For me,gambling is not really a waste of time and money if you just gamble for fun and pleasure.Satisfaction is what most of the people are looking.And having to gamble even for few hours will not make us lose too much.I think that's already enough not to be addicted with it.

It might seem that it will not make you addicted if you keep a bankroll management method. However when someone loses money they will try to make it back because it is their hard earned money and they would never want to let it go. Thats the biggest problem. They cant let go of their losses in gambling but they try to make it back.

When we run after the loss we waste more money and time. That why this notion is there that gambling is a waste of time and money. People have their opinions on it and its their personal judgement.

Many people gamble for different reasons, some look at gambling as a way to relax and to enjoy one or few hours. These are persons who have great self control. Other people look at gambling to make that extra money to complement their earnings or salary. These kind of persons are the ones who usually become addicted in the end although they start with small amount of money.

Last are the persons who never gamble and think gambling is a waste of time.

I think we could still gamble in our free time and we don't have to use gambling as the source for making money because there is no chance for us to get that money. All we can do play the game, enjoy the time and leave when the time comes. And if we can do this, I think we can prevent from losing too much money, and we come back in the other time, and we can play the other game. I think it's not a waste of money and time if we can manage our time and money so we could still enjoy the game.

I rarely gamble, and when I do, I set a limit and never go over it. To me, it's just for entertainment. If I win big, I cash out and leave.

This is the perfect case where people can even gamble and have the best of the time rather than making it worse by playing just to make money and get in trouble. This is really great example you have set for other who specially are addicted or think it is a money making machine should learn from it.

That has always been the problem of a lot of gamblers. The reality is what OP has just stated, so it is left for you as an individual to either accept that reality and know how you can control yourself by limiting your approach to gambling, rather than trying to focus too much on winning. If you already know the possible outcome of something, the chances of not pushing yourself too hard will not be there. Unfortunately, a lot of people today came with the winning at all cost mindset which is why we have gamblers who are pretty prone to getting addicted today.

You rarely gamble and how much is the limit you have said? It's not a waste of time and money if you are going to have this cycle. But I doubt it that you can repeat and continue this cycle.

No one is "immune" from falling into the trap, and once it happens it could ruin people's lives, big time.

It only comes if the gambler isn't disciplined with what he's doing. But this is fact that usually happens.

You have a way to ordain your free time with what you want and always do it before, gamblers also have the time to spend gambling. To do the thing you want and you are already an addict in that case, I guess you will put aside the problem of money, profit, or loss. The most important thing is that you are satisfied with what you do. This is the same as gamblers, they will not worry about the most important loss they sit and bet.

Money, profits, and losses cannot be ruled out in gambling even though he is a gambling addict. Nobody really gambles just for fun, if they gamble then profits are the main thing for them to feel the real pleasure. Gambling is not just about wasting time and money if you gamble with high confidence, even though they lose but they will realize that the day is not his lucky day.

Of course that i used to gamble for profit purposes before, because it was an easy way to make a huge amount of money (probability to double up in less than a second)

But once that you realize how bad it is, then you start being a little bit more sceptical and you dont want to risk that much. It is all a cycle

Seeing how the odds are pretty often against you in gambling as the gambling services are for making money out of you and not the reverse, do you still decide to gamble? If so, why?

if you got involved in this topic then it will be difficult to move away from it...gambling is very luring and the first couple can raise the jackpot and then lose everything)so it's better not to start playing)

I am also a gambler and i really do think playing gambling is just a watse of my momey and time, that is why i only play gambling if my friends started to ask me to go with them to have fun but i don't push myslef to use a lot of money in playing.

Well if it does give you a good time when you play with your friends then i don't think it's a waste. As long as you can afford the time and money you put into it and it gives you a good feeling. It only becomes a waste when you go beyond proper reason and you put in a little too much.

Yes, if you have fun when gambling with friends there isn't any waste on it. It's a pleasant activity like any other people do during their spare time. Some people like to go to the movies, nightclubs, malls, while others prefer to gamble (and on each of these activities you will have to spend some money anyway...). The important is to spend money with things you enjoy, even gambling.

I was gambling with faucet/airdrop money, then lost these small sums with dice and so I've not looked forward for other gambling sites/systems. BTW I keep watching the industry as I find the provably fair concept extremely important and necessary.

I don't think gamble is wasting of time and money. For me, it's a good way to relax

). Everytime when I have trouble or stressed, I often play dice or sport bet. It's really work no matter win or lose, I don't know why but it make me feel better at the end

. Of course I'm not a gambleholic so I feel normal although I lose or win.

You have a good approach there, keep it up! I also prefer gambling to many kinds of activities which people normally use to loosen up a bit, and I really feel better and can work more productively after playing dice or poker for a while. And it doesn't matter whether I win or lose as long as the amount I lose during a day is less than 5% of what I earn in one day. In some cases I can lose up to 10% of my daily earnings, but I try to make that happen as rare as possible.

In fact, gambling can be "a waste of money and time", but it depends on you whether you make it as such or you make a harmless entertainment out of it.

You just have to treat the rake, which makes the odds look like they're against you, like the casino free that you pay to enter and play. They need these money to pay the dealers, clean the floors, pay the bills. It's a good idea to bet low and just have fun. You're going there to have fun, not to become a millionaire all of a sudden.

Casino owners created their gambling sites mainly for the reason of earning money from their customers, that is the reason most gamblers are losing money instead of winning when they are playing in a casino due to the house edge, I still gamble in a casino despite having the house edge against me as it is exciting and entertaining to play some of my favorites games, but I am strictly gambling with only the money I can afford to lose.

"Use only the money that we can afford to lose" This had been always the golden rule when we do play gambling but lots of people do still failed up. Gambling is for enjoyment
and self control would really be suggested because if you do let yourself pall into the pit of addiction then it will surely change up your life.It isn't really a waste of time
if you do gamble on your vacant time.

Some people think of it as that way, but for other people, I think that gambling to them is not a waste of money and time but rather a chance to increase their income and when they fail they end up having no money and doing the same thing all over again once they have their hard earned cash to gamble with.
