Title: Gambling growing!
Post by: laijsica on August 22, 2024, 04:49:33 PM
Despite the uncertainty of winning in gambling games, large numbers of gamblers are involved and this number continues to grow. Some of the reasons I tried to find out are:

1. A gambler may be motivated to gamble by the prospect of earning more money in a short period of time.

2. Many gamblers consider gambling as a form of entertainment and choose time after their daily work.

3. Many wealthy gamblers take up gambling as a profession and their aim is to win the largest number of gambles regardless of the loss.

Can be discussed in more detail.

Anytime you see growth in gambling, the first thing I check is if indeed the season has resumed, like right now we are just 1 week in the beginning of the season and many bettors and sport punters will be back to stake on their favorite games because of one thing and that is money, I believe gamblers are for money than the entertainment aspect.

Though, there are some gamblers that just love doing their thing, they love to put one or two risk on gambling and have their time but the most of the gamblers I know are the money Malik entitled once.

1. Here in my place we treat it like that more than just an entertainment and I think almost all of us here do that. I don't also think gamblers here in my place just want entertainment when playing scatter because they are spending much money on it as they are chasing something good. In my case I play lottery because I am hoping for something like the jackpot or any life cahnging winnings but so far I am not that lucky.

2. I think majority will choose gambling as a form of some sort of generating extra income rather than making it as an entertainment.

3. Wealthy people sometimes are not contented they wanted more or it was just a pride to get the best out of the winnings as we all know they are trying to beat others by records or they are just getting boring so yeah it was their first choice of pastime.

I will agree with you on point one because that is the main reason why the number of gamblers are increasing every time to time because the lazy ones sees it as a short cut to riches in a little period of time. This will make them continue gambling and losing more money to gambling because any amount that they have, they will always think of doubling it. Gambling is a means of entertainment and that is how we should see it and not a means of bringing us out of poverty.

Don't have a wrong idea on why you want to be a gambler, if it is that possible and easily achieved that everyone gambling earns from it, then there wouldn't have been any gambling platform in operation by now, we have to understand the reason behind why gambling is meant for an entertainment purpose mostly, then the way we see gambling growing each day from one stage to another is because many are finding it more attractive to them because of the nature of how it is been played.

1. A gambler may be motivated to gamble by the prospect of earning more money in a short period of time.
I cannot tell the situation in other countries, but in Nigeria, based on how the economy has been in the last couple of months, I have personally seen people who formally never used to gamble now showing interest in gambling as a means to make money in a short period of time. It is becoming increasingly difficult to advise people not to gamble for money because gambling for money has been the primary motivation for many people that I know who are new in gambling. This is a brewing problem.

Gambling to make riches out of it is the most common reason why the increased rate of gambling in society never ceases to stop because most gamblers see gambling as a short way to riches. It keeps getting worse as league matches are in play.

I don't think this is ever gonna stop soon because betting companies keep giving enticing odds for bettors to pursue profits out of their bets, making many forget about taking gambling as a means to entertain themselves but a means of making fast and easy money.

FYI, Gambling is not a new concept it has been with us for atleast 1000 years so people always got their reasons to gamble and the most common reason is we want to make quick money or we are happy about making in that way which is okay unless this becomes regular habit we got off from what we're supposed to do in our life.

And the other two reasons also contributes but in my opinion what I said is most likely but people will deny it.

Gambling is growing because it is easily accessible anywhere, especially online gambling is becoming a lot of people's favorite because of the easier experience for them to play.

There are many factors why many gamblers continue to increase including the above that the OP mentioned.

Want to get rich faster in gambling.
For fun on the weekends playing gambling.
They are addicted to the more severe so more and more gamblers are playing.
And there are many more, but I will not make gambling a profession or a source of income.

must be because of the app that we can easily download online. to which even kids today will have access to platforms. advertisements on TV should be limited to certain time of the day.

anything that's too much is becoming a problem in society. gambling is growing too much that even the teens in school are also fond of it that sometimes they were discussing it on the hallway of school talking about their bets. there is a long thread about this in the other forum, quite alarming that it becomes the school issue already.

Besides the point you have made, I will add that gambling is inherent with us; we love to take risks to get rewards that satisfy our achievements, we love to be rewarded and this is the result of the chemical called dopamine, Once we experience the challenge and how he get resolved, we become hooked on that thing and gambling is one of these challenge, which is why we easily get hooked on gambling.

It's also the increased visibility and online presence that made it grow further. Gambling companies have been more aggressive in their marketing efforts for the past 10 years at least. It's only now that you can see some push back from the Government. You can take the Premier league for example when there was a call to ban on sponsorships from these companies.

Another huge reason for the proliferation of gambling in our time is its accessibility as everything is now online. We now have gambling apps made by gambling operators and there is no need to login to a website anymore and the transfer of money can be done globally with the help of cryptocurrency...and there are now millions of people who have access to buy crypto anytime they want to. Here in my country, even teenagers are getting addicted to gambling as there is actually no real strict screening done by gambling operators as they are more focused on making money, forgetting the social responsibility of things. In the past, there is that stigma the society  is attaching to gambling most especially those who got addicted as they can easily be seen in and out of gambling parlors but these days one can do his gambling vice without anyone knowing and in the privacy of someone's room. That is why gambling is one of the best ways to get rich...that is if you are the operator.

The obvious reason for this growth is the number of new online casinos and their superb offers, e.g., deposit bonus plus the internet availability, which is mostly available already in any part of the world.

Usually a person has to work hard to earn money. But a gambler can own a large amount of money in a short period of time without any effort. Due to which the tendency of gambling among the gamblers is gradually increasing. Not everyone can own a lot of money but everyone starts thinking of this possibility as an opportunity.

Yes there are many who do gambling for a little entertainment along with their work. They want to temporarily forget everything from their busy lives and enjoy gambling.

 A section of gamblers take up gambling as a profession. But it won't be the same for everyone. Because gambling is risky
 Platform where either victory or defeat can happen. Big gamblers naturally have alternative means of payment.

another reason is through community

through our friends we often use betting and gambling as a form of game and challenge with our friends our competitive spirit gets heated and we all want to win sometimes it doesn't even matter what is on the line we just want to win against our friends

it can be absolutely about anything too we have grown up learning how to bet and hope that we win either for prizes or our pride

Yeah, not even community, it might go down to your family as well. If you grow up on a family that loves to gamble and so you will be influence to gamble yourself. Although at the current time, it's very hard not to be influence by gambling because there is online gambling already and it's prevalent in this generation.

I know people before who says a lot of negative things on me, know them personally, that I go and gamble in traditional base casinos. But looking at them rightn now, lol, I just give a good laugh at they are gambling online every day.

The gambling industry growing up because of the sudden wins of the real gamblers at the time of their needs. And when other people who are not yet gamblers saw it, they would be motivated to join and win like the person. And also the believe that they can win big one day to settle their debt, and start life again.

It is for the gambling hunger, you know. It’s always going to be the part of people who gamble a lot that would be feeding their inner desire in which they want to reach the highest probability and have the jackpot that they think they want. It’s always going to be like that in a gamblers mind.

Can be discussed in more detail.
While I agree with what you said, there's a 4th reason why the number of gamblers are rising every single day. It's only one word.
PSYCHOLOGY.

Gambling owners are playing with you through psychology. Psychology of colors. Psychology of sounds. I can't explain it bit by bit, but the point is, gambling owners are using the colors and sounds to attract the gamblers to play even more. Light colors, sounds that are considered live are what they are using to hook up gamblers because these things increases the chances of the gambler playing and staying to play for a longer period of time.

In addition, most people are motivated by the fact that someone won millions. This can actually trigger interest in gambling. In some neighborhoods when a gambler have a big win the ticket is pasted on a board for others to see and with this even none gamblers often get the gist about the winning and this have propelled a lot of persons into gambling

The kind of advert run by bookies also accounts for growth in the gambling industry. The advert always motivate people to gamble. When people are made to believe that it is possible to become wealthy overnight through gambling then you see poor people going into gambling believing that they can be lucky and turn wealthy overnight. .

It is simply growing just because there are tons of gamblers who do willing on burning up their money on playing on it. Yes, we are really that thriving or looking for entertainment
but those kind of intents would really be that totally be changed up on the time that you would really be playing on longer periods and this what makes gamblers
do become impulsive and as we can see that number of casinos are growing on which this one simply shows that theres really indeed a demand into this.

Truly, when a gambler spends longer time gambling, he starts developing a habit gradually that soonest it will be difficult for him to live without trying to gamble. This is so because we are what we do constantly. As a gambler, check the time you utilize for gambling. This is very important. The amount you spend gambling also speaks volumes of how much a gambler also spend in gamble.

Most of the times, the time spent and the amount spent on gambling is a function of what the gambler hopes to achieve in gambling. It is possible to become rich overnight but there is no guarantee that you can become rich overnight through gambling and so it is more profitable for a gambler to spend lesser time gambling because that will save money for him.

Someone will start to be curious about gambling after they see friends or anyone gambling, especially if someone they see at the same time manages to get a big win.

besides that, there are also many gambling advertisements that we can almost always see when opening social media or something related to the internet. The more advertisements they see, the more curious they will be and eventually try gambling.

yup i do know that for some families it is almost a tradition as a kid when your family members gather they tend to play gambling games like mahjong and other card games which is something that you grow up with and eventually you are the one playing with them already

The most important factor in the growth of gambling is access to it.
Millions had no real access to gambling in 2000 of example, there was simply no way to put a bet on something in most small towns other than buying lottery tickets, and here I'm talking about eastern and even part of Central Europe, not godforsaken places, not even mentioning villages where you didn't have a super store let alone a gambling shop.
Smartphones and internet access changed that.

The second one, despite myths and tin foil hats, is that disposable income grows almost everywhere, people had money, and millions that were penniless now can afford the throw away a few bucks here and there.

Those are the deciding factors, in the end is all about the $, you can't have an increase in revenues in an industry if your players don't have increasing $ available to spend.

I recently learned a shocking thing about gambling. It turns out that if a player loses a lot, he is awarded VIA status. He is congratulated on his birthday, taken to the airport and given gifts and promo codes. It's as if the casino wants to become a friend. And this is terrible, because this is an attempt to completely erase the line between the player's mistrust of such organizations as a casino.

It's better to have the slimest of hope than to be completely hopeless. The main reason why gambling is growing is as a result of poverty. Most gamblers today are poor and are desperately in search of a stable source of income.

So most of them opt for gambling with the hope that a time will come when they will win big

Whenever one is trapped in a particular problem it becomes so desirable to search for an exit that will be slightly more comfortable. But to be stuck with something uncertain is not what we would have wished for in the first place. Instead of worrying about what might not come in, we can look at what could go out, or some ways in which skills and potentials could be developed to a better end result. Most people also wish to grow, having the skills regardless of if it looks initially like a small and unassuming plant. This way, accomplishing multiple goals where everyone can benefit from and conscious efforts are made collectively to contribute to creating stability for ourselves and our community.

This is a form of promotion that they do and they must study it to the smallest detail to keep them getting loyal customers even with a very large number of losses.

I also just found out that the bookies will give status to those who lose a lot with the status of users who have a lot of money. Yes, that can happen because they must see the deposit history of their players and that will be material for them to get profit.

Gamblers are classified in different categories,according to your explanation,some people gamble for the pleasure(fun).while some take it as an occupation,and those person's that took it as an occupation i think gambling favour's them more,why some person's just gamble for fun.

Everyone knows that a lot of the time, people gamble with the intention of making money, not for entertainment. Whenever a person starts investing his or her money, there is always the realisation that something will be gained out of it. In this context gambling is regarded as the possibility to augment the income which in fact cannot be predicted. We need to keep in mind the fact that winning usually does not make a direct correlation with the risk that has been assumed. In such situations it is critical to be realistic so that we do not end up sinking deep in loses that we cannot handle. If you knew absolutely what these risks and gains were, then it would be easier to manage what we decide on and what we reject.
