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

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.

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.

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.

Please direct me if this topic has been discussed here on this board so that I can lock the thread.

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

What a good question, Can i gambler exceed the age where he doesn't want to gamble anymore I believe when it comes to gambling there is no age limit or upper limit when people are gonna stop gamble. I saw some people that depression because of gambling activity even my cousin get divorce because some slot game and have a lot of debts.

They gonna stop when they think is enough most of the people gonna stoop if they think there is no possibility to win again or catching all the losses. When that comes some user might think is better to stop maybe at the age of 40-60+ when they have a family and don't have things like gambling on their mind

I do believe that there's a age where one will get to and they would lose the taste to gamble.

I don't think so, it depends on people however Some will quit while some will continue.

Quote from: Dr.Bitcoin_Strange on November 06, 2024, 12:01:09 PM

It happened to my grandfather but I don't expect everyone to be the same. Some persons might stop gambling once they have aged enough while some people will continue to gamble till death, as long as they are strong enough to keep gambling.

My grandfather never stopped gambling till death. Now my father is getting older but he still keep on gambling and I have never seen any sign of quitting gambling in him. Now we are still saying thesame thing that it's a matter of some kind of people.

Quote from: Dr.Bitcoin_Strange on November 06, 2024, 12:01:09 PM

While I was younger, I see my grandpa always gamble but he is above 80 years of age now and doesn't gamble anymore despite that he is still very strong and healthy.

That is because he has seen no reason to keep trying something that never work out for him many years ago. Or perhaps it could possibly see it as stress and may not want to associate with the younger once in the casino and feel disrespected. Or maybe he may be thinking of advising young one to desist from it rather encouraging them.

It is not a guarantee that their old age will stop gambling, because gambling does not require energy to do it. So, when those who are old and still have capital or money, then of course they will still be able to gamble at an old age. Because the point is,age will not be a guarantee for anyone to stop, because those who stop gambling are not because of age but they have other reasons that strengthen themselves to stop or continue gambling. After all, gambling itself can start at a young age and also, many young people who previously gambled but they chose to stop quickly. So, age is not a reason for them to stop gambling, but another reason that will make them really stop gambling completely.

I probably think it's not about their strength or weakness because gambling does not require physical strength. It's all about their mental state and financial state. Those with high responsibility tend to attend to many problems when they are again. It could be family, friends, business, and their investment with companies. They wont have the time and finance to spare for gambling unless they do not want to build a good family. No doubt age is not a barrier or hindrance to those who want to gamble. But at some certain stage in life, a man tends to have a different view or perspective about something. And that has to do with age/maturity alone.

It is true that in gambling, physical strength is not needed to gamble and all they need is funds that they can use to bet and they must be ready for whatever is produced from the bets they play and we often see those who don't have time to gamble with the various activities they have of course they won't spend much time gambling because the activities they do are only working to make money and after that of course they will be tired from work of course choosing to rest rather than gambling. Everyone will always admit that age is not a barrier to gambling because I have also seen those who are elderly still gambling, but of course this is very different from when they were young.

By the time a gambler is youth, he has the opportunity to earn enough money to meet his needs, but that consistency will decrease, especially if he is not doing something that does not earn him money on a regular basis. That is, if he does not create any business or any field of income, then his income flow will decrease. Gamblers who are self-reliant do not have additional income will find it difficult to manage gambling in old age. Because if someone is financially damaged at that time, then the opportunity to manage their own life or recover that money will be narrowed. As an adult, you can take risks that are not necessarily possible. Moreover, it is normal for a gambler to be physically unwell at times of compulsion. At that point a gambler will be able to figure everything out on his own.

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

I'm not sure but I believe age is not a valid reason for stopping gambling because personally I have seen gamblers who are above 70 years in age and still they gamble just like youngsters. I believe the only reason to stop gambling is when you decide that it's no more entertaining and it's wasting your time, however someone who has been doing it for longtime might not be able to have that type of decision easily.

You are right, age will not stop someone from continuing to gamble. I have met many people in real life who gamble from the age of 20 to 70 where they still like to gamble. I think that those who are older or older who continue to gamble are no longer looking for victory but they prefer it as a place to find pleasure in life by gambling. Sometimes many of those who are 70 years old still like to play slots compared to gambling on soccer betting.

So it will be quite difficult for someone to stop gambling if they still have a lot of money, unless they have no money and live in poverty of course they will stop gambling. I think it is a difficult step because they are already addicted to something that has become one with their bodies so it will be quite difficult to separate. But no matter how conscious someone is, no one knows, sometimes they can stop completely because of the support factor of their parents and sometimes they continue to gamble.

What's more important than an aged man trying to enjoy his retirement from things that could cause them some heart trouble?

I mean, the danger that gambling can cause with those with high blood pressure problems, or it's alike, as they can get a heart attack from the shock of winning big in a bet or losing too much in a particular period, aside from the money they need to stay safe and preserve the little life they have left.

First of all, I think there's a similar topic to this one already... I can remember engaging in a conversation like this but, I'm not certain of where it was...
That being said, this is just a general knowledge that'd definitely set in; one of the advantages of building maturity over time is understanding the difference between necessity and miscellaneous,Wants and needs. If you wanna keep feeding your self-pleasure, whatever it is, you'll need enough to cover the bills as well....so, the question is -- who's gon pay for your tickets(when you've realized you don't even have enough to eat well)?

Several other reasons... severe health problems, felony, etc ... Majority would fall in-between the realization of what gambling actually is, and how insanely unreasonable it is to rely on it.

Yes, you have a good point on what you just said above, because inasmuch as financial security is one of the reasons why a user may choose to stop gambling while he/she grows old, other factors such as health, and change of environment can also be a reason why most people may choose to stop gambling while they grow old, and I will be elaborating these two points below.

1. Health: Because we all know that when we grow old, we stand the chance of been at risk of many health challenges, of which when an individual finds out he/she is battling with such health challenge, they tend to forget about gambling and focus and health, which is most important first.

2. Change of Environment: Most times when people grow old, there is likelihood of change of environment to occur, most especially when you have kids who are now financially buoyant and living in cities. Hence, when old people travel from original location to a different destination, they most times tend to adjust to a new lifestyle.

Consider also that when you are already in old age, you don't have much to do in life. So one way to get your mind busy is to do something light, like gambling. Hence, some old people are devoting their time into this laid-back activity. It doesn't mean that they will spend good money to this, but usually it is just to pass their time. So they are only allocating whatever funds they have.

However, I believe we all know the reason why only the mature people are allowed to gambe, because the casino probably believed that when you are mature you can gamble responsibly.

That's barely the actual reason behind this rule. Casinos don't allow underaged people to gamble because they are not allowed to and they can face legal consequences if they allow it.

Well from my opinion, it's probably because anyone below 18 years is not mature to handle gamble losses, and one of the reasons why government gives an 18 years person the right to vote is probably because they believed that that's the age they became matured to make their decisions. So with this only, if any casino allows an under 18 year old child to gamble, the casino will surely face their warrants.

You are right. There is no age limit for a gambler, as long as you are above the age of 18 you can gamble till the rest of your days. Actually the only way that casinos could know an under age gambler is during their KYC verifications, immediately the age of the person is discovered his or her account will be blocked (for a reasonable purpose). However, I believe we all know the reason why only the mature people are allowed to gambe, because the casino probably believed that when you are mature you can gamble responsibly. Outside winning, the other important thing we need to keep in mind as a gambler is to visit the responsible gambling menu immediately we noticed that we are over gambling.

But you said there's no age limit for gamblers and you came up with a conflicting message that indicates above age 18. That's already a limit in itself. I don't want us to misconcept this. I think there's age limit to gambling for anyone who cares about their mental health and wellness. Most of the time, gambling in itself is brain draining considering the amount of risks that comes with it. So you won't ordinarily allow an underage to participate in gambling likewise someone who's in their late 60s, 70s, 80s or 90s. It won't be good for their mental health at all.

Well, what am trying to say here is that, there's an age one will reach before he or she starts gambling but there's no number of age a gambler will reach before he quits gambling, so this is the limit am talking about. When you are above 18 years you can gamble everyday and not stop.
