A gambler's family action.

[GigaBit]

Money can be intoxicating sometimes and only a few percentage of persons in the world actually know how to control the pressure and influence that comes with money control. I have had so many friends who were successful in hitting some significant profits in gambling but all end up squandering the fund in different things just because they have this perception that it's actually free money and should be spent anyhow.

It is very difficult to be able to control the money we have no matter how much we have if we can't use it properly of course the money will easily run out and we don't even know where the money is used, when someone wins a bet in the gambling we play of course they have to be able to controlling themselves, it would be better to take the winnings they have got and enjoy them, rather than looking for bigger wins and spending all the winnings they have got.

Most gamblers can't keep that money after they win. As soon as they win, they want to use the money for various purposes and at one point even spend their entire winnings. But they should understand what happens if they lose when gambling again after winning. Where the money will come from at that time? Every gambler should conduct gambling with patience and spend the winnings properly. If the winning money can be invested in any investment or profitable venture then the money can support the gambler in transition from there. Since there is no guarantee of winning in gambling, gambling can be managed well if money is adequate for gambling.

During the weekend I was listening to an evening programme from one our the local radio stations they were discussing about gambling, the effects and how to manage it if you might be struggling with  addiction. And they had listeners calling in to share personal experiences or of a loved one that gambles and amidst many callers there was this very caller story that caught my interest and curiosity.

Just two questions here:
1. Dis the family of this young man went too extreme in trying to help stop their brother from gambling addiction or not?

2. Assuming you are this young man and you had to run to a distant location to carry out your gambling as you are allowed to gambling within your neighborhood and luckily you won huge sum of million dollars. Would you share that money with your loved ones who were barring you from gambling or you will just stay off from them and live new found wealthy live alone?

Share your thoughts!

To answer your first question, I don't think that any family can be said to go too far in the process of rehabilitating one of their own. Family bond can make them to go to unimaginable length to save their member. But going beyond far to extreme can be dangerous and harmful to them and their addicted member.

Although In this particular case study, I think that the family should have focused on giving him a professional help by taking him to a rehab, perhaps a psychology or psychiatrist. Because restricting him to gamble within his environment will not be helpful, because he can travel to another areas or use a mobile phone to gamble. Unless they're locking him up, which will be barbaric.

If he has any conscience he should share his gambling success with his family, because he must understand that the family acted out of concern and love for him.

The only thing that I can sell my properties for is Bitcoin, selling your things to gamble is sure to end in disaster for you, because you are betting all that money on luck, I can see that the man in the story of OP is a greedy man who only thinks for himself, that's why he won't listen to his family, they must have been telling him to stop for a long period of time before they decide to print out his photo and spread it around to make him stop gambling, the family are trying to safe themselves before the man causes more damages to their lives, my parents used to say that a gambler as a son is a lost son, as they believe or due to the past experience they have with gamblers, they believe that the son will sell everything for gambling.

Someone said this family went too far but I don't see how, if they don't stop him first he will do harm to them too, for someone who only have a house which he and his family are residing decide to sell the house so that he can gamble, where did he except his family to stay? On the streets? If he is living alone and he decide to do this to himself its better, maybe he want to sleep on the street homeless, but he shouldn't put his family in the same suffering.

I can't imagine the pain the family must have went through, this is a disgrace for them, it's a big shame and when they move out of their home every morning, they will have this feeling of embarrassment in them, as if people are all talking about them, I am sure that they must have use everything they know to make this man stop but as always, some gamblers always went too far, such people shouldn't have become a gambler from the beginning.

[passwordnow]

If I am very addicted and if my family is trying to help me quit, I won't blame and stop them. But wherever my feet is going to bring me, it's not their problem anymore but mine. So that's how an addicted gambler is and you're not going to stop until you're wholly stopped by your own and these posters or photographs that are given to the casinos just for them to recognize me, that's fine as they're just doing their thing to help me get out of addiction.

And with winning, I'll still give them their share of course. They're not other people and I have nothing against them, no grudge or what not and that's just me being me when I continue to gamble and all they trying to do is to help me out. So why wouldn't I share some money on them when I have won when I know that they have pure intentions and they don't want me to get to the extent to see me suffering and all they give me is the help that they can for me even if it means of stopping me to get into gambling shops. And if they were successful, I understand that there will be no prize money that shall be shared to them. Again, that's just me being me and I think some of you guys are also like that.

It's really a recipe for disaster if you will use your hard-earned money from your day-job and the money you generated from selling your valuable things. This is because in gambling, winning is uncertain. Anything isn't guaranteed. You might win today and lose big time tomorrow. No one can truly predict hundred percent what the outcome will be. Which is why it's necessary to gamble responsibly and to gamble with discipline. Moderation in betting and playing is essential so you won't get addicted to it. Because once you get obsessed with gambling, you will crave for it until you can no longer control your urges to play and spend.

If your family will go to an extent that will make you feel shameful, most probably it's because that's the only thing they can do to make you stop. Although I'm not really condoning that kind of act, especially threatening the casinos, but they might have been so desperate to help you quit gambling if that's the case. And it's so awful to witness that, I hope addicts will realize how much of a burden they are to their loved ones especially if they can't take after themselves.

Money can be intoxicating sometimes and only a few percentage of persons in the world actually know how to control the pressure and influence that comes with money control. I have had so many friends who were successful in hitting some significant profits in gambling but all end up squandering the fund in different things just because they have this perception that it's actually free money and should be spent anyhow.

It is very difficult to be able to control the money we have no matter how much we have if we can't use it properly of course the money will easily run out and we don't even know where the money is used, when someone wins a bet in the gambling we play of course they have to be able to controlling themselves, it would be better to take the winnings they have got and enjoy them, rather than looking for bigger wins and spending all the winnings they have got.

Rightly said but there are many gamblers who don't know how to enjoy these wins. They think that once they win they will win more and then lose their control and get greedy. Gambling doesn't always win if you become addicted to betting no matter how much money you have it will end. Once greed works it impairs your judgement leading to unexpected losses so constantly making sure you don't waste money will allow you to improve because it gives you more time to play. If you can control yourself you can bet on a variety of markets with generally favorable odds.

If gamblers think like that, they will only experience bigger losses because greed has told them to continue gambling. Playing gambling must be done with self-control so that you don't lose a lot. If he continues to gamble again later but someone finds out that he could spend a lot of money, it would be better for that person to immediately prevent him from getting deeper into gambling.

And back to the topic. His family had done the right thing and that was because they had to because they realized that the young people in their family were gambling excessively. Maybe there should be firm action like that taken by his family to prevent him from returning to gambling again. And even though the young person can go to another city just because he wants to gamble, other family members can supervise the young person so that he cannot go anywhere. This requires cooperation from all family members to ensure that the young person does not return to gambling, even in another city.

If the gambler say their family member about their gambling activities and ask money to do the gambling as their full time job.The family member of the gambler will not support the gambler at the money needed situation.But the same family will join the gambler after the gambler made the big win using the same gambling sites.If the family helped the gambler at the money needed situation,the gambler are not going to take any loan for the gambling.The gambling had the risk to make the big win in the gambling sites,but the gambler family was not accept their gambler family member to take that risk in the gambling,instead they ask the gambler to do the real job to support their needs in the gambling.The family member also check again and again about the family member gambler to get into the gambling and risking their money to the gambling sites.

1. Dis the family of this young man went too extreme in trying to help stop their brother from gambling addiction or not?

it's extreme move from his family members, when he is selling properties and losing hard earned money gambling then anyone's family will try to stop him, but this family did really huge move, like sueing the owner.

2. Assuming you are this young man and you had to run to a distant location to carry out your gambling as you are allowed to gambling within your neighborhood and luckily you won huge sum of million dollars. Would you share that money with your loved ones who were barring you from gambling or you will just stay off from them and live new found wealthy live alone?

here, his family members are trying to save him, and he already may being know that they are doing this to save him.
I would not cut my family off because I would know that they care for me and want to save me.

Selling property just to invest in Bitcoin is not 100% guaranteed of profits but it is up to 95% guaranteed, but when it comes to the other way round, like selling properties just for the sake of gamble then it is not a good idea because it is not even up to 2% sure if the gambler will win or not.
Only gamblers can do such nonsense because I don't see selling property to gamble as a good one, however what is the essence of buying the property at the first place if he or she will still sell it just because of the sake of gambling.

When every gambler becomes addicted to gambling, they think two types of thoughts, one is when they win a gambling game, they become extra greedy and they become extra greedy and think to gamble more and increase the amount of money they make with each gamble. Negative is for a gambler. Another thought of gamblers who are addicted to gambling is that when they lose gambling, they will convince their mind that they should gamble more to recover the loss, they will lose again. Gambling should not be done by calculating profit or loss but gambling should be done based on one's gambling skills. If we don't have any skill about gambling but depend only on luck, we can never succeed in gambling. Just as a gambler should not be addicted to gambling, a gambler should not gamble without an understanding of gambling.

You would really be finding yourself to be that addicted even if we do say that you are really just that doing for fun or entertainment. Yes you could play for fun but when it do becomes already a habit then you would really be continuously be playing until you would really be that making yourself that gradually becoming that addicted. You would really be finding yourself that getting being swallowed with gambling until you would really be able to forgetting those playing for fun kind of line into your mind. On the time that you would really be addicted then the one would really be able to notice it first would be your family, we do know on what are the common actions or doings of a gambling addict. Ex. Selling out possession which it is really solid indication that you are already that heavily get addicted with gambling.

You would really be looking yourself that making out things and decisions which it isnt really that something that you do prefer at first place but since addiction had already shackled into you
then you wouldnt care anymore on what are the things that would happen into you as long you would really be able to make yourself that able to play
and would go the things that you do prefer or like.

Now, while I was quietly listening to the story in my head I began to ask myself several possible  questions and one of such questions was; is it not possible that this young man can take a cab away from their location and move to a far area to carry out his gambling since his a compulsive gambler.

Just two questions here:
1. Dis the family of this young man went too extreme in trying to help stop their brother from gambling addiction or not?

2. Assuming you are this young man and you had to run to a distant location to carry out your gambling as you are allowed to gambling within your neighborhood and luckily you won huge sum of million dollars.

Share your thoughts!

I couldn't imagine that nowadays a family still resorts to such methods to prevent him from gambling. It's truly absurd because they can't apply this to all gambling establishments; it only addresses a fraction and confines him within a certain range. Moreover, with online gambling available everywhere, there's no necessity to go to a specific place to engage in gambling, right?

I believe the actions of his family are not extreme but rather unwise. It's just a temporary solution, like scratching where it itches without understanding the root cause of the itch.

I don't know the current circumstances of his life, but there must be deep-rooted reasons leading to his gambling addiction. Understanding these reasons is crucial to comprehensively address the issue.

Now I take gambling as fun but in the beginning I didn't take gambling as fun at all but in the beginning I started gambling with hope of profit. When I started gambling I had this idea in my mind that I would earn a lot of money by gambling and I would never lose my money by gambling. When I start gambling with such ideas, I realize that the reality is something different. Gambling is not as easy as I thought but rather it requires a lot of skill and experience. In the beginning I didn't use any of my skills in gambling because of which I lost most of the gambling games but now I feel that I am good enough in gambling now that maybe I don't lose much in gambling now. I made some mistakes in the beginning and because of those mistakes, I have gained enough skill in gambling today.

Agree with you, it is very difficult for someone to control himself when gambling because in gambling places there are lots of interesting things that he wants to try and maybe he has the idea that he will be able to win so he will gamble continuously without stopping. . looking at the money he has and he will only realize when he has used up his money for gambling, then he will realize and perhaps regret his actions because he cannot control himself when placing bets.
Yes, that's right, what a gambler has to do when he wins, he should leave the place and have fun enjoying his winnings, but we all don't know that the temptation in the casino is very strong, if we are weak in control then at that time we will become blind and continuing to gamble, we must avoid this as early as possible so that we don't regret it later.

Money is like a child you have to train it well to have a good profit from it. When you often put or spend your money in the wrong places no matter how abundant the money is it will eventually finish and you go bankrupt and next step in maintaining that elevated standard of a lifestyle is by auctioning a few valuable properties you have, and many gamblers are hooked in this nest.

Silly when I see gamblers spend their winning money anyhow and when you attempt talking to them about it they tell you that they're going to have another win again so let them spend this very one, forgetting that there are some gamblers like them in the queue for luck waiting for their own turn to have a lumpy win too.

It is very difficult to control yourself while gambling. Those who can control themselves and gamble will never lose gambling. It is foolish to gamble with the hope of winning while gambling. Because it is very difficult to know when gambling is profit or loss.  Then you should refrain from gambling for some time. If you lose a lot of money, then you should refrain from gambling for some time because the money will be less risky.

She told about how the family members of a particular young man that is like a plunger when it comes to gambling, his compulsive gambling is to the length of him selling his personal properties and gadgets to make sure he gambles. So what he family did was to print a photograph of him and giving it to all the gambling shops within their neighborhood and around the locality, threatening that any of the gambling shops they have pasted the photo of their brother should they find their brother allowed to gamble in the shops they will sue the gamble shop owner to court as one that is abetting their brother's compulsive gambling lifestyle.

Now, while I was quietly listening to the story in my head I began to ask myself several possible  questions and one of such questions was; is it not possible that this young man can take a cab away from their location and move to a far area to carry out his gambling since his a compulsive gambler.

Just two questions here:
1. Dis the family of this young man went too extreme in trying to help stop their brother from gambling addiction or not?

Not only are the family members getting disgraced but they are disgracing the whole family, they should find a way to solve this quietly among themselves and not to the point of humiliating one of their members

2. Assuming you are this young man and you had to run to a distant location to carry out your gambling as you are allowed to gambling within your neighborhood and luckily you won huge sum of million dollars. Would you share that money with your loved ones who were barring you from gambling or you just stay off from them and live new found wealthy live alone?

If my family is poor then I can share even a small portion of my winning, it's my family after all, they may have a rift but in the end, WE are still a family and we will have to look to each other for better or for worse, you cannot just get away from your family or abandon them, I will just give a portion of my winning and then go on my own and prove to them that I can stand on my own.

Obviously, family members of gamblers will not support gamblers who need money to gamble. They will probably strictly prohibit and will not let the gambler go anywhere and will not even be allowed to carry a smartphone. But perhaps his family will give him an old cellphone that is not connected to the internet and can only make calls and receive calls or SMS. No family wants to see their family members experiencing problems caused by gambling, so they will really look after their family members well and try to ensure that they protect their family members well. By keeping the gambler from wandering outside the house or even allowing him to go to another city just to gamble, other family members hope they can help cure his gambling addiction.

1. Dis the family of this young man went too extreme in trying to help stop their brother from gambling addiction or not?

No, they didn't. They did what they could think of being the last way of trying to stop him because they must have already tried stopping the guy and advising him not to gamble that much but I bet he didn't listen and kept doing it, so they decided to take this step and I don't see anything wrong with that because whatever they did was to keep him safe from doing bad things soon since that is where gambling addiction leads one to.

2. Assuming you are this young man and you had to run to a distant location to carry out your gambling as you are allowed to gambling within your neighborhood and luckily you won huge sum of million dollars. Would you share that money with your loved ones who were barring you from gambling or you will just stay off from them and live new found wealthy live alone?

Why live alone if you have become wealthy and now can afford to gamble? Just go back to your family, and give them some money because they did a lot for you when you weren't wealthy, whatever they did was just to stop your compulsive gambling habit which could harm you in the long run, but now when you have wealth, you can start your businesses, earn revenue from them, and gamble just for fun and the family would have no issues now, I'm sure.
