Topic: Do you gamble because you don't have sufficient money? - page 41. (Read 7205 times)

If lucky, they will get a lot of money. But most of them will experience defeat and spend money on gambling. That's why they also have to consider the risk of loss that must be accepted so they can control themselves to avoid losing money. And we still can't beat the casinos as bookmakers because that is their business and even if we can win it will be our luck and nothing more.

People can gamble whenever and wherever they want, but they must be able to give an adequate portion for gambling and not overdo it. And they shouldn't think of gambling as a source of income because that won't work for most people. Better to just think of gambling as entertainment.

Well that's right, you said the right thing about it. I'm sure everyone including non-gamblers and especially gamblers are sure about this, no one can earn a steady income just by gambling, it's impossible and if it can be done it will only apply to those bookmakers. I honestly never thought that there are some of them who have that mindset, if you have that mindset and then believe in it then I'm sure the downfall will be upon you. It makes no sense that someone can make a consistent income from gambling by just relying on luck in it, winning is a gift and the gift will not always come unless the luck comes.
So start to think healthy, gambling is created just to entertain when we feel bored or fill the spare time and in return we will get a prize, don't chase the prize too much because there will be a lot of money you sacrifice there.

Yes, it's true that gambling cannot be used as a source of income to make a living, let alone a place to find wealth, the risk of gambling is far greater than what we imagine, so don't gamble if you still have that mindset, because in the end it will be easy to lose when gambling and can make someone become a gambling addict because they experience that defeat.

Always remember that the dealer will always win, so don't think that gambling can bring in money and become a source of income because that won't be possible, there are many risks that must be understood so that you can understand when you experience defeat, let alone lose in a row until the money runs out. change the mindset to be healthier, make gambling just a place to find entertainment.

This is actually the most extreme way to do it but there are still many people who do it because they only see the positive side that if they are lucky they will even get very big money from it which makes them not think about the worst and most likely about the risk of losing that must be accepted.
It is important to realize that casinos are also a business and the croupiers are the ones who benefit the most (because no one wins from the croupiers) but there are still many naive people who do not look in this direction just because of their ambition thinking that gambling is one of the ways that they think is the most appropriate.

I am not forbidding everyone to gamble but I would also like to remind that gambling would be better not to do if it is only for profit because gambling cannot be used as a source to improve the economy and this will only make it miserable in the end.

It is not strange that some people want to multiply their money through gambling because they see gambling as a fast way to make money. But they don't realize that gambling is only for gambling and not for making money. Especially if they borrow money from other people or casinos because that will only increase their losses, and only some gamblers can control themselves. We must be able to be responsible gamblers and control ourselves in gambling too. It will certainly prevent us from losing more and also we can learn more about self-control.

It is very strange for those who want to multiply money through gambling, this will not increase the money that occurs instead they lose money, I agree with you if gamblers need large amounts of money why don't they look for loans and manage these loans well, of course it will be very better than gambling. I think only some gamblers can control themselves in gambling, if they can control themselves in gambling, of course this will minimize losses for gamblers.

I have done it. Money is the prime objective with which we're valued as well as things were happening around. When there is requirement of money, automatically our minds will think of the easiest way and the same moves them towards gambling. Few will be successful while majority of the gamblers will be losing.

But you dont seem to grasp the complexity of this thinking. People borrow money to "chase losses." The range is huge!
So players should just take bank loans? This oversimplifies money and why some people can acquire loans. Abuse is a significant part of it, but blaming "greed" for everything a gambler does is foolish.
Many gamblers comprehend risk and reward, despite impressions. Adrenaline, uncertainty, and planning make it more than money. You might need to understand more about gaming's multifaceted world and its many players!

We cannot blame them because they only have their own selves to blame for their own action because by doing that, they are just opening the gates towards an unwanted path that they don't want to be in but for the sake making money even if the odds are not that good, they are willing to take those chances and hope that they might be lucky enough but we should always remember that most people have failed because it is not a wise thing to do in the first place.

A lot of people usually gamble because they need money and sometimes gambling is the only way they see to earn profit. We can't blame them because maybe it's their only choice and they are too desperate to have money. But again, this is not advisable because they are in high risk in losing everything they have. In my case, I only use my free money for gambling and swore to myself not use my money that are reserved for important things.

Op this discussion made me laugh out louder while i was reading the first 4 lines from your post, anyway everyone needs money either from business or gambling, no money is big enough to quit more profits, even the world richest person is looking for ways to make more money because the more you have money the more responsibility joins together so you can spend the moneys on it.
Gamble is something people do once in awhile to see if he can make gain from it thats why I called it try your luck, we use our hard earned money to try our luck on gamble to see if we can make gains from it and if we don't make any gain than lossing we quit for that moments and try again letter so we won't end up losing the one we were supposed to you for trying another day.

If we truly valued our hard-earned money working, we would not decide to gamble and instead choose to use that money for things related to our family. But even so, there are people who will still allocate some money to be used for gambling and it doesn't interfere with their finances because it is their budget for gambling. And they can also stay within their limits while being careful not to go over their budget. And if they are short of money, they will not use gambling to make money, but they will look for other sources of income that can bring them more money.

It will only give us bigger problems by taking loans to gamble. We also won't know how big our loss will be because we could have used all the borrowed money to gamble and not use it to make something that can make money. The burden of debt on us will be great if we cannot pay it back because people who lend money usually ask for interest on the money we borrow. But if they don't charge interest, it won't be so burdensome, but still, it's a debt we have to pay them. Making money from gambling probably won't work for most people, so we have to think of other ways to make money instead of gambling if we are short of money. Precisely if we are short of money, we must be able to find sources of income that can be a place to make money, and we know that gambling will not be a promising place to make money.

Other way round, gamble only excess money thats why its ideally suited to crypto I think.  I dont want the hassle of transferring crypto back to paper money so if I bet I do it in crypto value first before I would gamble paper money.   Paper I save for bills paying because obviously most high street firms only want to accept paper also its constantly losing value thanks to modern central bank theories to destroy the capital of the common worker, lovely people.
  If you lack capital, either dont gamble or reduce your risked amounts until you either start winning more or you regain a better source to bet with.  I get the theory OP is referencing and arguably poor people spend more on alcohol also and lots of other similar spending habits but we are just talking about percentages.  The rich stay rich often because they can invest large amounts as completely spare, your average worker often spends every penny its not exclusive to gambling use.

Using borrowed money to gamble is very wrong because you can lose the borrowed money and you'll now be in debts. Only use your spare money to gamble. Money that won't cause you much thinking when you lose them that's the money we are meant to use in gambling.

Gambling can be used to generate income for a professional that's taking gambling very serious. Gambling is meant to be use for fun and entertainment but it can also be used to support your daily life income but you shouldn't depend on it because it's not certain.

I can gamble because I have sufficient money and will be willing to risk losing those that I wager and I can also gamble because I don't have sufficient money at that moment and I'm looking for a means to double the money I have at hand so reason for gambling isn't limited.

That's why they take 'risks' - they want to win something from the little amount that they have in hopes of making it big and paying whatever needs to be paid and still keep some of that money. This is the start of problematic gambling for people: not being able to pay for their bills or expenses and then take risks in hopes of doubling their money. They win one time and think that they can do it again until such time that they go in debt and not be able to pay their bills and incur some debts on the side. I've seen it happen to some people and it's devastating how much destruction uncontrolled gambling cause to people.

Someone once said that every individual who gambles is only gambling for the sake of money and not for fun. I think that's a bit correct (90%  ), but there's also the fact that some people don't just gamble because they are really very concerned and interested only in winning. I have seen someone who is working and earning well in his job, but the guy is still a gambler, and I find it difficult to believe that people like that are gambling primarily for the sake of making money from it. Although they gamble and have an interest in winning, but they have enough money to finance all their needs and pay bills. They are earning well, but since gambling is just part of them, they can't stop it. I think there are people who are just gambling for fun, and if they win or not, they will still go to gamble any time they have the time.

Casino's goal is to make every gamble. Whether you are among the haves and have-nots, you are considered a gambler and you are already in their database as among the users who gamble and it's just a matter of time and promotion, it won't take much to convince them to play.

Those who gamble for leisure travel hundreds of miles away only to gamble in a resort casino. A China man flies to Nevada only to play poker in Vegas. Pretty sure they have sufficient money to fly around so why not travel to Egypt to witness ancient pyramids for leisure, they chose a casino.

Demo accounts are not considered to be real accounts and at that, we may have diverse opinions on what class the games belong either to be categorized as gambling or just games playing,  but I think that demo accounts are not real gambling since there is nothing staked on demo.

And on the topic of whether or not playing games for pleasure could be categorized as gambling,  well to me yes gambling is gambling as far as you involved money in the form of the staked amount.

Of course we know that gambling on demo account is not regarded as gambling,bI think that can pass for a practice for the real substance which requires money and emotional attachment most times.

However, those who gamble just for leisure, can we really regard them as gambler? Like if you are a gambler then you are aiming for a reward both monetary or material wise, so that is the point whether people do gamble because they have financial craving that they want to double their money or they just gamble even though they have sufficient to take care of themselves and family.
