Gambling has ruined more lives than it has elevated in my country. Whenever I visit betting shops I hear different stories of how people use their school fees to gamble, how people borrow money and use their phones as collateral, how people steal just to gamble, and how students miss classes just to play virtual games in a betting shop. I think the negative stories outweigh the positive stories I have heard. So, the majority of the youths are yet to benefit from gambling.

If gambling had a regular stream of income then the unemployed youth of any country would be involved in gambling instead of looking for jobs. My unemployed young men and women of Bangladesh are currently engaging themselves in such gambling instead of looking for jobs. Since there is no direct support for gambling in my country, young people are investing in various gambling sites online.
As far as I know gambling and drug addiction are enough to destroy a young generation. So no matter how much gambling is preferred as a source of income to an unemployed youth, it will not benefit the unemployed youth.

What do you mean provide "daily" needs? I doubt that any gamblers can claim that they provide food in the table for their family because of the money that they have won. Yes, perhaps you can have like a legendary winning spree, a week or two.

But sooner or later it will caught up with you, and you might lose more than you have won. That is a fact and so I disagree with you about the benefits of gambling especially in the youth.

Gambling, help, daily needs? Is this a joke? The only way gambling can help to provide daily needs is if you would get a job in gambling industry. I dont know how gambling can help youth in general, expect making them socialize more (another topic of discussion between each other). If this is a question about money, then gambling cant help. Risk can not be called as help. Entertainment, where money are involved doubtfully can be called as help also.

It is certainly better if some youth spend their time gambling than when they are resorting to various types of crime due to lack of employment. Moreover, many people are now making their living from gambling. But not everyone can do it by winning regularly. Here some youngsters can make good predictions about gambling so their chances of winning are slightly higher. But I would never consider a source of income through gambling. Because it can never provide guaranteed income. Those who have money problems can lose more. But those who manage their gambling through wins and losses will enjoy their gambling whether they win or not. If a person gambles within his control then it will never cause any harm to him.

Are you sure what you provide are facts, it's hard to make a living in gambling more so on the youth, gambling cannot be considered a cash cow if the youth becomes addicted to it and suffers a lot fo losses he will turn to crime just to sustain their addiction.

Gambling is not for the youth because they are prone to recklessness, in our country youth are not allowed to gamble because it will corrupt their mind, and establishments that allow youth to gamble will face closure.

TBH, as I read your post OP, I can't think of a reason as to how gambling can be a help to the youth. I can't think of any reason how gambling can provide for their daily needs. I can't think of any reason how gambling is helping them.

I mean we know that gambling can bring more negative things than positive to us right? How are they earning? With the help of the gamblers? Or they are gamblers themselves who are always winning (which is impossible). Take note that they're also unemployed meaning they don't have any source of income at all. Can you please share more details as to how this is happening? How do youth in your country earn daily?

Give some information or we will just take this as a joke thread.

In a way, you can be right as gambling is still a good, lucrative business if you are on the side of the operators and the government getting taxes out of them (assuming that the form of gambling can be legal, approved, regulated by the government and not illegit operations) and as a business gambling can be hiring people to be part of the operation and with the energy and eagerness of many youth people they can be employed in there and can even be making good money. However, unlike other form of business, gambling is not an ordinary one as it has a social cost involved. What about the many youths who can be addicted to gambling and what about the people who are ensnared by the addicted habit. So these issues must be balanced by the govenrment...it should not just think of the money and the employment opportunities but must also limit the costs to the society...except of course if the government does not care at all then let all forms of gambling operate and flourish.

Gambling is usually played for fun. You should not take up gambling as a profession. Gambling is high risk and there is no guarantee that you will win or lose. So get job or work to get rid of unemployment. No one takes gambling as a profession in our country, but very few people take gambling as a profession.

I don't know how possibilities with your opinion about gambling? actually gambling is not profession and not promising profit why recommended with gambling to be passive income way. Most of gambler just take fun with gambling and never have ideas to earn much money trough gambling, you can't blame how many people get loss their financial after becoming gambling habit and most of gambler account full deposit fund but few only make withdrawing.
Don't make some one see with your bad opinion about gambling, can't guarantee quick rich with gambling and most people take have fun only with gambling not as for profession.

There is no doubt that gambling is sustaining people within the country I don't think this is limited to Nigeria rather to some other African countries because of the rate which most of them are lacking employment opportunity especially Nigeria. The government has turned back their hands over their youths and you see lots of people engaging themselves in manner's of things that doesn't warrants them to do such silly acts or Ungodly attitudes, even as that gambling has been existing for long and was there helping people but was that recognized and noticeable unlike today's world.

Gambling will never be some sort of a positive help for youth in a specific country instead it help them on the negative side of it. I don't think luck will help them rise from poverty as we all know that luck is one in a million therefore there is no guarantee that we are having it right after we bought our tickets from lottery or any other form of gambling.

I disagree with you on this one, gambling has ruined more lives than helping people. Gambling is not a way to make earns in the society today. I know of a friend who used his school feed to gamble, and at the end of the day he lost, and it caused his trauma which affected his results that semester.
Gambling is based on luck, gamble for fun and gamble wisely...

betting has been of a help to Nigerian youth based on the high rate of unemployment because it has helped them to provide their daily needs, and it has help to mitigate crime rate in the country, research has help us to know,

Can you provide some links to the research and make sure it's not sponsored by a betting website?

Betting is a closed thing, you can't make more money out of it than there are put in bets, no casino, no gambling website can run unless the payouts are smaller than the money people deposit, so how would this redistribution of a lower payment help anyone?
You have 100 people betting $100 and getting back on average $95, how can you claim it provides daily needs?

There is no doubt that gambling is sustaining people within the country

Why are you so sure?
Just because you keep seeing people gambling is not that they make a better life with it than without it!
Again, it's impossible for gambles to make more money than they bet, otherwise, the bookies will not have money to pay the bets!

How, how does that work?

Really Dude?!!! who plays gambling for help ? Gambling for only entertainment not in others case. Gambling can only entertain us for a while I don't think it will help us financially unemployed people or anyone should take it as a profession that can be earned from here. All the unemployed persons I have seen around me are addicted to gambling or they want to earn from gambling without doing anything else, they are always in debt. And because they cannot fulfill it, they often have to hide from the lender.
If I talk about my country, online gambling is taking a terrible shape for our youth, the number of underaged people is increasing day by day. And young people who are on this street like you are talking about gambling are always burdened with depression and debt. My classmate committed suicide because of this.

Gambling is totally illegal in my country. Gambling has never been officially accepted in this country. Gambling is not officialized in my country because whenever gambling is officialized in this country all unemployed young men and women will participate in gambling and they will hurt themselves more. Gambling is a very serious addiction and those who indulged in it have been unable to control themselves and have completely destroyed their lives. Whenever youth take this gambling as a way to earn money they will destroy their lives instead of making money. Those who think that making money from gambling can change their life and eliminate unemployment, I think they are completely wrong. Gambling can never change people's lives no matter how positive people say about gambling I never believe it.

That's a very risky situation you have there mate but if if works then fine. Here in our country, the government has tried its best to lure the youth out of gambling since this will only increase the crime rate, the same as drugs. This kind of situation varies for every countries i think.

You might see as something that is wrong but believe me lots of people has been depending on gambling since there is low employment rate and much population so, they all look for alternatives to secure their lives instead of waiting for the government who doesn't turned eyes for their people or her citizens. But I really thank God for the kind of nature we have over here people always try to fits in whenever there seems to be no other alternatives.

"If this is a question about money, then gambling cant help. Risk can not be called as help. Entertainment, where money are involved doubtfully can be called as help also.
Actually;by my own  opinion any business you do have a risk attraction rate, as there's a risk attached to gambling so there is also a risk attached to the entertainment industry,so whatever you do in life has a measure of risk involving in it. So whatever that help in taking care of people's need there is risk involved in it.

It's such a shame and a failure on the side of the Nigerian government that they've allowed the unemployment rate in the country compel the youths and even women to look at Gambling as an escape route from their dilemma. We all know that gambling isn't supposed to be considered as a way to make money but as a recreational event just to have fun, but then again you wouldn't really blame them because if the government did their duties, then there's no way most of the youths would consider gambling as a source of income.

If Betting has provided goodness to the young generation in Nigeria then continue this activity because goodness comes from wherever it comes.
Maybe it's like saying that if there is a diamond in a pool that costs 1 million dollars, but the pool contains goat dung which is very smelly, then I will take it because after I get the diamond, I can take a clean shower by going to the salon.

In the country I live in, betting is too risky to develop because it has so many negative effects and the government has tried to suppress the birth of gambling and gamblers.
As different countries have different rules, hopefully in Nigeria the presence of gambling can make the existing economy even better for the younger generation like you talked about.

There are some gamblers who envision gambling as their source of income. When they lose gambling, they try to reinvest. In this way they keep losing for win and at some point reach the high peak of addiction. If gambling is conceived as a temporary pleasure then the issue of income cannot have any effect. If those who are youngster are not addicted then they will refrain from other addictive and crime related activities even if they cannot make a big change through gambling. Due to gambling, those young stars can benefit to some extent.

Why do something that will put you in trouble. If it was crypto that is even illegal, I will say trying to boycott the normal way is survival but gambling that is a game of chance doesn't worth the risk unless you are that expert that win 70% on average everytime you try to gamble but it you do lose, why going through that stress to make money that might choke you on the neck.

Gambling has helped a lot of youth because gambling is legal in my country but the more gambling has help the youth, it has also destroyed the youth as some of them has taken their life due to reckless gambling, some of them has lost their means of living because of the way they gamble. I think there is more harm in gambling than making the profits from gambling.

I am convinced that one of the most significant things that we can do to assist young people is to offer more possibilities for learning and career development. This might include educational institutions that teach individuals the knowledge and abilities they need to get successful jobs. On the other hand, it could include increasing availability to higher knowledge so that more individuals can obtain the education they require for achievement. And, of sure, we need to establish more job possibilities or businesses for young people so that they're provided with alternatives to gambling. So, while gambling is unsafe it is not the only alternative available.

I don't see how gambling helps youth by providing daily needs, gambling has ruined the lives of many who tried to make gambling their main income source. In my country the only people who can earn from gambling are the gambling brokers, and all the gamblers are living a bad life after gambling and losing a lot. As you say if someone gambles like this with gambling as a main source of income then it will be a very dangerous decision for them in the long run. Because in my country I have seen how bad the fate of such gamblers is. So in my country I found gambling ruined their lives instead of changing them. Many have even tried to commit suicide due to debt burden.

It could be for the wrong reasons but yes some gamblers specifically the poor and middle-income earners play gambling for help and with the hope of becoming rich or improving their income. What makes us believe that gambling is for entertainment? Of all the adverts I have come across by bookmakers, none of these adverts painted gambling as a source of entertainment. Their emphasis is always on winning. This is why none have ever advertised and then revealed a player who lost. This has worked on the minds of viewers who then believe that by gambling you can also win and make money as revealed in the advert.

I understand that the quest for making money which is propelled by the unprecedented hardship in most countries has rushed many even the underaged as you have noted to gamble. This is not common in your country, it is the reality in my country also. Everyone wants to make money and to them, gambling seems like a short cut but sadly, gambling has created more problems than it solves.

OP you as a Nigerian can as well give us here some guaranteed Predictions let's check this out on how you and your fellow Nigerians has been able to make countless winning than your loss in the Gambling or does it mean the Nigerian youths are eligible or they merits winning in gambling on whatever way they makes their predictions?

I do not understand how this is possible or did your government talked to the casino sites never to have any Nigerian youths get cut off from their stakes?

The last time I checked, most Nigerians I know who gambles and has won hugely amount of money from their stakes confessing to say despites their big wins they're still loosing more of their funds to the gamble by having more lost counts than their winning counts.
Or are you trying to say the probability of luck in gambling is eliminated for the sake of favouring the youths of Nigeria?

Hello poster, do not be deceived of spreading false rumours because at the moment the Nigerian youths are being wrecked due to their eagerness of gambling to win instead the are loosing more and crumbling on running bankrupts.

Hmm, well this is strange for me because I believe am currently staying in Nigeria too and if you ask me , I think the case with gambling in the country is really of the latter because;
1. There is no job or employment to patch up with their gambling habits
2. The rate of young persons involving in the act is wey more than average which to some extent is not good
3. On a general scale, gambling doesn't guarantee any daily income

I don't know where you gather this data but from all the observation on people gambling with intent of making profits out of it shows that it always goes the other way round.

Are you classifying the youth's involvement in gambling to be most beneficial to them for that reason? In reality of this, how many youths have gambling made millionaires through their platforms? If you can point out about a thousand of them, I will agree with your words that gambling is a help to the Nigerian youths and other youths of other countries at large.

If I am not mistaken, Nigerian youths are not the only ones who engage in gambling the most, other country's youths are as well partaking in gambling. Why haven't we heard of the news of gambling helping their youths? Why must it be only Nigerian youths?

The fact remains that gambling never help the youths of any country rather it pushes them astray in their finances because they are gambling with wrong mindset of becoming rich through gambling.

As I know, there are few countries where gambling is officially promoted as a solution to economic issues faced by the youth, due to the inherent risks associated with gambling addiction and financial instability.
But it’s crucial to note that while gambling can provide temporary financial relief for some individuals, it’s not a sustainable economic strategy for the youth or for national economies in the long term.
Sustainable economic development, job creation, and education are fundamental to addressing the economic challenges faced by the youth in any country.

Can you provide some links to the research and make sure it's not sponsored by a betting website?
First of all that is the question I asked, "has gambling be of a help to the Nigerian youth"?it was not sponsored by a gambling company, and if it was sponsored by a gambling company,how will I say,"though I have a negative perspective concerning betting".

"Risk can not be called as help.
there is risk involved in every job or business you do, so what will you call it? As say you said " Risk cannot be called as help."

Are you classifying the youth's involvement in gambling to be most beneficial to them for that reason? In reality of this, how many youths have gambling made millionaires through their platforms? If you can point out about a thousand of them, I will agree with your words that gambling is a help to the Nigerian youths and other youths of other countries at large.

If I am not mistaken, Nigerian youths are not the only ones who engage in gambling the most, other country's youths are as well partaking in gambling. Why haven't we heard of the news of gambling helping their youths? Why must it be only Nigerian youths?

The fact remains that gambling never help the youths of any country rather it pushes them astray in their finances because they are gambling with the wrong mindset of becoming rich through gambling.

In addition, the fact that there is current debate in the House of Reps that betting should be banned is a clear indication that gambling has done more harm than good to our youths. A personal survey of the activity in a betting shop reveals that everyday majority of the youths who gamble, often leave the betting shop angrily. In the same vein, if you take a colossal look at the testimonies about gambling, you will notice that 90% of the testimonies you hear are negative.

I think that there should be a call on the youths to embrace responsible gambling practices because this is the only way some of the problems associated with gambling and gambling-related crimes can be controlled.

"Gambling is based on luck, gamble for fun and gamble wisely...
For me if I'm a gambler I don't think I will gamble for fun alone, I will gamble majorly for the money and partly for fun , because I cannot be gambling for fun while others are making money out of gambling,so for that reason I will be gambling for both fun and money.

hello, what is on your mind, gambling has never helped the younger generation to develop, it has destroyed their future, in my country gambling is so illegal that many gambling sites have been closed by our ministry,
But different countries have different customs, so I think it's fine if your country has its own pride if it relies on gambling

For me it has negative effects on the youth rather than the economy itself because here in my country youth are not that capable enough financially and therefore gambling isn't an option for them. Online casino nowadays are rampant here in my country and I know know this young generations might caught the attention on this.

Base on the current unemployment in Nigeria the youth have taken gambling as part of a business or a work that can provide  for their need, though I have a negative perspective concerning betting but betting has been of a help to Nigerian youth based on the high rate of unemployment because it has helped them to provide their daily needs, and it has help to mitigate crime rate in the country, research has help us to know, that betting company have helped Nigerian youth to a enlarge extend. To me in my country gambling as helped the youth.
Since I grew up to know what gambling is all about, I've few youths that have been able to positively change their financial lives because of the win they got in gambling but I've also seen more youths whose lives have been ruined by gambling and that's why I can't say that gambling helped the youths of the country. In my own opinion, I think gambling have done more harm to the youths of this country than good and that's because the negative effects of gambling is greater than the positive effects on the teaming population of the youths. To the responsible youths that are into gambling, gambling have actually been a helpful to them but to most youths, it's gambling have been their worst nightmare

As I know, there are few countries where gambling is officially promoted as a solution to economic issues faced by the youth, due to the inherent risks associated with gambling addiction and financial instability.
But it’s crucial to note that while gambling can provide temporary financial relief for some individuals, it’s not a sustainable economic strategy for the youth or for national economies in the long term.
Sustainable economic development, job creation, and education are fundamental to addressing the economic challenges faced by the youth in any country.
Directly gambling can never help youngsters. Because there is no specific income system. Moreover, not all young people will win in gambling. Rather, it may happen that some young people lose money after betting money. This will create a money crunch among them and at some point they will try to place more bets to recover that money. They may resort to worse methods to arrange money. So how can we consider that gambling is or is contributing to youth development? But if many people instead of being addicted to gambling turn to terrorist activities, gambling can greatly reduce that type of crime.

Here, as I see it, we can viewed gambling from two distinct perspectives: as a lucrative industry that contributes significantly to the economy through taxes and event sponsorships, including those aimed at the youth, and as a form of entertainment. However, it is not prudent to regard it as a viable solution for young people to improve their financial circumstances. While it can be a fun diversion, it's not a substitute for more sustainable financial planning and work.

I don't understand the idea that a country's unemployment problem will be eliminated through gambling, but there are thousands of other ways to eliminate unemployment, except for gambling. Moreover, a large part of a country is the youth community and from them surely a country expects a lot of good things. If the youth community of a country is like gamblingIf curses are involved then the future of that country is bleak and in no way do I believe that economic solvency will be brought about by gambling. Rather, if the government can use the manpower of the youth community well, then only the unemployment problem of a country will be eliminated as well as economic solvency will be created in that country.

First use quotes correctly as you're adding one extra!

Second, you did not ask a question you made a statement:
Quote
betting has been of a help to Nigerian youth based on the high rate of unemployment because it has helped them to provide their daily needs

You doubled down on that and you mentioned it as a proven fact, that's why I asked you with what statistics, research, or other paper can you back your claims, as without proof those are just claims. The part about sponsorship was about the research you would come up with, I wouldn't trust a research on health backed by a tobacco company, I woundn't trust a research on electric cars backed by Tesla and I wouldn't trust a research about gambling that was paid by a casino!

So again, what proof do you have for your OP statement?
