how do gambling expert mitigate the spread of gambling?

It is not that gamblers don't know that they can get addicted due to excessive gambling but the problem is they get carried away with chasing their losses or the greed of not being satisfied with their little wins and want to win more. Profit is always the cause of addiction, that is why any gambler that only gamble to entertain himself will definitely be a responsible gambler. He will plan the amount that he will use to gamble and once he has lost it, he quits the game because he had fun. Addiction should be avoided in order for one to live a healthy life and at the same time enjoy the fun in gambling.

I agree with your submission. In addition to what you have noted, some gamblers turn to gambling as their saving grace. Saving grace in the sense that they believe that gambling can aid them in solving their problems. Unfortunately, gambling creates more problems than it solves.

Thus, it is better for a gambler to get rid of such intention and understand that gambling is not a problem solver. When a gambler understand this his approach towards gambling will change and so he will gamble with limitation knowing that any money used for gambling is lost.

This is exactly my ordeal. I will share my experience. I had 50,000 Naira and I was to pay school fees which was 120,000 Naira. My parents told me that they would send me the remaining 70,000 Naira in 3days time and so due to lack of patient I quickly went to my betting app to place a stake of 20,000 Naira for 3odds so that I could make extra money. Sadly, I lost and I continue gambling until I lost the 50,000 Naira. Now, when my parents gave me the 70,000 Naira , I placed it on 2odds and also lost. So, gambling is never an option or an avenue to solve problems because as you have rightly noted, gambling will compound the problem instead of helping to mitigate it.

Only an ignorant and desperate gambler would believe that gambling, which is marked by uncertainty, could help him overcome a problem. Borrowing and then solving a problem is more reliable than gambling with money that might have solved 10% of the problem. Though you may be lucky, I cannot rule it out, the truth is that most of the time you will not win, so it is better not to rely on it at all than to hope to be lucky.

how to manage time and money there are important points in life, if we take the wrong steps and choose decisions everything will fall apart, especially if all our time and money is spent on the gambling table, it's really a shame, right, the context in which we started gambling was just to have fun Not for money seekers, if everything is under control, there's nothing wrong with us still being able to gamble

Agree, time and money management is an important factor in life, we can't just leave it as it is because it might make everything fall apart. If it's messy, then it will make it difficult for us to fix it again.

Now if it involves gambling, then we have to have more money to allocate it for gambling and here is where the problem will arise when we can't manage our time very well, yes we might get caught in financial problems.

and in the end, despair, due to mistakes and without realizing it, there are already a lot of debts and they are everywhere in high amounts, and with an unstable mentality,  end up ending life by leaving this debt, which happens a lot in today's society, committing suicide because of gambling debts. on line

Might sound weird but it happens. Being in debt can lead to someone considering suicide or even committing suicide in order to avoid pressure from his creditors. Something similar occurred in my neighborhood, when a man drank sniper and died to avoid the pressures of multiple people he owed. I am not sure what drew him into debt, but the point is that a person can become so indebted as a result of gambling addiction that they resort to suicide, as you have mentioned.

Regardless of the negative aspects of gambling, we cant deny the fact that gambling provides us with ability to have fun while playing games, this is the m9st important aspects in gambling and the reason why we gamble in the first place, more also we have to uncover what it is to gamble and what the negative aspects are and how their play out in our daily life's.

Gambling addictions and high debt ratio in gamblers is what triggered the discussions surrounding negative aspect of gambling,  but aside from that, if gambling is done within the desired fundamental nature it means that you can easily be secured while gambling and wont have any need to record most of the negative aspects a d results.

I agree with you, we have to give up and throw away the words "gambling can change your life."
indeed the word is correct but the meaning of the word can be said to be better or worse as you say, from observation there is no gambling that makes people rich

That phrase had caused more harm than good. The hope that gambling can change people's lives has led to so many gamblers becoming addicted. When a gambler believes that gambling has the potential to change his life, he will pursue losses with the goal of recouping them and making millions. This has not worked for many gamblers, which is why the vast majority of gamblers complain on a daily basis about how their lives would have been better if they had not gambled at all.

I agree with you, we have to give up and throw away the words "gambling can change your life."

It is normal that some people do that in order to promote their way of playing or their teachings, but above all it calls my attention because many do promote it, and that remains in the brain because they play with the need of some people to make money, and of course for them it is not complicated to play, it is the easiest thing in the world, it is better to play than to study, because with a stroke of luck there is a lot of money, but really these things have to be said to clear up any doubt of those people who believe that in the game the opportunities to win are greater, that cannot happen,that cannot happen and much less to be rich.

I think the OP makes it too complicated, apart from the fact that I don't quite understand what 'spread' means in this context. Most of us responsible gamblers, gamble from time to time, with money we can afford and have no problem with it. I would even say that every type of responsible gambler has had some session or some day where they got out of hand and ended up losing more than they expected but that then didn't affect their life and they continued to gamble only once in a while with money they can afford to play with.

Sometimes, the gambling talk gets tangled up in jargon like ‘spread,’ and it can feel a bit much. But at the core, I agree with your point.
It’s all about playing within our means, isn’t it? Most of us are here for the thrill, the fun, and the chance to win, but always with that golden rule in mind, only bet what you can afford to lose.

The world has gone full digital, there really isn't any way to effectively mitigate the spread of gambling except you want to take away civilization, and IIRC gambling have been in existence since the ancient ages, the only way to get through it, is to go through. I'm not saying everyone should or must gamble to understand the risk and societal perception about gambling but quick education and gamble awareness is best way to stop it. It's just like how sex education are being applied to be thought in the early enough stages of school programs so that young ones can understand everything, pros and cons, dos and don'ts that are associated with sex at their pre puberty stages, the same thing would be the most effective way to curb gambling menace. Once there is a proper general education being passed around their gambling isn't a get rich quick scheme or a job at such, the closer we'll be to eradicating gambling addiction.

Yeah, you are right, there are more negative impacts of gambling than positive ones. If we look back, we could see gambling was used for pleasure and joy. Friends and many other people came to casinos to spend some time and play some games, and that's why at that time gambling was not as destructive as it is in today's time. In my view, all the problems start from financial issues. Those people who come to gamble to fulfill their financial needs cause more problems in society. When they lose all their savings and money, they resort to stealing money from other people, which leads to crimes and other illegal activities. So, if you want to gamble, you must find some other source of income and never depend solely on gambling to support your finances.

By my understanding gambling is fun and a source of entertainment, but there are other negativities attached to gambling,which are, financial issues among the families of a gambler an addiction towards gambling.

No matter the fun and  the entertainment gambling bring to the society, for me the negative impact of gambling in the society is more than the positive impact it brings to the society.

Yup, i do agree that the disadvantage of gambling outweighs the advantage of taking part of it, i mean there is so much cons to gambling that it could ruin family relationship as anything that involves money could ruin the family. As i gambler myself, i just see to it that i don't go beyond my limit so as to not compromise my personal budget. Bottom line, gamble only when you have the time and excess money.

From there is born that which with great pride I could say that it is Better to spend the money that you are willing to lose, having that as a base is the main brake so that cases of addiction do not occur and also would be guaranteeing the enjoyment and to get all the coins of a person, because above all we are human beings, repressing emotions caused by the game is not so Pleasant, because we will always be left with desire for more , and necessary to win more, but once you spend what you have to spend in a game session you must Appeal to the discipline and responsibility of not depositing more money, that is the secret until now I have not found another more effective method of self-control.

Well, I believe that when it comes to the advantages and disadvantages of gambling, which one outweighs the other is up to the gambler. This means that the advantages and disadvantages of gambling are assessed on an individual basis. This is why, when the question of whether gambling should be banned or not arises, people do not speak in unison. While some enjoy gambling, others regret their involvement.

However, regardless of the gamblers, I agree with you on the importance of not exceeding a gambling budget. This should be encouraged among gamblers because it is an antidote to problematic and excessive gambling.

Ways to mitigate the spread of gambling in the society:
*Managing your time - preventing problem gambling, is to manage your time very well and enjoy sport without gambling by taking a break. According to Canadian lower risk gambling guidelines recommendation, reduce your gambling to know more than four days a month can significantly reduce your risk.

Actually when you put your title into GAMBLING EXPERT means they know well what they are doing  specially in their time spending and decisioning .
but that does not mean they keep winning because even experts experienced losses.

they are just good in handling their funds when to stand the table and when to stay.

*Managing your finance - preventing problem gambling is to manage your finance effectively and safeguarde it. Order procedures to manage your money: set limit, keep record, don't borrowing, and stay as planned. That's my opinion.

even how good you are in financing but you cannot control your eagerness to gamble means you earn nothing but losses.
know first to control your desires .
