They put an end to online gambling: what do you think it's going to happen?

[Ojinga]

Earlier this morning I was going to work in a bus I over heard, some one complaining very badly that if the government tries to put an end to gambling. That many people will die in hungry with this our economy which nothing is working, no work for people food are at higher amount in their and some people are benefiting from gambling this days, that mostly him his benefiting from gambling.

The gamblers in your country are they paid for gambling as a form of employment or empowerment? It is only when a people's source of income (jobs) are put to an end that it could lead to most of them dieing out of overthinking and other health complications out of a loss of hope but this doesn't make sense with gambling cause gambling is not a means livelihood. So it's either that young man you overheard complaining is a jobless gambling addict or he is just out of him mind.

 

they aren't payed or employed neither empowerd but they see it as a source of earning daily with a little amount, but i don't think the young man was jobless maybe his source of income is not enough for him due to his responsibilities he have, so with my understanding here is that his so much addicted to gambling that he can't stand it if they really put an end to gamling.

That with $200 he can stake and win about $100000 daily something that you won't even struggle to get, they can't even pay someone at work monthly up to that amount.

Truth is that some people that gamble do assume that they make much profit from gambling than they are losing to it but it's just a fallacy and I have always disputed it. Gamblers incur a lot of loss before hitting a win and most times before they get another win they could have experienced losses double the amount the last won.  Yea, maybe some person do make a profit (mainly the very minute few that hits a jackpot) but this number of persons are just about a 3% of the total number of gamblers found in a society. The profit is always with the house due to its hedge.

If the government can put an end to online gambling, then we have to go back to offline gambling. I don’t know why the government has to ban gambling, it doesn’t make any sense to me. I know gambling shouldn’t be taken as a source of income, but some people are gambling and they are surviving with the money they are winning from gambling, like in my country, most youth are now gambling just to make money for survival, if you stop gambling, how do you expect people like that to survive, and the government is not creating more jobs for the youth that are unemployed.

So how will you cope in your country if eventually they put an end to online gambling?

I don’t have any problem if the government ban gambling in my country, am not the type that gamble for the sake of money, I just gamble for fun, so if they can ban gambling, I will just have to look for something else to always make me happy.

If a country is having a struggling economy, the government should be doing enough to support it and create new sectors, rather than destroy the ones they deem "unsafe". Yes indeed gambling may indeed have some harmful effects in part of the population but a government should prioritize to crush corruption, create infrastructure, lasting jobs, a viable public services sector etc. Countries like Indonesia for instance have introduced very draconian measures against gambling but people still want to do it.

Instead, what are governments doing to combat their ailing public sectors, unemployment, crumbling infrastructure etc? To be perfectly honest I care more if my country has functioning hospitals, food guaranteed for everyone to eat, free universities etc. rather than forbidding gambling. So long as my country is not prioritizing these, I'd be very against my government focusing its resources in fighting online gambling.

Governments prefer easy targets. "Look, we're doing something!" But gambling ban? The country's biggest difficulties won't be solved by that. What about hospitals? Schools? Roads? These things construct a nation and improve lives for all. The cancer that erodes those foundations is corruption. You get what? A non-working system

Not letting people risk themselves to death. It's organizing. A government must prioritize what matters to make an impact. Education, healthcare, infrastructure. This makes a country strong and gives citizens the means to achieve. Regulate and secure gambling, but don't allow it detract from the overall picture. After meeting basic needs, you can focus on details. Until then, you're lipsticking a pig. Man, priorities matter. Governments need to get their priorities right

their is something I really want you to understand about the government, they don't care about the well-being of their citizens if they notice that 100% people are benefiting from gambling they don't care or mind to ban gambling. They have the power but not knowing that if they do that they're making things worse for the citizens. That's the main reason why this guy was complaining bitterly cause he knows what the government are capable of doing, and if the government knows how much that goes into casino betting a day they'll have the interest to link with him or either they ban it from the country.

That's the kind of guy who puts his mouth where his ass is. No way in hell does he see gambling as a viable way to supplant his lack in income lol.

In all seriousness though props to your government for imposing such bans, I am an avid gambler personally but I swear against it, especially when I see everyone who gets their dirty paws in it eventually fall into gambling addiction and even more serious problems down the line. In my opinion it's much better to have it banned for good by the government that I am in than see someone else ruin their lives all because of gambling, and besides, I have my ways if I really want to gamble so it's not like I'm going to be hampered by some ban.

I have a good feeling that a lot of the people in your country thinks the same way as this guy, the fact alone that they think immediately of easy money when gambling is brought to discussion concerns me a lot in itself, makes me think that a lot more people than what the government cares to admit thinks this way and that they are really down bad when it comes to gambling.

[CryptSafe]

OP this story of yours sounds fictional,  how can someone that has no job or money to eat get money to pay for gambling. I was wondering the countryman that that could do such but however, there are some people who can but I think this story of yours sounds too funny.
I could imagine your story of using $200 to win $100000 how possible could that be in d country you claimed that there is no job employment, then how do you expect someone who has not eaten to comfortablely use such an amount of money to gamble knowing fully well that gambling is a thing of luck and as such, it is very risky.

It seems to me that people who think this way are heading down a very dangerous path, gambling does not replace a fixed income, it does not replace employment, it does not generate stable profits in a way that allows people to pay bills every month without having problems, When these people say that they will die of hunger if the government bans gambling, I realize that these people are still unaware of the danger of looking at gambling as a source of income, that is not how they should solve the problem lack of food, I highly doubt that these people are winning every day at gambling

That with $200 he can stake and win about $100000 daily something that you won't even struggle to get

I highly doubt this is possible. They must be lying so that government decisions are seen as bad, it is not possible for gambling to generate these profits every day

they can't even pay someone at work monthly up to that amount.

The salaries that governments pay depend on the economy of each country, but even if the government of that country paid $200 in salary per month, it would still be much better to have that salary every month than not to have that salary and be dependent on gambling. unlucky. Gambling should be seen as entertainment and not as a source of income

So if their is no more online gambling that means definitely there won't be no more gambling at all. So how will you cope in your country if eventually they put an end to online gambling?

I would simply respect the decision of my country's government

[Accardo]

First online gambling is as a result of the internet's existence. Hence can't get all terminated. And even if the person thinks one could win such an amount in gambling which is not a lie, he still sounds naive and novice of how gambling actually works. The trouble with his perspective is as a result of gambling outcome not being consistent as some people may think. If online gambling gets terminated people will be free from compulsive gambling I guess. Or everyone heads back to the offline casino in huge numbers. People just have a low expectations from gamblers that's why they think gamblers get money through gambling and prefer doing it as a side hustle. It's a game and not a form earning more money.

I guess what you mean here is N200 to win N100,000, which I have seen many people archive even more, but they can't boast of making that happen on a regular basis because they don't control the game. If it's that simple, then the casino and gambling industries would have shut down by now.
 
But it's very unfortunate that those guys can be picturing gambling as a means of survival when the outcome is not always guaranteed. They have time and a chance to get a real job that can sustain them rather than depending on gambling.

They are lucky if they are seeing that gambling can give them their daily source of income. Not many gamblers are that fortunate to always have winnings. For that person who is seeing as gambling as the main reason of survival, he really should assess his situation if he is indeed always winning in this game or already on the losing end. Definitely, there are other options to survive outside of gambling. Find a decent job or other odd jobs to sustain your day to day needs. You will find out that  you can survive outside of gambling, if you will just explore your skills and expertise.

[SatoPrincess]

You must be very gullible if you believe that someone can bet $200 to win $100k. And this person says he wins $100k daily? I don’t care how lucky you are, no one can win that big repeatedly. Your new friend makes so much money yet he rides the public bus lol. Isn’t he supposed to be super rich, driving around in his Lambo. Either he’s drunk, a compulsive liar or a scammer looking for victims who will want to pay for fixed bets. OP keep to yourself when in public places, scammers are always looking for victims to exploit.

[topbitcoin]

Is it that easy to make money from gambling? Where in just one day, with as little capital as possible, someone can double their money just by gambling, and get profits of up to hundreds of thousands of dollars. This is complete nonsense. because in fact in gambling we spend more money than we get. And another fact, many people fall into irresponsible gambling activities and result in many losses that can make them miserable every day.

So how is it possible, when the government issues a policy prohibiting gambling, it can actually cause many people to die of hunger and live in misery. Doesn't this happen the other way around?

even though the state issued a policy prohibiting gambling. In my opinion, this is not the only reason someone stops gambling activities. Someone will continue to gamble even though the country has banned it, and this will only have a bad impact on a country and will cause quite large losses. Because this can allow the illegal gambling industry to continue to grow rapidly and become rampant in the country.

The fact that he sees gambling as the fastest means of making money without struggling about it is the problem. What happens if gambling is entirely put to an end? I'm sure he will be starting his life all over again. $100,000 is quite a lot to earn daily (that is if this information is true anyway). Yea, some persons can really be very skilled in gambling, thereby increasing their chances of winning, but a gambler who is visionary will understand that gambling is all about luck and will create an alternative source of income from the money he makes from gambling. This will help him not to over rely on gambling and also help find a balance in his life if something eventually happens to gambling. No one should be advised to concentrate on gambling alone, even if they are always lucky with it.

Perhaps, that guy is filthy rich but he does not know how to drive. 
But seriousky though, I believe those things that stranger said are pretty much non-sense. Anyone with a basic grasp on what gambling is truly a about would know that casinos and betting houses are not placed to make money, those are businesses and in order for any business to function the net money going back to the general public/gamblers is supposed to be negative, otherwise the casino would be giving money away (not a sustainable thing to do as business).

In the worst case scenario that guy was a random scammer a waiting for someone gullible enough to ask him about those techniques to get money from gambling consistently and then hook them up in some scheme from there. There are as many scammers who do their shady business face to face as there are those who try to hide their identity behind a screen. One is never supposed to allow ones greed to even consider those fantastical claims to be true..

Exactly, the only thing I think will be affected if gambling is put to an end is those who work in gambling. Of course, many people is put to an end is those who work in gambling. Of course, many people will lose their jobs, but the concept that many people will not have a chance to gain a lot of profit because of gambling is a big no. Okay, OP, give an example, article, or any kind of proof that gambling can generate a huge amount of money for a gambler in an instant, because I'm sure more gamblers are losing a huge amount just because they are thinking that they could hit a big jackpot and turn their lives upside down.
 
That's why its hilarious that OP think gambling in that way, maybe he is also delusional and wanting to earn big in gambling, little advise OP if you continue that then just maybe your life will not be in a good path.

[stompix]

you know their are set of people who feed their families with gambling?

And you know where that money comes from?
From other families that go hungry!

You are mistaken gambling with some sort of employment or business where there is value produced out of something when gambling is just a redistribution of money, there is nothing of value produced there so that everyone can get money out of it, there are 100 people betting 1$ on black and red, half of them will $1.9, half will lose a dollar and the house will get $5.
You know how this looks? 100 people had $100, now 100 people have $95, this is how gambling works, and it's pretty damn hard to always be in the ones that make money, certainly not something to be your source of food.

Gambling is multi-billion business and the same provides big revenue to the government in different ways. This is the reason why governments used to take a neutral stand without opposing and not supporting gambling. Nowadays everywhere it is possible to see the promotion of gambling platforms. People have got used to it, if there exists a situation in which gambling is stopped. We can see the start of more gambling houses functioning illegally. This used to be more dangerous than having a regulated platform.

[bluebit25]

(...) So how will you cope in your country if eventually they put an end to online gambling?

Don't worry too much about the story you mentioned, as long as it is legal in that territory, players will feel quite normal when the government issues a stop order for any activity related to service.

Although I don't care too much about how to play gambling, through a number of different channels, people share about the evils that occur behind gambling behavior such as loopholes in management causing many bad guys to abuse it and increase crime. So in that situation, I will support preventing gambling, but it is also necessary to recognize the problem from the players because they are the source of all problems, not necessarily through the means, so we also need to raise people's awareness of its use.

It does not seem plausible that somebody is earning $100k daily from just $200. If that were true, this person would not have to worry about gambling being banned because they will have earned enough money to retire comfortably.

Even if regulation becomes very strict, there is almost always some casinos willing to accept players from those regions. You might not be able to cash out in fiat but you can still enjoy your hobby by playing with crypto only.

Banning something doesn't mean that it will stop existing. Illegal drugs like cocaine and heroin are banned for decades, but drug addicts are still a thing. Illegal gambling has been existing for decades(in the countries where gambling is banned).
Banning online gambling seems like the dumbest idea ever. How can you stop a gambler from using a VPN/proxy and accessing a foreign online casino(in a jurisdiction where online gambling is legal)? The government simply can't stop gamblers from changing their IP addresses.
The idea that gambling gives the people hope to get some easy money is true, but at the same time, I think that it's kinda dumb.
Just don't expect to make consistent money by playing gambling games(and don't expect to become a millionaire). It will most likely never happen.

[Shinpako09]

Is this for real? Well, it's true. You can turn that $200 into even more, but that's kind of hard. One needs insane luck to do that. Even if they ban it, there are tons of online casinos nowadays, and crypto casinos. How are they going to do it? It's easy to bypass those using a VPN. Are they going to ban all VPNs as well? LOL. All of their funds will run out before they can completely cut off online gambling.
