Topic: Do you gamble because you don't have sufficient money? - page 3. (Read 6921 times)

Sometimes there are people who think that playing gambling can be a shortcut to the luck they hope for. Every human being must have a limited amount of time that they are facing and at that time it is because of the awareness that they do not have any advantages. can run to gambling as a solution, yes, even if it's not the right thing, people will definitely sacrifice some money in the hope of a big win that day

People will always find a way to skip this question or make it as if it's a rhetorical question but everyone knows that money is exactly the motivation of gambling to begin with, if you are not gambling because you have insufficient funds, you should be gambling because you have sufficient funds and you are looking for a way to get more of it, even with fun there is motivation of money, you are not doing it because you thinks it's moral to gamble.

Gambling platforms aren't doing for any fun, they are strictly business and profit oriented people, that's why they are there to serve you better so you can keep losing without seeing any judgement or fault from their end.

Being in a desperate situation is probably the worse time to be gambling, as it can easily lead you to taking much higher risks or deceiving yourself as to the chances that a win will materialize. After you inevitably lose it is likely to lead you into an even more depressed situation, plus now you will be kicking yourself that you wasted what little you had left. The best time to gamble is when you have stable finances and do not feel any pressures, are well rested and not under the influence of any intoxicating substances. If you know it is just a little bit of entertainment and have allocated a small portion of your income to gambling, you will feel the most in control with the ability to walk away without another thought.

As it should be but its unbelievable that there are really indeed people who do make gambling as their last resort or something that solved out their financial problems on which this is really something which is really that absurd if we do speak something about this. This is why it would really be best that you should stop on thinking up on this way and just really that gamble for the sake of fun.

When you do gamble then it is really something that do speak about having those leisure or having fun and not making some income from it because if you do then you would be potentially be making yourself having
that kind of risks on sleeping on the streets specially if you do make your greed control you and make yourself have that delusional approach towards gambling then you would be ending up
on disaster and this is something that we dont really like but well there are people who are really like that.

In this sense of your, I hope you've now made enough money in gambling. By the way, how long have you been gambling for the money? I asked this question because I don't know how convenient it is to say that one is gambling for the money, the pressure will be too much in this regard and the gambler will always be susceptible to losses due to desperation which is emotional, and this will always cloud the judgement of the gambler. In other words, gambling may frustrate anyone having that kind of money-making mentality with it. The best is for gamblers to be neutral about it, filter and refine their minds and hope for the best even as they take gambling as a fun-filled avenue, which is just the best for the smart ones.

I have never seen the desperate people who made it in gambling, of course, there could be some exceptions. I mean the very lucky ones, but among 1 million people, if only 3 could be that lucky in that sense, is it worth giving a shot? For me, it is not in its entirety, the chance is too little. This is why I always advise that anyone who is desperate for money should look for it through other channels away from gambling, gambling will only impoverish them if they are desperate.

But for those who believe they can make money in gambling but never put their mind to it, then it is good for them and one day they could hit the Jackpot indeed. That's the best mindset of gamblers.

There are people , perhaps including you, who do not gamble regularly simply because they have limited financial resources. But for some, gambling is a form of entertainment; they have fun while playing. It should be noted that such people have more than enough money to take care of their needs.

It goes without saying that gambling is a risky venture: it can never be depended upon as a reliable source of income. Indeed, as you rightly pointed out, if one goes into gambling with the mindset that it is an easy way to make money, then the outcome could easily turn into massive losses.

Gambling tendencies differ by region and society, an interesting point indeed. Although some locales may see the less fortunate inclined towards greater gambling, it's a game without set rules on who partakes more. This is primarily steered by elements like culture, accessibility, and personal inclinations.

Therefore, while gambling holds its allure for anyone approaching it, prudence is key; it should not be leaned upon as a livelihood strategy.

gambling is not categorized for either those with sufficient money and those without sufficient funds, gambling is a game of luck that can Favour everyone both the rich, poor those with sufficient funds and those without sufficient funds. ordinarily i did not gamble because i did not have sufficient funds, i gamble most times to know if luck will shine on me. gambling is not certain and if you have the mindset that gambling will be the only measure to get money, i will be sorry to tell you sorry  because you might end up losing the ones you have. most people gamble for fun especially those with sufficient money because they will stake huge amount of money for either to entertain themselves or double the money. we cannot measure the percentage of the classes of people who gamble it all depends on your location because sometimes in some areas the poor will gamble more and other areas the middle class and the rich class as well, so we can't say for sure the class of people that gamble more because it depends on individual mindset.

Yes it happens some people gamble because they don’t have stuff funds and to me it doesn’t matter, but do what ever you think is good for you, I know it is a risk but I can actually gamble with my lasts cash and it will turn out to good and even sometimes I lose i I will just continue and never to give up, gambling is not something you should with emotions

Gambling has been a pastime for many over the years, but research shows that the rich actually gamble less than those in the middle and lower classes. Though the wealthy have more disposable income that could potentially be used for betting and games of chance, they tend to be more conservative with their money. The rich focus on investments and assets that will grow their wealth over time, rather than risk large sums on the roll of a dice or turn of a card. Those in the middle class, hoping to strike it big and move up the economic ladder, are more inclined to try their luck in casinos.

This is the difference in perspective between the poor and the rich, and if the rich have the mindset of the poor then I honestly don't believe that they will succeed in becoming rich, which means that the wealth that they have managed to get is because they have thinking skills that the poor do not have. Rich people engage in gambling because they feel financially capable and also have a certain amount of money that they can really afford to lose in exchange for entertainment, and one of the reasons why I strongly believe that it is unlikely for rich people to make gambling as a place to earn is because as I said above that they have different skills in how to think, usually they will only take opportunities if they really look reasonable to earn, while gambling runs full of uncertainty.

And this is why we always recommend not to overdo gambling, not least because it is unreasonable to put hope and faith in something that runs with great uncertainty in terms of generating winnings, but it is a fact that it is very difficult to advise poor people who try to use gambling as a place to change their fortunes, their hallucinations have gone too far to think that gambling can be used as a place to multiply their money and the reason may be because they have a stressful situation due to the financial problems they have in their lives.

Lastly I would say that there is no significant income with little effort.

Some times when I am out of cash, I normally consider to use my remaining money' to stake a game and if I get lucky to win by then I make a good return and become financially stable again, but other times when I am unlucky, I may not win the vet and there after lose all my money in the attempts.
So generally speaking you are right to say why most people gamble is because they want to make financial gains from their winning but in general that doesn't happen all the time as the tend to lose at some of the games and if you compare the ratio of winners and loser you will see that taking gambling as way of excape from financial crisis is never a good decisions.

That's true. They have money to gamble and it won't bother them if they go in a losing streak. While those that have just enough or don't do good with their living.

One lose and they're going to have an headache already. That's the reason why we tell everyone to gamble what they can afford to lose.

Because the rich are gambling because of boredom and they don't have to aim for the wins, they let the casino win and they are not emotional when they lose.

Yes I am quite sure and believe with your opinion here that people who eventually dedicate themselves to engage in gambling with the intention of making a lot of winnings are those who have a bad financial situation in their lives, they think that gambling can improve their lives or even they think that gambling can turn them into rich people, although the idea can never be justified by common sense but this is what most likely can happen when someone is experiencing financial pressure in his life which is possible for them to justify any means just to make money even if the method does not make sense.

This is also the reason why I don't believe that rich people make gambling a place to earn, because usually rich people have a rational mindset in every response and respond to everything before finally making a decision which is the skill they have that indirectly brings them to become rich people, and also usually rich people always calculate everything by looking at various sides where if there is no reasonable profit potential then they will not do it, and this is why I believe that it is unlikely that rich people make gambling a place to earn because after all there is always no guarantee and certainty to always be able to make a profit.

This means that rich people only see gambling as a place of entertainment to fill their spare time when they feel bored in the midst of their busy lives.

For those who arent that fortunate or something that living on an average life when it comes to financial aspect or condition then it would really be that very normal that there would really be that kind of some sort of kind of wishful thinking about being a winner in gambling and could changed up their lives via hitting those huge multipliers or hitting up those jackpots on which on the time that you would really be finding yourself having this kind of mindset then it wont really be shocking that you will really be that ending up on spending up more on gambling and since we know that gamblers do always sits down on the loser side then this is where you would really be starting to make out those kind of regrets in the end that you shouldnt have been that spending too much money with it.
Just like on what everyone is really that saying that people would really be stopping on the time that they would really be experiencing those hard situations and not into those moments that
they are still on the verge of losing that on small parts.

yes, I could bet that probably the ones that approach gambling trying to "make it" or change their lives for much better are the ones that don't have a lot of money to start with...
I could be wrong but if someone is rich and has the skills to stay rich they won't see gambling as their main source of income and all...

what do you all think?

Since the reasons why we gamble are numerous, we just have to understand that gambling is all about choice. There are people that would want to gamble when they don't have money and they see gambling as a way to make money when they are broke.

This kind of reason is still pretty good for people that see gambling in this way compared to something that see gambling as a means of survival. We need to be very careful when we are gambling so we don't become curious because we have bills to pay and we quickly want to make fast profits for survival. Whatever reason we gamble is left for us but we need to take risk management.

Absolutely true, many people lose control, forgetting why they came to gambling in the first place.
That's why so many ways have been invented to protect yourself. Starting from playing only with a certain percentage of your earnings, and ending with sticking a banknote on your laptop so as not to forget what if a gambler loses money in a casino. Then he is not playing with numbers on the screen, but with real money.
I think you just need to have good self-discipline and be able to stop in time, then everything will be fine.

Despite that this strength has been established long-term ago before now I think that the major reason some persons go into gambling it is because they really need a sufficient money and they know that gambling is a an instant money you can generate within a short time when the log of gambling is with you so I don't have much to contribute here because we all know that the objective of everyone who is into gambling is to make money, I know quite well that gambling is something that we Gamble based on different interior motive because what I have in mind to gamble might not be the same thing another person have in mind to gamble

You are right. Not everyone gambles purely to earn money, some people may gamble for other reasons. Some rich people probably gamble for fun, they don't think too much about earning money because they have enough money. People who have established financial stability may just try luck on winning the prizes on gambling, they don't chase winning but just playing gambling normally. In many cases, only people with unstable financial status who try hard to win the prizes, they sometimes gamble excessively because of hoping too much on earning money. I'm not trying to categorize the gambling goal based on an individual's economic level, but this is a fact that really happens in our life. Sometimes, people who don't understand the chance to win gambling, they think it is the way to change their economic level. But we know this is the wrong way because gambling is actually an entertainment purpose. If we really expect to earn money regularly, it is better to try a day trading.

Indeed. What the goal of our gambling, it should depend on our intention. It also determines the way of our gambling, the intention has a big role. If we have an intention to make money, we may try to gamble as often as possible because we will chase the wins. Meanwhile if we gamble for fun, we may gamble when we have spare time only. It is because we don't force ourselves to win the prizes in gambling.

This is true to an extent, Yes majority of gamblers I have met in my area and other places i have been to and in contact with are basically people looking for way to make money from gambling and don't have enough of funds.

I don't agree to this ,some of the rich gamblers I know don't gamble because they're addicted to gambling but rather for fun and another side income for them because if they win they have this opportunity of wining bigger money beacause of the amount of funds they have, vers versa, even big men I know don't play like the ordinary gamblers in the street ,they risk when their chances of winning is on the high side.
