Is There No Good Side Of Gambling?

[GeorgeJohn]

There is none if you get hook to it, winning big amounts will keep you coming back chasing that win again and that is when you know you are addicted to it, be safe only gamble what you can afford to lose.

Actually winning in gambling attracts staking more...what makes people be addicted in gambling is expectation, when you budget ahead of what you will do with cash or funds, that will trigger you to gamble above your budget..

Chasing losses also contribute immensely to be addicted in gambling,..It's obvious that chase of loses is be done as results of remorse, regret and recovering of what you have lost in gambling...

Secondly, if you partake on gambling to make a profit, and also not have a budget or limit for gambling, that will trigger you to get addicted and also chase after your loses..

Especially chasing after loss is the major issue why most gamblers are getting addicted, because they already have the mindset to that they will win or recover their loss and this often attracts or pushed them into staking more than they have been staking before, with the hope that they will win, and gambling doesn't work that way. So no matter how bad people want money, they shouldn't have the mentality that chasing after their losses in gambling is the best option for them, as it will not affect them positively.

Sometimes ago I was in dear need of money up around $120 in my local currency, and for that time I only have around $37 iny possession, only two options are open and left for me, 1: is to ask for a loan from my bank to cover up my $120 expenses
2: is to gamble with the money not the entire money at least $20 out of my available funds that time, I took that risk and in the end I was lucky to win a bet of multiple tickets that accumulated around 10 odds in total and that winning cover up for all my financial needs at that time. So gambling is helpful and good to me in that regards, gambling is doesn't have any bad side  for me but we need to do everything within a set limits that draw back from over doing things that can lead to loaes for us.

You know I can relate to what you said, because I also went through that same feeling when I was thinking about where I could find money to pay for our electricity bill, which was over $90, and I only had a little money on hand. Then this crypto gambling came to my mind, and I thought about trying to gamble while I was thinking about a way to borrow money to pay for electricity.

Then I deposited only $15, and while I was playing, looking at my laptop at the online casino, maybe after 5 minutes of playing, I saw that my balance in the games was running low and my bet was on autoplay. Then, when I only had $1 left, I noticed that I was winning games one after another with amounts equal to less than 40 to 60 seconds, one after another, until I won $123. So my problem was that I lost $90 and I still had $33 in change. So, I can't say that gambling gives only negative or bad results in my opinion.

In the end you were left with $33 profits?
I don't seems to get you mate, and also you must be leaving in a country where electricity is very expensive, because spending more than $90 on electricity for personal use is to much in my country, you can use that amount for a whole qauter like 3 months bill, so for sure you used gambling to top up the amount and I am glad you experienced the good positive side of Gambling this time.

Whether the gambling industry is generating so much revenue or not, it doesn't mean that whatever percent of revenue that gambling generate is not beneficial to so many people in the society, of course people are benefiting from it directly or indirectly. Those people that gamble and luckily make profits are direct beneficiaries because they also have fun.

The effect of gambling revenue won't be that noticeable by those who are just patronizing the casino; those who are receiving tax and using it for development are the ones who might be able to see where revenue generated through gambling is going. Another thing is that most of the gambling companies that provide service to a particular country sometimes are offshore, which means they might be sending most of the reward away.

The reason is that you visited those threads which were made by people who have already lost a lot of their money. They share their stories here to make others aware of not doing the same thing. In that context, everyone shares their own experiences too, and that scares you. Gambling is nothing but loss, but when you ask about their profits here on the forum, you will see how much they earn and how happy they are from it.

Conclusion on any thing is done based on the angle we find ourselves, those that are favoured in the process says good about it why those that lost on the process will comment based on what they get from it. You are right about the opinions of people on this threads as they will say based on there experiences on gambling.  The general Conclusion about gambling will come in two different ways which could be of both the advantages and disadvantages sides, as for the advantages side of it. Gambling can only be profitable to anyone that is not controlled by greed and quest for riches because greed can make one take risks that are not calculated  but it is profit generating as it is a quick and fast life transforming scheme.  As for the disadvantages of it, gambling can stand as a source of downfall to those that are only interested in profit without looking at other things associated to gambling

Gambling has both good and bad sides, just like many other things in our lives. When people face problems related to gambling, it often reflects their irresponsible attitude toward finances or their unstable mental health. Both of these are broader social issues, but they are not necessarily the fault of gambling itself. Besides the frightening stories that many people associate with gambling, I would still like to point out its positive side. When we play, we distract ourselves, relieve stress, and experience stronger emotions. In general, it adds more color to our lives. Yes, it involves money, but we pay for almost everything in life and for many kinds of services.

Yeah, just like other activities we pay for to enjoy, such as food, sports, and other things from which we can get taste and enjoyment, we can also pay for gambling to engage ourselves in it and relieve stress. However, it comes down to how you can look at and manage it. If you view it as entertainment but have no control or cannot manage your funds properly, you will incur losses. Remember, the more you lose, the more you will regret it later. So, if you want maximum entertainment, do it with specific funds and boundaries, so when you go home, you don't regret the money you lost.

Good side for gambling would be in this case its a large part of what founded Bitcoin and other alt coins, especially in the hard years after a giant sell off.  Gambling is a type of industry that subsidies whatever or wherever it operates and its part of why governments often end up desiring a cut of such a reliable revenue stream.

It is definitely true that the gambling industry can benefit even a small number of people, and that will definitely fall under their beneficial sides. However, if we look at the larger picture, the gambling industry currently occupies a huge market and of course, a large number of people have also been placed in jobs here.
Even many people think that online gambling does not require many employees, but if we look at the big casinos, they have 100+ employees working there and at the same time, people are also beneficial in terms of a huge marketing. Just give an example of our forum's signature campaigns.

... Are there no good effects of gambling on people? Gambling can't just be all bad all the time. Well if you think it's all bad, why are you still gambling?

Almost, nothing, the enjoyment it offers is like very temporary, its not always like that, because soon you try again after winning you might lost and much larger than you won earlier. Good thing only for them is the tax they provide to the government which helps its people, well, if not corrupted by their very government. So yeah, only casino owners and the government benefits the most.

[LUCKMCFLY]

who don't see it as a Job or where they must become rich, they gamble with small amounts and are never addicted. The matter is that responsible gamblers don't blow their trumpet that they are gamblers, if not a lot of people will not be judgemental about gambling.

The key to being responsible, intelligent, and never falling into addiction is to bet with small amounts; there's no other way. It's more manageable, you can still enjoy it, and I think it instills a necessary discipline in every player. A player who has the discipline to say "no more" is capable of doing anything. It's not easy, but it's not that difficult either. In the end, what matters is preserving your money, and that can be a great advantage for the player.

You are very correct on this one…the gambling companies are really benefiting from us in many ways and their not even care about the little penny you win because everyday they are people to loss game i think that how the gambling industry believes…just as you said many large numbers of players keep playing and keeping losing this only is what their benefits millions of dollars from every day they believe that people are programmed not to win everyday so it what really works out for their and they are very right…having a gambling business is one of the best choices of investment you could have…to

Many people feels that gambling is totally bad, due to the fact that they have lost big Amount of money, peace of mind and love ones, this has made many people think that gambling doesn't have any good side at all, one good side for me is entertainment, some people doesn't gamble because they want to be rich, but because they just want to enjoy themselves, just like people who watch football or play games that is how many also gamble for entertainment.
Gambling can teach someone to be discipline and risk management, if you know how to control yourself,  you can learn how to manage money and to avoid chasing losses and make careful decisions before you gamble, gambling is not bad, you can only enjoy the good side of gambling if you see gambling as entertainment and gamble wisely that's only when you can enjoy gambling.

Pure and simple recreational activity is the best way of keeping the psychological cheque gives one pleasure through speculative activity. We can be sure to decrease the psychological weight of possible losses when we spend money with the sole aim of having fun. Introducing stringent capital management in fact enables us to be careful with making critical decisions. Through establishing quantifiable boundaries, we would be enjoying the fruit of education without losing the cordial relations with people who are nearest to us.

Well, I think any enjoyment doesn’t last forever and that’s why people look for different things to help them enjoy the life. On the other hand, gamblers who are lucky enough to win the jackpot get a second chance to change their lives, so that’s one of the good sides gambling can offer. Many new or old gamblers aim for that jackpot, but not everyone can get it, even if they try their entire lives. I believe gambling still has a good side, just like other activities that people often think only bring negative things.

Betting/wagering small quantities at a time is what is supposed to be done by regular bettors who have a limited gaming budget. But there is a simple fact about risking small amounts of money, and that is one will never get any significant amount of profit off those small wagers/bets.
Then greed's kicks in and we feel tempted to increase the size of our budget and the size of our bets/wager, just in case we can increase our profits in the next good luck streak. There is  when all money goes down the drain and regret starts.

Being responsible at gambling is the equivalent of being a good loser in sports, and understand the risks from the very beginning. Or at least that is the way I see it.

Yeah it’s a reliable revenue stream only for the house or the casino owners but not for the gamblers itself. It kinda appears the actual good sides of gambling may only be observed or experienced by the house because they’re the only ones in the industry that are sure of going back home every single day with an actual profit, sometimes more, and sometimes, but the most important thing is that they always go back home at the end of the day with something.

The good side of gambling is, in reality, as well as it is the side of the coin. Gambling can be a formidable and dependable source of revenue to the casinos, operators and even governments. It provides employment, taxes, and gives whole entertainment sectors. But to the common gambler, such benefits are much less definite since the system is fashioned with an advantage of the house, which will make the casino win in the long run. With that said, the positive aspect of gambling may also exist provided that it is viewed merely as entertainment and is done sparingly. When individuals tend to put boundaries and regulate their emotions, it reminds them of spending money on any other form of leisure instead of a sure method of earning income.

Probably, those who rarely engage in gambling, think that there is no particular harm from gambling, and there is no particular benefit. They only occasionally hear these sad stories about those who have lost a lot, but they don't really go into this topic.
But those who are actively involved in gambling know perfectly well that this is a very contrasting activity, because if a gambler constantly loses, he will say that gambling has no good sides.

But if such a person wins a big prize once, he will praise gambling in front of everyone and will say what a good guy he is.

There will be no harm in gambling except the loses you are going to make when gmyiu gamble. If you don't want to lose any money from gambling, you must be ready to take away your mind from gambling. Once you have made up your mind to gamble, you should be ready to take the risk that is involved in gambling. If you like gambling a lot, you can become addicted to gambling which can lead to loses without any expectations.
