Do you guys think it's OK to advice other gamblers to quit gambling simply because of your own bad experience, does your bad experience mean that every other gambler out there will also have the same bad experience?
I will like some really useful discussions around this topic.

Well, it's not really bad to give advices to other people because you had a really bad experience about gambling. Though, it may turn out differently for other people who can actually control themselves not to gamble away their life savings or going beyond his budget intended only for gambling, but this kind of advices will somehow serve as reminders that we can get out of control at anytime causing you to lost a lot of money. This story isn't new to any gamblers, we have heard a lot of similar stories about this, but there are still a lot who have lost money excessively.

Hmm, well if you look at the stats, I think it will be obvious that the majority of those that get deeply immersed in gambling had negative effects instead of positive ones. Not all people have strong self-control especially when it comes to the concept of playing with luck. What's really dangerous is that you start small and then you end up spending, or wasting, a big amount in the process. I would advise against excessive gambling but it would still be up to the person I've given advice to if they'll heed. I doubt that my personal losses would be considered as a factor for them to decide not to gamble.

That's the perfect advice for other people rather than giving them an advice not to gamble anymore because we have our own experiences and it depends to us on how we handle our gambling time and spending, right? Also, if you lose at gambling, can you be sure other people will lose too so you can stop them from gambling? it's not, right? because our winnings really depends on luck, strategy and our own destiny. We can't convince others not to gamble or stopping them in participating gambling activities, we can only give them an advice and it's up to them if they will follow it or not.
