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.
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?

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
