Gambling Still Bad Stigma Why?

[jjgold]

I’m still known as the gambler in the neighborhood and that’s obviously a negative comment

But if someone smokes weed and some of my neighbors do they’re cool

Wrong message

[Mackballs]

Heroin more accepted than gambling

[Otters27]

Drugs gambling and alcohol are looked down upon because from other people's perspective you can't be counted on because the addiction will always come first

[thetrinity]

Maybe. Gambling more acceptable now with DraftKings fanduel and mgm commercials on nonstop. Let’s put it this way, if you don’t know a serious gambler personally, you may rationalize it’s not as big a deal

[pavyracer]

Look at jjgold. He is expanding his vocabulary.

Jj: say no to drugs is always a good healthy choice. You need to get a brand new sportscar with a custom plate "Big winner". get some new suits too
your neighbors will instantly think you are a big shot

[JayLA]

Because we could do so much more with our money and most of are losers, despite what you might tell yourself

[OldBill]

[jjgold]

man all great answers so far

impressed

The reason why gambling is still a bad stigma is because of gambling addicts who commit suicide after losing everything. Don't kill yourself, use money management and flat bet or quit gambling. Don't steal money from your family member.

As long as there are guys like Brock Landers, gambling will always be a black eye

[d2bets]

Bad stigma according to who?

I don't see that. All positive now with legalized betting. If you know how to game the sites and win, you can be a rockstar. Shit, it can probably even get you laid.

Corbin, I got a way for you to make $100.

If you come to Monmouth Park next weekend:
a) I'll pay for your travel expense.
b) All you have to do is 20 minutes stand-up ala Rodney Dangerfield.

Then you get to enjoy rest of the day. I'll give you $100 cash.

$100 chump change

Why are you going to Monmouth next weekend?

[Optional]

Bad stigma at your local church maybe.

As half the congregation checks the early game lines on their phones.

$100 chump change

Why are you going to Monmouth next weekend?

Take the deal. All expenses paid and $100 cash. Now figure out how much you lose every weekend gambling and you will see it's a heck of a deal. You will be in plus money for the first time in your life on a Monday morning and won't have to reload again.

[risKingDigits]

Every human at some point, has gambled on a fart and lost.

how do your neighbors know you gamble?

When they see all the broken TVs in the trash disposal and Amazon truck coming in every month with a new replacement.

Anything you abuse is bad; anyone who abuses you is evil. Good times for the non abusers.
