This is because when you tell them that you are a gambler and that is what you do for a living, they will believe that you don't have plans for your future. This is because they know the risk in gambling and that you are not serious with your life because it is under a very low probability that you will be successful in life. Some religion don't also encourage gambling as it is an abomination to them.
gamblers will not consider themselves not serious in living life. Gamblers who have special skills for gambling that are not 100% based on slots gambling, then they have a better chance of winning at gambling, so they will continue by improving their strategy. This is different from slots or crash game gambling, the chance of winning relies on luck. Even though he knows the very strong effects of losing, this gambler does not mean he has lost, and this does not necessarily mean that he is not serious about his life.
The truth of the fact is that the ideology people have about gambling/gamblers can never change, no matter how much you claim to see it as a good profession one could venture into, because inasmuch as it's a game whose risk of lost super cede it's risk for victory, it will always remain a game seen not to be worth it as a carrier profession. Because the truth of the fact remains that "to be able to be a good gambler, one needs to have different alternative source of income," through which such gambler uses it to assist his/she gaming prediction, since it's certain that though you may win, you are also likely to lose more too. Hence, gambling should be handled with strict rules to both financial use and personal.
The only time that stereotypes will change is when one have been able to prove to those around him that gambling is not a dead sentence as society makes it looks, although gambling addictions can be life-threatening and at that we have to advocate for people to be aware of it and at the same time make out strategies to keep them above possible gambling addictions.
Most if us have seen that gambling os only harmful when there are addictive tendencies, but aside from that, the positive aspects of gambling also are mind-blowing and shouldn't be looked away from just because of misconceptions or mismisinformation.
Dealing with gambling isnt bad, the bad thing on here is that on the time that you do make things too much which it is really that related to gambling and this why it would really be taking all the blame.
This is why we should really that make ourselves that wary that gambling is really just that for fun and not for income source or making money because once you do have this kind of mindset then
you are really that prone to mistakes and errors or simply you would really be losing money. Its never been considered to be a full time job but rather it is really just that a leisure.
People do mess up just because of the wrong assumptions and treatment that they do have with gambling.

Gambling for leisure and not for making money because once you do make yourself getting addicted to it then it would really be that hard to get out. This is why it would be always better that you should really
know about the limitation and boundaries when doing gambling. It is really just that right that moderation and control would really be much recommended.

How gambling can be dangerous to your life, I think this is an exaggeration. If you treat this irresponsibly, it can cause you big problems, but it can lead to hopeless situations only in extreme cases.

I’m not sure whether gambling can become a full-time job, at least for me it seems impossible and I don’t know anyone in my environment, who could make gambling their full-time job. But I know people who at some time were involved in gambling, with big money, but in the end they only received losses.

You've hit the nail on the head! Gambling indeed involves a unique blend of skill, strategy, and luck. While some may possess deep knowledge and skills, turning it into a full-time career is a risky path. 🎲💼

We can't ignore the unpredictable nature of gambling, and it's crucial to consider the potential financial instability and the risk of addiction. Diversifying income sources, as you mentioned, is a smart move to mitigate these risks.

When it comes to exploring the world of online gambling, platforms like www.futureplay.com can offer a diverse range of games and experiences. While making it a full-time career might be challenging, these sites provide an avenue for both entertainment and the chance to enhance your skills. Always game responsibly and consider it as a supplement rather than a sole source of income!

Basically I would never choose gambling as a job because gambling will sometimes make a profit and sometimes a loss. If a person takes gambling as a job he would be very foolish to take gambling as a pastime for gambling.  Worthy. But I don't know if gambling is right for everyone. I prefer to spend my free time gambling.

Am still wondering how some people can be determined on making gambling as their major source of income, spending the whole day gambling is not a means to earnings from it, some may only get addiction from doing such at the end and yet earned nothing being profitable, we can also see gambling as a 50 by 50 percent chance of winning or loosing, what some may engage is in doing a job for the gambling organizations to earn a living but not acheiving that through gambling.

Professional poker players also have a lot of other sources of income. Many of them are doing stuff like:
-writing a book on gambling or poker
-doing affiliate marketing on their website for a casino
-giving out premium picks on membership channels
-building their own casino and running that

We should not narrow down their sources of income as poker or sports betting as said. There is the this "cushion" of income to back them up and all these are the non-gambling modes of earning.

But what you've mentioned only comes after they've become a known figure in the poker circle and it's going to take a long time for that to happen to them because there's a lot of big fishes you've got to challenge and get through to make a name for yourself but that's not the best way to get famous in poker and make a living out of gambling, the best way would be for you to play other games like roulette, blackjack or baccarat and make a killing out of those games which is difficult to do given that those games that I've mentioned aren't that easy to play because it's chance based unlike poker. And to answer the question, yes you can make a living out of gambling but it's not for everyone so don't get your hopes up about it, just gamble for entertainment.

This is one of the major mistakes many gamblers make and sometimes it leads some of them to be addicted in gambling, for someone to be addicted in gambling that means that the person have taken gambling as the source of its income precisely, so that is why I will say that no gambler should see gambling as life time job and the upmost source of income,  because when you take gambling as a source of income you will be gambling consistently and you will not know when you are supposed to gamble and when you not suppose to gamble even when you are making profits or not, so we need to have a bookkeeping for our gambling so that we will be able to know the statistics of our gamble.
Its fatal mistake when gambler make gambling as their habit or get addicted with gambling difficult how to stop and have mindset with gambling can be source income. Difference for gambler make gambling as entertainment and enjoy the moment awhile with gambling when have free time but if some one get addicted gambling they will make it as source income.
Keep consistent every day waste time for gambling and likely they don't have job, don't make gambling as source income because you can loss all in your life exactly have family and many people addict with gambling loss their most important in their life.
It is also not completely judgmental that those who consider gambling as income will be those who indulge in gambling, there are many other aspects that people can shape to turn into sources of income, such as short expressions here, sharing activities and gambling rules, we can also get a little income, in addition, this is also a topic to satirize or give advice to many others. On some social platforms, there are also a few shares about magic tricks for gambling, which are quite interesting and do not necessarily let life go in the most negative direction.

But if you talk about professional poker players, they can make a living out of it as well as long-time sportsbettors.

We see gambling as entertainment. That's the most important thing. And if there are people who see gambling as a job and make it a source of income, they will only be disappointed. They will find it difficult to get what they want because gambling is not what they imagined.

If they keep gambling consistently, they should be able to see how big their chances of winning are. If the odds are small and they only lose more often, that means they should stop wanting. This will be even clearer if we record every defeat and victory we have.

From this record, it can be seen that we still experience defeat more often than we win. And if we could realize that, we wouldn't want to use gambling as a job. That's where we have to be wise in assessing whether our actions are right or wrong. And if we think we've made a mistake, we should start looking for other ways to make money that aren't gambling.

In the first place, I can't make gambling a full-time job, to be honest. Think before you win really big here; it will take a lot of money to make it happen if you are unlucky. It would be fine if you were sure that you would win every day.

As others have said in this section, the more a gambler plays for a long time and often at the casino, the higher the chances of the gambler becoming addicted. And this will be a big problem later, and it will be difficult to recover in this situation.
Yes, you are right that even for a strat you need a large amount to provide yourself with a budget for bets and games. It is also worth considering the likelihood of losses and how this will affect the overall budget and be prepared for any force majeure that may happen in life and of course the most important aspect is addiction, I think if games replace work then addiction to games simply cannot be avoided in the end .
I would not risk taking part in such an adventure, as I see more disadvantages.

It could really be just only a profession possible into those people who do really have those card games and sports betting but for those people who are engaged with luck based type of games then this is something cant be possible because there's no such thing on this world to be winner from time to time, plus dealing up with luck based games wont really give out that assurance
that you would really be always lucky and instead on making money, you would really be rather losing instead. Once you are on the verge on chasing up losses then this is where
shit things would start to happen and this is why you should really be that making yourself that sensible on the actions that you would really be making if you dont like
on messing up your finances.

Gambling should be used for entertainment and to ease you from the day stress after work and not to be taken as a profession because that is why addiction will come in place, since you will be forced to be gambling always and also chasing your losses. It is unethical.

I'd like to clarify that this topic is distinguished from businesses or entrepreneurs involved in gambling as businesses, such as casino companies, etc., but with a focus on gamblers. I know there are many people who regard themselves as professionals at playing gambling games, but do you ever think that one can make gambling a full-time job and career because of his or her deep knowledge of the games? Can someone bet with little or no loss because it is one of the most unpredictable games to play?

Gambling to my understanding, is a trial-and-error game with uncertain outcomes, unpredictability, and luck. Therefore, professional gamblers must exhibit a deeper than usual understanding of the games, the statistical probabilities, and a high level of risk management skills.

However, it is critical to realize the risks involved, which include unstable financial circumstances and potential addiction problems. So, pursuing a gambling career should be approached with serious caution, and gamblers ought to be well-informed about the accompanying problems. Furthermore, I believe that having various sources of income and taking calculated risks will be highly beneficial.

But, in a broader sense, can you make gambling a career path, abandoning all other sources of income to focus entirely on it?
If so, why?
If not, please advise!

Having a gambling platform is clearly more profitable than spending a lot of money to become a gambling player.
Because if measured by the winning percentage, no more than 50% of people can beat a slot machine or something like that.
There are fewer than 10% of slot machine winners compared to the number of people playing at the same time.

Or working for a gambling company, it is more guaranteed in terms of salary and stability.
However, you can still work on your passion for gambling, if indeed gambling is one of your hobbies.

If we have more budget, of course I will make my own gambling game.

Most of the time, it becomes the habit of gamblers to gamble with players on gambling platforms. Especially in these times of online casinos.
That's why I haven't seen any gamblers who have proven that this is a good profession or a stable income.

Because I only see two things in the casino: when you have a lot of money to gamble with, the tendency is high to spend a lot of time playing if you are not watched while playing. There is also a chance that even if you have a lot of money to gamble with, when bad luck hits you, the bet will still be lost quickly.

There are also other times with other gamblers that, even if the gambling amount is small, they spend a lot of time playing because they are lucky in gambling. You know what that means.

This is actually interesting, but I still don't dare take the risk of becoming a profession just as a gambler, like what happened to my friends where they really couldn't control their gambling, they became addicts and even spent a lot of their assets. If I think a little wiser than making gambling as a profession, why don't we work on a gambling website, either as an admin or own a casino company as well. it will definitely keep us safer from the risks of gambling with big money as a salary. It doesn't need to be instant, the most important thing is that our assets are safe.
It is simple,you don't have a chance to make gambling a full time profession unless you are one of the guys who keep appearing on TV playing on Poker Stars.They make a living from that but all other people cannot be as successful as even odds of 1.01-1.05 will make you lose bets so it is impossible to make gambling a full time job with sport betting.If you think of having a huge amount of money and trying to play that on slots to hit that max win chances are high you will lose everything before you get to win a substantial amount there.Blackjack and Roulette are of course games of luck so I don't see any possibility to make gambling a full time job.
I slightly disagree with that because when we talk about sports betting, we question the skills and experience of the bettor and not their luck that much because the results of sports events aren't always influenced by luck. If a team or a player is the best in the sport they are playing, you can expect them to win most of the matches that they play against others with just the exception of a few matches that might be influenced by luck or other reasons like injuries and stuff.

So, if you are a sports bettor, you know and understand a certain sport very well because you follow it closely, don't miss a single match, and know all the teams and players, the chances are that you can make money from it because luck might turn the results of a few games but if you know what you are doing, you will win most of the bets that you make.

This topic or subject of if it's appropriate or not, to or for one to make gambling his or her life career, is something we have discussed on this board over and over and over again, but all the same, I understand this must be a very interesting topic or subject of or for discussion, and alot of users here might have missed all other discussions centered on this subject, so, it's not an abominable thing to have a new one at this time.

Well, I am gonna speak for my self and myself alone, gambling is not a career, and as such, I will never make it a profession, or my profession.
And this is because, the pursuit for winnings in gambling is full of uncertainties, being a family man with wife and children like I am, and depending solely on money made from gambling to feed myself and my family, and also pay my children's school fees, and take care of their day to day needs, is the biggest mistake I will ever make, and I never will make such mistake.
I hate living in uncertainties, and if there is actually a true meaning to living in uncertainties, it is, making gambling a career or profession, and only source of income.

Very few gamblers can make gambling a full-time job, while others are not successful in doing so. Those who are successful can use gambling to make money, but they have many abilities that are very different from the average gambler. People who want to make gambling a job must have that ability, but it is not easy to learn it, and this is why many people fail and end up losing a lot of money in gambling.

They must realize that it is better for them to use gambling as intended and will not pin their hopes on gambling. There are still many other jobs that they can use as jobs that can make money. They can still gamble but only as entertainment and not to make money, let alone make gambling a full-time job.
To be precise, many gamblers try to make gambling source of income or part-time job, but very few or almost no one succeeds in doing so.
So far, those who can really make profit by taking advantage of gambling are famous gamblers who already have good enough trust from other gamblers and have affiliated with them and even have streaming broadcasts on YouTube and several other social media.
That way there will be quite lot of income coming in from several sources such as bonuses from affiliates and also payments from every broadcast made on YouTube, what more, famous and trusted people like this also have profitable deals from the gambling sites they use.
For gamblers in general who really just pure bet and play without any other efforts, being able to make profit is something where the percentage of success will be very small.

Good, you said the right thing and indeed every gambler should think that there are lots of jobs that are more certain and can be guaranteed to provide income, from here they can also gamble at any time because there is still income that they always get more consistently.
Moreover, when they hope too much to make money from gambling, what they get is only annoyance and disappointment because they make efforts that they really hope will be successful but in reality the final results do not match those expectations.
Gambling with the hope of profit has caused many gamblers to experience downturn and destruction, we should all learn from the many cases that have occurred so far.
