Most of the topics we read are mostly mentioning about the negative side of gambling but I think we also discuss the positives of it...
1. Socialization
2. Income Generation
3. Employment
4. Support to the Gambling Industry
We've seen a lot of things enough to consider why gambling must exist. Maybe we just correct our views that gambling is bad because this also helps other people. We don't just focus on the bad things like addiction and debts that a person may commit by being an irresponsible gambler but also, must see the benefits it gives to the community and in our personal lives.
Yes, gambling is a form of entertainment that is increasingly popular nowadays. Even though gambling has many risks, there are several positive impacts that we or the gamblers might feel.
The first is winnings/bonuses, because basically many online gambling sites offer bonuses to their players, such as free spins or other special offers. This bonus can also greatly increase players' chances of winning prizes or adding value to the gambling balance itself.
secondly, there are social opportunities, although gambling is an individual activity, gambling platforms often provide a platform for communication or social interaction. So, players can interact with other players. This can also create a community or group among players and increase the social aspect.
So maybe my conclusion is that online gambling can indeed have several positive impacts, such as being able to get wins/bonuses, social accessibility and perhaps many other positive impacts. However, it is very important for us to remember that negative impacts will also be serious. Such as addiction, financial problems, mental health, family problems and others. With that, each individual must be responsible for managing gambling itself. They themselves must be able to realize the risks of gambling. If they still choose to involve themselves in gambling, it is important to apply the principles of knowing the limits for gambling, following the principles responsibly, being ready to win but also being ready to lose, and always playing wisely or not exceeding the limits.
