Benefits of gambling? Yes - it exists!

[logicgate]

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.

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.

  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.

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?

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".

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.

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.

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.

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.

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!

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.

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.

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 !

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.

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.
