Topic: Are you a generous gamblers - page 10. (Read 1469 times)

It's okay to be generous to other people when you have extra money, but we don't need to tell anyone about giving without any strings attached.
I might sometimes, when I have extra money, not even from gambling winnings, usually share little money with relatives or friends who I think are in need of help, but usually I give it without their knowledge so I just leave it to someone else to give it.
the reason I'm like this is because I dont want something to happen that makes everything bad like you said.

anyone can be generous when they win from gambling as sign of gratitude that they are still blessed with good luck today, but in my opinion there is no need to overdo it and don't do it too often because it has a bad impact in the end, as I understand in the OP case, someone who is generous but looks arrogant because he felt he often gave some of the money to friends or relatives.
so when you win, it's okay to have a plan to share some of your money, but don't do it too often.

I don't think that a gambler cannot be generous ever because he is in searching of money only to return his borrowed money to lender and in this way he is getting more and more laon for continuing gambling. Maybe some of them do good deeds but according to my experience I did not saw a single successful person from gambling but there are lots of gamblers who put the lives of their families in troubles.

May be a day come when they regret for their acts but most often they continuously gambling by leaving behind their family members and never think about their happiness. If a person cannot think about his family then how he will think about other relatives?

I think I can class myself as a generous gambler and the reason I say this is because I normally use my gambling wins with a little less easy because for me it's something that I never planned on and it's actually not in my budget so when I do win, I tend to be a shareful about it and that's if someone needs it because I don't go flaunting my wins but the ratio of using it is way more easier than the funds I have worked my ass for that I know very well.

My generosity in gambling doesn't mean I will have to share proceeds of my gambling, if I share my games with you and eventually I won it definitely you are winning aswell so it's a win win for us both then you are definitely not going to say I wasn't generous enough, I feel you will appreciate it much better when you share a part in the risk.

Most persons may want to limit your generosity to when you have to give them some of the money you won off your gambling but fail to recognize that Sharing your games with them is another form of generosity too which should be appreciated any time they are enjoying the proceed of your wins, I personally don't like to share the proceeds of my gambling and I don't feel like I'm not generous for not doing that because a few times I did that, it did created a sense of entitlement amongst a few so I had to stop so they too will learn not to feel entitled for money which was mine and not theirs.

it depends on how much you profit from the casino. if we just win huge profits i would be sending my money to my cousin who asked if he could loan some cash from me. unfortunately, i couldn't just withdraw some BTC for him. it's an investment that i hold on to.

but there was a time i shared my winning with 3 kids who were also at the food stand where i'm eating. i can see they share one plate so i bought another 2 for them. i could say i'm sometimes generous  

Im also not a certain person who do really love on spending money on other people except on my own family on which i make those spendings if ever i do able to win up something
but since im not really that always a winner when i do gamble then i do rarely be able to have those kind of treats into my family. Im not really that a fan on being that generous
and just like on what others been saying that im not that believing into those good karma or being good into others or sharing up something just for you to expect that you
would be able to get some good things in return on which there's no significant connections with those things.

I choose sometimes. I chose this because it depends on what I have😅

I am not a gambling addict, nor do I gamble with a lot of money. So my winnings are also small. However, if I get a big win when playing slots or sports betting, I will certainly treat my friends. However, because this rarely happens, I only do this when I get the jackpot or more money 😅

Looking for karma or not, it's best to do good things sincerely, according to the popular term "What you sow is what you reap." Doing good will come back to each of us, isn't that the law?

Interesting story about your friend, and his response really made me think. Although I don't believe in karma, I understand why he does it I agree with you: Winning is good luck, and sharing it with loved ones is a noble act. But I don't like to make people feel obligated. Perhaps his generosity helps him:He admits his addiction, and his actions mitigate the judgment of others. On the other hand: Not all motives are so pure: Some players use generosity to justify their addiction and avoid criticism. I too sometimes share my good fortune, but I do it because I genuinely want to help others, not because of some philosophy or expectation of something in return. It is important that the giving comes from the heart and does not involve any obligation or manipulation

I am a generous person by nature who likes to help people, but in gambling, I am proud to say that I am not a generous gambler, and never will I be. I must also say that it baffles me with the response of that gambler in the OP, not to mention that he is a pensioner, he should have left gambling by now if I were him. But if he does desire, fine, he might love doing it, but he should have been motivated by a better thing rather than being generous to people. Well, that's the way I see it. If you are generous, why not be generous about what will not be risky, why risk your money always to be generous? I'm confused! I think there is more to this, we are human beings, and it is what we want people to know that they will know, and in some cases, the truth could remain buried in us.

I do not see this as right, he might just like gambling and has been addicted to it but use that to cover up. There are other means you do your social intervention as people might call it, and I wonder how often he wins to be encouraged and emboldened by that at the same time. What about those times he bets and loses, who covers up for the losses? And when he loses, will he be able to do the generosity work? I think that it is ill-conceived. However, the amount he gains compared to the amount he loses in betting will be able to justify this act of his.

I'm not a generous gambler, for me it's nonsense, because the situation I experienced was very annoying, when I gambled they would just laugh, but when I won did they also have to celebrate? I think it depends on the environment and the nature of the neighbors, I think it's better to keep quiet whether you win or lose, so it's hard for them to guess our mood

In my case, I'm not generous because I don't win anything playing, most of the time I'm losing, I play for fun and not for profit, because even if I thought about making a profit, it would be impossible to beat the house in the long term, so when I'm lucky to win, I save the money so that I have more time to play without adding more money to the casino, because if I took the little money I won and donated it, then when I played and lost a lot I would have to deposit more early at the casino and this cycle could lead me to stop playing for a while, so if I stopped for a while I wouldn't donate anything to anyone. So it makes more sense for me to play for fun and not donate anything to anyone

Many people, when they win a lot of money in the lottery, have the habit of donating the money they won and in most cases they end up back in poverty and living on the streets because they lose their home and the most unbelievable thing is that the people they helped completely forget who were helped by those people who won the lottery. I personally have avoided talking about gambling with people from my country and I also avoid making donations to people, I sometimes do it for people I don't know. This is because I am aware that it is difficult for people who donate to give back when one day those who gave them money are in a very bad situation in life.

If I am given the opportunity to win at the gambling that I do, why don't I share a little of my winnings with other people, so that other people can also feel the pleasure and pleasure that I get?

But when it comes to sharing, winning or not winning in the gambling that I do, I always try to be able to give to people who need it, even if it's just a little. Because at least even though the help I provide cannot solve the problem he is facing, at least I can help lighten his burden a little. Because if I have to wait to win first, then I can share it with other people, then when will I be able to do good, remembering that winning at gambling is not an easy thing for us to achieve, unless we are really lucky. And when it comes to life, the best person is someone who can benefit others, even if only a little.

I'm sure everyone is generous when they win in the lottery or any kind of gambling, but gambling doesn't always mean winning, so if I see my friend treating me to a meal because he won at gambling, I will be happy, but what I'm worried about is that behind his generosity could be just changes, for example if he doesn't win or experiences defeat or goes bankrupt and becomes addicted to gambling he will definitely bring up his previous kindness and generosity.

It's best not to get into the habit of accepting the kind offers of our friends or neighbors when we win gambling because it's possible that the winnings are only temporary and will end up being a hassle for us later when they go bankrupt and lose a lot of money, so they try to borrow money from us by convincing us that they can win with the borrowed money, if we refuse it, they will definitely bring up their previous kindness, that's why I don't really get into the habit of accepting offers from my friends, whatever it is if they win at gambling, sometimes maybe accepting the offer just to respect them, I personally if winning gambling always treats my friends too but never tells them that I won gambling and only tells them I get a bonus from my job.  

Not all gamblers would really be that generous and would really be loving on soloing their wins rather than on sharing up. Not all would really be believing about karma
or whatsoever as long they could be able to have or acquire money then they would really be the ones who would really be spoiling themselves and buying all the
things that they do like. This is really actually that situational basis because not all would really be winners and be generous. Only a few or could only be counted off
into those conditions on which we know that majority will really be losers and wrecked up themselves on gambling.

I have seen some crazy rains in various chats of casinos where people wanted to share with the rest when they had a crazy big win. I remember one time I got about 0.05 ETH from a high roller after he scored a big win on dice. So it happens but maybe less than before?

I also do that, when I win at gambling I share my winnings with my friends by treating them to food and drink,  but there are also some of my friends who ask for my winnings in the form of money  because they themselves are interested in gambling. can give me victory but I don't give it because I think if I'm like that then it's the same as opening the door for them to difficulty because the wins I get are only occasional.

because sometimes I feel happy when I see my friends laughing because they get together. The pleasure increases,  not only does winning make me happy,  but their laughter also makes me happy therefore,  in my opinion, there is no harm in treating friends because I think there is a point of happiness in itself.

I do share my wins with my friends and family, because I see it as free money and I feel happy when I share part of it with my closed ones to assist them at that moment. Actually, I don't tell them that I got it from gambling because I don't want them to know where the source of the money came from. It gives me joy to put a smile on their faces with my win, since my win is like an extra cash which I never expected. If I don't share 50% of it, I feel that I will not be lucky to win more. This is because when you give them, they are happy and they will say so many good words to you that I think will bring more luck to you.

Honestly, I don't think I am. Since my winning in gambling doesn't come regularly but instead once in a while.
Each time I win, I use the amount won, in subtraction from the amount lost even though I bet with the amount I can afford to lose.

That's how many people perceived their bet-winning to be "a blessing" in the sense that, they will use the amount won to solve their problems.
It can be mind-fulfilling when someone gives generously to their friends who are in financial need. Some people are natural givers, they feel happy about that. The moment they have money in their hands, they will like to share it with their friends no matter how little is.

I don't think I am a generous gambler, because I personally have never had the chance to be one by hitting a jackpot or having a specially good gambling session. Though, leaving that to one side, if I had the chance to be generous to my family members I would certainly do it by inviting them to have dinner or gifting them some pretty clothes to them, things which would make clear I care about them and I am trying to be good to them, but not expensive enough for them to start to speculate I won the lottery or something similar.

By the way, the story of this person you talk about is very incredible, most of people involved in gambling would never even consider to share their winnings with others, I mean, I have even seen people so addicted to gambling who would not even be willing to withdraw their small winnings, but decide to continue to gamble recklessly. I hope that person someday decides to quit gambling, because you imply he is addicted, and nobody who consider them else's to be addicted is supposed to remain gambling in a casino, whatsoever.

Interesting but no. I am generous in my own way. I think these two are different, I would treat some of my friends whenever I have  excess money and not only because I won in gambling. Also treating other people on my end is with moderation and if they are reciprocating it back if not equally, at least sometimes. I don't want them making friends with me because of such feat which is what I avoid. There are times I would be inviting them and times I don't. It is simply subjective and we are not required to do so. If you are a gambler or an individual who is not into generosity then you have your own reason. It won't make you a bad person but of course a good friend to those who knows how to appreciate. If you are also being choosy of people then that is as well fine.
Yes, every attitude is prone to abuse especially if it is being good to other people. Sometimes you could be generous as well to yourself and that rings the same attitude. What's bad is to require other people to do it to you if you yourself don't. All of us are into reciprocation unless if it is with your loved ones that you just want to be a 'provider' to them.
