This is not at all a benefit. I mean if the user has a disease which spreads upon contact, then definitely the person need to take care of that and have to avoid any type of meetings with other person. You just irrelevantly joining this with gambling mate. Yes he is gambling in order to pass his time or for recreational purpose. But this is not at all a health benefit, and I am sure on this.
You're not alone on this thought. No matter how many times I've read the post, but still I didn't get the idea why there is an element of health benefit while the person who had severe lung related disease is gambling at the comfort of his home. I mean, where is the health benefit there? Is there a remedy in gambling, does the person's condition became better and better as he gamble every day?
Well, if that person is really into gambling, then online gambling would be best for him as the disease maybe contagious. That is not what we call benefit, it is prevention and that is better than cure.
I agree with you, the benefit is more appropriate if the gambling winnings can be used to buy medicine until he recovers and can return to his normal activities. If you just want to avoid crowds because of your illness, but still want to engage in gambling activities, that's more of a choice. So the choice is between going to a physical casino or gambling online.
In my opinion going to a physical casino has its advantages as well as disadvantages. It's okay to be entertained but there is no real guarantee of winning in gambling. If the person loses if he is sick it will be worse for his health. He will never recover physically if he worries too much after losing. In order to maintain his health he should keep himself occupied with activities other than gambling that will help him recover quickly.
You made a clear and correct statement where you iterated that both disadvantages and advantages could be attributed to physical casinos, which is what I would like us to extend to online casinos as well. This further explains why we should take advantage of the pros in them whenever we feel like opting for them (our option) and not look towards the disadvantages side only. But the negative side of the physical casinos you mentioned here has no basis and peculiarity as it happens generally to all casinos. Whether it is online or offline, loss is so possible, and it is more possible than winnings, so it is not peculiar to the physical casinos. Also, if someone is sick and loses big in physical casinos, the same can also happen in online casinos, and if not managed well, it could truly worsen the health situation.
This is why we should not gamble with the money we can't afford to lose, otherwise, it will make us lose more than the money itself, and this could be the cause of worsening health, which may cause depression and other things like that. For me as well, I seldom visit physical casinos, and if at all I visit, I will just go for the large one which is not in close proximity to my house, which makes me visit it only on purpose. The main reason why I visit such a place is to mainly entertain myself with some gambling extras that can't be found whatsoever in small physical casinos and online. This is reasonable enough and the outcome of my gambling can't be an issue because I've already known the money I would spend there and how to spend it as well.
