Gambling is considered not good because it is risky and the nature of humans is full of greed and ways to chase for money.
Gambling makes some people prone to losses and addiction because of this. So they against it because they want people to know how gambling is. I am not discussing about culture or religion but general. I mean where gambling is legal but parents against it.
If you win huge from gambling. It is money. They will surely celebrate your achievement while they will still advice you to stop gambling to use the money to do or invest in a good business.
Know that people and some parents may go against gambling, but that does not mean that they have not gambled before or still gambling secretly.
-
its only taboo to kids where parents keep it secret but when you get older, your parents openly talks about it with you and anyone one older. but its true though that you are not well liked when you lose money and get addicted to gambling. but when get are successful with gambling, everybody seem to be your friend regardless of how you got your wealth.
morality is just negotiable when it comes to wealth. you know the saying " behind every great fortune there is a crime" ;D

Yes, gambling is indeed perceived as an immoral activity by many race and even organizations and even religions. And this is so, not really because gambling itself is a sin, taboo or a crime but because majority of gamblers have a misconception and the wrong idea about gambling and this has resulted to gambling causing more harm than good to the economy at large. Very few gamblers really knows what gambling is all about and how to navigate around the gambling sector to avoid unnecessary losses, and this is why people are afraid of the negative impacts of gambling. But that doesn't mean that it's applicable to everyone, just as you've rightly said, and this is the very reason why gambling isn't completely ban in several countries, because even in the midst of those that allow gambling to harm them, there are still those who really understands gambling and are still profiting from it. So not everyone hates or despise gamblers and whether it's from gambling or another source, everyone celebrates a win because it's a good thing.
-
Because gambling is considered bad for some people because this will lead to negative impacts including in their social, how many cases occur because of gambling then many people will consider it bad in their eyes.
When they win a large amount of money, of course many people welcome and celebrate with their victory, but be sure there are those around you who are jealous of this and consider money bad, then it will be the perspective of others.
-
You won a large amount. If they benefit from the money you got they will surely celebrate with you. We keep a large circle we care.
The question of morality only arise when you as a result of your gambling spree end up homeless. They will not be happy as they care for you as well. I wouldn't be happy myself seeing a brother fall from grace. They will look at gambling as a sin from then on.

It's not a clear reversal, you think the family that celebrates the winning will let him continuous gambling with all his money?
Besides, the society won't change their views either, do you think someone who is against gambling will celebrate an unknown person who has won money? No, they won't! Most of the celebration you see is from the casinos and sportsbooks that will promote the huge winnings to get more people to gamble!

My country was colonized by a religious country back in the day but they also brought gambling here in my country aside from other foreign cultures influences. I just don't understand how it works because in the holy scriptures it was really not good to gamble. I personally do not celebrate winnings from gambling I just keep the money I got for future usage or as an emergency funds but unfortunately I only got few winnings and they're not that huge so yeah nothing to celebrate.

I think gambling is scary because of the inherent addiction is causes to many people and since it's a general problem exhibit by many people, that's why you see that some countries restrict their people from gambling or even ban it. If you check the amount of money some people spend in gambling in some countries, yoy will understand that gambling is a big business.
When you say wealth, how many people can you count around you that gamble and has made wealth from gambling, I bet yi will count 19 people with gambling addiction before you count 1 lucky wealthy person from gambling.

Is it? I mean I don't know somebody who experienced that way. I mean somebody who has been hated by his close relatives turned to him when he won a huge money in gambling.
Anyway, some sees gambling as a negative one because of the effects that it can bring to a person. The fact that gambling can be a disorder and it's very hard to cure compared to other addiction out there might be one of the reason why some countries see it as immoral. When people sees the negative side of gambling for most of the time, obviously they will view it as a negative one.

People frown not only at gamblers, but also at how they gamble. When a gambler is known for reckless gambling, those around him will undoubtedly criticize him. To me, this is normal. You would not expect people to applaud such a gambler.
However, when such a person wins big, people tend to celebrate him, not because they are pleased that he gambled recklessly, but because people are good at showing fake loyalty when a person becomes wealthy, whether by hook or crook.

Unfortunately, it often happens that a gambler wants to win a huge prize and it is very difficult for him, he spends a lot of money, does not sleep at night. But when he really wins a lot of money, he understands that he has not become happier. After all, for an inveterate gambler, the very anticipation of the game is often the most important thing. That is why families often get divorced because of prizes. They do not make them happier.
-
If the probability of winning-to-losing in gambling was 50% or less, most gambling services would stop or reduce the advertising associated with them, but the probability may be 30% or less, meaning that you have a 30% chance of making a profit or much less than that, which means that out of every 100 times you gamble, you will go your home sad 70 times or more.

For the rich family I think money won't buy happiness and large wins from casino will likely make their quarel worse.
For poor family, the large win from gambling I think the money will make them happy that for several months to a year they won't be thinking gambling is bad.

Most people care less about the source of your wealth, they just want to know that you are successful. To some others, when you are successful, whatever means and methods you used to find your way to the top are justified. There are a few individuals, however, that have strong principles and will never accept the money from gamblers if they know they do not support gambling or those people gambling.
-
You know the saying that the people will be around you when your already successful but were never really present when you were still struggling? It's not verbatim but something like that. I think similar mentality also applies to gamblers who get lucky big time. The difference though is that it's more understandable why most people are against your gambling habit. We all know that only a small percentage actually ends up in profit.

Well it’s not just in gambling but everywhere in our society.
There’s a popular saying in my country/community that relates well with this topic - it goes “wetin good nah everybody own but wetin bad nah only the owner get am” what it means is that when someone becomes successful he becomes everyone favorite but if unsuccessful he belongs to just the family and loved by just the family members.
As soon as one hits good reward in gambling or anything isn’t right - the idea of “wrong” gets erased from the mind of everyone and they’ll want to celebrate and even get involved in that thing so that they can also get same reward.

Why is gambling considered taboo and immoral in some cultures and countries,
because gambling is extremely risky and can make you lose more than what you have a lot of people have fell victims to gambling and had a hard time crawling their way out and they know how detrimental gambling can be to someone
yet when someone wins a large prize, his success is often celebrated and his wealth is welcomed by friends, family, and society—the same people who were against him in the beginning ;)
what are the chances that one wins a large prize anyway? of course anyone will be happy if you win but the reason why it is so frowned upon is because of the dangers it poses to the financial and even mental aspect of an individual
i am personally not against gambling but we should not ignore that it is indeed risky and has the potential to ruin an individual's life if taken out of control

Yes I can understand very deeply what you are saying and that is what happens when someone has a lot of money, even someone who was initially indifferent when we have a lot of money will consider us as their brother. Yes that is life.
Relating this to gambling, indeed some countries and cultures are against this. But that is also their right, because they have their own views on gambling. Also when they come when someone gets a big win, they will forget everything because they prefer to enjoy it.

Everyone congratulates him when he succeeds but when someone is failure he has nothing but advice. There are many people who do not like gambling or encourage anyone to do gambling but advise only on its negative aspects but when a gambler gets a big win from gambling they all praise him. I think people who do something like this are opportunists. No benefit can come from them. Though not everyone will be successful. Those who stick to it and whose fortune favors them will succeed in the hereafter. If gambling is not considered a source of income then there is no possibility of loss from gambling.

There are people we don't expect to act this way but its surprising sometimes to find out even the ones closer to us are actually opportunist as you say.
Money draws people to come closer. Either out of desperation or they are really happy to see the person they know for once in their life is richer as some point.

In my opinion the easiest way we see the gambling the way of gambling wasn't that easy.
And here not everyone get's the larger prize or something they win continuously. Here most of the people face loss in large amount and those who win those percentages are very low. And here those peoples amount is also in a large amount get in to in debt after doing gambling addiction. So may be that's the reason for many cultures or countries have avoid the gambling or don't like the gambling.
-
I think the time when gambling is viewed as taboo or immoral in some countries is gradually fading away because some of those countries whose citizens condemned gambling in the past are beginning to gamble due to how they have seen people winning from gambling. They don't see it as a taboo or immoral again, but as a way to make easy money; that's why many end up addicted to gambling because those who are meant to lecture them on the dangers of gambling are guilty of the habit of gambling every week to make money out from gambling. Winning from gambling then becomes what should be celebrated as a normal thing

Freeloaders in the answer, of course when you win big everyone will want to have some kind of money or at least cover some cost for them. And so they totally forgot in the beginning that it is taboo in your religion.
Admit it or not, individuals are after your money, and so this is problematic for the gamblers like if the person wins the lottery, if you don't give some to your friends and relatives, they will turn their backs against you. As harsh as it sounds, that is the case and that's how I see it.

Well, that's the sad reality. In real life, when you are poor no one would respect you while if you are rich, almost all of the people around you and even those who don't know you seems to respect you not because of your personality but because of your money.

It's not about the risk why it is taboo from religion, it's the connotation that gambling per se is bad and it is considered as a sin that's why it is being frown upon by many religion around the world.
But when people win a large prize, that notion will be forgotten and the winner will justify that it is not bad and not a sin to win money from gambling. And then your status in the society changes as now you can have money and in turn you can help your continue or even your church. How ironic it is!!!

I believe that what is good or bad depends on the jurisdiction, and as long as people perceive gambling as legal, it is not bad. What is bad is bad no matter how you paint it, but gambling is not defined as bad by everyone, including religious figures. In fact, whether gambling is good or bad depends on the gambler's attitude toward gambling.
If gamblers gamble responsibly and avoid problem and addictive gambling, the world will not perceive gambling negatively. Most of the negative connotations associated with gambling are not a reflection of gambling itself, but rather of the harms suffered by gamblers as a result of their participation in gambling.
-
Winning large prizes from gambling can affect the views on morality they lecture you about the risks of gambling so that you won't do it but when someone wins big, it can make those warnings seem less relevant or even hypocritical. People might start to focus more on the potential rewards rather than the risks, thinking that they, too, could be lucky. This shift in perspective can make gambling appear more appealing and less morally questionable, especially when the success stories overshadow the many losses that others experience.

People can compromise their belief for money I have seen this happen so many times, people will make a big shift on how they treat you when it comes to money, so its better when you won a big amount of money to not flaunt it, don't brag about it or else you will be targeted by people who wants to have a share of your winnings.
And this is the same people who will easily leave you if they see that you don't haver anymore, so many people easily change because of the glitters of money.
-
The greatest vision of people will always be to win, in morality everyone has a very hypocritical sense of what it means for another person to win, very few of us are sincere when we encourage someone to win, I like to see people happy, I am actually happy because I know that there are people who when they win the game they use it for things that they need very intensely, so personally I will always say that whoever wins deserves it, so here the values ??of each person are what stand out the most.

Money is power, and as the popular saying goes, "power corrupts..." To identify a morally upright person, give him money and then observe his behavior. As you mentioned, people change once they have money. At that point, friends become enemies or fail to meet their expectations, so they attempt to distinguish themselves from close friends. In other cases, they seek to exert dominance because they were fortunate enough to win big and become wealthy.
To me, when money is used in this manner, it does not last forever. The saying goes, "Easy come, easy go." That is why, when a person wins big, it is recommended that he invest rather than try to show class. Showing class will only encourage such a gambler to live a lavish lifestyle and gamble even more to sustain it. This may not last long for such a gambler, as he may not be as lucky again.

OP: No, but yes... :)
Actually, what is the point here you Topic in relation to the betting board, we cannot fall into gray areas of discussion on the subject that concerns us, betting (gambling).
In any case, it is your point of view, and perhaps you measure yourself by your environment, one has to have convictions regardless of the interest or the brilliance at convenience.
In recent days (another thread off topic on betting topicboard) a person admitted that he was ashamed that his pastor found out that he was betting, something really "childish", as in this case, that being an interested person prevails over your principles, is there a gray area or not, if you are like that you are a slacker who takes advantage of people, clearly.
Fortunately my close and social environment accepts me as I am and the interest in helping others is not accompanied by monetary interest.

People don't care about how you got the money and all they care is whether you have or not so that make sense people celebrate when someone made money that's gonna change the individual life.
You may need to understand almost every religion prohibits gambling but the actual reason is people can get rogue and get into bad shape but now we're evolved a lot so we no need to confuse it with religion and know what we're doing.

To get a tip? Or something they want in return? Well, that's how money change someone's behaviour, they are all with you when you have money and everything especially to someone who have bad experience when there's not enough money on them. But won't give a budge or care when you have nothing.

Well what happens here is that when people have money , many things change, which I don't think so, but personally I am a person that money should never change who they are , there are many who are friends just for that, and when there is no more money, that's when you see who is with you, that's how it happens, but in these things it always happens the same, and in any part of the world it is recognized, sometimes money changes, and that is something that should Never happen.

I support your submission. It is impossible to predict the behaviour of someone until they make money. When some people make money, they believe that it is the appropriate time to avoid friends and try to secure their lives by making it difficult for others to access them. In some cases, a person may be unable to predict how he will behave if given the opportunity to earn money.
In my opinion, a friend who becomes wealthy should not neglect others, particularly those who were present with him before he became wealthy. Instead, he should try to elevate others rather than separating himself from his friends.
-
It's sad, but many people, when they get rich, stop communicating with their friends. Even those they knew very well.
And I will not justify them, I will say that they are full-fledged traitors to friendship. You cannot change your social circle because of a change in your economic status. This is wrong and mean. Therefore, in casinos and betting, you must not let money ruin your friendship.

People forget morals and ethics when they see money especially people who will easily take your place if given the chance. I think the world.has transition from the way they view gambling as bad thing. Morally, they may not like it because of the addiction and how some people are lost in it but they have accept it that is way of living.
I know of a guy that his life has changed in the span of 5 years to a billionaire with multiple business and all happened because he won a game that change his life forever and he has been in gambling as full job with his business going and manage by others. The way people queue to beg him for money be like a person with politics.

People worship money. It is unfortunate that the world is such that people worship those who have money, regardless of how they obtained it. The only reason people criticize gamblers is the fear of addiction, as you have mentioned. This is because addiction affects not only the gambler but also those around them.
Regardless, when a gambler finally wins, people stop criticizing him and instead begin begging him for games because they, too, want to win. At this point, no one is concerned about the gambler becoming addicted, but rather wants to associate with him in order to benefit from his winnings.

when they have something to gain, they can forget just about anything about the gambler who won despite that guy goes home drunk and hit his wife every time. when he won a large amount enough to change their lives, people around feels like they can take their share.
people forget morals and they don't even realize they are turning greedy. but the gambler also will not mind their morals throw out the windows as long as they serve him.

Yes you are right, there are some people like that, not rich but when they can win a large amount. Usually they are always together, but when they have money from winning, they will leave and will come back after the money is gone. That is an unhealthy friendship.

It's sad, but many people, when they get rich, stop communicating with their friends. Even those they knew very well.
And I will not justify them, I will say that they are full-fledged traitors to friendship. You cannot change your social circle because of a change in your economic status. This is wrong and mean. Therefore, in casinos and betting, you must not let money ruin your friendship.
Yes you are right, there are some people like that, not rich but when they can win a large amount. Usually they are always together, but when they have money from winning, they will leave and will come back after the money is gone. That is an unhealthy friendship.

I have heard about such relationships many times, and it is not friendship, it is parasitism. And I heard about it from interviews with problem gamblers. When they had big wins, their "friends" often returned to them. These gamblers became the center of attention, and all because they paid, and other people took advantage of this.

This I think has happened most of the time anywhere in the world considering these kind of "friends" just wanted to be part of that winnings and they are there mostly for the benefits. Though it is not an issue for me because I know that was just natural especially here in my place but that won't happened to me anymore because I am an introvert and no one would know if I won in gambling and that was just a natural form of barrier to those kind of people around us.

That's completely true. I think it's very common for individuals to have that urge of going closer to people who already achieved success or even those who are successful in gambling, and some of these people have ulterior motives, and honestly, I've also observed that this is mostly common in gambling.
I think by being an introvert and by always keeping certain things to yourself you'll be able to protect yourself from those people who are only coming close to you simply because of what they stand to achieve from you or people that are only in your life simply to benefit from your success.

It's really cool to hear that you don't need other people's support because they want to benefit from you. That's what independence looks like. But in most cases, gamblers need other people's approval, even if that approval only comes from those who like to receive gifts. That's why they say friendship is priceless.

That happens to many people in the world, they do not Stop doing things because they do not have the support of their friends, or the approval, obviously when there is money involved many are your friends, as I have said before, true friends are only met in bad times, because in good times Everyone can even be your brothers and it is simple , as long as they maintain a benefit made by us, they will always be there, very few are loyal, and being loyal for some is so difficult that thanks to that many relationships and friendships are Damaged.

I think people forbid gambling in their culture because of the way gambling has done to people in those places. It make people to backslide or can't make people to progress in life. And I also believe that no culture just forbid gambling like that but they have tried it before and discovered that it didn't favour them. It made the community backwards. So the best way do to forbid it so that the next generation will not part take in it. And it region people that forbid gambling the more.

That's why only a true friend can say: "Listen, you spend money like an idiot, stop gambling and come to your senses. You need to work on yourself and not believe in miracles and borrow from everyone." And all those who like free gifts will never be able to say that. They will smile and nod, thinking "well, this guy is a fool."

I hope I will never be in an unhealthy environment like that and for now I am still in a place where the friendship is really well established. Even though I also gamble and my friends also gamble, we still know the limits so that our friendship is not destroyed because of trivial things.
It is true that there are many out there, even in some cases they no longer ask each other because of things like this. It is very unfortunate.

Agree with your thought. But the thing is that as long as people are interested in getting rich quick, I think they will continue to gamble. Quitting gambling won't be easy. Gambling has been banned since its inception any many countries, but no one has been able to ban it till date. From the young generation to the elderly people take part in gambling. And nowadays gambling is declared as an industry so many people are working on gambling platform as their career. So if any government or anyone wants to ban gambling at this time it will never be possible. But everyone must understand that gambling is not an income platform, just should be taken as entertainment.

Everything you say is very true, that Happens just like When a friend has very good luck and then is at the top and forgets who he is, I don't know, but I've Always seen that in some people Money is something that changes a lot, for that reason we are people who must improve a lot, and sometimes as friends we get tired of telling things to Others , and when those friends Fall or are bad is When they come back to us again, that has happened to me, sometimes some people , players do not learn.

Why is gambling considered taboo and immoral in some cultures and countries, yet when someone wins a large prize, his success is often celebrated and his wealth is welcomed by friends, family, and society—the same people who were against him in the beginning ;)
Well, I'm not generalizing, but that's the reality...
the so reality is that the society would want to see is what you become out of gambling, whether rich or poor. If you are rich from gambling, you will be celebrated, but when poor, you will be castigated and talked down on because you allowed gambling to get held off you, turning you into an addicted gambler which society doesn't support, and doesn't want their relationship to end up becoming any time they see them

Because in public everyone condemns gambling. And if someone's relative wins, then his relatives will see a money bag in it and they will immediately call him and say that they always thought about him. Trying to get gifts from this lucky guy.
