Can gambling be taken as a family business?

[Didia Sofunichi]

 Personally I have seen families engage in illicit businesses, some in drugs and others pipeline vandalism. So I was wondering if gambling can be a family business passed from one generation to another.

Casino owners passes their business to their son's of course this is when their dead so he's it can be a family business.

But if you mean like father becomes a gambler and then the son learned to gambler because fahter is the role model in the family, I think it happens most of the time in a society where gambling isn't a secret. Idk if it looks sad to you but sometimes I see a son bringing coffee and snack to his father playing cards. It could be that they are supportive to their father 😁

This is very bad. Gambling should not be taken as a business because you can not win the house after a long time gambling. Such people will be losing and may likely be in dept.

Gambling as a family business will be something else because I don't see the possibility of families passing down and practicing gambling as a business because gambling can't be considered as a business that will give profits because gambling is charactarized by high rate of uncertainty which makes gambling a risky business to even start with so any family who considers making gambling as a family business is running on a risky road because gambling has really cause a lot of problems so should not be considered as a family business

It is indeed bad. So it's reasonable to really ban gambling that Muslims I guess knew what they are doing.But then for us who loves freedom, it's in the gray area.

Unfortunately gambling fathers are common in poor countries. It must be psychological for family members because they are dependent to the father.  But they learn the business and then all the stuff revolves around gambling from selling cigarettes and coffee to gamblers down to providing loan to gamblers.

For the purpose of clarity, I don't mean owning a casino or gambling shop, I mean a family depending on gambling or become gamblers for a living

There's nothing wrong with owning a casino that you inherited from parents, it's just like any other business but if it has been running unregulated then you can proceed to comply the regulation and no need to worry about it any more.

Just like any other business running a casino is not a joke, it is not going to keep generating revenue, you always have to keep updated for that you need to educate yourself about running a casino.

This actually depends on how gambling is being regulated in every country or I mean depends on you literally like is it forbidden on your religion, culture and stuff. Some countries prohibit gambling therefore it obviously is illegal to make it a family business in there. Here in my country since it is not illegal anyone who has the ability to fund a gambling business then they can as long as it is compliant to the governments regulation but if you are to asked me if ever I had a chance to acquire a gambling business permit I would personally say "no" because I don't even promote gambling though I gambled before but I already refrain myself from doing it again.

Think about how a certain activity, or a habit that is seen as being good or bad is passed down thru generations of a family. When we are thinking of gambling this of course will depend with how it has been regarded and practised by individuals in the family itself. Some families may consider it as a profitable business, although like any business, it comes with a lot of risks when undertaken with full awareness and good boundary setting and risk management practises. However, regardless of what circumstances and what intentions individuals can have continuing something within a family, every decision can and should always be based upon whose health, and what values ​​of the next generation is to be preserved. As for such things, this really all depends what each family has as its approach to living the fullest.

This will not happen in all cases. There are many family members whose main source of income is the gambling business. They may not gamble but may work in gambling management. And those who have become established gambling business are likely to have this business in the family. If you own a gambling company, then it is natural that one of your heirs will take over that responsibility after your death. Something extraordinary can happen there. However, there is no guarantee that the children or heirs of those who are gamblers will also be gamblers.

I do not mean owning a gambling or casino shop, I mean engaging in gambling as gamblers. Can a family depend on gambling as a source of livelihood?

I guess it can be done if they treat it like any other career in the family. I've seen a family of gamblers but, in most cases, I don't think it's intentional to teach the kids how to gamble. I learned how to play card and other games that puts bet on the table from watching relatives during occasions.

If you are the gambler, you are only wasting youe time because gambling will not give you profit. However, if you own a casino, that's a good business and you can use it as the family investment from one generation to the other.

I'm not sure taking gambling as a family business is advisable. Gambling has side effects, and if as a father, a gambler and wants his children to be gamblers all through, then their future might become blur, seeing everything to be on a 50/50 chances.

But if the father owns a gambling site or club, then it can be inherited by the son or daughter as a business, continuing from the footsteps of the father. This will lead to more illicit things, as that's the line gambling trails on as a business.

Are you talking about gambling? Or are you talking about gambling companies or gambling online sites?

And whatever it is, I don't think there is any illicit business here. Gambling is a source of entertainment, but it is safe as long as it is not directed at underaged people and as long as it doesn't become an addiction. Now, if the casino business is chosen as a family business, I wouldn't call it bad. However, all of them must be done legally so as not to go against any regional laws.
