Money is very important nowadays. That is why we should be wise in handling it. Gambling could sometimes be a reason why we mismanage our funds especially when are addicted to it. Setting our priorities is very important to keep in track but the question is how we are seriously doing it cause it gonna be a big challenge and in most cases that we do first those who have less priority than the most important.

Yes, how we are serious about handling our money will be a big question and needs our attention because if it's not, we cannot hold the money in our pocket. We will always spend more and more money until all the money is gone. If we can know which is the priority in our life, and we know that gambling will be a part of life, then we will not spend much time in gambling. We can manage our time to gamble, to work, to spend for our family, so our life will be a balance.

If people would take gambling as only source of money they I would say that it is not a career. We dont need to stop gambling if that is our recreational activity and if makes us fun. But I think few more months from now I will stop it, since I want to have a break on it , and focus on other things. We should not get addicted on it.

No, I think it is hard to use gambling as a source of money. You will not have that chance because many people prove that, and they lose much money and time in gambling. That is great if you can think of a break and stop gambling because that is not good for your financial. You can prevent addicted if you can stop early.

Addiction occurs in various ways, some are addicted to alcohol, some to smoking, some to food, and so on. Only when you see your family suffering from your addiction does addiction become evil. So first decide what's good for your family and then think if your addiction causes your family to suffer. Then choose the right one. Thus I believe if you want to have a good life you can't be addicted to gambling

Family matters more than anything else. Money is nothing if there is no family, we earn money and we work hard because of our family, so choosing family over gambling is pretty obvious. This question may be for those too addicted to gambling who can not regulate their mind playing gambling. Perhaps choosing the two is hard for them.

People throw around the word addiction too much.  I used to play every day for years and its not especially negative when its just a pasttime.  Its only a negative when the money is a big deal and its altering your ability to pay for basic things, the key base line for healthy use of betting platforms is only spend the spare cash, same as drinking or any luxury.

As you said, gambling can't be the first priority thought, It's so risky and at any time you can lose all of your money. Choosing family and holding your money is the better choice to be honest, I'm not saying that you'll just quit gambling forever, people can just gamble, but at least they need to control themselves and do not be greedy.

In life you need to put any thing in order for us to make a good decision. In life we need to prioritize our family first before anything else. Then career will be the next priority , it will bring us the money that we can use to support the needs, our gambling profession right now is what should I call career. Put everything in moderation and the rest will follow.

Totally true.
Gambling shouldn't be compared to life, family and career. Not that one can not take it serious: you should, especially when you are playing it. But it's shouldn't be made a priority.
Putting gambling as a priority will easily make way for addiction.
Addictions that will place your life and your family into a big disasters, you should always give much of your time and money to yourself and your family not to this kind of activities. Having some fun is good enough not to the point that you'll keep engaging yourself and keep losing your savings. Think into
a much brighter side of your life, there's a good things around you and not only gambling.

We all know that being an addicted gambler is a very tough spot in our life, but what if you need to decide what to choose, your addiction or you family? i.e., the given situation will be that you need to decide on the spot if you want to pursue your "career" in gambling or make a good simple life with your family? what will you choose?

If we are planning for good life and good career gambling is not at all a choice for you we need to choose the best available options like service base works in crypto market.
I believe such business will be helpful than the gambling. It gives good enjoyment for the people who only cares about the fun life.

If we arent that sensible enough then expect for these things to happen.Gotten easily addicted not only on gambling but in all sorts of hobbies or things you are involved on.
We should know on whats priority and what is not.Balance things up then you would be fine and having a good live will vary into decisions that you do made along the way.
Gambling is just for fun no strings attached and if you do treat it differently then you're in big trouble.

I would never pursue a career of successful gambler because I'm trying to eliminate uncertainty, as much as possible, from my life, and there is a lot of uncertainty in gambling. If you have wife and kids, you are no longer risking by yourself alone, but you are putting all of them at risk. A family man just can't rely on something with so much chaos in it as gambling.

Yes, you can try to put some order in it by sharpening your skills and inventing various strategies, but that should be done for entertainment purposes only. The welfare of your family shouldn't depend on your luck.

Very well said, I think this is the answer that I wanted to hear about what I've posted, this is the most realistic and the accurate answer I'm waiting since I've posted this topic.

Just like what you have said, it is indeed should be done only for entertainment purposes only but beyond that, you have to think always that you have family on the line to feed and to take care of, that includes their needs and wants in life, and you can't support that if all of your money is always getting in the bankroll of any gambling sites.

P.S: gonna close this thread now.

Happy New Year guys. Smiley

That's pretty safe, but if you have the skills, aren't you gonna invest on it?
well, I get your point, not every gambler are willing to take that journey due to its risk level and even if we really tried our best, there's no guarantee that we will be successful in the end. I don't know, maybe it's just me, until now, I am still looking for ways to improve my skills and to be consistent as it has been a dream of mine to make big money in gambling, which until now I can't still find a clear path to walk.

But it is hard to say gambling is a career because if people are trying to use gambling for searching for money, they will not feel easy to make money. People will only lose money if they cannot play with cautious because gambling is something that they can use for having fun. Gambling will be like that, we cannot bring that money, and we should know that the family is the most important than gambling.

Making money by playing gambling is not a problem as long as you don't prioritize it. If in an urgent situation or want something looking for money by playing gambling is the right choice you can get money easily without asking for a loan. Just don't think gambling is the main thing to get money at least you have a real job and a fixed salary to finance your future life.

Would it be better if we consider our career first then family? Basically my principle in life is to first tackle all the needs of myself, especially to improve myself and if I have enough, or more than enough then I will help my family, in addition, that is the time I could spend some funds in gambling considering its risk for me to get addicted, I will enhance my self control.

Good thing if we can manage to initiate self control boost even though you're in middle of a gambling addiction. One thing that's very important in our self control was, family's important time particular on spending very memorable situations that gambling can't even buy those wasted days. Family was the most priority of all, so strive harder to make gambling to be a least priority just to overcome addiction.

this is where the need for sources of income other than gambling takes precedence. I don't want to risk both of them even though family is very important. I would rather stop and choose to save money in a bank if it is involved with a very severe condition. But I still have good financial management, and gambling is not always the first priority, addiction can always be rehabilitated as time goes by with an increasingly healthy mentality.

Priority if set rught can lead a good life and your would enjoy your life as wll beacuse you would be spending on the needs fgirst and rthen on thw wants . But gambling is such an acitivity if get addcited you would spend here more than in your needs as well as you might lose in gambling and would not have money to spend on your needs.

I depends, when you are addicted to gambling, should you totally ignore your family? At lease you should go home to sleep, of course the addiction will have a way of affecting your attention for your family, but whatever you are addicted to should be profitable enough to make you still pay bills and your family should accept that you are addicted to something reasonable not to be a fool. Family is far more important but if one is addicted to gambling not foolishly.
If one is addicted to gambling there's no other things inside his mind everything is all about gambling, it won't bothered to think about his family as
he will only care about how to gamble and all inside his minds is just to find ways to try winning and increase his chances to win big time.
Yes these things happen to the gamblers but along with that there is a lot of entertainment in these games which also attract them and keep them intact to the gambling. Plus the wish to earn profit in gambling increase the addiction of gamblers. These things when combine together the gambler start to lose their family members and they forget that they also have to care for their family.
I think you guys just ignored the fact that gambling is a disease and it is not healthy anymore if you are eaten by it. Gambling is present and designed for entertainment purposes only and you shouldn't fallen addicted to it. If a gambler is addicted yet making a good profit more than what he lost then they can continue the path of being a gambler but if they were beyond losses then it is unhealthy anymore.
Gambling as such is not a disease. Gambling addiction is. Don't ignore the difference. If you gamble responsibly and set financial limits to yourself, gambling is a hobby like any other. Most hobbies cost money anyway so gambling is not different here.
It is not so hard to avoid gambling addiction as everyone better knows what is good and what is not good for them so if you are watching that you lose is increasing with your stay you better stop investing more than trying to recover your lose and make more mistakes in this way. If you once lose just stop investing more and you can again gamble on a lucky day.
