Topic: Can someone take gambling as a source of income to he/she life? - page 7. (Read 2675 times)

Trying to make gambling a source of income is terrible because one will be expecting win from every game and one would like to play to recover every game of lose and you know gambling is always not certain,  expecting a lot from it and not having it can lead to serious depression.  Gambling is a game that needs not to be taken serious for money because money in gambling comes a surprise , but I become so worried about people after making attempts of making money from gambling even with the results they get from gambling in a longtime they still continue to see gambling as a way of making money.

The uncertainties of winning after playing several times is supposed to make some gamblers change their mindset on making money from gambling.

So that means you were jealous of your friend when you were studying because he often won gambling and even sent him money, and you were not like him. Is that what you mean? You know there are gamblers who are really lucky at gambling, and there are also those who are mostly unlucky at gambling.

I also have a friend who often wins gambling; he often tells me that he won gambling and maybe 3-4 times he won gambling, and the biggest he won was around 1230$ and the lowest winning was 180$, but I never envied him, even though I admitted that he was lucky in gambling compared to me.

Gambling aint a job. Its a game. Simple as that. You want to earn money? You work hard, you invest smart. You dont play roulette all day. Thats for suckers. Gambling isnt bad. Fun things might happen. It excited me. You must use caution, though. Its entertainment, not a career. That money you're betting? Thats your fun money. Its not for groceries or paying the rent.

You see, with gambling, the house always wins. That is the manipulation. But hey, if you wanna play, thats your choice. Just be smart about it. Dont get addicted. Dont bet the farm. Have a good time, but know when to walk away. Remember, the true winners work hard and invest wisely.

The host will use various methods to limit the winnings or profits that the gambler will get, even though the rules seem unreasonable to the gambler, but what can you do, the host has the right to determine the rules on the gambling platform and we as gamblers must be able to accept and be willing don't want to have to agree with the rules that have been issued. It is absolutely true that basically losing money in a casino is experienced by more gamblers than those who manage to win or get lucky there.

Yes ofcourse, even I have heard about such cases where gamblers have been limited to betting after they won a certain amount of money.
Gambling platforms have designed their sites in such a way that they are always in profits.
It's only the end users that have to lose money. Only a few lucky people make money in gambling but that's just pure luck.

This is a wrong expectation to say that gambling is an income generation source. It is just a fun game where you may win money but it is not guaranteed. A Source of income is something which you are sure to get and also there is no chance of loss. In gambling, you will face a lot of losses and hence you cannot be solely dependent on gambling to make money.

Gambling can be as enjoyable and exciting as it can be but it should be approached with the mindset that any money spend is the cost of entertainment. It is something similar to buying a movie ticket or attending a sporting event but the difference is that here one can also make some money. Yes, the money spent on gambling will be gone, if you lose the game but there is the hope of winning in gambling and this makes it a unique type of entertainment value.

You know that there are people who earn regular income from gambling. Most of you who comment here have such a mental block in your head that you can't make yourselves clear.

Another thing that I'm sure you haven't heard about is that what you call "luck" only exists in the short term, not in the long term. That is why those of us who earn money with gambling can do it and that is also why casinos earn so much money.


As far as I know, this generally only happens in sports betting. Another thing is that if you deposit your money and they lose it, the casino does not investigate you but if you win a large sum of money and you want to withdraw it, they do, to avoid fraud (and leaving aside casinos that scam).

Not only “not a reliable of source income” but rather it’s literally not a source of income because it’s a business that design to provide entertainment with it’s customers and not a financial wealth because they are business that gets profit through customers money so there’s no way they will allow players that continuously draining their bankroll.

This is the reason why there’s a lot of issue about account restrictions whenever a player is winning frequently or showing a successful gambling records. Casino ToS tell’s everything it since they have the right to restrict any player with their own discretion.

Yes, the point is because there is no certainty and any guarantee in gambling so that these activities can only be used as entertainment activities without putting hopes and goals in the long run, because we will never know about when we will be able to win, while on the other hand the possibility of risk is always lurking for us which can make us lose money. And also logically if for example gambling can indeed be made as a place to produce in the long run then surely there will be many previous gamblers who have now become rich people, but the fact is that this does not happen and in fact the opposite happens, in the sense that instead of producing but what happens instead is losing significant amounts of money. In the end in some cases often those who carry the intention to earn instead experience addiction and experience various adverse effects of addiction.

Using a small budget in gambling yes it is an approach that is always recommended to minimize the possibility of losing, but I think so far we can never make the amount of the budget as a benchmark or guarantee to always produce a win, or the point is that risking a small amount is only useful to minimize the possibility of losing a significant amount that is not desired but not something that can ensure that you will always be able to win with that small amount, Because in gambling for the problem of victory no one will know, meaning that it depends on how lucky you are at the time of running the session, and also even though the amount you bet is small but still gambling every day is always not recommended, meaning that besides you put a limit on the amount of budget but you also have to limit the time of your involvement.

The truth is gambling is not a reliable source for income generation, as anyone who wants to take such step is Suicidal Mission of which there is very little chance of survival. The fact that gambling gives a kind of room were people win, does not make it a medium for total dependence on it because winning is not guaranteed as it happens by chance.

I think it's that winning streak that gives people the confidence to think gambling can help them as a source of income. Just imagine a situation where you win gambling for 7 days and you never expected it, that thought will comes to your mind immediately but the days you will experienced loss steaks, you wouldn't even try it again, it's a financial suicide to ever think of using gambling as a source of income because it doesn't pay for long term.

However, the fact that it doesn't work for me doesn't mean I will discredit gambling isn't working for other people, we have some people that makes a living from gambling but they are just a drop in the ocean who makes that kind of living, the rest are just like us who make few profits from gambling and enjoy the fun that comes with while the rest just gamble and make losses to favour the gambling platforms.

I will agree with that.
We don't know what is next, it's all up to the gambling site's system if they will give the max multiplier to you. That's with casino and slot games.
When it comes to sports betting though, it's different. I have seen great prediction makers who could do it consecutively but that is because they know the game, love it, and are always updated with the statistics and records of each team or player. That is something that cannot be learned in a day or two and they are not dependent on luck. They are trying to increase their chance to win through analysis although it's still not 100 percent accurate.

You are absolutely right, because taking gambling as a source of income is like commiting suicide because it will bring more harm than good to their lives, gambling will make most people to be losing more money than saving more. If anyhow actually take gambling as a job, I don't think the person is actually planning good for his family or for themselves and I think we should consider gambling as fun or entertainment and not as a job.

This lifestyle has no future for most players because there will be more losers than winners. Of course there will be those who are lucky enough to win the jackpot and their lives will be forever changed if they do not start playing again and end up making a deposit at the casino. And those who lost will look for new ways to play, although they need to look for something else. Namely, what will force them to stop playing for a very long time. If the player does not find such reasons, he will simply waste his life day after day, year after year. He will not be able to start a family, raise children or experience other joys of life, of which there are very, very many, he just needs to look around. I think everyone will find a reason to finish the game and start doing what they really want and enjoy it. Many players do not know how to appreciate the fact that they were lucky to be born in such a time of comfort and freedom of choice and liberalism. I want to say that you should not take the game as a constant source of income, this is a mistake imposed by others.

In fact, it is everyone's right to make gambling their main source of income, but that is an action that seems wrong because gambling will not be able to provide definite profits, whereas we need profits to survive. In fact, everyone definitely wants more than what they already get. . Apart from that, the chance of winning at gambling is smaller than the chance of losing, not to mention that winning at gambling is on the side of luck. If you are lucky, you can win, but if you are not, you will never be able to win.

Compared to gamblers who gamble as entertainment, it could be said to be a small number, because there are many people who gamble as something they think can make money for sure, even though in reality winning will not be easy to get, even though they do it often or even use strategies they believe in. You won't be able to win for sure, so winning is quite strange. If you make gambling a source of income in life, it will most likely only make things more difficult.

When you can wins for some time, your minds will thinks to keeps trying to playing gambling to wins more money. But that will not always happens because you can lose streak after your previous winning and makes all of your wins money is gone. That's happens to many gamblers and they don't realizes that when they decides to keeps playing gambling, they will lose more money and will becomes deeper in gambling. They don't even realizes that they already gets addicted to gambling because they wants to recover their lose.

If you can realizes the mistake you made, you will trying to fix the mistake and don't wants to repeat the same thing. You will trying to reduce your gambling activity, especially the money that you use to playing gambling. You already feels the pain of losing the money so you will not wants to gets the same thing. You realizes that gambling is not a source of income for you and only for have fun.

Well, it is not necessary that we do the hard work, if you are smart enough, you will surely be productive. Nevertheless, you are very correct, if anyone is running from hard work and resolves to take solace in gambling as a source of income, then the person is not wise. Fine, gambling may be the source of earning too, but this should be a passive means of earning, not otherwise. And the fact that it is risky should talk volume of senses into the person. Gambling can make you lose so much more than the money, so if anyone thinks that they are running from hard work, they should never knock on the door of risky avenues like gambling and trading as a sole means of income, otherwise, they will be disappointed and make him life miserable.

I enjoy gambling when I have other income sources, and even when I lose money, I do not feel it. That is the mindset at which people should gamble, they should gamble as though they are not desperate for the money, however, if the money comes they will be happy. Above all, they should learn from others who had the believe in making gambling their source of income and judge for themselves if that is still what they want for their lives.

When I started gambling in a new state, I was very happy to win gambling for several days. Then I thought that by earning money from gambling, I will take responsibility of everyone including my family. But gradually I realized that the decision I had taken was completely wrong. Because  No one can ever earn a certain amount of money by gambling. Sometimes there is a chance of winning in gambling and sometimes there is a high chance of losing a lot of money. So I don't see any chance of winning a certain amount of money from gambling.

If a person thinks to change his luck by gambling then it will be totally wrong. Because gambling is totally based on luck as well as gambling experience. In gambling a person can tell himself when he will win and when he will lose.  You can't. So I think it would be completely stupid to think of making money from gambling. I like gambling mainly as a means of leisure time entertainment. You have to accept both losses while playing and then you can enjoy gambling.

Being able to stop gambling even when winning is possible, but for the interest of money, most players wouldn't think of this even when they're losing. Staying attached to gambling like a full source of income would only affect the player's finance if he spends most of his time in the casino and also inexperienced about this type of gambling lifestyle. Doing this online would be more expensive than offline casino. Either ways it's not encouraging to pick gambling as an only source of income, even when it costs you less than much. It's a boring lifestyle, spending all available time in the casino. But, if a person decides to follow such routine and has his way of dealing with it, without being hurt, that wouldn't be a big issue.
