What do you think are other reasons why gamblers may choose to stop gambling while they are aging?

There are several things that can be considered why someone stops gambling when they are old, including finances that cannot be stable, because old age is very difficult to find work or income, a family that is no longer with gambling, more concerned with time with family and enjoying life without gambling, and finally he returns to his god, because some religions prohibit gambling and consider gambling to be a wrong act, because people who think old that he will die and return to his god and want to atone for his sins by stopping all forms that are considered wrong in his teachings, that is the most core answer from me.

Family will be the reason why they decide to stop gambling. They don't want to show that they lose control in gambling while their kids grow up and married and they have grand children. They may feel that it is not good when their grandchildren see their grandpa playing gambling and lose the money while actually, their grandpa can use that money to buy their favorite food or drinks.

When someone getting old, he may thinks about religion and realize that he doesn't have much time to live with his family. They can also quit gambling because of their religion and don't want to use their time to chase many things in this world and want to closest to their GOD before they die.

I think that is quite the most logical and wise reason in seeing why those who have started to age stop gambling, because of the impact of what they see and think about old age and having to be a role model for their offspring, needing good things to emulate, then they want to not do it anymore because it has become a definite prohibition, that will be the most important thing.

I know an old gambler and he said that too yesterday, he felt that he was no longer able to make money and just rely on his son, so there was no way he was gambling using his son's sweat, and fortunately it made him realize that he would also return to his god sooner or later.

Gamblers will only stop from gambling when they don’t have sufficient funds to gamble anymore. Or they feel they have been losing a lot but never make significant gains. Also, when gamblers reach retirement age, their emotions are not so flexible anymore so instead of gambling and going home frustrated due to losses, they will spend their time doing their hobbies and favorite activities together with their loved ones. I think your mindset when it comes to gambling also changes when you are aging.

Most gamblers retire when they are completely bankrupt and don't have any more capital to gamble, that's where they stop. From several analyzes a gambler who has never made a profit will definitely be frustrated and regret what they have done now. therefore they spend a lot of time continuing their hobbies to avoid falling fundamentals that have drained their finances.
I don't think there are gamblers who retire as they get older but don't have the funds to bet anymore, they will automatically retire with their financial situation, they don't think anymore with common sense, we hope that we will get more profits, even though it is the opposite.

Age is not a factor in gambling. Most of the time, gamblers shift their thinking towards careers or passionate activities just to get rid of the losses out of gambling. It isn't an easy thing to simply get out of gambling and make ourselves better. When a person starts to experience financial difficulty, he thinks about moving on, because being on it is going to drag him downward and doesn't allow him to progress in life. Gambling is not a never-give-up thing, as like one's hard work to reach his dream company or some kind of achievement he had thought. People who are lucky gamble continuously, whereas the person who experiences loss realises it and concentrates on family and other development processes. Some get addicted and end their lives, and the right one takes a break, settles the family and all commitments, and once again, with limits, starts in their retirement life.

Apart from the above, I think the main reason why people try to get rid of gambling is that as they get older they can't handle the stress of gambling. There are some who give up gambling when they are old enough to stay physically fit. Some may follow religious restrictions. But a person is usually not able to get rid of gambling easily until he can afford it. However, there are many gamblers who are willing to gamble even after getting older, they don't accept gambling for financial income and many are old even though they have sufficient sources of income and do not feel the normal pressure on them. Above all if the gambler is willing to gamble on his own then nothing can stop him from gambling. However, it is best to give up gambling when the age over the normal range.

A Bitcoiner chooses. A slave obeys.

With age comes wisdom, which is true for most people but we really need to stop thinking with the mindset of "too old for (insert thing here)" nonsense. Everyone is different and everyone grows up mentally at different rates. And to say something is immature or childish makes no sense, since that thing might only be childish from one persons perspective but not someone elses.

Same goes for gambling. I mean sure, if you gamble long enough you might get tired of it but consider the people who discover gambling later in life.

In the meantime, I want to discuss the reality that a gambler can reach the age where he doesn't want to gamble anymore. When we start aging our priorities in life start changing. We get to have more responsibilities in our hands. Remembering the extent to which we gamble when we are youth it is observed that gambling can be more appealing during our youth stage. But it's less when we get older.

The reason why most persons stop gambling while aging is because of financial security which I mentioned earlier about taking responsibilities, being focused on their family, retirement, and other life goals which gambling may not be important at this stage of life.

I'm not sure about that at all, to be honest. Many people betting on horse racing are old, many people gambling at casinos are old, and many people participating to national lotteries are old too, so I think many people gamble till their death, they maybe don't bet on the same sports or the same games, because the tastes change during your life and you feel certainly less connected with sports practiced by people way younger than you in your old years.

Old age will make you not enjoy the fun in gambling anymore, because you will not derive pleasure in it. The moment you don't have appetite for gambling, you will not see it entertaining anymore. There are a lot of things that will be put aside at old age, because it's not what you want at that time. However, if you are the type that gambling is your hobby, you can continue gambling when you are old since you are still enjoying it and do it for fun, to keep you away from boredom.

old age does allow more thinking to be directed at other things such as utilizing or looking for other activities that do not involve money but can make us happy, what you said is true, when old age is felt then gambling is no longer an entertainment because of the clear risk that will occur it might make you realize that it is no longer something that must be done to find pleasure, but whether with those who are billionaires, maybe they still make gambling an activity to find entertainment or pleasure.
But I think there are people who are old and still make gambling an active activity, that doesn't matter to me as long as they have a lot of money or what I mentioned earlier is a billionaire.

When some game's are taken as a hobby that level, regardless of the age and time, one will fine those games pleasurable to play, and for sure securing an environment that compliment your personality is kind of a big deal and for sure alot need to be taken into consideration while dealing with that, but majority's of the older people who gamble, they basically do so for just fun and not the money involved, and that is why you will fine them in the free games corners, because they won't want to risk they money on betting on game's at that time.

Then it's just as ugly to see that we're old and we're still gambling. Even if we say we are just enjoying the time we have in this world.

I think with this thought, if you think that it's ugly when we're already older and we still gamble, that's okay.

We have to mind our own things with this and if we're not bothering other people, other people's money, there is nothing ugly there as long as it is our money that we use for gambling.

And we're not solely addicted to it, look at most of the physical casinos, who are those mainstays there, the oldies because they've got money to spend, to gamble.

You have pretty much mentioned everything that I can possibly think of, but however, this is one part that you perhaps, forgot to mention, some aging people sometimes, or most time in and out of hospitals every day,, some are going for medical checkup, others are going to medications doe ailment and so on, someone with health issues to worry about likely will not even remember a thing or activity called gambling exists, even if he or she has been a gambler in their younger days.

So, the above is also one of the reasons why aging people may likely quit gambling. And let me say that health issues may not likely be something that concerns old people only, even the young youth with a health issue can also quit gambling usually until they are OK.

As for me, if I remains in good health even in my age, I won't quit gambling, but at that point in my life, I will no longer gamble to make money, but just a means stepping out and having fun..

Another factor is money because when we are in a senior stage, our pensions and incomes goes to our maintenance medicines if we have many symptoms, all our funds goes to our medicines, so we got that need to stop gambling.

Agreed, when we get to order ages we shouldn't be taking too many risks again. I don't support old folks to be gambling to look for money, by that age they suppose to have planned their retirement and have enough money so that they won't be looking for money again. Supposed they didn't plan well, they should still not result to gambling but look for other senior job that they can do for money. Gambling should only be a means of having fun and not looking for money.

At old age, our thinking will not be as smart as it was when we were still youthful. When I see old people gambling, it worries me and I wish there was something I can do. I could give them money but I won't because they'll only use the money to go back to gambling and continue to lose until they don't have any money left.

Priorities. This is one of the reasons why gamblers are changing their coarse and stop gambling. They no longer prioritize their own enjoyment and they need to focus on other things like as you've said, aging which is also including being a family person. When you've got a family on your shoulder that relies and counts on you, you'll have to sacrifice anything that you are enjoying with so that you can sustain the needs of the family, your kids and your wife/husband. This is the reason why some gamblers successfully quit because of their priorities although every family guy can go back to gambling anytime they wish to as long as they are not putting into jeopardy their duty as a family person.

Not only in gambling but on many activities that involve motor coordination like eyes, decision-making, and quickness of hands, we all know in gambling we need to be fully aware of what we are doing, from analyzing the game to putting bets, and if these coordinations are lost, we tend to lose our motivation to play.
Another factor is money because when we are in a senior stage, our pensions and incomes goes to our maintenance medicines if we have many symptoms, all our funds goes to our medicines, so we got that need to stop gambling.

Old age comes with some level of non-involvement in some desired activities, but you see gambling, the only constraint to gambling is when your gambling friends as a whole are all dead and you are left with no one to visit and gamble together and also when old, people tend to stop gambling with the casino or betting houses since and resume gambling among themselves. I see old men in the neighborhood visit each so they can gamble among themselves, although most times there are no stakes, and they do it now for the fun of it and as a solution to the loneliness that comes with old age. Although once in a while I still see them in gambling houses to print out games which tells me that old age reduces your gambling ability to the barest minimum but does not eradicate it totally.

I think some of them are just suppressing it, cause there are too much risk for them, when they get older.
It isn't just about money anymore for others it could also be their family, I know some who almost broke up with her husband due to his gambling addiction, so I think it is just a choice that they made due to their responsibilities.

A lot of things can make one stop gambling as he is getting old. The old man might not have the time to gamble anymore due to family members around him that he needs to make happy. He might not see gambling as fun anymore, and has other games he plays for fun without money. It might not be good for his health because gambling is emotional. No one was given birth as a gambler, and I believe that no one will gamble till death calls him at old age

That will depends on how they determine their reason to stops gambling while they are aging. They don't have to say their reason to stop gambling but if you meet someone who wants to stop gambling, you can ask to them what is their reason.
But if that is me, I will not playing gambling when I am getting old considering that I will be more busy so maybe I will start to leaves gambling slowly. We must choose what we will do in the future especially when we getting old.
We can not still playing gambling if we are old although some grand father or grand mother still playing gambling. But we are not the same as them and we have different thing in life. So we may have more responsibilities in our life and we can not lets gambling risks us by losing our money in the gambling table.

There's no such thing, as long as you aren't in the underage category there's absolutely no concern about age.. gambling is not restricted to old age or gender, as long as you are mature enough to take responsible risks then you have nothing to worry about...you can decide to quit at any point due to reasons best known to you.. Gambling isn't something to be relied on so you must find something to do to keep your self distracted from it when you start developing dependency issues... remember to always gamble responsibly..

The same way there's no age limit aside from for minors to gamble, that's the same way everyone who makes their own money is entitled to make their own gambling decisions, even in a sick bed; they have the right as long as it's legally allowed.

But we shouldn't forget that there is a certain age where someone will get to which the only thing they should be more focused on is their health and how to protect it and not how to get yourself involved in gambling where you can lose your mind where doing that's a result of either a big win unexpectedly or losing a game that has been slightly won.

So even though there's no limit, one should still limit themselves from gambling when they have reached a certain age where any little thing can affect their health.

The possibility is still there but the reason may be a number of things that depend on the circumstances such as bankruptcy, self-realization that they are old and not really suitable for gambling or there is a restraint imposed by their children or spouse so that they cannot do it so that those in old age stop gambling.

The rest I think is difficult because after all, we know that in the end this does not look at race, gender or age so regardless of age we will all still continue to gamble no matter what if some of the factors as I said above do not occur.
I have some elderly people who are already at retirement age and only spend time at home but because there is no restraint by the closest family, no self-awareness and still have money, some of them still gamble and even spend time with it.

Well, if that's the reason people who are old enough to gamble are like that, I don't think there's anything wrong with that. Because their main reason is for their loved ones. Then it's just as ugly to see that we're old and we're still gambling. Even if we say we are just enjoying the time we have in this world.

Unless maybe the others, even when they are old, don't care that theirs can play gambling because the addiction has been there for a long time and
they have been playing gambling for a long time, so that's how it is.

A gambler can never stop gambling based on just one field, but in old age a gambler tries again and again to know if he is taking the right path. And when an old man comes to his old age he faces various problems like money problems, cognitive problems, and loses moral strength so the gambler stops his gambling due to various reasons.
But most of the time I see money crunch in old age and morale loses strength. So a gambler cannot concentrate properly in gambling and facing various problems, he is deprived of gambling in old age.
