Cast your mind back to when sports betting was not as rampant as it is now. There was less addiction and people worked hard for their money. But unfortunately sports betting is now the order of the day accross the world. Teenagers who have access to the internet have turned gamblers. I personally feel that the world would have been a better place without gambling. There would have been less regrets and wailing. There also would have been more believe in the dignity of labour.
Unlike now where people sit at home doing nothing but believing that they can win 100m with hundred naira.

sports have always existed before as much as sports betting it just became much more apparent now because it is online and it has made it much more accessible i do not think it is gambling's fault inherently that teenagers are gaining access when the platforms have already created something strict to keep them out and they should have never wanted to gamble in the first place
There also would have been more believe in the dignity of labour.

seems like someone is jealous he is earning 100m by doing nothing lol
people of before also did not all work hard many of them from before stole and scammed people gambling is not the reason to blame for laziness and incompetence of people

If gambling is not to be blamed completely but do you think gambling doesn't have a hand at all?

That's part of progress and advancement of technology, but the advantage outweighs the negative impact because communication becomes instant and we have access to much information because of the web. All industries innovate and advance, and gambling is one of the industries that benefited a lot from this technology. The past is good but now its better Many benefited from this technology and this is good.
-
There wouldn't be anything to gamble as well if there is no sports. Should we blame sports as well?
We are still entertaining ourselves with sports and gamblers are going to be a fan still. It's hard to educate people though bu the culture we have embedes gambling that's why it's regulated. There is money to be made in the industry that's why we are not stopping this.

Nothing in excess is good. In this case, I agree that the gambling addiction rate is much higher now than it was before, and we are currently seeing various negative impacts on society because of this. And also the online casinos' excessive advertising on social media has made it even more outrageous. However, we also have to keep in mind that it can only be used for entertainment purposes and should never be used as a making generating machine.

Here in my place even if internet does not exist until today people here are still getting addicted with sports betting though not through online but that actual betting since it is part of our culture to place bets on things especially in sports we even to bets with politics or anything that can be placed bets upon. The internet just make it worst since we now have online gambling.

You're right, I think the adverts for betting is intimidating and should be checked. The negative impacts can even be seen by the blind

Well this is currently where we have found ourselves today in the world as priorities and orientation of people has changed with the changing world because critically looking at before the coming of gambling to our country things where better because people where actually working hard for their daily bread rather than expecting unrealistic money from gambling which is not even sure. Personal I am of the opinion too that gambling has caused more harm our society than good because critically analyzing the effects of gambling to our environment you could tell that gambling has really made people to miss out on their priorities, vision and goals in life especially the teenagers who are not in the right mental state to know that gambling is not worth putting your hopes on but that they should work hard and earn their money

Scamming people only became easier in the advent of social media and smart phones. People worked harder then. Atleast we had great farmers and fisherman

The world was not completely better; people still had problems with addiction as a challenge. Gambling is not the cause of all the problems being faced currently by many individuals. If you have and hold that opinion towards gambling, I say it is formed from prejudice towards it.

Yeah for sure, gambling addiction is undeniably one of the biggest problems we are facing in the society today, especially amongst the youths and the unemployed, but that doesn’t really mean gambling should be condemned or something, because there are also others that are also indulging in the same gambling and yet, they’re still doing it responsibly, thus, addiction is a personal problem and a choice, and should also be tackled individually.

Addiction no doubt is a personal problem but when it becomes a symptom exhibited by majority of the people resulting from a particular activity it becomes something of concern. Are there measures that can be followed to check and curtail addition in gambling?

I get your point, but it is not the fault of the casino that most or majority of the gamblers out their have chosen to act according to the misconception they’ve gotten about gambling, and due to this high rate and chances of addiction, every casino warns or advice every gambler who uses their services to always gambler responsibly, which is enough to make any gambler think twice before taking an rational and impulsive actions when gambling. So I believe in the long run, it still solely depends on the gambler how he choose to approach gambling, whether to ignore the warnings and risks or not.

You are also right, we actually don't do what we should do. While gambling, we should always keep in mind that our loss here may be more than the profit but the excitement we get from here is our entertainment, for which we are gambling. But against this mind set, we get greedy by seeing the high rate and later we take the wrong step where we have no self control. Finally, we have no choice but to see our loss increase.

Gambling has always existed in different forms. Growing up I could see people playing "pool" as it was called and even then I also know of men who worked but had nothing after retirement because of spending money on "pool". What we see now is a modification of what has previously existed.
However, addiction is not as common as it is today and that is because of the high level of awareness and ease of access to the gambling platforms. People can gamble at any time and from any location as long as it is legal, which has resulted in high rates of gambling and its associated consequences for gamblers.

Well the thing there is that, gambling is undeniably very addictive, coupled with the generally accepted misconception about gambling that’s majority of the gamblers now have about gambling, which makes it possible for only those gamblers with a high level of self control to be able to focus only on the thrill and fun aspect of gambling alone. Because even some who claim to be having fun with gambling often get caught in this web too which shows just how vulnerable almost everyone is.

Do people no longer put in a lot of effort to earn their money? Did people stop looking for work because they are gambling? People are still working hard despite gambling. To fund gambling, you must look for other sources of income, which is why people continue to work despite the proliferation of gambling platforms.
People are always looking for ways to improve their lives, and gambling is one of the ways they believe will help them do so. Unfortunately, gambling is causing more harm than good to these gamblers, particularly desperate gamblers.
Addiction, as you mentioned, is on the rise, and I believe that gamblers should bear responsibility for it rather than gambling itself. Many gamblers lack mental and emotional maturity, which makes them susceptible to addiction. A mature mind will always restrain itself when it is clear that what he is pursuing is uncertain, whereas immature gamblers will chase even harder when they are not winning.
I personally feel that the world would have been a better place without gambling. There would have been less regrets and wailing. There also would have been more believe in the dignity of labour.
I doubt that the world would have been better without gambling. Most people who gamble are only looking for a way to get out of poverty or improve their standard of living, and I am sure that even if they did not gamble, they would look for ways to survive and escape poverty. Maybe we would have been experiencing something worst.

Now is better, Internet has opened gates of opportunities. Regarding people using it to gamble from comfort of their home (which again, I see it as only advantage), it's their choice to gamble.

Without a doubt, anyone can now easily access gambling platforms thanks to the internet. Due to the anonymity provided by online gambling platforms, people can also gamble in secret. There are drawbacks to what you perceive to be an advantage.
People are struggling to control their gambling urges because most gamblers are quick to check the next available games when they lose. When a gambler looks at the available games, he always has the feeling that he will be able to recover his losses if he stakes because all games appear to be promising to a gambler.
In the past, the situation was different. Because there were no online betting platforms, a limited number of betting shops, low awareness of gambling, and the fact that only adults were seen gambling, people spent less time and resources on gambling, and gambling-related problems were rarely experienced or heard.

Because even some who claim to be having fun with gambling often get caught in this web too which shows just how vulnerable almost everyone is.
As I already said, most of the users make wrong decisions and later suffer losses. And I think the reason for this is now clear that currently most of the social media and platforms are promoting gambling to earn money from adsense, as well as influencers directly promoting gambling, which is why we often see underage people gambling. And the way they spread positivity and earn money by gambling, most people fall victim to misleading, which is also one of the reasons for losing self-control.

Technological tools are more open to children and adolescents, that is why parents have to be there guiding children so they do not stray away, before when people worked the economy was much better, now things are more difficult and it is likely that they work a lot and do not receive the same salary as before, or if they do receive it, it is not enough to buy what they used to buy before, games and sports betting are not to blame, they are simply businesses that are there to offer a service that is sold as "fun" where no one is forced to use it.

I think casino shops should roll out stricter measures to restrict minors from gambling. Because it's horrible to see gamblers who are minors who should be planing there future become addicts

If you check very well with the physical/offline casinos and the gambling outlets, you’ll know that they’re actually very strict with the minors restrictions policy. That’s why, you find it really difficult to see underaged gamblers visit physical casinos more often. The only ones you may likely see are those that don’t look their age at all, and it becomes difficult or even impossible to tell that they’re actually underaged or below the required age.
Those who actually look their age often make use of the online casinos, where it’s very easy to use an elder’s id to bypass verification procedures.

The difference between now and then is the number f casinos that are available to us. I remember back then how I have to treck my legs some kilometers to place where they are booking games, you will see crowd with number of people waiting in line to bet but today, I don't do that anymore because there is internet in my home and there is casinos everywhere online to bet.
Eveeyone now understood how profitable is to run gambling casino online, it's more easy to set up and people even run it illegally to make money and people bet on them for some reasons. This is why gambling is everywhere.

You're actually right because the difference between now and then is just the emergence of the Internet which has made sports betting more easier and accessible to all as awareness of gambling too has increased there is no where in the net that you will not see about one casino trying to advertise their brand so with this and the Internet in the hands of people especially the youths betting has become more pronounced among the youths that is why you see many youth's who are now addicted to gambling
So basically there's no much difference between the past where there was little opportunities in terms of betting shops which was few in numbers due to lack of information and now that the Internet has taken over everywhere and even in the streets there are betting shops every where for people to easily gamble

Yes, addiction is a personal problem, and the world will not change because some idiots can't control their emotions towards certain activities/hobbies. However, there are measures being implemented on most gambling platforms, such as the self-exclude tool, which allows you to exclude yourself from gambling activities for X number of days. There is also a wager limit, a loss limit, and temporary exclusion tools to help reduce gambling addiction.
The tools and awareness are available; gambling is for fun; the instant you stop having fun when gambling, there is a problem.

We are still entertaining ourselves with sports and gamblers are going to be a fan still. It's hard to educate people though bu the culture we have embedes gambling that's why it's regulated. There is money to be made in the industry that's why we are not stopping this.
I don't think sports is the only basis of gambling. People gamble in virtually anything you can think of. People gamble to determine the cost of fashion, they gamble about the networth of musicians, about the price of services and commodities. There's a lot to gamble for beyond sports.

The risk of losing money due to gambling addiction is very high. People become addicted to gambling without knowing much about it or with the intention of earning more money from this platform. And this addiction has a negative impact on their personal lives. Earlier, people's communication system was not good. People could not use the internet if they wanted, which is why there was no opportunity like in the present time in terms of betting. But nowadays people get so many opportunities that they can gamble sitting at home, which is why they fail to conduct uncontrolled gambling.

Isn't gambling addiction more manageable with casino apps? thanks to the new features I stated above, which are primarily intended to moderate addiction? However, some casino platforms have yet to adopt those functions.
Self-exclusion option works incredibly well for individuals who can't control their addiction.

Yes. The addiction is obviously more now than than. Prior to now people sneaked into gambling and betting halls but now the narrative is different, people now accept publicly that they are gamblers.

Everyone is looking forward to living a better and comfortable life, but the decisions that we make will always come with new problems. And when there are easy opportunities like gambling we are tempted without even considering its relevance in the whole sphere of our life. At this point, we must ensure that we have worked hard to strike a balance in this so many facets of life. Not engaging in certain things that could be deemed as harmful in one way, or the other, will allow us expend time and energy on productive activities. If we help and recall each other, there is a change to develop new better habits and to provide a calm atmosphere in the family and in the surrounding.

Isn't gambling addiction more manageable with casino apps?
Havent thought about it previously, but gambling on devices like mobile and tablets is very manageable. I set timers for my child on apps on mobile and tablet. Those apps are active only few hours a day, rest of the time app icons are grey and can not be be clicked. With features you have mentioned above, if there is a person who can be trusted, it can be tuned that a person can gamble a hour a day and lose not more than specified amount. Advanced gambler might try to find a solution for that, but on default addicted gambler that will make a positive effect.

The most effective feature is the loss limit - all you have to do is set a specific amount you can afford to lose for a specific X number of days and if you hit that number of loses, you won't be able to gamble again until the set date elapsed.
That's the feature I mostly used to maintain my loss percentage and to make user I'm losing less than I can afford..
-
Back then, sports betting wasn’t everywhere like now. People worked hard for their money and valued it more. But now, even teenagers are deep into gambling because of easy internet access, without gambling, there would be fewer regrets, and people would believe more in hard work. Nowadays, many just sit at home hoping to turn a little money into millions instead of working for it.
-
Yes. The addiction is obviously more now than than. Prior to now people sneaked into gambling and betting halls but now the narrative is different, people now accept publicly that they are gamblers.
Actually, I have no issues with one people are accepting publicly that they were gambler I will have issues if this was a crime or if they proudly say that they were addicted Gambler. Now if there were just entertaining their self by gambling and investing as much as they can afford to lose then I think we shouldn't have to worry about them. I am talking about the excessive gambling which is an addiction. But there is no doubt that the addiction rate is high more than before.

Yes you are right, there is no real problem if someone is open about their gambling, because they are also using their money, unless we are also harmed by their gambling activities.
Now the problem is that people gamble with something they can't really afford to lose, that's what is really the problem. Because of that it might cause other problems.

The appearance of gambling started long ago, the number of gamblers is much higher now than at that time. Not only that, but gamblers now consider gambling as a source of income and gamble regularly. Due to which the gambling industry has grown greatly. However, there is no problem in gambling for a gambler if he can control himself in gambling. But the problem is that not everyone can control gambling. They do not know how they will survive if they lose. Now the problem is not with the gambling institution but with the gambler himself, which has to be solved.

The internet opens up a lot of avenues actually not only in gambling it's just that addiction is easier here because it has such easy access, so it really depends on how individuals choose.
And I think gambling cannot be avoided, the revolution is so fast that the development of gambling will be the same too, so just weigh which one is better.

we are in a digital era now,not only gamble so many activities have double up,gamble doesn't affect the world it only destroy the individuals,it is a matter of choice,while some are not chronicle gamblers just like me i gamble when i choose to it doesn't have edge over me.
You can not talk about the world without talking about the individuals that make up the world. The world is nothing without individuals and humans. So if gambling affects lots of humans in the world it's safe to say it affects the world. During the COVID_19 era only few individuals were affected from the beginning but yet the virus kept the world on standstill
-

Not everyone is involved in gambling. In fact, it is possible to avoid gambling. Without a doubt, I used to gamble, but I have since stopped since I do not think it yields good profits. I also know some gamblers who have given up gambling because they do not think it is necessary.
Gamblers often think that gambling makes life better, but in actuality avoiding gambling makes life better. Those money lost in gambling can actually be used for things that can be productive.

Due to which the gambling industry has grown greatly. However, there is no problem in gambling for a gambler if he can control himself in gambling. But the problem is that not everyone can control gambling. They do not know how they will survive if they lose. Now the problem is not with the gambling institution but with the gambler himself, which has to be solved.
If we think from one side then it is actually normal that the number of gamblers will increase because the number of people in the world is increasing day by day. If we look at it from this side, it may seem normal, but here the thing that is more dangerous than the number of gamblers in gambling is that the addiction of gamblers is increasing day by day.
And which is definitely outside the normal rate at present and is completely responsible for this is the free casino site promotion on the internet especially when influencers promote them.

Just stop projecting and live within the reality. If you want to change sports betting or completely eliminate gambling, then goodluck. You don't even really know how gambling started, I don't, but I bet people back then would kill another person just to win something. If you move back further in time, I think men showing who is superior or stronger to win a woman is also a form of betting.
-
Yes you are right, there is no real problem if someone is open about their gambling, because they are also using their money, unless we are also harmed by their gambling activities.
Now the problem is that people gamble with something they can't really afford to lose, that's what is really the problem. Because of that it might cause other problems.
In this case I own gonna fully this agree with you because what you have said that is also through that now a days people are gambling with that fund what they can't afford to lose and also another dangerous thing is people were being addicted into it.
In this case I have to say there is nothing but wait to make more awareness about the gambling responsibility, and the casino sites promote themselves that should be moderate and create thought in the mind of people like this gambling is for only entertainment.

Well, It is not an easy task to transform people’s behaviours from something that has been familiar to them for many years. There are ways that we can take as initial measures in order to establish fewer detrimental effects on gambling on people’s lives. When we had focused on some aspect of our existence long enough, many of us take it in as a norm to revert to it fairly often, but it does not mean that that particular aspect cannot be done away with. If we learn to support each other and understand what it is that we both wish to accomplish, then a new route that we both want, and is superior for both, can be established. Consistent efforts that we take today will take us to greater steps for the future generation as a whole.

But unfortunately sports betting is now the order of the day accross the world. Teenagers who have access to the internet have turned gamblers. I personally feel that the world would have been a better place without gambling. There would have been less regrets and wailing. There also would have been more believe in the dignity of labour.
Well, can you suggest a solution to the problem that you're saying then? You're just stating the problem, but you can't give any solution just like many here. There's a famous quote saying, "If you can't beat them, join them." I'm not saying that you gamble as well, but if you can't give any concrete solution to what's happening then just let it be and avoid it as much as possible.
The world would be better without gambling? This is just a fantasy coming from you, but you didn't live in a time where gambling isn't popular. As for teenagers turned gamblers, you're stereotyping, and not all of those teenagers that have internet are now gamblers. I know some here in my community, and for sure there are many around the world that are the same.
Please let's just accept the fact that gambling is here to stay just like cryptocurrencies. You as a person can avoid gambling though. Just don't get tempted to do it.

Waiting for them to realize what they are doing is wrong is also not good, but we will also have difficulty making them realize it when they are already at a very high level with their gambling.
This is actually a complicated thing, especially if we are not their family. Unless we are their family, I think as a family we have the right to remind them in a harsh way for example.

I will not exaggerate you because these things are also true.
I have some close kwon people around me those were just like that addicted sometimes they asked me some dollar for gambling, even then when they were asking money from me they said another reason and after that when they lose their bet they shows their regrets to me so that I will not ask them give my money back soon.I also tried sometime to aware them but most of them listen their own not mine and stay with their addiction.

It does take some resolve for us when handling such occurrences especially if it is with those we are close with and may not be fully aware of the harm they are caused. The notion of help making does not always require satisfying their demands as soon as we know that the purpose they intend to use it is not wholesome. At other times you need to define your limits in order to be able to continue helping them without enabling them to continue in their undesired behaviours. They may have all the sorrow and all the regret in the world, but that’s no reason why we have to pay the price for their actions. Being able to continue encouraging them to wean them self out is a great accomplishment averting a huge decision so that ultimately it lies solely in their own decision making.

Unlike now where people sit at home doing nothing but believing that they can win 100m with hundred naira.
This is just state of mind and is for those who doesn't wanna to make any effort to become productive to themselves, gambling has been existing for centuries now and same problems has been there, just that there is a redefinition of gambling where they world financial system Is gradually changing and we can gamble anonymously without people around knowing that we are gambling. We can still control our gambling activities by regulating it without even thinking that all our lives dependency lies on gamble to change our stories.

Now this has become a more complicated matter, because they have dared to borrow money to gamble. I just remind you, if you give them a loan while you know the money is used for gambling, then it will become a habit.
Maybe right now you can still empathize with them, but believe me sooner or later you will become annoyed with their habits and in the end you may have a bad relationship.

Actually what you are thinking or saying has already happened to some extent.
In the meantime, their relationship with me had become such that taking loans from me and gambling became their regular habit. Later, when I saw that they were not giving back my money on time, I stopped borrowing them, even then I still get money from them. And I have taken my decision that I will not lend to them again in the future for this what changes in our relationship I will accept that.

What you did was right, regarding whatever will happen then it is beyond control, because this is a very sensitive matter. I can also predict that they will definitely start thinking about something bad when you no longer give them a loan.
But that's the risk, especially once again this is a sensitive matter. Sometimes we have to do or say something bitter, yes it is for our own good and maybe others.

Sometimes when People have problems with the game, it is appropriate not to do it, it is Always better to avoid certain things at a given moment because it affects our overall Health , if there is Something that falls badly due to a circumstance then we should not do it, as much as we like it but it hurts us we must control that Impulse of not doing things, it is not in this way that possible Problems that come and stay in our lives will be Avoided , later on, you can play Without problems but with a superior Maturation of the problem.

Actually, this is the reality of the world. I have already understood that even if I give them a loan, our relationship will be bad if they give me money later. Rather than that, I think it is better to tell them no in advance and let there be some disagreement there.
And at the last, it may also appear that they will blame me for losing so much money gambling because I lent them money. That's why I'm already trying to stay away from these places.

Sometimes we have to take such steps and try to stay away from something that will cause us a problem. Not because we want to make the relationship between us bad, but there is no other choice if everything can't be discussed.
Actually we also don't want to do something like this, but the circumstances force us so we have to do it.

Cast your mind back to when sports betting was not as rampant as it is now. There was less addiction and people worked hard for their money. But unfortunately sports betting is now the order of the day accross the world. Teenagers who have access to the internet have turned gamblers.

we are in a digital era now,not only gamble so many activities have double up,gamble doesn't affect the world it only destroy the individuals,it is a matter of choice,while some are not chronicle gamblers just like me i gamble when i choose to it doesn't have edge over me.
I agree that so many activities have doubled up but I am more pertinent about gambling because of its devastating effects, it crumbles its victims to the point of death. I have seen first hand the effect of gambling on close friends so I detest it even though I haven't left it

And besides, I think that these decisions will not only benefit me, but also the public that is there will refrain from gambling if they were not borrowing from some other people.
And the wisest advice I can give is that it is better not to do these related money transactions between friends because in the end, the friendship is not the same anymore.

Now is more better, because things have obviously advanced well to where they were now in gambling, we should not only get focused on the bad side, instead we should look around to discover above how gambling have made some required changes in human lives to where we are in it today, there is no doubt that we are going to missed the past, but however, we are still appreciating the present developments we have with gambling this present generation.

Well, change can always happen in different fields and matters interesting many people. What is present today cannot be compared to what was present in the past and the changes which take place have many effects felt by those in the society. There is nothing wrong with seeing things from other perspectives especially when it concerns issues that have reached a certain stage in life. Acknowledging the fact that something is good does not entail erasing or negating what has happened in the past but rather learning to embrace change that is now a reality. That which has advanced today of course offers a different encounter to the many hence that is something that is still vigorously interesting to observe.

The world was not completely better; people still had problems with addiction as a challenge. Gambling is not the cause of all the problems being faced currently by many individuals. If you have and hold that opinion towards gambling, I say it is formed from prejudice towards it.
Gambling is not the cause of all the problems, I agree but that doesn't mean we should jettison the challenges acosted by gambling. We have order issues like drug addiction but you cannot deny the evil gambling is doing to youths

Yes you are right, we should avoid transactions between friends, because it can be something that will damage the good relationship between us. Even in urgent situations and it is not for gambling, if there is something that can be done other than borrowing, then it is better to do something else first.
I once heard something on social media, if they are hungry then come, I will give them anything to eat, even when I don't give it then it is better to be hungry together, but never borrow money.

As the saying goes, A man is known by the company he keeps, I think it is better to not lend money to friends who borrow money from us for gambling, even if they do not remain friends.
Because at some point, it may happen that seeing them repeatedly gambling with this loan, I mean, their addiction may also lead to our addiction, which is very scary. So I think that without those friends, nothing will happen. But we will definitely try to support our friends in the right emergency situation, whether financially or mentally.

Yes, of course we will help them when the situation is very urgent, but for gambling, it is not an emergency situation at all and it can even cause an emergency.
Indirectly, when we do not give them loans, then at that time we are like helping them to avoid gambling, at least they will not gamble until they really have money. We can help in any way, including the way I said.

I agree with you because if we help them in their emergency, then that is truly helping.
But if they ask us to lend them money to gamble and we lend them that money, then we are doing them more harm than good. In this case, it would be helpful if they were not loaned money. Because borrowing and gambling never gets rid of debt, but rather that person gets trapped in the net of more debt.

Well that's the point, sometimes they think of borrowing money to gamble and if they win they can pay off all their debts, that's a thought that I think doesn't make sense at all, because how can we hope for something that depends so much on luck.
Instead of being able to pay off their debts, they actually have to experience new problems which are likely to increase their debts.

To be honest if it is something where profit doesn't depend on only luck and also based on some skill then I could have no issues with giving money on a loan.
Like my friends want to borrow from me to make an start up then I would have no issues but if they ask for gambling this is likely not going to work from me specifically on this current situation and as well the futures.

Even if your friend wants to borrow money for gambling purposes, they will not tell you that the money will be used for gambling because it is not even reasonable to borrow money for gambling, and being bold enough to say that you want money for gambling demonstrates how irresponsible the individual is.
However, if a friend asks me for money to gamble, I will give him the money as long as he is creditworthy. Who knows, the money he borrowed may help him win. Since nobody can predict when a gambler will win, it would be hard for such a friend to forgive you if the game played but he didn't stake because I didn't borrow him the money.

What happens is that we see it from a very different point of view, we know that lending money is to help someone who needs it, but sometimes a friendship can be broken because of this problem, because the person who lends the money if he is irresponsible will not pay, and that person will then get angry with the person who lent him because he will see that it is wrong to charge him, I really preferred to risk a friendship with a friend maybe falling in love with her and having something with her, because many times lending money to a friend that friendship can be broken very easily.

The advancement of technology has made what was not really rampant before to be rampant, that anyone can stay in the comfort of their home to engage in gambling at any time of the day.
Gambling years back and gambling today are not really the same. There are many differences in the sense that we have a high rise in gambling addictions compared to before. Today, we can find underage gambling; years back, you can't find underage near a gambling house.

How would you know the money they intend borrowing from you will be used for gambling? Some friends are very good when it comes to cooking up stories and appealing to the conscience of their friend. They can even tell you They are in the police just for you to loan them money
-
Unlike now where people sit at home doing nothing but believing that they can win 100m with hundred naira.
That's part of progress and advancement of technology, but the advantage outweighs the negative impact because communication becomes instant and we have access to much information because of the web. All industries innovate and advance, and gambling is one of the industries that benefited a lot from this technology. The past is good but now its better Many benefited from this technology and this is good.
Significantly so, despite the adverse effects of technology, technology no doubt has a lot of negative effects but the positive outcomes of technology outweighs heavily it's negativites. We live in the 21st century and I think it's a privilege to be part of the world at this time of technological advancement

You didn't actually say anything wrong because similar incidents have almost happened to me that they took a loan at a time of need and later I found out that they didn't actually borrow money from me for any need, they just gambled with the money and lost that money. However, we mostly know the nature of our friends or people close to us whether they gamble or to what extent they are addicted to gambling. Based on this, I have currently put myself in such a position that I will never lend money to such people.

Those are 2 different things, building a business and gambling, I would also do the same thing, that I might consider and give them a loan if the money is used for business capital.
Even I also often lend money to friends who want to start working, I can understand that and indeed after they get their first salary they will immediately pay.

Yes that's true if they want to lend for start business then we must see their first initial approach that would be physical so it would be let me allow them for borrowing. And even then if I don't see anything much approach then I will not give them any money. And as well we definitely know our friends behaviour.
And also what you said they will immediately willing to pay our money if they really want to do do something real work by lending.

Well, whenever you can help a friend to do business with money, it is something that is very good, as long as it is for that, so that he can undertake and get ahead, all that is excellent, what I would say about not supporting in lending money is to play in a casino or make sports bets, because it is very certain that they cannot or do not have the capacity to pay, that always happens , however , things when you try to do them well you have to see with what intentions one can lend the money.

Whenever someone of my friends do tend to ask for some borrowing money for any reason then i dont really grant it out. I would really be that somewhat having some exemptions if it would really be used on real emergencies on which if i do have that some extra money then i would definitely be that considering it out but most of the time i wont really be that granting out any request about taking up some loan. In my own case on the moment that i do tend to take up some loan too then it will be used up business or investment and not on any other reason. Its really that important that you do really know on where you do make use of the funds.

In a way, you are doing the right thing because we often don't know where our friends are actually using their money. Although we are aware of the nature of most of our friends but some time it also doesn't work out.
And I liked your point that we must have knowledge about where we are using our money and in case of this we should make our physical attends on giving someone lend.

I would really be that somewhat having some exemptions if it would really be used on real emergencies on which if i do have that some extra money then i would definitely be that considering it out but most of the time i wont really be that granting out any request about taking up some loan. In my own case on the moment that i do tend to take up some loan too then it will be used up business or investment and not on any other reason. Its really that important that you do really know on where you do make use of the funds.
In a way, you are doing the right thing because we often don't know where our friends are actually using their money. Although we are aware of the nature of most of our friends but some time it also doesn't work out.
And I liked your point that we must have knowledge about where we are using our money and in case of this we should make our physical attends on giving someone lend.
Many times when friends ask for money, they don't say what they will do with it. Moreover, if they are asked when lending money, they refuse and don't say anything. That's why they don't feel the need to ask what they will do even if someone asks. Again, gamblers can lie when asked because no one will ever lend someone money to gamble.

Even if they say what they want to use the money for, it may not be the real reason. Regardless, as a individual, if you must lend money to a friend, the reason is immaterial. It takes a lot of courage to ask and no matter how unreasonable the reason may be it is wise to borrow a friend the money as long as you have it and can spare.

In those cases when you will gave those friends money you will be the sufferer in the future because they will not gonna easily pay your money back.
I have experienced many time this situation even those friend who take money by providing a reasoning for lending. Even then the time there said they will back the money they couldn't keep their promise. And end of the day the situation will be like you will give them on their emergency situation but you have to receive money from them in your emergency situation like you are begging someone for your own money.

Those are 2 different things, building a business and gambling, I would also do the same thing, that I might consider and give them a loan if the money is used for business capital.
Even I also often lend money to friends who want to start working, I can understand that and indeed after they get their first salary they will immediately pay.
Yes that's true if they want to lend for start business then we must see their first initial approach that would be physical so it would be let me allow them for borrowing. And even then if I don't see anything much approach then I will not give them any money. And as well we definitely know our friends behaviour.
And also what you said they will immediately willing to pay our money if they really want to do do something real work by lending.
And even when I am with friends that I really trust and they are having financial problems or they need money to do something, I will offer them a loan and return it when they have it.
I mean that to make it easier for them, because if they borrow from a bank or whatever, there is a tenor period, it will make it difficult for them. Of course I will help according to my ability.

Cast your mind back to when sports betting was not as rampant as it is now. There was less addiction and people worked hard for their money. But unfortunately sports betting is now the order of the day accross the world. Teenagers who have access to the internet have turned gamblers. I personally feel that the world would have been a better place without gambling. There would have been less regrets and wailing. There also would have been more believe in the dignity of labour.
Unlike now where people sit at home doing nothing but believing that they can win 100m with hundred naira.
Gambling has been around since the time of Jesus, as mentioned in the Bible. However, it’s up to us to control our emotions and practice discipline when gambling, because without discipline, we risk going broke. I understand that this is easier said than done, but as gamblers, we must do everything we can to stay disciplined and avoid making our lives miserable.

To stay safe as a gambler, you must control your emotions and exercise discipline. Emotions can drive a gambler to risk everything just to recover his losses because gamblers want to win, and it is unfortunate that when gamblers do not win, they spiral out of control.
This is where control and discipline kick in. Regardless of his losses, a gambler can choose not to continue betting due to control and discipline. As you mentioned, it is easier said than done, but it is extremely beneficial to gamblers who can imbibe it.

Nothing in excess is good. In this case, I agree that the gambling addiction rate is much higher now than it was before, and we are currently seeing various negative impacts on society because of this. And also the online casinos' excessive advertising on social media has made it even more outrageous. However, we also have to keep in mind that it can only be used for entertainment purposes and should never be used as a making generating machine.
Nothing in excess is good but there are things you do in excess with very severe, excruciating and very mean consequences. Unlike gambling where addiction can ruin your life or take you ten years backward

The call and advancement of technology has made the world a global village where almost anything can be done instantly. As there are those who gamble and succeed, so are those who doesn't see profit from it as well.
If the people are wise enough, when something is not really working out in profitably, change course of direction, try something new and different. For me, I take gambling for fun, and I only make use of funds that will not in any single way affect me financially or emotionally.

Gambling is gambling and I didn't see much corruption or changed rather than the introduction of cryptocurrency that has made gambling mode swifter and hassle free, but then people has been gambling using physical casinos that hasn't changed anytime yet or neither does that stops people from gambling. Like I know gambling has been existing for long and people who entirely put their mind to pass and Elephant from the eyes of a niddle are still trying their best which we know that is not possible to happened and gambling is mindset, depending on how you places your mindset also reacts to your gambling involvement or activities.

You can obviously not compare now and then, now people comfortably go to the betting shop in the morning and come back at night. Then people sneaked because they don't want to be seen as gamblers but now gambling is very common and no one hides it

Yes, Gambling is a such thing which can even destroy a life, a family.
As I say nothing excess is good, even if you studying overtime like you don't focus on rest then you will be able to healthy for long time you will be in various deases for that.
Where excess limit of studying will make negative result then gambling will must impact the bad side so I think we should make gambling in a limited time not all days that will fall us to be addicted gambler.

From any kind of experience it is always true that anything done to extreme is not good to us. After being involved with a person at a workplace starting with a simple idea of caring, it may unconsciously enter a phase that is less manageable. Anything that has affected your life to the extreme will conveniently affect other parts of your life, including your health, your relation with family and your financial status. If there are no barriers of one type or another, what was once considered enjoyable can become destructive. Of course, it is not desirable that worthwhile items should be lost due to misunderstandings that are repeated time and time again. Some folks have stated that knowing when to let go is the best way of maintaining the desired balance in life and not be overwhelmed by habits that are hard to contain.

That's right, Some times in the race of this hard world firstly we run for money and neglect to our health and then when we get the success I mean the money and the wealth, we just have to run to recover our health and spend our money on behind of this. I am saying this and giving example because any kind of things when we do the extreme limit we will not have the proper and perfect result from there. So this is not only the gambling where we will have the bad impact when we will do that excessively. But in case of gambling we must have to be more conscious because this will impact on you financially in a time.

Well, yeah too much is bad so we should consider doing it moderately or much better we try to focus on things we want to achieve in our lives but I agree that some people may say it is boring that is why they play gambling well, I don't have any problem with that but the question is how long, how often and how much do you need to lose just to stop from doing it?

I will not deny your words because yes there is lots of people who were thinking up like this that they will get quick rich by doing gambling but I have also in this regard, is it possible, and yes it is possible and possible for 1 person from 1 billion so now will it be a wise decision to take you on this definitely not. So we have to get out from the dream and do work for getting success in the real life. Do gambling for fun at a limit not that much what you can't afford to lose.

Yes, these are activities that may be interesting at first but after sometime, they can prove to be a source of stress in our lives. This means that if a certain habit becomes too time consuming, energy consuming, or even distressing, one should then consider whether it is really worth it. Some may just consider it to be a small thing and it has the potential of becoming worse without their knowledge. It will be all the more productive to pursue an activity that will produce something with a lot of positive impacts not only in the present but in the coming years as well. It is always up to us and it is much better when a person understands what is more important in one’s life.

What you have been saying that is also true, like we play gambling for fun but we have to also remind that our gaming should be in limit otherwise it will spread our brain more dopamine and then the next time it would need to more and more, and where we will make our life destroy by doing only gambling.
So we should gambling on that way which ways we will only get fun from it not like it will be a reason for our stress and depression.

Yes, savouring something with limits set is good so that one does not get stuck in something that is bad for the self. The good intention of keeping on doing something can mislead one without that particular person noticing it. Bearing this in mind, it can be seen that moderation in everything keeps one comfortable without having to withstand unforeseen effects. This way the approaches we are enjoying cannot be a weigh on us. If something becomes annoying or even provocative to the fact that we can not control it, then this means that we need to change something in our everyday life. That way we are able to enjoy the pleasure without necessarily surrendering the control of the life to it.

Those who gamble for fun will always be happy because they get pleasure every time they gamble. Such gamblers are unconcerned about the outcome because they do not expect a particular. They enjoy the game because of its nature.
However, a gambler who gambles for fun must also set limits. We gamble with money, and no one enjoys losing money. This is why any gambler who loses money is likely to chase losses in order to recover, but this can be avoided if only a small amount of money is lost.

I must be agree with you becuase those who gamble without having proper plan or strategy they will not have good experience in their gambling in their future.
And as well I also think even a gambler should have the strategy with the limit what he can afford to lose, they must avoid their greed when they play gambling because when they will have the greed in the mind even they have proper plan than can not be properly executed by them.

I believe the current times are way better than previous times because back then we had less opportunities and now we have more opportunities and if we avail those opportunities properly then we can literally make some good amount of cash in short time. I've made some good profits in sports betting and I believe anyone who enjoys sports betting and is knowledgeable about it will always consider it as a good thing.

Not too sure what you call opportunities but there are changes in the betting markets in terms of the options and payoffs. Today, gamblers have plethora of options to choose from unlike in the past where the options are limited.
Well, I believe this is where opportunities come into play, as a gambler can choose safe options and win from them. However, most safe options have lower odds, and the gambler, driven by greed, will desire more and ultimately lose.

I don't think anyone who has been gambling for a while will have such a thinking to use such a small amount of money to win big money. It's actually possible but the probability is less than 1% which we know it's going to be waste of time. The only amount that is reasonable to win ₦100 is ₦100k but even that, there is alot of combinations that you can't get right.
If you ate betting, you should be using a reasonable amount of money to bet and also make sure that the potential wining is not that big otherwise you will lose more than you are betting and you will get fed up of trying to win something that isn't possible.

It is true that now the accessible is more easy than before where we have to go the casino shop for playing and sometimes it is become a barriers because there was some cost issues.
But it is also become a reason to be addicted to gambling and now if we see the addiction rate this was also increasing rapidly, I think even it is now more easy to access but also become something to cut peoples money becuase not everyone having the opportunity to have win.

Well, they don't win anything substantial, they are going to lose more money in the long run so let them learn their lesson in their own way. I doubt people are that much into gambling, surely the evolution of internet brought access to more people but it doesn't mean people stopped working and just expecting their future complely on their luck.

People are unique and have their own tendency to control their financial activities towards gambling. Not all of them make it the only hope to live because most of them still have another source of income, either employment or other steady forms of business. Although the opportunity to reach more people will make more people attempt it, this however does not mean that everything will just depend on chance. Some can write and play their game with the knowledge that they are risking to be booted out, while others simulate the game fully aware that they are sure to be expelled. It is still up to them and until someone does not have control of his choice, it remains a part of personal models which cannot be generalised to the community.
