Gambling and it effects

[alastantiger]

I appreciate it when people relate their personal gambling experiences and worries about how gaming affects society. Their experiences consistently make a few key points regarding the risks of gambling addiction and its potential repercussions. The OP's narrative will be included in the gambling cautionary tale Hall of Fame. An immediate reminder of the need of making sensible decisions when it comes to gaming.

[Ever-young]

May be some individuals are better in gambling and they become successful but not everyone can make money with gambling. The teenager will have more risk because they are too emotional in their losing and winning abilities.

This is the problem that most people do have, they always use the success of others on gambling to motivate their self, like they say if someone they know who is not that good with numbers can predict perfectly and win a game which can change their life, why can't they them self do it too. This taught alone is where most people start getting lose in the gambling system, they gamble their life out trying to make a point that they can make it through gambling too, why they forget that they don't have thesame luck and skill with the person they want to compare them self with.

Sometimes most of them don't even have a paying job which can give them something at the end of every day but they depends on what they believe can come out of gambling for survival, sometimes the money they use for gambling is what they were giving by other for their up keep, instead of putting that money into good use, they will have to gamble with it, the funny part is how most gamblers  make plans with money which they are expecting from games they think they will win but at the end when the game don't play ass they plan they becomes frustrated and devastated.

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.
[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.

Since there is no such assurance in gambling, we must go through uncertainty. Expecting too much from an uncertain platform is nothing but foolish. For those who see the gambling platform only as a source of financial income, this will surely bring misfortune. Those who enjoying gambling rather than getting more from here will survive in gambling. How one perceives gambling is entirely up to them. Gambling will be known as a platform of enjoyment for those who follow the rules and can control their greed.

It is quite interesting how it is easier to see the negative effects of addiction when we look at it because someone else is having a rough time struggling. That is the main takeaway I get from OP's story.

Unfortunately, when someone is going down the path of any kind of addiction, it is not noticeable due to it being a slow process one gets used to (except when comes to very heavy drugs, behavioral addictions are a different category). Even though there are days I would rather not to read so many cautionary tales around here, it is always appreciated someone take the time to tell us about their personal experience, just hopping to see some positive ones eventually.

Thinking of casinos as a place to make money is a very wrong perception. As you said, we have to be responsible for our gambling, but that will never happen to people who are addicted to gambling and think casinos are money machines. We must be aware that casinos are companies that seek profit, their equipment is expensive and their employees must be paid, so it is impossible for them not to make a profit, and their profits come from the gamblers' losses.

So if we like gambling then play sensibly, if not then we will only give profits to them and in the end we will be the ones who go bankrupt.

Technically, We are playing in gambling because we think about having extra money by risking our own money on games. Unless you are just playing demo games or free spin then you really are not thinking about money when you go in the casino.

Thinking about profit when playing to the casino is not bad because that’s the goal on gambling to get the entertainment. It is bad when you are already relying on a casino to give consistent profit to and view it like a source of income.

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.

That is the problem because we assume that gambling gives us a passive income and think we always win neglecting the fact that losses are even more possible. If we are into gambling, we must be aware also that we could lose our money. So instead of thinking about winning, better think about enjoying the moment so it won't hurt us if ever we lose.

That's right, gambling can't be a source of income so don't expect to get a lot from gambling. This thinking is really wrong, your loss here is bigger than your win. Yes, in the beginning you win but you don't realize that your losses become bigger than your wins.

For me, you made the right decision to quit gambling and congratulations because you got out of here before you were completely addicted to gambling.

[Dessy88]

To dive deep into gambling you need to keep millions because gambling only requires money. Gambling may or may not change your financial position so it should not be your first target. In my opinion you should quit gambling if you have accumulated big capital from gambling. I have seen some gambling sites that will let you win some games to lure you and lose when you bet big money. So those who do the best work are those who gamble while having fun, so I don't want to act like that. Not all money amounts can be gambled so you should only gamble with extra money.

I see no problem if someone that had a success inspired them, even in gambling. I'm also one of most people that got into gambling because someone who won inspired me, influences from friends who won is one of many reason. The problem only starts if they don't realize how different things are going with them, and there are a lot of trails to follow if you want to be that someone who won, like the amount of bet, how lucky you are, algorithm stuff, etc. There's no problem if someone inspired you in gambling, however one should realize that every one of us has its own path on many things.

Sometimes most of them don't even have a paying job which can give them something at the end of every day but they depends on what they believe can come out of gambling for survival, sometimes the money they use for gambling is what they were giving by other for their up keep, instead of putting that money into good use, they will have to gamble with it, the funny part is how most gamblers  make plans with money which they are expecting from games they think they will win but at the end when the game don't play ass they plan they becomes frustrated and devastated.

One effect of gambling is addiction, no matter how high or low your stake is, the game itself is very addicting for all of us. It's a cliche to say, but I gotta say learn to discipline yourself in gambling or get caught in something disastrous.

We play because we think we will win. The thought of making money easily out of gambling is very cool to resist though. Just imagine yourself bragging to someone that you made money out of nothing but the courage to bet alone.

You just hope you win every now and then. It's not a career to pursue though so if you spend too much time on casinos, you might as well do your best to win. If you are not killing it, just find a job.

[crwth]

I think you have it correct. It will change your current financial status, it's just negative. That's the majority of results. Most of the time, people who are trying gambling and making themselves "addicted" to gambling and finding the time to "borrow" and make money, it's going to be a problem. You'll never know when they will stop and seize their gambling activities.

So you have people who are now just in gambling succumbed to it and is all negative. Did you try to talk to them and ask about what happened? Maybe it's not gambling that happened to them?

If you know that you could lose a lot, just stop. Have a budget and limit yourself with gambling.

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.

While it is true that some people can get addicted to gambling, there are two problems with your explanation, one you are only seeing one side of the coin and two you are misplacing the blame, about the former, gambling creates a lot of jobs and taxes all over the world and makes it a very profitable industry to run, and about the latter, the majority of gamblers can do so responsibly and if there are gamblers out there that are unable to control themselves and bet too much they have no one else to blame but themselves.

[slapper]

Your tale today is more common than most realize. The draw of gambling and the notion that it can solve all financial problems make this a tale as old as time. But reality? A horrible delusion that depresses many. It was your experience to witness the catastrophe. Dreams and lives are crushed in this world.

Gambling: What Does It Do? It promises riches but causes devastation. It's a siren's call that lures unknowing victims and drains them. Player lives are devastated as the house always wins. Worst part? A vicious loop that's hard to break.

Your words are a strong message to young people. It's a sincere cry to avoid gambling. This world takes more than it offers, leaving destruction and misery. You're right—gamble carefully and don't make it your living. This route leads to ruin.

[Weawant]

I think first of all there is a problem of mindset and this is the biggest challenge gamblers suffer and they end up thinking the problem is with the casino or the gambling site but fail to understand it may most likely be from them. Firstly changing the mindset of getting rich quick from gambling as that mind set is what get people to gamble wrongly and get their selves burnt.

Gambling I think is mostly for fun and if seen like this then it makes it easier and healthier for gamblers, have you noticed when the rich gamble they gamble differently from the way the poor gamble and they even end up more profitable from it than the poor do, this is because the make fun from it and not see it as a means to getting rich but when ever it turns in their favor they become richer.

But people who gamble because they want to get rich risk too much and end up sad when it doesn't favour them of which they should know they took more than necessary risk which have coat them the much bit cost them and probably their greed level also contributes to their risk appetite, don't be greedy, gamble for fun not to get rich and that way you will gamble better and not become miserable gambling

Most of you guys are preaching to the choir. We are all gamblers here and telling us the obvious that it's bad and it can hurt us makes no sense. It's funny how every week someone comes here to start a thread like this and half of the responses are made for no purpose. People applaud the OP and say, you're right, gambling is bad, and nothing happens. A week later someone else starts a similar thread.

I have to admit that in reality this is the case and this only goes around here and there, where in the end it boils down to self-control and how to limit your gambling.

gambling is fun, gambling is a man and gambling is a hobby.

Last time I checked gambling was not a man, but an activity a man can perform.

I am aware of this and indeed gambling never recognizes gender, class or anything else. However, gambling is a common activity for men and whether we realize it or not, the majority of people who participate in gambling are men compared to women. and in several places when you see a woman gambling, it seems strange and not in accordance with the style of women in general.

You want to go deeper on Topic...and how the song "...y OP se marcho..." (Latin American song, sorry), OP was not seen again on Topic/reply

First of all, the environment, both family and social, are direct influences on behavior to follow bad habits.

You must always remember that addictions come from any area, not just casinos or the so-called gambling issue, because if you are sick you do not need the refuge of a casino for this to be justified.

Young people today, more than advice, they need opportunities, economic well-being, accessible universities, good jobs, and even moments of leisure... maybe that they can bet.

No one is exempt from falling into any type of addiction, but as I mentioned, some are acquired by the environment, others are symptomatic, that is, you will become an addict sooner or later and neither the sociocultural level nor the fact that you have good intentions will save you. There are asymptomatic addicts who are the ones who can recover and lead a normal life with gambling in their environment.

But symptomatic addicts do not return, it is very difficult for them to get out of the addiction, anyone addiction, anyway, to determine if you are a potential addict, you don't have to find out by making thousands of bets and losing money, get an medical exam.

[Jating]

I think you have it correct. It will change your current financial status, it's just negative. That's the majority of results.

Yes, seen some of my friends as well getting ruined in just matter of months when they started to go into gambling, young or old. I think when they started getting involved, they really don't realized the extend of what gambling can bring to them. So even if they have a lot of money to gamble, it's not going to be enough unless you have like a source of unlimited wealth which is not going to happen.

But it's hard to advise them to be honest, we really can't. And the best thing that I can do is that when he ask me to go with him to gamble in land base casinos, I will just say No to him and maybe it will send him a signal that I don't like gambling, I just play to have some fun and not get addicted to him. Maybe just once or twice a month for me will do. But not like almost everyday that he wants to go and play online and land base casinos.

[len01]

discussions like this are often discussed here, even some threads have discussions that are a bit similar to the bad side of gambling and yes, I do admit that what you say is true about gambling responsibly and avoiding the mindset of gambling as a source of income like other threads that provide content about gambling. responsibly and the third negative thing has become an addiction. but here there is also a thread about the development of online gambling, now with the development of online gambling, all advertising promotions seem to give an idea of getting very easy money from gambling and the bad side is that today young generation is too instant in their mindset of thinking that the advertisement will actually get them. money faster in gambling. so its not surprising that there are so many gambling addicts nowadays because this is one of the impacts of the development of online gambling which is easily accessible from anywhere.

in this concept it all depends on healthy principles and thinking about gambling and knowing how gambling works is one way to provide good control for the younger generation. if someone understands how gambling works they will never consider gambling as a source of income because the gambling industry is built to provide profits to its owners not to its customers. so it is very important here that anyone who wants to try to gamble better understand how gambling works before everything ends badly.

[Issa56]

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.

You made a mistake right from the beginning. You had the wrong mindset when joining gambling. If you have it in mind to improve your financial status when gambling, then you will end up spending everything you have on gambling. If you are after money in gambling, then you might end up losing everything. Even if you are making a little amount, you won't be satisfied, you will want to increase it. In the process of doing that, you will increase the amount that you are spending on gambling, and you will end up losing a lot. The more you keep on losing, the more you try to win back your loss.

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

Addiction is very bad, and I think that's one of the things that's killing most gamblers. If you are addicted to gambling, you will end up doing crazy things that a reasonable person won't do. Gambling addiction has pushed a lot of people into committing crimes just to get money to gamble. Some of them have starved themselves and their family members, and some do sell their properties just to make money to gamble. If you want to be a gambler and you want to enjoy yourself, then try to avoid gambling addiction.

[Slow death]

We should not avoid gambling....

There are many cases of people who suffer from old age and a lot of optimism, in the case of this type of people, I advise them to avoid gambling, because they will easily become addicted or will develop heart disease, also people who know that they have a lot of difficulties with pregnancy of money should never enter gambling, people who have already been addicted to drugs and alcohol should also never enter gambling, people with a history of being very violent should also not enter gambling. So there are people who should avoid gambling. most of the time some people may think that they are strong, that they will not fall into the wrong path when they enter into gambling, but they are people who ignore their history of negative things in their life and because of that they end up entering into gambling and destroying the whole their lives

For example, a case of a person who has problems with alcohol, this person was unable to save money and used everything they had to buy alcohol, this person was addicted to alcohol, but managed to go to the hospital and was cured. Therefore, these types of people should not gamble, because they tend to become addicted quickly, he was cured of alcohol addiction, but he would enter into another addiction, which in this case would be gambling addiction, and gambling addiction It will be worse than the alcohol addiction, he will sell everything he has to continue gambling and then when he realizes that he has lost everything, he will go back to the alcohol addiction, with that he will be left with 2 addictions.
