I don't think so o o o. This betting issue is just like a business or work to me. Because it involves mental task. I do bet and win. Sometimes, it takes me the whole night to forecast for the following day.

when i look at the young ones going into gambling/betting,i just feel pity for them.
most of you be like the footbal pool players of old,that wear glasses moving
from one pool office to the other with nothing to show for it.

betting is gambling and its as addictive as heroin.
it has ruined the lives of many people in the western world.

That's the key. I got this friend that will want to use N500 to win N9 Million...... he'll pick 24 games, in the end 2 games will ruin his ticket.

I'm always like..... why don't you pick less games since you're so good with predictions...but noo..... my guy wan chop big.

I wouldn't say its good or bad cos many have benefitted and lost from it as well.The quality of a good gambler is just to know when to take a walk so that you don't have to borrow money to go home.

the mind knows what is Good and what is Bad...
If u are doing someone Good you... won't even ask Questions like ..
Why do I help him/her?..
U dig..

There you go again..

A woman saw her husband's laptop was dirty..she took it and washed it...she meant well and according to your ideology she didn't need to ask questions...
U don't just gather all you feel you know and term it reality... You must ask questions

Seriously, what's so bad or immoral about betting?
I don't think Betting and gambling are the same thing. to me, 'betting' sounds way cooler than 'gambling'

I don't know where people get the notion that gambling leads people to hell I don't see anything wrong in it. Its just like every other thing in life where you loose some, and you win some.
I just made 5k from betting in the barca and arsenal match, and my mum was like "Christians don't bet" and she ended up eating from the money undecided

so I really want to know why its bad.

Wait until late you gamble away your car house shirt on your back then you'll know how bad it is

Re: Is Betting/gambling Really That Bad? by Chukzyfcb(m): 9:59pm On Mar 17, 2016
Thetruth is Gambling can be addictive. Yu win 1k and next you are planning how to win 10,000 andd then 1,000,000....soon you become a lover of money and would break any moral ethics to get "the mulla".....Remember, the Love of Money is the root of all Evil. Soon you'll experience losses after losses, and the urge to bounce back can lead you to destruction.....Gambling isn't an Investment!!!
****************************************
When yu Invest, you buy something of VALUE that can be traded back for money
***************************************
When you gamble, you BUY A CHANCE to earn money and nothing of VALUE, you see the difference
****************************************
But in the end, we all gamble in this life even Unknowingly lool.

Sunnycliff:
Same meaning but different words.
Proverbs 28:20 A faithful man shall abound with blessings: but he that maketh haste to be rich shall not be innocent.
Proverbs 28:22 He that hasteth to be rich hath an evil eye, and considereth not that poverty shall come upon him.

God does not support it.

Don't' worry, continue to gamble.

Time will surely tell.

Eni to oba nta tete ma nte ni. Meaning, gamblers will always be put to shame.
