a form of mathematics going back hundreds of years.   I studied it in college, its definitely a valid logically built business style.   It might not be how people play it but a business can certainly stop to analyse and structure their regular games to feature games that are profitable while also giving a chance to win far larger amounts then the stakes given by customers.    A simple lottery is very commonly operated by many local governments as its quite predictable and seen as a social activity, the other more varied games relate similarly

Seriously? You learn gambling in campus, maybe your country does legalize casino gambling or anything else maybe?
If that is the case then there is indeed a point if there is a section for analyzing in gambling and it is indeed related to math-related calculations, but not all countries legalize gambling and not all campuses have a gambling curriculum. But by having a lot of friends in gambling, I can also conclude if the gambling is indeed enough to be an additional income if they consistently win gambling and I have many friends like that, so gambling is not entirely detrimental, because there are still many people who take advantage of gambling, so gambling can be said to be a profession and business too.

Unless maybe to have some strategy to help you prolong your game by putting into check some form of probability and using that to gamble, I really do not see how this would in any way help anyone when it comes to gambling, Irrespective of your knowledge in mathematics or whatever, it still all balls down to luck and for what I can see so far, a lot of people who tend to rely on something to favor them in gambling are the ones who usually end up as an addict quickly.

Having friendly people in physical casinos doesn’t mean that a bad thing would change in good thing. The whole world admits that gambling is not good and gamblers have no respect even in their homes. Their children do not like them, because they lose all the money from which they can do many things for their families. It is a fact and not propaganda.

[Efiraboy]

Yes, some people can see the benefit but most will see gambling are evil and not worth to being fight for !

I just hope that they don't just "see" the benefit of gambling, they should be also feel and learn what can be done by Gambling in their lives. Gambling destroyed a lot of lives in the past, there will be in the near future and I hope people will be able to overcome those problems since not only themselves will be affected by that but also the people around him.

I don’t think that there are any benefits of gambling. Many people committed suicides because of their debts in gambling. When they lose money and even everything in gambling and there is no source of overcoming these debts then they commit suicide. They are free but the problem is for their families. Now tell me what are the benefits of gambling?

So do you mean that there are some people getting rich from gambling is not a benefit? Casinos also giving a chance for people to get a job, it is also a benefit. The most simple thing, getting new friends while you are gambling is not a benefit as well?
I wonder why do you think gambling as a very bad thing with no benefits at all.

Yes, this is exactly how addiction is formed. If we get pleasure from something we need more of it after a certain period of time. But what is more and how long is that period of time is what matters most. For example, if you were gambling 1 hour per day 10 years ago and today you are gambling 2 hours per day, I wouldn't call that forming an addiction. Gambling 2 hours per day is still okay as long as you are not losing more than you can afford to lose. Also, it's never too late to go back. With good professional help gambling addiction can be cured. I'm personally aware of couple of examples. But those were difficult cases. In fact only a small percentage of gamblers become addicted eventually. Most people can control themselves.

well said!
I don't really think that most of the people who has the gambling (or any other addiction) problem understand that and think this includes them.

We don't have to forget that not every person can play game without the appearance of dependence to it. So, there should be a little test maybe with the first game to understand the persons willpower to stop playing when it will be needed.

This question is like benefits of robbing, looting or corruption etc. because the money in gambling is also illegal and the means I mentioned are also illegal. What the different between all these? I think that there are no benefits of gambling because it is not acceptable to any society of the world and a gambler has no respect even in his home.

When we say gambling, it is easily judged and have a negativity impact in so many people. I am also a gambler. I like this thread because what you have said is true. But those things are not buried because of so many negative things regarding gambling. I hope this open the eyes of most people. It is not the gambling itself that is bad, it is the person that abbuse gambling.

Well it's gotten that reputation with how many lives that irresponsible gambling ruined. Families, careers, these are affected mostly in a negative way by addicts. That's why the positive effects are mostly overlooked.

Well I believed that in every situation/thing has its own benefits that is positive.

Due to gambling we forget why we enter in casino,  you bad vibes fades away because of people around you. You meet new set of people,  it helps you to become more strategic in playing.

I also think that if you are good in math you can think about the probabilities to use for some specific games like dice, cards etc  that will help you to win.

Yes, some people can see the benefit but most will see gambling are evil and not worth to being fight for !

I just hope that they don't just "see" the benefit of gambling, they should be also feel and learn what can be done by Gambling in their lives. Gambling destroyed a lot of lives in the past, there will be in the near future and I hope people will be able to overcome those problems since not only themselves will be affected by that but also the people around him.

A lot of the lives destroyed by gambling to me are self-inflicted and should not in any way be put on gambling itself. People with their greedy and unrealistic mindset usually feel that gambling is a way to set them on the wealthy part and the question they always forget to ask is that. Where does that leave the owners of the casino or gambling platform ?

This is gambling and the earlier people started accepting that fact that there is nothing like winning in gambling except you are just very lucky which is rare to a very large extent, then the better it would be for them to have the right mindset when it comes to gambling or not even just gambling at all if they cannot control themselves.

I don’t think that there are any benefits of gambling. Many people committed suicides because of their debts in gambling. When they lose money and even everything in gambling and there is no source of overcoming these debts then they commit suicide. They are free but the problem is for their families. Now tell me what are the benefits of gambling?

In my opinion the topic should be the deficits of gambling, then people would give their comments about gambling deficits. Now I don’t understand what to tell about the benefits of gambling. There is only benefit of gambling and that is the end of life. When a gambler loses his money and depressed he commit suicide and get freedom from hardships of life.

It is good that you find a site which discusses the positive effects of gambling, but can you mention that benefits? Because I think that there are no benefits of gambling. Gambling is a worst thing in the world and in my life I have never seen a person who took any benefit from gambling. A person starts gambling, loses his money, lose respect in his community and finally commit suicide due to debts in gambling.

All your thoughts about gambling are false and there is no truth in it. Gambling itself is bad thing and when somebody become addicted of gambling he also becomes a bad person of a society. Most people of his community keep distance from him because of gambling addiction. In my view gambling is the mother of almost all crimes and you are depending gambling here.

[doomistake]

I hope that it comes to your mind that people might be blinded by this benefits that you have mentioned which is not totally a benefit at all if it is causing trouble in exchange for that benefits to other people or Government. This benefits that you have mentioned are only working on those lucky person in gambling, what about those people who never win in gambling and losing most of the time they gamble?

Isn't it unfair to them? gambling is a game where the risk is much bigger that what you are expecting, it is not a game that anyone could play, it is much more than that.

I was surprised because negative thoughts about gambling is so common, but positive thoughts are rare to find. So I went ahead and read the entire article. The article actually talks about the positive sides of gambling which I believe everyone should know and it made a lot of sense to me!

The article lists 7 points as the benefits of gambling:
1. Gambling Stimulates Local Economies
2. Gambling Is a Form of Entertainment
3. Gambling Can Take Place in a Safe Environment
4. You Could Win
5. Gambling Contributes to Government Budgets
6. Gambling Creates New Forms of Revenue
7. Gambling is a Form of Game Play

The article is actually a tight slap on the popular belief that "gambling is harmful to the society". So I encourage everyone on this forum to read the article and understand it, especially the non-gamblers! Gambling is not a fools-heaven, it's just another business and an opportunity to the gamblers! Hope this article would clear your mind!

The wrong economy that drives gambling is legal, because gambling will benefit the country because gambling houses will pay the taxes already in use for any legal business. Not only profitable for state taxes, gambling also increases tourism

I think the economy of the country will grow because of the gambling owners pay the tax and I think the amount will bigger because the owners take a big profit too from the business. maybe we can see in Macau and las vegas which gambling is legal, many tourism come to that places just for playing gambling. but I think there will be many negative from the gambling that we should aware so we don't play gambling in every day and spend a big money on the games.

Yes, there are still also a lot of benefits of gambling and we cannot deny that fact, we can hit a jackpot in no time and we can be a millionaire that we didn't expect, but we also be careful because we must also know that it is still risky and we need to take some limitations for it.

[iMark]

Gambling has some benefits, but there is a lot of propaganda out there that condemns it just because a few people get addicted to it, but to deny that there are some benefits is a mistake, if you play in a physical casino you'll find friendly people there and you can make new friends, sometimes you can even make business contacts by going to the casino, that is in fact a very common practice in my country where two businessman after making a deal go to the casino to celebrate, also if you like to make sports bets you'll soon understand that you will need an advanced knowledge of mathematics and probabilities to become a winner.

Yeah thats why I always mentioned that there are good influences and bad influences that are on gambling, it might get some bad effects when losing or becoming an addict and it will be bad for your finances, but there are some benefits that don't look, like getting friends, partners, or even business partners

That is true but we also cannot deny that there are more risk than the benefit in gambling, if you talk about hit a jackpot, it's only a very small chance to get that.

Gambling can be entertainment when people using it for entertainment but when they are expecting to make profits from the gambling sites then it will be a problem for our life.Gambling has more problems than benefits just as you said gambling is for the lucky people if someone can't win in gambling then they will lose their capital money and also OP has much deeper form of benefits like it can make revenue for the governments but I don't think any real life casinos paying taxes for the income they have made.

In addition to making money, gambling can also train us to be able to control emotions well. We can also get new friends there who might be our relationship for business. But of course there is a bad impact from gambling, besides losing money we will also be trapped and addicted to continue gambling if we are not able to control emotions, even worse we will begin to owe to gamble. So we must be wiser to take the positive side of the gambling game.

If you gamble just for fun and not for making money then you will enjoy gambling and that is the only benefit of gambling that you visit a casino with your friends and family members. Benefit of having some enjoyment with your lovers and apart from this there is no other benefit of gambling. Gambling is a bad thing and the whole world admits that gambling is not good.

Right, we can not say "bad" if a person go to casino just for fun or getting social, but if we look the viewpoint of money, it could results badly like losing money or losing reputation afterwards.

Or you can simple call it bad if he has no experience whatsoever and still tries to beat the house.

[ethereumhunter]

The advantage of gambling will be less than the disadvantage of gambling itself because we risk our money in all the games we played without any guarantee to get it back or to recover the losses. We still can play gambling, but we cannot get any benefits from gambling except losing the money, so we need to careful to spend the money in the gambling games carefully.

[tokeweed]

Benefits of gambling you guys say?  Yes!  If you have a nagging wife that you hate, you can gamble online at home to avoid her.  And if she wants to divorce your ass cos you gamble too much...  Just sign the papers and you get what's half of hers.  Full benefits achieved.  Lololol.

[fiomcorka]

I hope that it comes to your mind that people might be blinded by this benefits that you have mentioned which is not totally a benefit at all if it is causing trouble in exchange for that benefits to other people or Government. This benefits that you have mentioned are only working on those lucky person in gambling, what about those people who never win in gambling and losing most of the time they gamble?

Isn't it unfair to them? gambling is a game where the risk is much bigger that what you are expecting, it is not a game that anyone could play, it is much more than that.

The benefit at the end of it all is even much more related to the casinos and the government anyway but for the gamblers, they are just more like the donors in this scenario and a whole lot of gamblers do not know that.

The thing with gambling that has made a lot of people to become a victim of addiction is because they so much focus on the aspect where you can win a lot of money if you are damn lucky and then discard the aspect where you will have to realize that as much as winning can come into the show, losing can even come into the show with more rapid force than winning.

Gambling may have benefits for those it has benefits for, but generally for gamblers, except you are able to cart away with some huge amount of money by luck and realize how lucky you are to use it effectively well, then, that is when I would say it was beneficial to you.

Do you think that gambling has any benefits? Yes I agree that there is one benefit of gambling, when you win big money in gambling, quit immediately and never come back to gambling. Start some respectable job or business and spend your time happily with your family. I don’t think that there are any other benefits of gambling, which are good for life.

We can make a limitation for using the money in gambling, so we don't have to lose much money, and we need always to think and remember that playing gambling is only for fun. We can choose between losing more money or we can having fun in the gambling games, and I think having fun is the benefits of gambling but maybe there will be the other benefits of gambling itself which we don't know.

You will have to risk in order to win something. You gain nothing if you are not willing to risk. And it is not true that you can not make any thing, that you will loose everything if you gamble. Gamble is something related to luck. If you are lucky and gamble responsibly, you can will be making something out of it. I have seen people win a lot of money and never ever came back. You just need to know when to stop.

Well, that is like a situation in a comedy movie that will be done by the MC. It is funny that people make gambling a time spending entertainment but I don't think it will be a good solution to your nagging wife or dissapointing life. I guess the only thing that is better for gambling is that people will be able to realize that earning money is not easy as betting your money into gambling that will win easy money.

No, that is not a benefit of gambling at all. There's a possibility that that might happen to you but it's not part of the gambling itself. Besides, the amount of people losing is far greater than the amount of people actually winning. Another thing that I have to point out is that why would you need to hit the jackpot from gambling before you can apply for a job? Last time I checked, they don't require money in order to accept you. They require experience and a degree. You can be a rich person but still be not qualified to a certain job in the same sense that you can be a poor person but still be qualified for a job.

With that being removed from the list of gambling benefits, gambling is left with zero benefit.

Benefits of gambling you guys say?  Yes!  If you have a nagging wife that you hate, you can gamble online at home to avoid her.  And if she wants to divorce your ass cos you gamble too much...  Just sign the papers and you get what's half of hers.  Full benefits achieved.  Lololol.

That might be made as a joke but I have to say that it's an immature choice. You can simply man up and talk to your wife and say that you're unhappy about your marriage instead of losing money from gambling just to create something that will break your relationship apart. What will you do if she was able to tolerate your gambling? Is it really worth the money and the stress when you could have divorced in a better manner had you only manned up instead?

Due to gambling we forget why we enter in casino,  you bad vibes fades away because of people around you. You meet new set of people,  it helps you to become more strategic in playing.

I also think that if you are good in math you can think about the probabilities to use for some specific games like dice, cards etc  that will help you to win.

I don’t think that what you mentioned here are the benefits of gambling. New set of people, new ideas, new casino, new gambling planes. These are all nonsense. You mentioned these things as benefits of gambling because there are no good benefits of gambling and nobody can explain any benefit of gambling which is good for the people around him.

I think it happened to you, that’s why you know all that. Nobody can say that gambling has any benefits, because all say that you will push your problems behind when you gamble, your mind will be free while gambling, you will enjoy your time etc. but I think that when are unhappy and you visits a casino and start gambling, do you think that it is the benefit of gambling? No way.

The regular gamblers used to play what ever the considtions maybe because they are getting some kond of pleasure from it which they don't want to miss out but the people greediness is the another reaon why most of the people chooses gambling these kind of people will face more problems than the benefits.

If you want to avoid people in the world, your family, friends, relatives, neighbors then you can gamble in a place where they cannot find you. This is the only benefit of gambling, as someone says that gambling is because of loneliness and depression.

Otherwise I think that gambling itself is bad and it has no benefit at all. You will lose money, respect and social contacts with the people around you.

[ErmaburR]

Gambling has some benefits, but there is a lot of propaganda out there that condemns it just because a few people get addicted to it, but to deny that there are some benefits is a mistake, if you play in a physical casino you'll find friendly people there and you can make new friends, sometimes you can even make business contacts by going to the casino, that is in fact a very common practice in my country where two businessman after making a deal go to the casino to celebrate, also if you like to make sports bets you'll soon understand that you will need an advanced knowledge of mathematics and probabilities to become a winner.

Gambling has definitely a benefit and that is when you win a bet of huge money, quit gambling immediately and never come back to gambling. You will be successful. You took advantage of gambling. Now if you continue you will lose again and it is because of the greed for more and more money. Don’t be greedy and be positive and serious in life.

The unfortunate part to it that you are forgetting is that there is no guarantee of winning big as it all depends on luck and in reality, the chances of losing big is far more than winning big and while 1 is winning, 99 others are losing. Greed however is what makes a lot of people to focus on what they should not be focusing too much on which is winning which is why I always say as long as you cannot come to terms of having fun gambling and know that you have higher chances of losing, then you should not be gambling at all.

[naidray]

there are still also a lot of benefits of gambling and we cannot deny that fact, we can hit a jackpot in no time and we can be a millionaire that we didn't expect, but we also be careful because we must also know that it is still risky and we need to take some limitations for it.

For most gamblers generally, the benefits are really not applicable to them as far as I am concerned. Come on guys! Take a look at the OP's list and it so glaring. Everything glaringly shows that at most of it, the government and the platform or casino owners are the ones who stand to get the benefit with an assured statement even by the OP.

All the above, take a look at the 4th one which is the only thing on this list that I would say sensibly applies to a gambler, but even at that, it states, you COULD win! I guess that statement on its own is just explanatory all by itself.

But unfortunately, we cannot win a bet, and we cannot get much money in gambling because we don't have any chance to see our luck comes or not. Maybe we can say that the benefits of gambling is we can enjoy various games in the gambling places, we can meet new people and talk to them or discuss anything, we can learn about focus in one game. But the one thing that we must remember that playing gambling can make we lose big money so we need to know when we should stop from the games.

[Abiky]

Gambling can be entertainment when people using it for entertainment but when they are expecting to make profits from the gambling sites then it will be a problem for our life.Gambling has more problems than benefits just as you said gambling is for the lucky people if someone can't win in gambling then they will lose their capital money and also OP has much deeper form of benefits like it can make revenue for the governments but I don't think any real life casinos paying taxes for the income they have made.

Just as with anything in life, there are advantages and disadvantages. It's known that gambling has more negative things than positive ones, but that's no reason for people to spread misinformation that gambling is completely bad for your life. There are a few good things within the field of gambling, which could benefit your financial life easily. With gambling, you can have fun and interact with other players. On skill-based games, you could easily win them if you're quite knowledgeable. However, games that are based on randomness such as Dice or Slots, have more risk and are based in pure luck.

It all depends on how much money you spend in a gambling site, and if you're able to achieve self-control. Because, if you spend all your life savings into a gambling game without taking into consideration your financial future, then you could lose it all. Therefore, only spending your spare money for gambling is the wisest choice yet, enabling you to experience the benefits inherent within such field for quite some time. Just my thoughts

Gambling has some benefits, but there is a lot of propaganda out there that condemns it just because a few people get addicted to it, but to deny that there are some benefits is a mistake, if you play in a physical casino you'll find friendly people there and you can make new friends, sometimes you can even make business contacts by going to the casino, that is in fact a very common practice in my country where two businessman after making a deal go to the casino to celebrate, also if you like to make sports bets you'll soon understand that you will need an advanced knowledge of mathematics and probabilities to become a winner.

Gambling has definitely a benefit and that is when you win a bet of huge money, quit gambling immediately and never come back to gambling. You will be successful. You took advantage of gambling. Now if you continue you will lose again and it is because of the greed for more and more money. Don’t be greedy and be positive and serious in life.

I don’t know that there are any benefits of gambling. You can say the benefits of online gambling. Yes online gambling has some moneyless benefits, like no need to go anywhere for gambling, gambling from your bed, no fear of looting and snatching, no time limits, no payment hazards. Apart from these benefits I think that gambling is totally destruction.

Winning in gambling is not a benefit. Why can I tell? Well it is common for gamblers to hope that they will be winning the big prize whenever they gamble and if they do, it is obvious that they will be going back to gamble hoping to get more or get back to what they had lost in the past in which, they don't really get back because they are continuously losing.

Still you're controversial....

Winning in gambling is not a benefit. I can win in gambling and still benefit by leaving the Casino when i left with a positive profit...

Do you think that gambling has any benefits? Yes I agree that there is one benefit of gambling, when you win big money in gambling, quit immediately and never come back to gambling. Start some respectable job or business and spend your time happily with your family. I don’t think that there are any other benefits of gambling, which are good for life.

No, that is not a benefit of gambling at all. There's a possibility that that might happen to you but it's not part of the gambling itself. Besides, the amount of people losing is far greater than the amount of people actually winning. Another thing that I have to point out is that why would you need to hit the jackpot from gambling before you can apply for a job? Last time I checked, they don't require money in order to accept you. They require experience and a degree. You can be a rich person but still be not qualified to a certain job in the same sense that you can be a poor person but still be qualified for a job.

With that being removed from the list of gambling benefits, gambling is left with zero benefit.

Benefits of gambling you guys say?  Yes!  If you have a nagging wife that you hate, you can gamble online at home to avoid her.  And if she wants to divorce your ass cos you gamble too much...  Just sign the papers and you get what's half of hers.  Full benefits achieved.  Lololol.

That might be made as a joke but I have to say that it's an immature choice. You can simply man up and talk to your wife and say that you're unhappy about your marriage instead of losing money from gambling just to create something that will break your relationship apart. What will you do if she was able to tolerate your gambling? Is it really worth the money and the stress when you could have divorced in a better manner had you only manned up instead?

I think that the gambling always results in worst. You will lose everything if you continue gambling for long time. I have seen deficits of gambling more than its benefits. By the way I don’t understand that a bad thing has benefits too. When something takes you in debts what should be its benefits. It is a matter of money and you will lose your money at the end.

Even with the regular gamblers, except for those who have already accepted that they are just having fun and they are not expecting anything serious apart from just having that fun, they are the ones I would say because of their mind control they can easily accept losses at the end of the day, but in the real sense, apart from that which I mentioned, I really do not see any benefit gambling brings to a gambler unless the gambler gets lucky and in most situations, luck is something that is very hard to come by.

The unfortunate part to it that you are forgetting is that there is no guarantee of winning big as it all depends on luck and in reality, the chances of losing big is far more than winning big and while 1 is winning, 99 others are losing. Greed however is what makes a lot of people to focus on what they should not be focusing too much on which is winning which is why I always say as long as you cannot come to terms of having fun gambling and know that you have higher chances of losing, then you should not be gambling at all.

There is no propaganda about gambling bad consequences. If you want to depend gambling its ok but you will have to admit that gambling is the worst thing in life and if you continue gambling you will lose everything, money, car, property, business and even your house, because I have seen this many times in my life. I am not telling a story of a film but this is fact.

Today evening, I was spending some free time by surfing various websites. Suddenly a website caught my attention which talks about the benefits of gambling. I was surprised because negative thoughts about gambling is so common, but positive thoughts are rare to find. So I went ahead and read the entire article. The article actually talks about the positive sides of gambling which I believe everyone should know and it made a lot of sense to me!

When we say gambling, it is easily judged and have a negativity impact in so many people. I am also a gambler. I like this thread because what you have said is true. But those things are not buried because of so many negative things regarding gambling. I hope this open the eyes of most people. It is not the gambling itself that is bad, it is the person that abbuse gambling.

Well it's gotten that reputation with how many lives that irresponsible gambling ruined. Families, careers, these are affected mostly in a negative way by addicts. That's why the positive effects are mostly overlooked.

Well I believed that in every situation/thing has its own benefits that is positive.

Due to gambling we forget why we enter in casino,  you bad vibes fades away because of people around you. You meet new set of people,  it helps you to become more strategic in playing.

I also think that if you are good in math you can think about the probabilities to use for some specific games like dice, cards etc  that will help you to win.

All your thoughts about gambling are false and there is no truth in it. Gambling itself is bad thing and when somebody become addicted of gambling he also becomes a bad person of a society. Most people of his community keep distance from him because of gambling addiction. In my view gambling is the mother of almost all crimes and you are depending gambling here.

I don’t think that what you mentioned here are the benefits of gambling. New set of people, new ideas, new casino, new gambling planes. These are all nonsense. You mentioned these things as benefits of gambling because there are no good benefits of gambling and nobody can explain any benefit of gambling which is good for the people around him.

A negative thing has also negative impact. Gambling is assumed a bad thing all over the world because it has destroyed thousands of people and even their families. The benefits of gambling in my opinion are nothing and all about deficits around gambling. The consequences of gambling sometimes take you to the end of your life because I have many cases like this.

Both of your post says the same thing, that the consequences of gambling is bad. People loose everything for them as well as around them! I would not contradict to that because this situation is true for the "addicted gamblers" who try to make their living through gambling! That is where the problem is! If someone is relying on such an income source which is usually meant for entertainment and not for income, it's the fault of them and not of the source! Ain't it?

There are surely a lot of examples available for people who had lost their belongings because of gambling, sure thing! It is because their own addiction and not because some gambling house forced them to play! So how can you you blame the entire business for someone's personal issues?? There is no propaganda, it's a simple business!

We have different threads where people have literally said they have lost everything or lost huge amount of money and what they should they do now. Well now nothing can be undone as it was their rationale decision taken to gamble inspite of knowing the fat that one can easily lose in gambling.

I only went to las vegas one time (it is illegal to gamble where I live) but I like the beautiful women
