Topic: Consequences of greed (Read 2401 times)

I will agree with you on this point because we have seen many gamblers who get big jackpots but later come back empty handed due to their greed and irresponsible life leading. Usually very few people are lucky enough to win the jackpot from gambling and if they do not use this opportunity or luck properly it is entirely their responsibility.  I think if someone has won a jackpot in gambling then it should be an investment from which we will generate a regular profit.

It is better to use the money earn from gambling to take care of expenses than to lose it due to greed. There are scenarios whereby some folks have won a certain amount of money that can help them to start a proper business or take care of some expenses, but due to the mindset of wanting more, because is common among gamblers to always want to win more despite being lucky hitting the jackpot,a nf they will endup losing it all in the process of finding more wins.

Gambling can change ones lives for the better and same time ruins ones lives if not approach well , that's why we should be mindful with the way we approach it to avoid any painful or sad stories.

The gambler who win the jackpot or big winning in the gambling will do the share of the information to their friends.The jackpot money can be used by that gamblers for the welfare of their family members and their friends.The greedy will make loss of all the funds and make you loss the capital most of the time.Until the gambler loss the capital in the gambling site,he never worry about the game loss.Because the gambling capital loss will make you to reinvest the money to the gambling site to get back your own money loss in the gambling site.

Whatever analysis see are taking to be considered to bet on, it is good we always try to take amazing security and gamble wisely. There are many people that have lost money in gambling because they are not so patient to analyze their bets before they gamble on it. There are so many gamblers that keep taking risk by betting on different predictions without watching and choosing games that could be a potential winning  from those predictions. It is wise for us to always planning and be a self predictors so that we don't have to keep losing funds while blaming others for our losses.

The problem is thar sometimes greed is the water that fill the cage where we’ll drown
You have to be really disciplined to be able to not fall for it
Emotional awareness and having people to talk to really helps in this matter…

Greed in gambling sometimes can be advantageous to a gambler and can also be disastrous the other times and that's why it's very difficult to tell gambers on whether to be greedy in their gambling decisions or not. But depending on the subject matter we're discussing, I think the decision to add more games to win more wasn't necessary and even if he wanted to do that, he should have staked the one his friend staked on, before he can edit the same game and add other options and rebet so that if his friend wins, he wins alongside with him and if the edited one happens to give him winning, he'll also rejoice. That being said, we wouldn't have blamed him if the games he added all played out positively to his prediction but since it didn't, he'll have to bear the loss alone

I don't know the real intention of the guy who gave that betting code to your friend, but I don't see any greediness on this one TBH.
It's just that, he isn't confident in winning in the games that your friend bet his money with, and instead bet on other games.

It's a bit unfortunate to that dude though that he wasted the opportunity to win a huge amount and instead, gave that opportunity to other person which is your friend. Anyway, shit like this happen especially in gambling and there's nothing that we can do, but to feel regret to ourselves at first, and then move on because of our wrong decisions. I hope that he's find by now since it's been near a month since you posted this OP, and I also hope that he learned his lesson now.

I understand what you're saying; I've seen a lot of movies like that where those who win gambling or get a jackpot suddenly change their behavior and their thoughts suddenly become different from the people around them.

Is it the type that suddenly doesn't know anyone, even those who used to be close to them who didn't do anything bad to them? They suddenly avoid you because they think about things that aren't true.

We are just humans and it would really be just that normal that we would really be able to feel out that greed or simply its always been that part of us. It do really just that matter on how
someone would really be able to have that control and will really be able to act on whats right and whats not. Usually people do make out learnings on the time or moment that they will really be having that kind of condition on which they are already losing that much. It would be never that something simple on making yourself having that kind of winning condition all the time since we know that gambling is really that heavily relying on luck and this is why as a gambler then you should be having at least that realistic approach on how to deal up with things. Be sensible and be wary about on the money that you are spending.

I agree with you frenn gambling is something that greed and fear can easily take control of our body hahah.
To be honest I feel to be in that position after winning streak there is always a small in deep of my heart and says "Play More" and maybe you can "win more" but the truth sometimes hit different

true what you said, indeed no matter how good the predictions of the gamblers who are controlled do not make them able to get victory with certainty that is why gambling will most likely only end in disappointment. the absence of certainty in gambling must be remembered so as not to gamble excessively such as following the greed that arises when you have won, the victory in gambling cannot be obtained with certainty therefore the greed that arises will not be able to make them able to win again and again.
I'm sure everyone agrees with the difficulty of controlling greed or controlling yourself when gambling. this is quite important in gambling because it can determine our fate in the future, if we fail to control it we are likely to experience great losses or lose even more money even though what is lost is the victory that has been obtained but I think it is annoying therefore we must be able to control ourselves well such as taking advantage of the victory that has been obtained.

It is very true what you say, and this applies even to trading, when we see that a prediction is good, we can't get excited and bet a lot of money, in one of those bets if we lose it we will be very badly off, and it is difficult to recover money, so in this order of ideas , it is always Better to always have our analysis as the first option, this does not take away the option of seeing other analysis, other advice and if we see that there are things that we can change , well we could change it, but it is something very delicate, we always recommend trusting what we know.

Yes indeed, better to follow your own prediction and enjoy whatever will be the outcome,  instead of following someone's assessment and regret things when it didn't happened according to your expectations,  it simply gives you a denial sentiment that might lead you to try more and lose a lot, it's a consequence that greed can lead you if you unable to control your emotions and unable to focus with your own assessment and analysis.

Of course, whatever you do and no matter how good the method you believe in the end victory is still something that depends on luck, that's because it is impossible for us to know what will happen in the future, and this is why gambling is called an unpredictable activity, and this is also the reason why victory usually only happens occasionally which happens when you are lucky.

As you said that the conclusion is that there is not much we can do because in the end the problem of victory always depends on luck, and also understand that in gambling something that works for others does not mean it will work for us too, luck does not depend on anything, and I am sure that if you know and understand the concept of luck then regret should not happen to you when you experience defeat or when you do not execute a bet that ultimately results in victory.

The gambler never knows what the outcome of the next bet is going to be. So he has to  gamble within an uncertainty before each bet. No matter how skilled a gambler is or how good a prediction he makes, there is no certainty. The gambler must control his greed. If greed is not controlled, no matter how wealthy a gambler is, he can lose his fortune at some point. There are many people in gambling who have not been able to hold their wealth despite having huge winnings. A gambler has a common character to be greedy but he has to control his greed. Those who fail to control their greediness and impulses are more likely to suffer from gambling.

You would definitely be having other words or saying or comment if the bet that had been added up had become a winning bet than into that older one, on which on the time or moment that you do find the results to be different then you would definitely be saying that its just right on what you have done. We do know that gambling would be having that different results on which luck would really be a determining factor. On the moment that you've seen yourself having those loses or winnings basing up into the choices you had made then everything would really be that depending on the luck you would be having. It would really be just that understandable that luck factor would really be that relevant or something that will really be mainly needed. Greed is part of human nature as always and its something that cant be taken away from us.
On the moment that you've been dealing on something that involves money then those emotions cant really be that be avoided out. Therefore, self control would really be that something relevant or
really that important on the moment that you do make out such dealing. Be careful on whatever decisions you would be making because every bad decisions be made up will really be having a significant effect
but of course risks management would be that considered too.

Well for the predictor of the gambling tickets, I'll say he messed up, though you cannot always tell when you'll hit the jackpot but the minimum stake on the original ticket before editing would have gone a long way for him. Sometimes fixing your eyes on small wins is better than having greed that might end the whole bet to loss. Anyway  it would be a nice thing if his fried who won the bet, compensated him for making the prediction. Gambling is a game were you can never make a 100% accurate prediction all the time, there are time where bad things happen but you can never know all or apply all your past experience to your new dealings because, the tables might turn the other way around.

At the end people need to recognize that no matter what they do, they cannot really control what it may happen, so while it is regrettable that both gamblers could not get such a win, at the same time it was impossible to predict the outcome will happen in that exact same way, so there is really not much to learn other than to believe in our own predictions and follow them through, because if we do not do it we may experience the same regret this gambler is probably experiencing.

This happens to greedy and, what is also important, inexperienced players much more often. After all, an inexperienced player often wants to try his luck at the moment when an experienced player understands that the next games will only make his balance worse, because there is a limit to everything. And greed is a good friend of stupidity and they work great together.

Sincerely, I never saw this your way and will never judge the guy despite the loss. The other friend who won the bet could have lost as well judging by the huge amount of money won, and this can only mean that they both took high risk, only that the risk of the person who lost was more. But this thread would have had another twist if the one who took more risk was the one who won more, that is when you would see the topic and subsequent posts reading "It's cowardice not to take the risk."

For this, I will blame no one, perhaps the time was not his lucky day.
