I've been gambling for almost 10 years now, I used to be an addict to poker and other card games but now I do gamble Occasionally. Normally, If others heard about gambling they'll probably be saying bad things about it *which is a fact*. Though, based from my own experiences. Gambling do benefits me in a way, especially Mentally and Emotionally. Mentally, As a teenager who started to gamble at the age of 15. I don't care about losing, I don't value money. But as I grow, Gambling did really change my perspective towards money and decision making. I became more mature and I must say that I did enhance my strategic awareness. Emotionally, I must say that gambling did really control my temper. I don't why, but whenever I play poker my state of mind became so calm. Even after I lose or win I'm calm and happy. At the age of 19, I learn how to control myself. Mistakes are part of our life which really is good set back for a good comeback!.
How about you guys? What are the benefits you get from Gambling?
But, I highly suggest not to become addict to this industry.
Yes, you are right when you say that in gambling you almost don't value money. I have experienced that also because i also gamble but not in card games. The only benefit that i could say is that i learned to control my temper. If i win, i would be happy and if i lose, i don't mind that. I try not to be sad because i lose. Other than that, there are no benefits in gambling that i could share. In gambling you win some and you lose more. Try to avoid it because it does not do good to a person, that is based on my own experience.
