Chess is a great hobby that helps in mental exercises, and it teaches children how to deal with success and failure.
It is a true fact that Chess was banned in China andIran and it is banned now in Afghanistan.Arab rulers that of ‘Ali Khamenei' felt it as a gambling game and a waste of time. People were getting addicted to it. They were playing chess even at the time for religious Namas. The issue some find with chess is that ones mind is on a small-scale war.
When you lose a game you want to win next and when you win you want to win more.Sometimes you may get overwhelmed by it. And like any passive game there are zero monetory benifit unless you become a novice.People at somepoint do realise all this and may stop playing it all together.
However when played in moderation Chess has many benefits. It helps to keep mind active and protected.You learn to make right strategies and can use the same in life and business.you will even remember intial 5 to 10 moves the more you play and somtimes mind enters cruise control mode,just like driving.
