Gambling and it effects

[YOSHIE]

I just want to use this medium to appeal to the younger generation, please stay off gambling, if you must do so, gamble responsible, don't take it as your only source of living so it wouldn't milk you dry.

In my opinion, this is good advice, unfortunately, many of us don't care, whether the advice is good or bad, regarding the impact of gambling on us, sometimes we realize everything when we lose and lose everything because of gambling.

For me, everyone here is an adult, especially those involved in the world of gambling, of course they understand what is bad and what is good for themselves, the point is: We always remember to gamble professionally, meaning: separate gambling from real life activities, that each of us has responsibilities that must be carried out and carried out, gambling is allowed, the important thing is that we don't lose our common sense, there is a lot that must be done to achieve something useful for us without considering gambling as the main source in real life.

Think of gambling as a game, where in every game there are winners and there are losers, it's better if they think about it.

Growing up into a man I got used to gambling believing it will change my current financial status...

And here we are... many people start crying and cursing everything after losing in gambling. I guess we all wish to make some "easy money" with gambling, and sometimes we get lucky (some people can even get extremely lucky) but it's still gambling, there are no guarantees.

Gambling can have positive or negative effects, I would say all that depends on us... and only on us! We should know how much we can risk, and what odds we chase, we need to know that we can easily lose as we can win. If someone gambles only to win I would say that person is blind, and it will hit his head sooner or later. And that person can cry later, but it's all in vain. Before you decide to do something risky try to do it with open eyes, at least you will know what is waiting for you.

That's the problem with other gamblers, they tend to lose composure just because they are losing and they forget that gambling is a high-risk factor service. It's not like an investment or trading, here you either lose or win, no save points. That is why we cannot compare gambling with those industries that I said. In trading we could somehow pull out and save some of our money, in gambling, there is no such thing as that. There are only two ways to end, we lose everything or we win and cash out, that's if we are disciplined enough to do it.
I've heard a lot of cries here in this forum and outside, mostly in the chatroom of a gambling site but I am always curious on what they are thinking when they start to gamble. This business ain't a charity, they will take more as much as possible and would not even let you win especially in casino games. Sports betting is the key to a win. Yes, it's low profits but still a win.

Very few people become rich from gambling, most people become poor because of gambling and even go bankrupt and have a lot of debt. Gambling activities are very exciting, there is an exciting sensation when placing a bet and there is satisfaction when winning a bet. Maybe that feeling is what makes people addicted to gambling

But the funny thing about gambling is that we know that the chances of winning are smaller and the chances of losing are bigger, but we still gamble  

Yes correct, very few becomes rich because mostly people who gambles only think straight that they need to gamble and win so that they can be easily to get rich. We should avoid that kind of thinking because it will only make us more addict and also will give us bad result in our finances. We should learn to manage our emotions towards gambling so we cannot go wrong.

So, what will be the right thinking when it comes to gambling if that should be avoided?
For me is, there's nothing wrong with that kind of mindset and I don't think that there's enough reason to avoid it. What people need to do is to make it easy every time they play. Remember that in every emotion you feel, your decision making and your body movement will react. It means that you might make a move that would make you lose like playing in a rush, wrong placing of bets and so on.

Today I want to take a deep dive into gambling and how negatively it has impacted our society;

Growing up into a man I got used to gambling believing it will change my current financial status, which I was wrong, it was quite the opposite, not that am not seeing money, I was but I was too fix in making it through it.

When I finally quit the addiction, I realized that I was doing better than I even thought,

Fast forward to yesterday when I go into a betting shop to see someone, I was shock to see some of my guys in the neighborhood which I knew they where doing well, now looking wreshed an tattered.

One one thing I have noticed about gambling is that before you win a thousand box, they might have milk you of more than that.

This gambling section is really useful, not only for knowing how to gamble responsibly but also for sharing their gambling addiction experiences. It's really insightful when someone shares their story, and it leaves us second-guessing of our choice about gambling. We learn about gambling and its effects from the stories shared by people who have gambled before or are still gambling. We need more people who share their experience with gambling because more gambling ads are legal than awareness against gambling. Movies, shared experiences, and news are the sources from which we know about gambling, so learn from them and be aware.

Gambling had their own positive effect because of the more win from the gambling site.The gambler can start the business in the real life from the money he had received from the gambling site.If the gambling money was huge like 6000$,So the gambler use fifty percentage of the money to the gambling.Use the remaining money again to the gambling site.If he is so lucky,he will get the biggest win again in the same game.But for the win,he should ready to take some risk in the gambling after the continuous loss.

No matter how hard you campaign to stay away from gambling, remember that it will never be successful, gambling is like fire - when you are able to control it then it becomes your friend but when you are not able to control it then it becomes an enemy that destroys your life, forever we will continue to be presented with cases of people who go bankrupt because of gambling as well as people who suddenly get rich because of gambling, i continue to encourage every gambler to be able to gamble responsibly, the effect of gambling without control is addiction and that is what actually becomes the enemy of many gamblers.

The thing is, people, don't decide why they are gambling after they make up their minds that they will gamble, but they start gambling because they have already thought about what they want to achieve from it. So, someone who takes gambling as a way to earn money has already thought of different ways to earn money and they stumbled upon gambling and they decided that it might be the only way that can provide them with some quick profits in no time.

Those who take gambling as a way of entertainment have also decided it before they start gambling, they might have thought of different ways they can spend their time and they have decided that they will spend some money on gambling and have some fun hence they get into it and get out without any regrets even after losing the money.

They start gambling because they are curious about what gambling is like without thinking about whether they experienced losses when they first gambled. And they also still don't know what to do but as soon as they see the gambling, they think of trying it one more time or several more times. And suddenly they get a win so they think they can get another win. They don't think that they can win because of luck and instead try to chase their winnings.

And if they use gambling to get entertainment, they can think about how long they will gamble and when they should stop. And they will not think about spending all their money at one time because they are not after winning but just want to get pleasure from gambling. They also try to reduce their gambling time if they feel that gambling has given them more losses than usual because they don't want to become addicted to gambling.

Honestly, this sounds like a fairy tale lol.
So, you're saying that someone who gambles expect something good to happen in his bets so he could start his own business? Well, I'm pretty sure many would become disappointed, because when you gamble you will probably have more losses than you win and how were you able to start your business if you keep spending your money in gambling?
If you want to start a business, go ahead and set aside some money intended to your business and the others are for your leisure including gambling.

What you're saying is impossible; you cannot call that positive effect if what you stated is not true. Maybe some achieve that, but not all, so keep on track with reality and stop giving such an idea that is good to be true. I'm not saying it's impossible, but don't engrave such an idea on the reader that sounds like a fantasy. Let's be real: even if you earn what you've said, it's not sure that he or she will use some of it for business. Not all people or gamblers are the same. "The more you win from the gambling site," that phrase is nearly impossible unless you have a lot of luck.

I agree with you, even though we are serious about gambling and are sure we will win, of course it is still very doubtful if we will succeed, because gambling is just luck, if we are lucky at that time then we will win. On the contrary, if at that time we are experiencing bad luck then we will lose, so it can be concluded that the results of gambling cannot be predicted, right?
And I also agree with your opinion that gambling is like fire, if we can control the fire it certainly won't harm ourselves, meaning if we can control gambling then of course we are farthest from the risks or impacts of gambling.

That's right, making gambling the only source of income is a big mistake because gambling has the risk that at any time gamblers can lose all their money and because of this risk gambling is very risky and it is not wise to make this a job. And even if someone gambles, they should gamble responsibly where they understand that their gambling activities cannot be haphazard and must be full of calculations to avoid the risk that they will lose all their money and worse that it could affect their relationship with their family.

Good response and I agree with all of this because gambling can only provide pleasure and profit for those gamblers with the ability to control themselves over gambling so they don't make fatal mistakes that result in ruin.
There are many gamblers who have experienced failure so that they always experience bad things such as losing all their possessions or even the destruction of their family life and all of these are the consequences of gambling.
If we talk about getting rich from gambling the only people who can get wealth from this industry are the casino owners who are the main actors in the gambling business and what gamblers get is only a small percentage of wealth because the most important thing is sense of pleasure and satisfaction.

I don't know what they will do when gambling but at least you and all of us on this forum always give good advice or suggestions that might be very useful but whether they want to or not all decisions are in their own hands because all the risks or impacts of their gambling will be feel it not us.

I know someone that spends more on gambling than for their family's needs. A bit funny but yeah that's the reality of my neighborhood. Lottery, cock fight and cara y cruz are some of those examples. I know that gambling is for entertainment purposes only but for them it's the way to get money aside from their full time job as a spearo. One time they even seek for help on social media to raise funds for their sick adopted child. Addiction on gambling could literally kill us if we are irresponsible. 😅

Is it just me or this topic title have already been used a couple of times here in the community, but still gambling and it's effect is something that needs to be emphasized more in the community because the toll of the effect are somewhat devastating and life threatening too but that's if only you see it as means of accumulating income while it should be the opposite of that. Gambling is pretty simple though, I mean if you are playing and making predictions on the account of enjoying yourself, I don't think you will be affected by any effect that it provides.

The problem nowadays as I have already said other times is that the economy is stretching and is not that good for a lot of people who rely only on a less than average salary and there are a lot of such people.They start gambling in order to relieve stress and thinking that if we hit anything it will be good.They are soon to be sucked into gambling addiction as they start digging for more information and they are bombarded by Youtube max win videos,so called "strategies" and other bullshit which are not real at all,that is the real problem we need to address.

This case is almost the same as several in my country and I am sure that almost all gambling addicts from lower middle class economies mostly do the same thing, especially if an unemployed person is not much different, they always consider gambling as a source of their income but in the end they actually end up fell into poverty because of that gambling and did not earn anything except losing a lot of money.

There are even worse stories, sometimes when an addict doesn't know how to make money anymore to gamble, he raises donations for one of his sick relatives, but he doesn't use the donated money to pay for his sick family in the hospital, but instead uses the money to gamble. Until it runs out, addicts who are crazy like that are hard to save, that should be a lesson to people not to be like that, gamble wisely so they can survive an addiction that can harm people around us.

Unfortunately many will still get milked out even more, and this includes readers on here, people are too addicted to gambling and they risk money they don't plan on losing to gamble, that's why they end up looking wretched, how come you are going down without you noticing where things went wrong?

That's because they still believe that there is hope left if they continue, and it's hurting them badly, this is something I can never do, I am very ambitious but not to the extent of gambling like someone who is hypnotized by a witch creature.

People don't listen to advice but that doesn't mean we will stop warning them, there are few people that cares about themselves and the decisions they make, we are doing this for such people, thanks for sharing OP, those who will listen will listen and those who wouldn't will look away and still do stupid things.

Think of gambling as a game, where in every game there are winners and there are losers, it's better if they think about it.

Of course, we all know that there are more losers than winners, the casino platform cannot keep up if there are more winners than losers but eventually, the winner here is the casino platform, but playing for fun and not expecting profit makes us a winner also.

Setting up a casino is a business it's not a cheap business and for them to recover their cost and continue to be operational they need more losers than winners if you're not comfortable with this fact then you better off playing games like a scramble or a game of chess but still it's hard to capture the excitement the casino is bringing.
