- HOW GAMBLING AND BETTING DESTROYS US
Human beings are naturally greedy and love quick fixes. Those who do not manage to suppress this propensity end up being robbers, drug dealers, thieves, crooks, prostitutes and many other ill means of getting wealth.
It would be interesting to note that most people would like to earn a lot with very little input. That is what scammers prey on and that is the main reason people engage in gambling and betting because we want to earn big with little as our input.
The idea of easy money and the excitement to win or lose over the outcome of the placed bet is what seems to have the people hooked to these addictive activities of lottery, gambling, and betting. My quick take on these is that despite this not being an outright sin, desist because they are addictive and a lot of people lose their money and only a few win. That is the only reason why they exist; otherwise, they would be non-existent if more people were winning than losing.
This seems to be an increasing sector and I have seen influencers endorsing different betting, gambling, and lottery companies. I have been approached to do the same, but I wouldn’t endorse something that is against what I stand for and I know how others have lost all they had.
A few days ago, news covered a young man who committed suicide after losing school fees given to him. One man lost capital for his business through betting. I know one other gentleman who depleted family savings through gambling. These are just three stories among many others that have led to a regrettable ending.
Now listen to this. There is a thin line between entertainment and addiction. Betting, gambling, and lottery are based on chance. Now remember that chance is a game to the wealthy, but chance is a source of hope to the poor. If you have so much wealth and you gamble K1000 on a bet or lottery, then it’s a game because even if you lose, it doesn’t matter. But if you gamble the same K1000 when it is all you have, then you subject your life to chance.
In other words, your life then becomes a game and if you need chance in order to live, then you will be destroyed. Life is not a game. Your life is a serious thing and not a game, so you don’t play with your life.
The takeaway from this topic is that there is no easy route to wealth. In fact, shortcuts are the longest routes to wealth.
Honestly when I started advocating for gambling addiction recovery in Zambia,I never knew this issue would be endorsed by someone like you Dumisani.I thought I was chasing a ghost but now I am 100 percent sure this problem has affected a lot of people in Zambia.Keep shining the light on critical issues affecting the Youths in Zambia.

Your speech is always influential.continue modifying us in a good way.Thank you
Magnate makes us think that gambling is good business... Honestly betting is addictive... My advice to those who are addicted in gambling, please bet what you can afford to lose.. accept any outcome of the bets because winning is not guaranteed.
The radical entrepreneur is a wise man. I am laughing and learning 😂😂
The future is bright
Thanks so much Mr Ncube
My brother lost all the money he hard through gambling and betting
So true,,,,,, people need to wake up and work hard life is not a game
We are together in this 40 days of refining... Indeed let's make our future to be bright.
Very true... A collegue of mine was in management ended up stealing company funds through betting. The addiction is terrible.
Am 2minutes in the video but already learning alot
I like you very much sir. This is true
Thanks for this Mentor!
The future is bright indeed!
I like his videos. Short and streight forward to the point....
Thanks
We’re together Mr Dumisani
I agree, I really need to reevaluate my life
True
Lol Magnate is not going to like this video 😂😂.. but I honestly know that he’s wise enough to not bet and what he does is showcase he’s life that he earned doing other things insinuating he got money through betting and he now earns more by being an affiliate marketer same as forex people….
Bottom line is Betting is bad and even for those who win sooner or later go back to zero as gambling doesn’t teach you the discipline it takes to 马 money ❤
But if you think about it deeply, it seems like any business venture undertaken by a startup has an element of CHANCE and is not guaranteed to succeed. So to me if someone has enough will power to control their greediness they can bet so long as they know when to quit when start getting into problems.
But statistically such people with that quality are a few....so please if you're weak mentally don't bet, you will cry what brought you in there!!!
Cam forex trading or stokes be considered as gambling or betting ? Is it a quick fix scheme too?
Yes and no bro… a sole trader is a gambler only companies with more than one person and multiple investors streams of income are not gambling but for anyone sole trader bro Just Quit
Mr Dumisani any comment on debt or loan is it not a quick fixes also? Am a victim of it.
No! A loan is not a quick fixer! Unless if you use a loan or debt in buying reliability or you sponsor a wedding ceremonies, that one is called a bad debt and it can cost your life if not handled properly, but use a loan as a leverage.
@@aaronbanda4494 okay thanks
Before anyone gets a loan it is very important that they learn discipline… getting a loan to pay for another loan is like digging a hole to get out of a hole…
You’re not advised to start a business with borrowed money but you’re allowed to boost your business with borrowed money provided it’s successful in the first place and getting thst loan had 70% chance of making it back.. im not a financial advisor however 😊
