Gambling is a choice.

[Odusko]

When there are freedoms where casino gambling is common, it is a really free country, I was in a country where there were no such freedoms, I don't know if gambling and casinos are legal again, but throughout my childhood I saw that no one could play in a casino because those who were found playing in casinos were imprisoned just like those who had those casinos, this is a bad thing, no government should prohibit these things, because this is a business and if they have their Investment in these businesses they should be Respected.

For the fact that gambling help eas some pain and passing out time it's become important that it becomes legalized but why most countries are against gambling is mainly because of its high addiction as it may bet some players tucked for life and end up struggling with that addiction for. Aveeyy a long time with its negative effects on the financial and general well-being of the victim.
But aside from that, I don't see anything bad with gambling and if one can properly manage it at the individual level everything will be fine.

It's still wise to gamble because you just want to have fun, just shows you're not after winning huge but your main desire is to entertain yourself. Remember that regrets are always in the end so think twice before playing.

Gambling has been made to give fun to the gamblers but something we need to accept the changes that happens today. People gamble today thinking that they will multiply their money. They'll think that gambling is the solution to their financial problems but unfortunately, many of these gamblers suffered instead of making money more. Too bad to see that some of them become addicted and make their lives miserable.
It was our choice indeed but something to say that it was not right to think that gambling would be considered as to be an income generator as it likely impossible.

It is not a wise thought if they think they can multiply their money from gambling. They could see many people who tried to do it lost a lot of money and became addicted to gambling. And if they could think any more, they should never even try it, especially if they couldn't control themselves.

Gambling is gambling and there is a risk of losing from gambling. It's better for them to find other ways to make money so they don't feel like they are losing money at the gambling table. It would be sad to see the money that we should be able to use for other things instead we spend it on gambling.

Maybe it's time for them to realize that gambling must be done with good self-control so they don't continue to gamble and maybe they can save their money for other things. And if they can finally get a paying job, that would be great for them so they don't have to try to gamble to make money. And that's where gambling will be an option for them and they understand that they don't have to gamble.

True talk, gambling started as a form of entertainment, but the scenario has changed faster than you can say 'Jackpot!' Nowadays, folks treat casinos like a get-rich-quick scheme, not realizing that the odds are more stacked against them than a Jenga tower.

Let's face it; gambling isn't a cash cow that you can milk anytime you want. Rather, it's more like a rodeo bull; it gives you a thrill, but might also send you flying! People who end up as regulars at the betting table often find themselves caught in a whirlpool of debts, rather than swimming in a pool of cash.

IMHO, it's high time people realized that the only 'bet' with guaranteed returns is an honest day's work. Putting money on the line should be a choice, not a necessity. So, folks, before you roll those dice, remember that there's no 'win' in gambling, but there's a 'game'. Play for fun, not for funds!

I'm a bit surprised by the replies of some members who say that you should leace the casino as soon as you make some profit. This is a bit absurd because what gamblers usually want is to have fun not to make a profit. Besides, according to their reasoning, you are at profit if you don't gamble, so my question is: why do you waste your time and money on an activity that you don't even like and exercising it would, most of the times, result in you losing money?

I understand their argument but those aren't really "gamblers" in traditional sense. If they are occasionally throwing a buck in a slot machine or what ever, they are just normal people having fun and they can't believe their luck if they win. It's their right to quit while up and hats of to them keeping it fun. But i don't get that how big they need to win in order to completely leave? Because i haven't won life changing amounts but i have won big. If i would left right after i won first time, it would have been 20 bucks or something. Is that really worth leaving?. I wonder what they see as a limit for quitting.

Its a personal matter on which it would really be just that understandable that on anything you do or engaging on, then it would really be just that right for you to have that kind of control and be wary in regarding

into your actions. You cant really just making out yourself to be that careless and not mindful on what are the con's of a particular thing that you are dealing with. We know that gambling is risky not only on the sense about losing money but also with the imposed risks on getting addicted which is something that you would really be needing to look upon because once you would really be shackled with it, then
it would  really be a hard situation for you to get out or able to break those shackles which is something that you would really be needing to adjust and be wary about your
dealings or else then you would really be on a tough situation when it becomes severe.

Ops you are very correct in your opinion on gambling because indeed gambling is a choice and you choose who scams you or not, what you explained, is a well-known tactic by scammers who want to steal all your penny through their cheap magic that makes you win at the beginning of the game bit from that point their manipulate you until the end when you are drained out.

I do not think it is a choice to be scammed. It is a very different situation to go to a reputable casino or gambling place where you are aware of the winning odds from the beginning than being deceived from someone to initially make you believe you can win, just to lose all your money in the end.
Casinos, serious ones let you know from the get go that you should gamble responsibly and no one should see such activity as a reliable source of income whatsoever. In that sense, begin scammed is not a choice.

And that is only mentioning gambling scams and not other kind of scams like financial ones, nobody chooses that.

Do you mean that gambling sites commit fraud against gamblers because they have experienced continuous big losses?
Not all gambling sites are deceptive, and not all casinos can manipulate games to make their customers lose.
Defeat in gambling is something that is certain to happen, so as a gambler, you must be able to accept any losses you experience, if you don't want to lose, don't gamble.
On this forum there are lots of big, trusted casinos and you can use one of them to get comfortable and be able to play or bet without fear of manipulation.

Unless you play in a scam casino like 1Xbit maybe you will be scammed and lose a lot of money.

And that's where gambling will be an option for them and they understand that they don't have to gamble.

It obviously isn't wise to gamble only to earn money but if you think that people that have paying jobs don't gamble then you are wrong. Even people with jobs do gamble but there is a difference between someone who is jobless and someone who has a job when they gamble, those with no job will obviously aim to earn money from gambling while the one with a job will have a dedicated amount only for gambling just to have some fun and even if lost, it wouldn't affect their normal life.

That's why, the aim should be not to get addicted to gambling so that even if you have a job, you can still gamble from time to time but it shouldn't be done very often and there should be a budget for gambling that you shouldn't cross if it's lost.

[bitterguy28]

Gambling should be your choice, you shouldn't let anyone compel or persuade you into it.

How can you be compelled or persuade to gamble? when it is obviously your decision to make? gamblign is about us doing what we think is right and better and if you are capable of being compelled then you must not gamble at all because the outcome will surely out of your plans .
and that is how gambling effect our daily activities and even our life in the future.

If you play at a trusted casino, you don't need to worry about the casino cheating you because the casino always prioritizes the satisfaction of playing with its users so you will get a pleasant experience. But maybe you won't feel happy when you lose because that's gambling. And if you don't want to experience defeat, you don't need to play gambling and allocate the money to other things that might make you feel happy using the money. But if you feel curious about gambling or want to feel the atmosphere while playing gambling, you can just play gambling right away, but of course, before you play, you have to be mentally prepared and accept whatever the outcome will be.

A little excitement in a busy working life can make a person happy even for a while. And for this reason, gambling is considered by many as the medium of entertainment. But many people cannot control themselves in gambling. As a result they become addicted at some point. For which the gambler himself is responsible. If someone don't have self-control they should not blame others.

Gambling platforms have evolved a lot these days. Also, it is now accepted in many countries around the world. But as there is still no good education about this, people always blame gambling. Which I personally don't believe because good or bad totally depends on a person.

[Theones]

We truly have the opportunity to exercise our right to free choice, including deciding whether to gamble or not and where to do so. We must confirm that the gambling game we select is legitimate and will offer a fair game. The hype, which is widespread even in the cryptocurrency gambling industry, deceived the woman and undoubtedly took her along. People who are duped by the excitement frequently fall into scammers' traps.
The woman's excessive emotions and belief that she should win more were caused by her greed, and her response was also immature. We are constantly urged to put an end to our gambling greed and to always consider the consequences. In all forms of gambling, controlling our emotions has a significant impact on every aspect of the game.

many of my muslim friends dont gamble they say it is a sin and they dont like to gamble and they are very rigid on their belief and they dont drink and they dont do adultry and they dont drink and they lead a happy contented life in their own way

This is a problem and due to this problem in some countries gambling is restricted. I don`t have such problem and can`t say how is it to gamble until you lose all your money but i saw several times how the security removed such gamblers from the casino. For normal gambler it is normal situation to lose some money and he willn`t spend all his money trying to win right now. He knows that in gambling you always lose and win, so he`ll wait another chance to bet.

When there are freedoms where casino gambling is common, it is a really free country, I was in a country where there were no such freedoms, I don't know if gambling and casinos are legal again, but throughout my childhood I saw that no one could play in a casino because those who were found playing in casinos were imprisoned just like those who had those casinos, this is a bad thing, no government should prohibit these things, because this is a business and if they have their Investment in these businesses they should be Respected.

I don`t sure that there is the only right decision. We look at this problem as the problem of the gambler. And if we have no problem with the gambling - we get unfair restrictions. But the state has to think about all its members and they have to do something to fix this problem and the easiest way is to deny gambling. In some countries we can see some special zones opened for gambling. So i see how countries try to solve it problem using different ways. And i can say that nowadays the gambler can use online casino for gambling even if gambling is denied.

Freedom that give them entertainment, an added venue to enjoy for a while and kill some time, I'm sure there are different opinions and overview in regard to this topic but like what you have said, it's a sole responsibility by the person itself to control everything. With the risk of getting addicted worse things can happen, it should be taken into account that being a responsible gambler is needed to avoid making huge mistakes and messing with your finances.

People want to make themselves satisfied in playing gambling reason why they keep playing more, people trying to risk on their life and hoping to win a game we know how much money that the gambling can give depends on your bet so if you manage to hit a jackpot its will become a good profit at the end but what it is cost?, tons of money and time not all the time every we play there's a winning sometimes red days of losing comes through. I manage to win almost 1200$ before and quit after hitting jackpot at the end of the day I win with my budget of $200 USD. I tried again playing slot games that time but didn't manage to win at the end the half of the budget get loss in the game.

Well to some of us big wins isn't the only reason for gambling. Point is to spend time and winning can make it more fun past time.
I know that might sound unreasonable but big wins aren't always a good thing. It might sound like the goal of the whole casino but those big wins are what get people with addictive personalities addicted. Brain is funny that way it remembers big wins better more clearly then hundreds tiny losses. This is where we lose track and wonder how we end up losing.

For example, i am not playing my winnings. My budget is tiny but it keeps my gambling habit fun and i can continue to gamble weekly without getting broke, i am using only half of the money i used to buy tobacco each week. Now that i quit smoking, i count gambling as better addiction. When i decided this i understood that addiction isn't always a bad thing. I for example am not denying my addiction, but i am easily addicted to anything fun. Gaming, social media, tik tok videos, walking in a forest. But i keep unhealthy addictions in check with set of personal rules i don't break.

So i don't need to quit gambling. Not quitting after winning big might not make sense to people who are trying to get rich with it. But it's comparable to my gaming habits.

Of course gambling isnt that bad as its even a business so you don't expect the government to restrict it if  they are actually earning some revenue from it but in a situation where their is no profit or a strict Muslim country where such act is seen as a error in the morals of society, the government can put a band to it but in all everyone has a choice and although I know its quite hard to stop the act but it all still depends on the particular individual.

Gambling is a personal choice; not everyone enjoys the act of gambling, and some go so far as to develop addictions. It is our priority to generate earnings for ourselves, especially independently; most teenagers are addicted to gambling, which is causing them to become buried in debt. I've seen several instances where people who are addicted are humiliated and have their crucial assets confiscated. Gambling is for our extra money, not for our budgets. I admit to engaging in gambling on rare occasions, and I keep track of how much I spend on it, I urged the youth to use caution when gaming.

They are affirmations, they are the ones made about fraudulent sites, what you say and it is true here in the forum, the sites that are there are very reliable, well, the sites that are old and have a high reputation are the ones that we all want to play, but I think that these things What they say about those sites that are very reliable is when a player has constant losses and then blames the casino for taking his money, I think those things are what some players complain about, but the game is like that, there are always many ways that the casino has the advantage, there is nothing to do but be resigned, that's how it is, you win and you lose.

Even casino where we gamble on advices gamblers to gamble wisely.
That aside, on what you said, that gambling is for our extra money, well, yeah, you are right, but I personally will not want to see gambling as a way of making extra money, because to me, something this not consistent, and can't be depended on, can't be an effective way of making extra money for me - gambling to me is all about having fun and making sports more interesting to watch, if along the line one makes money, then that his or her luck, but if he or she loses, he or she should already know before hand that it's all about having fun.
