There really is no need to mention how much you're spending to gamble. That's a private matter that shouldn't be known by the others but if someone is okay to share how much they're spending every week or every month for gambling, that's okay as well as there is no problem with those people that are just happily sharing how much they gamble. Now with yours, that 10% is quite high if your salary is also high.
Using less than 10% is more than enough for me to gamble, and I can use it several times, which can give me pleasure in gambling. And it's true. We don't need to tell anyone how much allocated funds we use for gambling because that is our personal secret when playing gambling. We also have to be careful in managing our money for gambling and, as much as possible, not deposit more money just because we lost a certain amount of dollars.
Yeah, stick to what is on your plan when you gamble because you're not going to know how it is going to be when you're able to pass on that budget for your gambling activities. We've heard a lot of stories that it didn't do well on them when they set like 5%-10% of their monthly salary and when they've lost, they think that it's fine to add some more because they will be able to recover it. That's a wrong thinking and just take a loss, as a total loss and you'll never recover it. Always start with a fresh budget that you're not going to regret losing it. Because that's how gambling is right? and we keep on telling to gamble only what people can afford to lose so there won't be any regret at the end.
As that 10% of your salary and with that style of gambling, you're not forcing yourself to do so. You are just casually doing it and that's the fun there, you are not forced and pressured to take some of the goals that others are setting. If you lose, then you lose and you're not going to force yourself into recovery for which that may take another slice of your salary.
As long as you don't make yourself obliged to recover the amounts that you've lost and you're free in doing that so, that's the type of gambler that you're like free and worry-free. We don't have to be aggressive when we gamble and if we're aware of our gambling habits, and we're far from being aggressive, I'd say that you're doing it rightly.
Yes, I will never force myself to gamble excessively again because it is useless. I feel that I should always control myself when it comes to gambling because I don't want to lose a lot. If we lose, I will immediately end the gambling game and will not decide to continue gambling because that could increase the number of my losses. And I also don't want to deposit any more money because that could trigger me to gamble excessively.
That's the better mindset, when you lose, you better stop already and that tells what it is for your day. You don't chase, you don't recover because you'll never know what comes next and it might be worse than your current result. It is all about how you control yourself and I hope that majority of the gamblers will be able to control themselves to avoid bad situations that can end up broken relationships and mostly, being broke.
Trying to gamble casually means I don't lose much money because I try to restrain myself from gambling. I don't want to experience more losses because it would hurt to see a lot of money lost at the gambling table. It's better for me to continue gambling casually and not use a lot of money than to experience more losses that I can't afford.
This is thinking of safety first, all you have to do is not to gamble when results aren't positive and at the same time, you just don't feel you wanna gamble when you don't have money. Don't let the urge wants you to gamble when you don't have money, that's the first rule that anyone can set and that is not to gamble when you have no money, a very simple logic and rule.
