Does convince people to enjoy gambling is a wrong idea?

[Symphonized]

Convincing them to gamble for fun rather than to convince them to make gambling as a source of income is much better.

But regardless of the reason of convincing the new gambler there's a tendency that he can still be addicted if he can't control him/herself. And if ever the situation come up to that point, you are no longer part of it as long as you warned him that addiction is going to be one outcome.

Yeah it is the right thing. I also want that people should gamble only for fun and entertainment and not for making money, because when a person wants to make money from gambling he would become gambling addicted and then it will be hard for him to quit gambling. Gradually his life will become worst and people will keep distance from such person, even his family does not respect such person.

You can't stop if a gambler wants to gamble for money.

But going to the possible outcomes like those is what make us think and worry about them. We know the gradual effect of gambling can be worse not only to the gamblers who are into for money but also to those that are gambling for fun.

Overall and in the end ii will be their decisions and you can't decide their destinys

well we all do sometimes try to let people know of the good sides of what we do but most times we forget to highlight the negative aspects. I think you should explain to anyone who wants to join both the benefits and risk.
Also, always try to examine the person yourself if you know him and refuse to teach if you think he'll go wayward.

Very nice statement, fully agree with you.

You made it as sum of what it realy need to be made.

Everyone have their reasons for gambling and just as OP said, he gambled for fun and entertainment only but I do believe it’s not good to introduce someone to gambling for the purposes of entertainment when he can’t control himself, there are other avenues of entertainment out there.

Yes that's what I'm saying that no one can stop them if they want to gamble for money or even for entertainment.

We can encourage, we can give advices and tips but the decision is still on their hands on how they are going to react when they gamble. Talking about destiny's, we don't even know what will be their fate on it unless they experience it on how gambling can change everything with their lives.

I felt guilt for convincing the people to come into gambling when some of my friends I invited them for gambling got addicted very soon so we need to pick the right kind of peoples for making them gambling if we have the poor people to make into gambling then it may affect them and their family life.

Convincing friends who aren't in the habit of gambling to join, is a bad idea even though at first we just wanted to have fun. Many people who at first just fad with gambling, but at the end become very addicted. The dream to get easy profit with less efforts often lead people to ignore the risk that may occur because of gambling.

Yeah I think that it is the worst thing in the world. It means that you are convincing somebody for a bad habit because if he became gambling addicted he would not be able to leave it easily. He may lose all his money and even everything and may become criminal.

These all because of you. Why you not convince someone for cryptocurrency investment? so that he will also earn some money for his future instead losing his money in gambling.

Right people will never gamble, because it is not about the people that they are bad but it is all about gambling, because gambling itself is not good and when a person become addicted, he also become bad not for all but for himself and for his family. In my opinion nobody should anybody to gamble because you can convince then for good cause and not for gambling.

[ethereumhunter]

Convincing people to enjoy gambling is not wrong, but we need to choose the right people who can control themselves in the gambling game because it's too difficult to find that person. Mostly, people come to the gambling place to win the game, and they spend much money to expecting to get a big win, but they cannot get anything except losing their money. So, when you want to convince people, I think you should check that he can control himself or not and it is better not to share anything about gambling with other people that don't know anything about gambling.

That is right, there are a lot of other entertainment out there and most of them don't really need to be spent a huge amount of money. There are online games where you can enjoy playing game with anyone randomly and you can also make friends with them the same as gambling online. Watch movies, watch live games or maybe sports. There are a lot to think of so I guess you do not need to worry about it.

[jostorres]

You should not convince people that gambling will be a quick way to make a fast buck. Gambling is profitable only in sports where you can get a slight edge over the bookmakers. In casino gambling, you will most likely lose your money in the long run so if you wants to introduce gambling to someone, you need to warn him/her on the risk he/she is facing.

I can imagine how gullible someone that would get convinced based on something like that would be to have gotten convinced in the first place. Anyone in their sane mind will not be ready to accept that gambling is enjoyable and even if the OP decides to do that by convincing someone, I would say that is exactly what he believes and that could even come up in an argument for him and each person sure have what makes them tick as far as I am concerned.

However, it is always much matured when as you are letting people know that gambling could be enjoyable which is true if you perceive gambling the right way and not chasing some wins except to catch some fun, then in that case, like you said, it is better to let them understand the risks involved as well.

[Juliedarwin]

Convincing people in a gambling place is not probably wrong, but a surely too it is not good. Because you're making a wrong move to a put your own self into a things that people have there own decisions to make than to convinced them.

[eann014]

There is nothing wrong if we enjoys our game in gambling and if we want to convince other people to enjoy, but we cannot control our emotions, we can feel what we want to feel depend on what is happening in our game and what will be the outcome.

So I think you need to help your friend if somehow he becomes an addicting person in gambling because you are the person that convinces him to enjoy gambling. Maybe he cannot get what the meaning of enjoying gambling and makes him continue playing gambling and makes he lose his money. No matter what, he still your friend and it is your duty to get your friend and leave the gambling games. And if we want to convince people to enjoy gambling, we need to select who is the right person that can know what gambling games are so he can avoid becoming an addicting person in gambling.

Yeah you should feel guilty because convincing people for gambling means you are committing crime, not everywhere in the world but in most of the countries. You should do opposite of this. You should try to prevent gamblers from gambling and tell them the bad consequences of gambling. It is much better to convince them for some positive and respectable work.

I think you should serve your energies for some good work instead of wasting time in convincing people for gambling. After doing this work they will become gambler and you will be their boss. You are thinking to be the cause of gambling in your community. Think better for your loved ones and not to bring them toward gambling which is not acceptable to respectable people.

Gosh! I love this forum!! Has there ever been a day I do not get to see some comments that are extremely funny and laughable ? How on earth is he committing crime for bringing people into gambling or trying to convince them that it is enjoyable ?

Everyone as long as they are of age should be able to make decisions on their own rather than getting themselves convinced by someone. Do not get me wrong, I am not saying what he has done is a good thing, but saying he commits a crime by doing that does not sound right either.

Everyone may have their own perspective into looking at things, but usually, if you know yourself and what you believe in, you cannot be convinced and anyone who gets convinced to me is just weak to make proper decisions on their own. Nonetheless, it is a very wrong idea, because in the case where such persons get to become an addict, he might have his conscience to judge him.

I laughed as well but I think what he's saying is that in some countries, gambling is actually not allowed, hence, a crime.

Everyone has indeed their own brains to think so let's just build a middle ground instead. I think the middle ground in here is instead of convincing the person to not gamble or instead of convincing them to gamble, lay down all the pros and cons of gambling. Tell all the advantages and disadvantages as well. Maybe you can also speak from experience. Then, let the person himself decide. "Convincing" someone would mean that you're trying to achieve a particular outcome. If he indeed start gambling because you successfully convinced him, then you sure are to blame when he gets addicted. But if you simply enlighten the person, you gave the person the freedom to choose. You're never to blame.

It's a win-win situation for both since you were able to help him know gambling but at the same time, you were able to give them a choice that's only made by their thoughts alone.

Very true! But the fact is that so many people who gamble today already know the pros and cons, they know the effect it has on humans in the past and the effect it will keep having, but because they have chosen to be greedy, have the wrong mentality, and just after the chance of getting rich quickly without having to work for it because they heard some have, they tend to discard the cons and then focus only on the pros.

It is still a decision that balls down to each individual and even though I understand it is reasonable to always let people understand what they stand to lose and gain at the same time, still, it is a decision that most times, even without telling them, they would have taken anyway. Give people water to swim or hot charcoal to sleep on, trust me, some people would rather choose the one that hurts the most.

Only way is let your friends know some worst experiences about people how they have lost everything if they continue gambling for winning the money and not playing and enjoying the best of the times from it. This might help them the seriousness of the cause and they may not be gambling that frequently if they understood it.

This is why that we need to take responsibility for people that become a gambler, and we need always to remind them to not playing gambling every day. We still need to watch them, and in their side, in any time they played so, we can tell them that their time in gambling is enough and they need to leave the game. They will accept for what we did because we want to make sure that they do not become an addicting person in gambling and besides that, we don't want to see they are loss bigger money.

[rickadone]

I always have a mindset that gambling is fun and entertaining, I used to played for profit but now I played for entertained myself, I like to share my point of view about gambling, but I afraid when I introduce gambling to someone who cant control himself or herself then it can become a problem, and I can become the one that make him/her become addicted

So in one my hand I'd like people to enjoy gambling but in one hand I afraid it can turned into disaster and I could the person that cause the person become addicted, so I kind of confused when someone come and asked me to teach or explained thing about gambling, should I teach them or I just ignore them? How can I teach or convince them that gambling is only for fun? Is it a wrong idea to teach or convince them to gamble for fun?

Not necessarily a wrong idea because if your purpose only for inviting them to gamble is to also make profit it is definitely have a point. Yet if you only want them to spend their money and profits to gambling and for them to give you some profit, of course it is a wrong idea. And we must all put in our mind that gambling isn't the key to earn. We must use this in short time only not for long term platform to earn.

I would say actually giving people the wrong impression is something bad without letting them understand the risk involved and in that case, you might have yourself to blame in the long run if they tend to make the wrong decision based on what you informed them.

Usually, everyone should be able to think on their own feet and know what they want to get involved in, but usually because of greed, they tend to just discard trying to keep in mind the risk but instead focus on the things they should not even be focusing on.

Gambling is not even a profit making venture in the first place, so why would anyone want to listen to such if they are not thinking gambling will give them what is hard to find.

We all know that gambling is a good thing or idea in order to earn profit by fast mode. Gambling is very entertaining, in terms of excitement and enjoyment gambling I think is in the top of the most all over the other ways of earning. Yet gambling also have a negative effect like when you excite too much and gone for greediness. People must not be confused that gambling isn't a good thing long term way of earning but risky and must not abused.

But sometimes we never truly get to know people. Someone might look perfectly capable of enjoying gambling but become addicted to it. Stop taking the risk that the person can enjoy such thing and redirect them to other fun things like online gaming, sports, and art. There are other things that people can enjoy without risking themselves in getting hooked to it and lose so much money from it. The involvement of money is what makes gambling enjoying so there's really no such thing as "gambling only for fun and not for profit". Imagine a casino where there's no money involved and there's just tokens. Eventually people will give the tokens equivalence to real money. If they are unable to do so, they are going to leave. Playing cards for nothing is unenjoyable. You can at least punish the loser by making them do silly task, at least, so there will be some reward going on for the winner.

Yeah it is completely wrong. Why you do not convince people to invest in crypto? It is much better than convincing then for gambling. It means that you are dragging the people around you to this hill. If somebody gets gambling addictor and he lost everything in gambling, what would he think about you? He will definitely blame you for his bad conditions.

Letting know them about bad experiences is okay but they are adults and probably they can decide what is good what is not for themselves. I think, we should avoid talking about gambling with a person who has a potential about being a gambling addicted.

Or we simply help him out as well.
We should be able (us more experienced ones) guide new ones to gambling and in a way they do not start getting addicted even when it's not their destinys (to become gamblers).
