Gambling can save lifes due to the word inflation

[Samlucky O]

Op the story you narrated is very far from the topic. I must say your explanation looks somehow fabricated to me, or a cook up story. And secondly I don't see how what you did for the man relates to "gambling can save lifes to the word inflation" gambling can not be used as a hedge over inflation. Gambling is for fun and not something that can generate income on daily basis to be classified as live saving. If gambling was that easy to make money in this time of inflation, I think the casino would have shutdown due to regular wining. If what you said Is true that you gave the man money to stake and he won, I just see it as he was lucky the second time, because had it been he lost several times after giving him money I don't think you will have seen it as a life saving business.

Gambling is not done for profit and that is what you should have let the old man understand by not giving him any money like you claim so that he can learn a hard lesson and will never think of using gamble to double his money again.

From what the story says, it shows that you have just triggered another poor man into gambling and he might continue gambling for profit even if he is losing because he will believe that he can win the next game.

OP, you should get a suitable topic for your story.

so he begs the contractor to give him some money for transportation. When the contactor gave him some money, he then had to take a walk to see the nearest casino so that he could use the money and stake a bet to buy something for his family to feed on. After he staked the money, he ended up losing the game. That is why he is crying in regret. 

So does it mean if he was paid his money in full that's how he would have gone to gamble it all? Because that's exactly what I feel would have happened, judging from the entire scenario that surround this story, as it's obvious this man is slightly an addicted to gambler, because inasmuch as gambling is a game of luck, it's not what he ought he would have gone into with the last money he had to feed himself and family that day after work, because in cases like this, gambling is meant to be a back-up plan and not the main plan, so that if our expectation doesn't go as planned, he works with the original plan.

So on the contrary, I wish to thank O.P for helping a fellow gambler in need, but however, it's high time people stop making such expensive mistakes.

Gambling isn't a sustainable source of income on long term, therefore it can't proportionate a reliable source of money for this man to feed his family. Maybe his wage isn't enough to pay for all his needs, although gambling won't be the solution for his problems, anyway. As I see, you are trying to extinguish fire with more fire, as besides not having money to pay for food, this man is also going to waste all his money directly to the casino's pockets.

He should be looking for another alternatives to solve the problem he is facing. Gambling isn't one of them, rather gambling is a hobby activity for people who are in a fine financial condition, so they can give themselves the right to spend some money gambling. And in my opinion, you didn't do well by donating him money for gambling purposes, as you are encouraging a disfunctional behavior from his side. You should encourage him to save money to buy food.

This man is clearly not educated on gambling matters, as he has the wrong assumption it can generate income to feed his family.

[shivansps]

What I want to know is: Did I do a good job by using gambling to save him? Or do I just make him have an interest in gambling as a source of income?

First of all, it is worth noting that in his place, he should not have gone to the casino in the first place, if he had very little money and it was his last. He understood perfectly well that he could easily lose this money. Why cry later if it was clear from the start? Regarding your action, I will say that you know better whether you did well or not. If you gave money with the purpose of helping a person, then good. If you gave money with the purpose of luring a person into gambling, then bad. I think you did well.

An interesting story, but it cannot be normalized, maybe at that time he was lucky to win his gambling when you gave him a second chance to gamble, but what if he lost the second time, would you give him money again, of course it is difficult not to give money again if that happens? in the old man could not go home because he did not have money, which he should have used to go home but used in gambling then lost, but luckily he won so he could buy food for his family.

Yes, I'm worried about that person having a bad mindset, motivated by getting money at gambling quickly, so he will be attracted continuously, even though he is old and mature, when he gets a salary the next day he wants to multiply his money back at gambling, and that's not a good thing in my opinion, you need to pay attention to that person so that he has good money management and does not rashly use his money when he has money.

I was in pain today because of the incident that I saw in a physical casino shop. Although I am not a fan of going to physical casinos, I prefer playing my bet in an online casino, but today I wish to go to the physical casino so that I can see other gamblers and maybe get experience, but I end up sad. 
 
In the casino, I saw an elderly man crying in regret. I was concerned to know what the cause of his tears was, so I woke up to him to ask, and then the man narrated what happened. The man told me that he works in a construction site from morning just to get something to feed his family, because they haven’t seen food since yesterday morning, so after work from morning to night, the contractor tells them that they will all be paid tomorrow, so he begs the contractor to give him some money for transportation. When the contactor gave him some money, he then had to take a walk to see the nearest casino so that he could use the money and stake a bet to buy something for his family to feed on. After he staked the money, he ended up losing the game. That is why he is crying in regret. 
 
So I ask him, does he actually gamble? He said not at all; he just came to try his luck and find something to feed his family. Then I asked him, Can he still remember the mistake that he made when he staked his first money? Then he said he saw no mistake. All that is involved in gambling is luck. I said okay, I will give him money to try betting, because I also don’t have the money that will be enough to feed his family, so he staked another bet. To my surprise, he won the game and got the money he needed.

Sorry, but you yourself know that this your story is nothing but fake, a cock and bull story if you allow me use that.
In this time and age, a grown up man will not enter a casino to gamble with money he is supposed to use to buy food for his family, specially when he is some one that have never gambled before, it's only addicted gamblers that do take such risk.

To actually set the record straight, in general, what you did for the man is not bad at all, atleast, you gave him another opportunity to try to recover his lost money, and luckily, he did recover the money, but this kind gesture would have been really nice if only it was a true life, not a cooked one, for like I said before, this is nothing but a cooked story.

Well, weather you did a good job or not and if you are saying the truth, what matters now is that the man was lucky this time and was able to go home with something which was actually what he needed. So, I'll say it's good you helped him.

The first experience he got was a lesson for him not to use gambling as reliable source to make money. I am not judging him because I know that some people are facing a lot of difficulty in their life and the situation can make them take some crazy decisions but no matter what the situation is, I always advice people to think twice before they go ahead with any decision, so that they can peacefully handle what ever result they get.

Some Post seem like the "Machiavellian" result of the OP's plan and his followers in the reply, let's leave the 'chaff' of these threads, in fact, it's like a template that repeats itself over and over.

Here I am being part of the 'party', helping gambling board spam.

OP, if you have dignity for that man you helped or screwed, I really don't understand your idea very well, put a lock ​​your topic.

I read your post, and honestly I think its a bunch of bullshit.  

I just wanted to ask, what is the meaning of the title of this topic? And what does it have to do with the rest of your post?

There are two facets of the resulting actions in this story, he's got his need satisfied somehow after your intervention, it would have been better you advice him never to take such risk again and hopefully he heeds to the advice but then except he's got discipline enough, the fact that gambling which he doesn't frequent saved him that day, the chances are really high he would want to keep trying out chances with it again even after now. I wouldn't blame you if he decides to pick up such habit, you only did what you could and he's expected to be wiser after all that which has happened to him much earlier.

Don't see it like you have introduced and encouraged him to be gambling because he got saved off gambling that day, after that point, it becomes his sole discretion to choose if its something he would want to continue with since he knows too well already that it luck dependent.

That is true, at the end of the day, it is his own prerogative whether to gamble again or not. You should advise him of the possible repercussions if he will venture again the luck in gambling. As you can't control of his actions, what you can do is just give him a piece of advice. Afterwards, it is his own will if he will explore his opportunities in gambling.

OP, there is a disconnect between your post title and the actual content in OP. Gambling is not a tool to fight inflation, Bitcoin is. Inflation is always happening in a national or global station and not just for a sub-community that can be offset via gambling. As for the question you left in OP, I don't think you did anything wrong per se. The man in question is old enough to know his right from his left and knows for a fact that gambling, if not managed properly, can rekt an individual. At the same time, it can be a blessing. It depends.

Take your flowers for being the realest on this thread and the first to detect this BS!!!

What nonsense did I just read, @OP???

You are just lucky that there is no "demerit" option, because the lies and insincerity in the post are too obvious.

The funny thing is that the entire post does not agree with the caption and has little to nothing to do with gambling. I have seen boring topics but this should be the worst I have seen so far How does a story between him and his friend qualify as a gambling post or helping a man who wasted his salary out of reckless gambling is something worthy of discussion here. I think @stalker22 put it the right way and that is what it is. I'm just imagining how someone can sit down and compose such a lengthy post with no meaning!

[IvugeoEvolutionCoin]

Wanting to analyze your question directly actually you could have made him interested in the business by giving him the money. Suppose you gave him money and he placed a bet on gambling and won but that is not the end because it made him greedy for gambling. Later he would save money and place a gambling bet and lose. Gambling is proven to be a game of luck so it doesn't always win. If you want lend him the money and ask him to repay it in daily wages. We don't all have the same financial position so we shouldn't call anyone to gamble.

It is better for us to stay away from lending money to anyone for gambling or getting interested in gambling. Because I have seen some of my friends who borrowed money and paid it back in the first instance but lost all money after some time when they lost gambling.   He could not pay back the borrowed money when he left so we should refrain from lending money to anyone for gambling.

Unfortunately there's no way to know what the money will be used.

They can give 100x reasons to you and beg your money for good thing, they can also faked the evidence to show if they're genuine, but in the end you're not live with them for 24/7, so you can't completely know the reality.

This is quite similar like in Bitcoin Discussion board where they praise Bitcoin can help the poor, it sounds like Bitcoin is like a magic money which can be claimed freely, while the reality you need to have money to own it.

It's good that it has a good ending, but I recommend that you don't do that again. The guy is a construction worker who barely makes enough money for his family's needs. You should discourage him from gambling with the money intended for the family.

If you barely make money for your family, you should prioritize the basic needs of the family and not take chances in gambling. You may have saved the man, but that may have encouraged him to bet and hope that he wins so he can have income. You should educate him that he should gamble with excess money.

[Saint-loup]

This is an interesting and uncommon story, but when a man has reached the point of not only gambling money he can't afford to lose, but also money he needs to feed his children, you can say he's in a very dangerous addiction, and he needs help, not more money. Have you checked if he actually used the money he won from you to buy some food for his family at least or if he just spent it to continue to gamble ? Gambling is like alcohol or drug for some people, worst or riskiest situations won't prevent them to continue to gamble.

The money he gambled and lost at first and the money the OP gave to him to gamble later weren't supposedly enough to feed their children. That's why the OP asks if gambling "can save lifes" I think, because his children wouldn't eat either, even if he didn't gamble.

But I agree with many members who said before that 1) the topic has nothing to do with inflation (unless you imagine a things that aren't said, like the reason why the man wasn't paid enough was because of the rise of prices or whatever) and 2) the story is quite unbelievable. But hey! I wasn't there so I cannot tell whether it is true or false for sure, so I'm giving him a vote of confidence.

[Outhue]

These are hard times.

It is not recommendable to gamble in hard times because you will probably do the wrong things easily unless you are a old gambler, people tend to get more  desperate in hard times, and its not their fault, if hardship of your current situation is why you decide to start gambling its dangerous.

I will never advice anyone to go into gambling when the situation of the country is very bad, its better to find a better source of income than to rely on something that will fuel your desperation to do anything for money if you don't end up winning.

For me personally, you have done something that is beneficial for that person. If a situation like that happens to that person, you cannot be said to be 'interested' or lead that person into gambling, you save that person through the money you give so that he is lucky and gets some money, so he can buy food for his family.

Just imagine if you didn't come, the money he had was gone in the first gambling, so you came and brought him good luck, for me you did something good for that person, even though it was through gambling.
