Is gambling bad to the society?

[junder]

people who gamble with a get-rich-quick scheme are wrong and a problem that will make them addicted. gambling that exists in my opinion is not bad, because when gambling is done on the basis of entertainment where there are reasonable limits in doing it then there will be no problems such as financial or health ruin. but unfortunately many people gamble on the basis of a get-rich-quick scheme or doubling their money and this is the problem that is in themselves not from the government or casino that acts as the host.

As far as I know, the government in several countries has appealed to its citizens not to gamble for security and economic reasons. In some countries gambling is legal but with certain limits and is only allowed in certain places that have a license and have strict minimum age requirements. Casinos are the hosts of gambling. They know they will profit from those who lose and spend a lot of money in their place. Casinos are businesses, not charities so don't expect them to give you easy wins, unless you have good luck. But Casinos never force people to gamble. As far as I know in some countries gambling advertisements are also strictly monitored so that those who gamble are people with their own choices.

I think if you choose to continue gambling then that is your choice and you are ready with many risks. Likewise, if you choose to stop gambling then that is your choice. And it is good for you to focus on other things such as your career and relationship life.

for countries that allow gambling, of course they set some rules such as age limits that must be adults to be allowed to gamble and vice versa for those who are not yet adults, they are not allowed, but I think this age limit is only set in land-based casinos, for online casinos I don't think there is an age limit set. besides that, casinos do not force other people to do it, addiction and the bad impacts that occur are caused by actions that are chosen and carried out on their own.

of course I'd rather reduce my gambling activities, because I do want to be successful in my career but I never thought I could be successful through gambling, it sounds impossible to me.
gambling is a risky thing and even though there are countries that legalize gambling, they do set strict rules like on the page I found here.

On the other hand I think it is clear and everyone should already know that gambling is a risky activity where experiencing problems in financial situations is the first impact that will be felt by someone while we are living beings who will always have needs in order to survive, meaning of course having problems in finances can be very stressful for someone which will ultimately affect their mental and psychological, and it has been proven that it is not uncommon for some gamblers to end up with stress and even worse is suicide. So the point is don't get involved in an activity that you don't understand, think rationally to know and realize that gambling is not a get rich quick scheme I think can keep you safe in the long run.

That is why I always advise against gambling to those who have any serious problems in life. Both economic problems and problems with the internal state or personal life. You need to come to gambling in a good mood and with extra money that the gambler can afford. Only then will the experience of playing in an online casino or betting be successful and enjoyable.

Yes, because it will certainly be very dangerous, and of course it is a fact that in the end what happens is that they will actually experience a much worse situation. And I also see that it is not uncommon for some gamblers who are now experiencing addiction problems where from the beginning they came because of the intention and hope to improve their financial situation, especially for those who have a middle to lower financial situation but are involved in gambling.
I am not saying that gambling is only for rich people but try to re-evaluate what you are really looking for in gambling, understand how the concept of gambling produces victory, as I said before, namely by making an assessment using a rational mindset so that you can correct the misunderstandings in your mind.

Overall, yes, gambling can indeed be used as a place to relieve stress and boredom when you don't have any activities to do, but never think that gambling can be used as a place to solve financial problems.

Many online can be deceived by uploading someone else's passport or driver's license for verification. The casino will not strictly check this point. And this is logical, because they only need our money, they do not care who sits in front of the monitor. And many cryptocurrency casinos do not require KYC at all and it turns out that through cryptocurrency, sending and receiving money for a deposit occurs completely anonymously. And at the same time, a minor can do this.

One can find a rigged game in gambling. The house always wins; this is not a joke; it is a reality. From the time you enter, the odds are set against you. You are following a dream; they are counting your money

It's arithmetic rather than luck here. The math also indicates you will lose. Desperate, hoping for a quick remedy fuels gambling. When your life seems out of hand, you develop a false sense of control. But actual control comes from wise decisions rather than waste of money

Every wager marks a step back. Wake awake to find the manipulation. Only hard lessons; no simple money exists. Stop the cycle. Change your life, not your Losse

We only become disappointed when we think that we can make more money. The house wins more than us (gamblers). It is too sad, but it is true, and that is the fact that most gamblers hardly accept. This is the fact that we can't argue or twist it because even if we gamble for many years, we surely lose more than the amount and time we win. It only means that, as gamblers, we are destined to lose our money while these casinos are going to be rich.

I believe we should understand how this thing works rather than assume that it would help us improve our lives and gain financial capability because this certainly is not going to happen.

Yes, there is a kind of competition between the casinos which is why they don't pay much attention to KYC issues. Their main goal is how to extort money from gamblers. If one is strict about KYC then they will be left behind in this competition as other sites allow gamblers to gamble without KYC. Gamblers also have a disadvantage here, especially if a gambler wins big and may have trouble cashing out his winnings. KYC doesn't necessary to the gamblers but their weak policy leaves minors with a greater opportunity for gambling.

There are gambling sites which will enforce KYC, they have separate sections telling about responsible gambling and they are considered good reputed sites too. Although no gambling site will take responsibility for how much you lose, but it is up to the gambler to come prepared before doing gambling.

Gambling provides entertainment to people and also it gives an opportunity for the people to earn money or to win jackpots and change their fortune but it comes with a price (risk of losing money). You eliminate the bad aspects of gambling and can still enjoy the time doing bets/gamble.

what you said certainly applies to online casinos and I agree with that. apart from uploading someone else's passport or driver's license for verification, I also occasionally hear jokes from friends who like to gamble by saying using someone else's identity to borrow money with the aim of gambling again, in my opinion using someone else's identity for your own wishes is not justified, even if the other person knows and agrees to it but I think it's better not to do it.

and it is true that children who are still minors can do things like this, because in my opinion they are already familiar with cellphones or gadgets that currently many minors are smart in using their cellphones or gadgets.
using someone else's identity without their knowledge is clearly a crime in my opinion, but when they use someone else's account number to gamble and of course it is known by the account owner, whether it is a crime or not, because the account owner also knows and agrees to his account being used for gambling, this happens in my friendship cycle who like to gamble.

everything really depends on the gambler himself, even if the site provides requirements such as KYC or others but if the gambler himself cannot control himself then what can happen is that they continue to gamble without any reasonable limits, and in my opinion there is no site that will be responsible for the losses that have occurred to the gambler because in my opinion it is beyond their responsibility. they only provide a site to play and the rest of the control in the future is up to the player or gambler himself.

that is the main purpose of gambling, gambling is indeed a suggestion of entertainment where there is a side of profit that can be obtained if you are lucky, but many gamblers misunderstand where they think that they can get profit for sure and this is a problem that often occurs. we must be able to think and realize that there is a clear risk that will definitely happen because that is a provision that has been set by the casino where their goal is to seek profit from the number of players and for players most likely they will only experience losing money.

Gamblers face the greatest danger when they think they will make money by gambling and from here they will make a lot of money. We know that few people have won big from gambling till date, but most people have lost their money. It is true, however, that people who have been gambling for many years have lost more bets than they have won. Yes, if we dream of getting rich by gambling, we can definitely see that there is a loss of money, so we should not have such a dream from gambling. 
Of course we have to be more strict about how gambling works instead of understanding that no one can pay more than that. If we want to improve our lives, we must work hard otherwise we will be nothing but wasting time gambling and losing money by placing bets here and there maybe the future.
