what is the impact of gambling on students?

[$crypto$]

Some consider the student period a very important period for development with quite big responsibilities where the main goal is to study and take well the results for the better life later. But everyone’s in a different place and have different opportunity given where they come from and things they decide to do. Nevertheless, walking that tightrope between exploring the multitude of experiences and prioritising your growth is what makes a person develop in the way he should. Any situation has more long lasting benefits to building skills and taking every bit of time available rather than just having fun for a while.

That's right, things are always very good when analyzed from that point of view, but when one is at that stage and one is fully aware of what each thing means, what it can lead and what it can entail in the future, obviously an activity like studying and becoming a professional will always open doors much more easily, because there is respect, with a person who takes up an activity that they like, it is up to them to decide whether that will serve them Throughout their life, their future and what it will mean, that is why the best decisions have to be made at that stage.

That's right. I think everyone has a very good thought for their future, and they will also start to think about making good decisions for their future too.

But the problem is that sometimes they ignore it too much, for example when they are in the stage of making a decision, they will prefer something more comfortable that even has nothing to do with it at all. This is usually what I call a comfort zone that must be left behind.

However, it’s important to distinguish between harmful gambling behaviors and responsible, structured engagement in prediction markets or skill-based games. Platforms like Betron Markets aim to shift the narrative by focusing on fairness, transparency, and balance, ensuring no one wins it all or loses it all. These types of platforms are not about exploiting users but creating an environment where people can enjoy prediction-based activities without the extreme risks that traditional gambling often involves.

All gambling platforms are all the same they are profit oriented so as far as gambling platforms are concern they are thesame gambling has a great effects on students it's not good for students in what so ever reason to gamble as it can impact negatively on the student which will in turn affect the students performance, I will not encourage any student to partake in gambling activities while in school because gambling can actually lead to unstable funds in part of the student and make the student to lose concentration on the part of the studies so students should be discouraged from gambling activities

Yeahs, and I agree gambling isn’t good for students. It can mess up their focus, drain their money, and even affect their mental health. Students should focus on their studies and building a better future, not risking what little they have on gambling. It’s just not worth it.

Even if a student does not gamble, other activities can distract them. A student's life is full of distractions, so he or she must maintain high levels of focus in order to either accommodate those distractions and perform well or avoid them.

Any gambler who can manage those distractions and perform well will not face any difficulties in gambling because he will be able to gamble while studying. A student can gamble only when he has free time and then set aside time for studies.

Gambling can help improve on mental balance if the student are doing it responsibly and for fun, but they must not be addicted in it and also not have too much of their time on it, likewise, gambling should not affect their other academic engagements, they may have to limit how often or frequent they are gambling in other for them not to divert their interest as well at the cause of studying on gambling.

The more a student gambles, the more his interest in gambling will increase. That is why a limitation should be set in gambling. Gambling can be done during the student's life if there is no thought of earning excessive money. I will not say that a student cannot conduct his academic activities if he gambles. A gambler cannot always study, but if he gambles as a temporary entertainment along with his studies, then I do not think he has much to lose.

Academic performance is the major area of concern, where students are not advised to gamble because it can affect them in having good grades, to begin to focus more on money than their education.

Gambling as a student has its destruction and distractions to one's life. Many have become school dropouts and lose their sanity all because of gambling. They gamble with the thought of becoming rich, and they later become addicted to gambling, which leads them to be ready to risk and gamble all they have for gambling

Anything we engage in including gambling should still be controlled in such a way that it interferes with the normal functioning of life. If the above top priorities can be upheld and honoured then certainly any activity that assumes the temporary role of entertainment can definitely be dealt with without detrimental consequence. But at the same time, we must remain wise for the habit does not turn into a thing that controls time and one’s mind. By controlling our emotions and always following priorities that contain important things in the future, one can be sure that the chosen actions will not be pivotal when regretting.

Those who took that path when I studied, currently have to do very hard, very tough jobs, it is honestly something they have to do to earn a living, for them it was easier to work in any other thing than to study, and well at the beginning everything went well for them, but over time, we get older and we need to work but not at the same level as when we are 15, 16 and have all the energy, something more comfortable, but for them currently at almost 40 or more, they have to do jobs that are already very difficult to endure.

This is part of preparing for the future, and preparing for the future cannot be done comfortably, but perhaps we have to do something more or harder than teenagers of the same age.

Indeed, some people may get lucky when living a better life even though they were not able to get out of their comfort zone during school, but we also have to compare them with people who are not more successful. and sometimes someone from the start already has privileges from their family.

Unlike gambling, some of these distractions do not have significant financial implications. It is commonly believed that a student is not a worker, and while there may be exceptions, the majority are not employed and thus are dependents. For a dependant to gamble means that they are depriving themselves of certain things which is actually not a good practice.

When the deprivations become too great, the gambler may become frustrated. These frustrations could be the result of not purchasing a textbook and thus being unable to study for a test or write an assignment, resulting in a lack of continuous assessment (CA) because the money was spent on gambling. This will affect a student's score regardless of his intelligence.

You're right, many times experiences of all kinds are good for the formation of our being, sometimes as professionals we know what the movement is like in some aspects of life, on the street, in places like casinos, clubs, all that is good that we live it, to know how to behave within these places, to know how to deal with the people there, on the street too, everything is good, however, as you say, some who do not leave their comfort zone do not live these experiences, it helped me a lot, I do not deny that I loved going to the casino , it is the best.

Sometimes that's what makes us understand the current situation better, even though some activities may be labeled as bad by some people, but that's what makes us more flexible.

I always hear advice from my parents, don't be picky about friends when hanging out, but we ourselves must have boundaries about what is good to do and what is not. Honestly, it makes me know more things that maybe if it wasn't like that I wouldn't know at all.

We are what we hang out with. Spend all time with slackers and gamblers, you will become a gambler. Spend time with smart people, you will get smarter, whenever you want it or not. A person will try to stay with everyone on the same level and it will motivate him to be better.

While being a student, it is best to surround yourself with excellent students, and it wont be a problem if they gamble or not, as they will always find time to study.

We do know that its not really that bad to gamble, it is really just that when things becomes excessive then this is where things do start to get messed up. For in talks about impact on gambling then it will be really be just that an individual kind of problem because it is really just that too impossible that you cant be able to distinguish in correlation with good and bad on which on the time that you are wary on such aspect then you will really be that acting out accordingly. There are really just that those people who are really that despite of being knowledgeable but they do let themselves tolerate out the bad.
