Is gambling bad to the society?

[wiss19]

The person feels guilty about the money he lost, because he realizes that he could have spent it on something that could have benefited him. Only if we go back to the moment when he has money and a choice will he most likely choose to gamble again, because gambling causes much more emotions than even buying something useful. Any gambler sooner or later feels a sense of guilt and it is quite normal, because this kind of feelings appear at the moment of realizing their mistakes.

In that you are right, so when I was a newbie and I played a lot of dice that feeling always appeared, so when I was playing and I lost I always thought about what I could buy and that filled me with rage at myself, of course that is a thing of the past, now I do things differently, not with the same intensity, now things have changed and are seen from another point of view, a more mature point of view, where my secret is in putting up the money to lose in a casino, I don't put up more than that money because that throws everything off, so I think that all those mistakes, feelings and things that I went through helped me a lot to mature my game.

Good for you, most people don't learn from their mistakes and they keep repeating the same mistakes again and again, especially in gambling. You will often see gamblers losing a lot of money in gambling, they may feel bad about it and curse the casino and themselves due to the heat of the moment, and they might even stay away from gambling for some days, but after a few days, you will see them gambling again, and if you ask, they will smile and say they couldn't help it.

For me, I have also changed a lot. When I first started gambling long time ago, I had no control, I used to use strategies such as martingale because I used to think they work and you can recover your lost money or points by doubling your bet after each loss, it used to work sometimes, but pretty soon I realized that it is nothing more than a disaster strategy.

this is a debate that always sparks a thought for me regarding biological determinism and free will
if we can really choose or if we usually fall prey of our instincts
would love to see studies on gambling, addiction and genetics, but these are a bit hard to find.

I see some gamblers who cannot control their finances and emotions so they will be in the situation you mentioned. To be honest, I don't like someone who uses their daily grocery money or most of their salary to gamble. Especially if you are an employee and think about becoming a successful person. One must save and invest. They also have to be able to manage their finances. Especially if they already have a family. It is important to be able to manage finances and manage emotions well. I think guilt is proof that you have indeed done something wrong. You have spent all your money on gambling and you should be able to buy something useful. Start managing your finances well so you can see how much budget you have for the fun you have.

People who consider gambling as a pleasure will definitely make financial arrangements to be able to gamble every day because it is not recommended for everyone to gamble with all their money so that they cannot enjoy delicious food and cannot support their own family. I also agree more with the advice you say because from what I have seen, some people who are starting to get addicted to gambling also have to manage their finances well before they really suffer because they experience more losses when gambling.

Basically, gambling addiction is due to failure of the person to learn from his mistakes because he is so addicted to gambling that he does not understand the right thing to do, so he is constantly addicted to gambling. In fact, when a gambler wins money once, he gambles twice as much because of his addiction to money, and at one point in time, he has no money left to repay the gamble. A gambling addict is a great danger to his family. If a family member has a gambling addiction, the family members know very well how much danger an addicted person can bring to their family.

Every player should have enough knowledge about where they invest their precious assets to gain or lose. Every step here is very important. Therefore, it is complicated to win this game without prior knowledge.

People who have become addicted to gambling in excess can never win at gambling. Every resource is valuable to every human being. Instead of losing wealth and becoming a beggar on the road, one should invest by gaining sufficient knowledge before investing.

Knowledge is important in gambling because with a valuable information, a gambler wouldn't make mistakes concerning their gambling activities. Those who get into trouble while gambling are always ignorant of responsible gambling. The ignorant players actually are the ones who bring in bad publicity to the society regarding gambling. This should also encourage the distribution of responsible gambling knowledge. That's if the society wants to reduce the rate at which people get addicted and destroy the life of their loved ones. Communicating with gamblers about the need to stay responsible and limit how they gamble, will help the new players to have prior knowledge on the game before doing deeply into gambling.

Yes, when gamblers try to achieve a goal rather than taking gambling as entertainment, gambling creates a major setback for those gamblers when they lose. A gambler then harms himself and the effect spreads to his family and, in turn, to society. Gamblers who experience harm often refer to gambling as negative. But if gamblers could practice responsible gambling, they will not considered negatively. A gambler's failure to practice responsible gambling is his own responsibility. Although gambling is not seen as positive in society, the uncontrolled gambling of some gamblers has a greater effect on society.

        -     There is only one thing that I saw that you really said, mate, that I agree with, and this is that the majority of people in our society do not really recognize that gambling is good; rather, they think of it as bad. And we can't blame them for this because there are many reports that families are destroyed because of gambling.

And people do a lot of bad things because of a gambling addiction that ends up in crime, robbery, and murder. But our government here had a gambling charity legally operated but helped a lot of poor people who those don't have enough payment bills for the hospital.

I absolutely agree with you, but I've been gambling for over 15 years and I'll be honest with you, even though I once had a hard time with gambling and alcohol, I don't regret that I ever started gambling. I believe that the more diverse experience has a person, the wiser he becomes. Experience gained in gambling may well be useful elsewhere. Many people learned about cryptocurrencies, and accordingly began to invest in this area because they were gambling, and at some point many casinos began to accept BTC.

You shouldn't borrow money to gamble because not only is it not recommended, it also shouldn't be done. By learning from mistakes, of course, that is a good thing. Apart from that, we also have experience to share with other people who gamble in the same way to prevent them from gambling excessively with the aim of preventing even greater losses. Even gambling will not have a bad impact if we do it well and within set limits. with many people experiencing large losses or other bad impacts because they gamble without any set limits.

That's right, that's why I like to bring my example because that was a product of my irresponsibility at that time, so in this order of ideas when you already have a family in your care where you are the only person who works for them, you can't fail, because you are the head of the family, then you have to solve it somehow, sometimes in the forum we come across a series of problems that we do not air, but somehow we can get ahead, and in those moments it's incredible the amount of things that come to you, even the forum system itself with some toxic Users also affect in some way, but the important thing about that is that you have to know how to get ahead, sometimes you have to make sacrifices just to avoid failing, that's why it's important to be responsible Above all , because in some way when you have a family, you can't fail.

Yes, that is the reality we see today from the perspective of most people around the city.  when in reality not all gamblers are bad addicts.  some of them do not involve anyone in their gambling activities.  and it doesn't even involve other people's finances, which often happens in the case of gambling addicts. 
However, we as gamblers cannot escape from such judgments, just do what we need to do ourselves, as long as it doesn't harm other people.  we'll be fine.

[LUCKMCFLY]

The same happens in business, because very often a person cannot correctly predict the demand for the product or service he offers on the market.

I really like this approach, because I have seen trading and casino including sports betting in some way, what I have discovered until recently is that if trading and gaming are seen as a business then things are better, why? because the mistake of many players is that if they do not make much money then they are not happy, and I think that is wrong, but if you manage to find ways to win even if it is little, then it is better because little by little you fill your bag, that for me is one of the most logical ways to make money little by little, of course from time to time you can make compound interest bets starting from 5 usd, and so see up to 3 or 4 times and that's it, but that is already a more reckless strategy, but if you see gaming as a business with small profits then it is good.

[Dewi Aries]

Most people view gambling as a bad thing, but that is not entirely true. Because people who gamble correctly aim for entertainment, of course they will not experience losses or other bad impacts. and with the many people who view gambling as bad because they have seen many people experience bad effects or the destruction of their lives after getting to know gambling, however with those who experience the destruction of their lives it is because of their wrong thoughts about gambling which leads them to do things that are beyond their control. the limits of his abilities.

It's true what you say, even though gambling has a bad view from most people, if we gamble without causing harm to other people then just do it, after all we do it using our own money so there's no problem, it's just that we have to have certain limits to not do excessive gambling, because with its extraordinary effects, I don't think anyone wants to experience it, only those who experience the bad effects of gambling because they lose control of themselves.

[LUCKMCFLY]

Bad experiences or situations is something that could teach us on how reality works and on how it would really be affecting us on which its up to someone or an individual on how they would really be accepting those things or would really be that adjusting on what are the things that they should gonna do. It is really just that there are individuals who cant really just that be able to sensibly be able to make out some good decisions despite of the bad conditions that they are experiencing into. Gambling isnt really that bad on which the only bad thing on here is into those people who do make out bad decisions towards their gambling activity
on which this really causes for their lives to get miserable just because of the wrong decisions that they had made.

It's a fact, we as players , but first as Humans we have the Potential to make our own decisions, if we make the wrong decisions Everything will fall apart and there's nothing we can do about it, things can go well or bad, and the game is like that , and in life it is like that too, because of our decisions we are where we are at this moment, because where we have made different Decisions who knows where or with what people we Would Share , so this is like that with games of Chance , it will Always be something that is like Scrodinger's cat, it is there but it is not there if a condition is met , I think all this is connected in our lives and for some reason we should live as we have Done , I think that can be a Great lesson.

My country prohibits gambling. But many gambling sites still exist. Prevention through socialization and blocking is not effective. Perhaps some disagree with this issue. But our country has ensured that gambling activities that occur in the community are more detrimental. There are many cases of people committing suicide because they have a lot of debt to gamble. Many house land assets were confiscated because borrowed money from banks could not be returned. This is why my country prohibits it, but this condition does come from everyone. They will have different thoughts, unqualified human resources also affect this problem. Many people don't want to work hard to earn money but they continue to gamble in hopes of making money.

Maybe the government needs to educates people so they will knows the risks of playing gambling. They don't have to playing gambling to make money because that will not guarantee them to gets the money. Many cases they already hear and knows and that must makes them stay away from gambling and not trying to playing gambling.

But even if your government prohibit gambling, people will still playing gambling because they see gambling can gives them a hope to make a big money. That's in their minds, especially when they see some people can wins the big money from the lottery games. They still attracts to try to buy many lottery tickets because they hopes that in some day, they can wins a big money so they will not stops from playing gambling to try to wins the games.

[Onyeeze]

All you listed I can say that is what is involved in gambling and also involve in any function or business you are you too so considering the fact of isolation of people when you are into gambling it is the same as someone who is involved in business so I know very well but anyone who involved itself in business most of isolate people for the attention of the business you get a positive result so from my own perspective and the understanding in gambling if you have a statistics to participate in gambling I think that you will not find yourself in any of the outline list so we have to follow gambling with a procedures and also protocols if you don't want to find yourself in any of these have time for any of the activities you are engaging yourself into

[DubemIfedigbo001]

In that you are right, so when I was a newbie and I played a lot of dice that feeling always appeared, so when I was playing and I lost I always thought about what I could buy and that filled me with rage at myself, of course that is a thing of the past, now I do things differently, not with the same intensity, now things have changed and are seen from another point of view, a more mature point of view, where my secret is in putting up the money to lose in a casino, I don't put up more than that money because that throws everything off, so I think that all those mistakes, feelings and things that I went through helped me a lot to mature my game.

Good for you, most people don't learn from their mistakes and they keep repeating the same mistakes again and again, especially in gambling. You will often see gamblers losing a lot of money in gambling, they may feel bad about it and curse the casino and themselves due to the heat of the moment, and they might even stay away from gambling for some days, but after a few days, you will see them gambling again, and if you ask, they will smile and say they couldn't help it.

Most times when the foundation of your gambling activities are not solid, you tend to loose yourself more and more, even after heavy financial loses. Its not that those dudes are not learning from their mistakes, its only that they are unable to control themselves from gambling. there is a stage your addiction would reach, gambling would be an inseparable part of you and you cannot feel good unless you gamble. At this point, that gambler needs help because left alone, they can do nothing at this point.

For me, I have also changed a lot. When I first started gambling long time ago, I had no control, I used to use strategies such as martingale because I used to think they work and you can recover your lost money or points by doubling your bet after each loss, it used to work sometimes, but pretty soon I realized that it is nothing more than a disaster strategy.

Strategy without gambling in moderation is futile, soon enough the person would understand that the most productive thing to do for yourself is having a gambling budget first, then with the budget you can go ahead to test all strategies available to you and still not get hurt provided you do not exceed your gambling budget.

[Linggajanitra]

Because gambling is a form of social disease and is also a crime. But even though some people see it as a safe right, they relatively consider it just mere entertainment. Gambling also actually has consequences when playing it. For example, gamblers lose a lot of money while gambling and try to steal or commit other crimes to make ends meet. Although gambling can also provide a sense of pleasure and pleasure for some players. Mental health problems, financial problems and perhaps other problems that can arise if you gamble. And it is important for the whole community to be aware of this risk.

Good point - education can assist gamblers comprehend their odds. Spread the notion that most people dont succeed. But remember, hope drives gamblers. Not just the money, but what it represents: independence, relief, or an opportunity to change things. Why people require that escape route must be addressed. Financial woes? Boredom? Thrill? We can better customise educational content to their experiences and emotions by understanding these causes.

A culture that emphasises long-term planning and intelligent risk management over rapid fixes can also shift perceptions. Also, some people can gamble moderately. You must know yourself, the risks, and make informed decisions. We should be strong about serious addiction but compassionate and supportive of individuals who use for fun.

Strategy without gambling in moderation is futile, soon enough the person would understand that the most productive thing to do for yourself is having a gambling budget first, then with the budget you can go ahead to test all strategies available to you and still not get hurt provided you do not exceed your gambling budget.

This means that there are limits that should not be crossed, because with the budget that has been provided, it must not exceed that.
Doing various strategies and choosing some games that are mastered.
Don't force yourself to gamble without any knowledge, even though it also depends on luck, but strategy and management are important.

Gambling will be very bad when there are no restrictions on the use of money, no management or even strategy.
Only playing directionless according to the feelings will plunge the gambler into addiction and big losses.

[AYOBA]

Gambling is not something that is too bad, but the reason so many of people's are always given an advice that we should know too venture in to it is that, it because of the high risks that his involved and not all people's know how to control their emotions and that's why is not good to allowed the gambling to be an addicted in to our bodies.

The gambling is all about having enough knowledge about it, because I can hard some people's o are given out a word that gambling didn't deserve any knowledge, which some are classified gambling that once a person have his own money it can handle a gambling. But for those that jumped into gambling without the his knowledge skills are the type of people's that easily fall victim of losing alot of money on gambling.

At this point, that gambler needs help because left alone, they can do nothing at this point.

That's right, and maybe the foundation that is meant is to apply firmness to several preventive measures that you have prepared, where this firmness can make you avoid various temptations that exist in gambling, such as seeing various tempting things, and at that time you will can identify that if you take action when you see something tempting then it is the same as directing yourself to danger.

One of the reasons why I say this is because sometimes even though someone has risk management such as control or self-control and limiting money and time spent on gambling, in the end it is not uncommon for some of them to still fall into various dangerous actions and I think it's clear that the reason is because there are so many things that look tempting in gambling. On the other hand, yes, helping gamblers not to fall into the trap is a good idea, but not all of us can know about a gambler who is in danger because he has the wrong approach.
