Topic: Ever Thought of Giving Back to the Community? - page 5. (Read 504 times)

When I saw this thread I confess that I couldn't contain myself from laughing so much at myself, that's because when I bet and win, I only have to have a sequence of a few victories so that then I start a sequence of many consecutive defeats and I lose all my money. banking, so when I see this thread I keep asking myself how this guy makes a profit from gambling to the point of making donations? If he continues to have a sequence of defeats, I highly doubt that when he does have a victory, it would be a victory of a lot of money to the point of recovering all losses, I highly doubt that this will happen

If that happened, then he would be one of the few successful people in the world of gambling, and when we look at gambling and watch the news, we can see that the number of people who show off that they are successful in Gambling games are not people who play with money from their pockets. So the following question came to me: is this guy playing with money that comes out of his pocket or is he being sponsored by the casinos? I'm more inclined to think it's sponsored by some casino, I hope I'm wrong

Another thing that I had already mentioned a few days ago was that most people who play Gambling  and win and win a lot of money, they have this problem of thinking that they should keep making donations because that way they are giving thanks for the luck they have had. but they shouldn't think that way, they don't owe anyone anything, they earned it on their own merit

If I win big, of course giving part of my winnings to the community is not a loss at all, I really like giving and several times I have volunteered, I always dream of giving some of what I have when I get a big win while gambling, maybe I won't give a laptop (like what the person told by the OP did) but in the form of small money or vouchers. If we don't make a small contribution to the community then it won't be possible to get the help we need quickly, sharing is important.

I am actually giving back to the community and less privileged ones and if I ever win a huge amount then I’d still do. Maybe this statement is leading to how much would I be giving them if that’s so, it’ll be the same. We are not required to do so ‘coz that’s government’s job in the first place through our taxes. Also, not because you have a huge amount of money, you’d be needing to give them more than your usual. The amount should be something in line with your initiative also, there’s no need to win first before doing so; give if you can. Society’s expectations are just that big that it somehow guilts us but in reality, we are not tasked to do such.

Actually depends on the win whether it would really be that too big or would really be just that sufficient if ever on giving out that kind of step or movement on which you would really be
deciding on making just to act on giving something back to the community. Each person would really be that different when it comes to this matter on which it is really that unlikely for someone to give out so easily and imagine that 25 laptops? for 1-3 then yes but for 25 pcs? Then hell no! People cant really jus that be able to spend up that big just for others but since there are shows
like this then it do really happens. I would say that he's a generous man and does really have that kind of pure intent and theres no sign of hidden plans or whatsoever.
GIving to the community after a win then it would really be that entirely depending on a certain person.

Previously there was a thread where someone won big and then avoided their close friends because they didn't want the money to be shared, now there is a gambler who won big but gave back to the community, a complex story.

Maybe if I win big in gambling luck I will give a little tip to the community but it won't be as big as buying 25 laptops and paying for others because it's too much, we have to realize that in gambling we have lost a lot so this victory must be enjoyed but with a little tip given it won't be a problem because it doesn't cost a lot of money.

These are my thoughts, if other people want to share more then it's up to them, maybe other people will call you a philanthropist.

Whenever I gamble at the casino or play online, I never think about giving back to the community. My primary aim is not to win big but to enjoy the game and, if I am lucky, win a small amount that uplifts my mood and improves my day. Playing in the casino is a great way to unwind and take a break from the daily grind. However, suppose I win a significant amount of money, like hundreds of millions in my local currency or dollars through the lottery. In that case, I might consider making a charitable contribution to the community.

If i won something large enough then sure, wouldnt have a problem using some of it for a good cause. Right now ive just used it to do some rains and trivia style games for people in the gambling sites chats as the amounts won arent large enough to do anything else lol. Its pretty fun and makes the place become way more lively.

I think so. Naturally, when we have large sums of money under our disposal we tend to become generous on our spendings, unless the person develops a pathology which makes him to only accumulate money without planning how to spend it. Anyway, if I won the jackpot I would help people who I know and who appear on my way that seems to be in difficult situations and wouldn't waste the opportunity of having a helping hand willing to change their lives for the better. Sometimes I feel bad for not being able to give financial support to people as I would like.

if you won enough. it's not so bad to give back to what brought you here in bitcointalk. you would have to win millions for that. but maybe in the form of a contest here in the forum just to have some fun. there are businesses in here that did this as far as i know.

giving prizes from 1st to 10th place receiving BTC for the best meme i think this will be a fun contest for giveaways and you make everyone laugh too.
if i only won the biggest i think i can do this too this holiday season. my idea BEST SANTA Claus meme contest.

With all the money and crypto I've lost in gambling, I would probably think about myself first if I ever win a jackpot or large amounts of money or crypto in my gambling, that's how most lottery winners lose their money, they announce it to the world and then think of giving back to the community and then when the hype around them is over, there's nothing more for them to give to themselves. From that stories, I think that I will probably make sure that I have secured my future and my family's future with the winnings before giving back anything, let's not pretend that that's not going to be what we're going to do when we win big in gambling.

You're better off giving the money yourself to those who are in need, going to charities are going to make it more complicated and there's a lot of charities out there that don't really help what they've promised to help. Obviously you're not going to give bacj to the community if your wins aren't in the millions, that kind of money should be used to spend on your needs if not having a security for your finances. Be careful when you win lottery, you're going to see a lot of friends pretending to be your friend, you don't want to be a part of the long list of lottery winners that were too kind and too stupid to spend their wins that they've lost all of their wins in a matter of days, months or years.

Same as tipping.

Tipping in America is crazy, people who are playing casino landbase in vegas tip a lot to employers. I mean, that's is not our fault for a company who give them a small salary and remember once you're lose they're not tipping you.

IMO, the money came from gambling is better not sharing with other. As you know, you could be getting addiction and trying to demand your money back has been given to your friend or other.

Haha winning little also requires giving as little as it can be but the point is, it is almost like tradition for regular gamblers or addicts to give when they win. They see it as a social responsibility to other bettors to encourage or lift them up also. Sometimes that little money in gift go along way in the life of a gambler at least I know this for off line gambling.

However, a non regular player like you might not see it as some obligated impulse to do because you may not have received from others too. More like it is a routine thing for people who gamble regularly.

Yes, but not with gambling, unless I won the lottery or something, and in any case I would give it back to a charity or several charities, I don't think individually, unless I knew of cases directly, but I would try to keep it as secret as possible. The thing is that I don't gamble large amounts, so there's no point in giving back to the community if I win $100. If I won the lottery it would be a different story.

I love to and that's part of my plan if ever I win a huge amount of money, hopefully, I can do that on the lottery, it's ok and highly recommended to share your blessing with other people especially those in need, people will respect you for that and people will not look down on you anymore because of your being a gambler, they will even wish or pray that you win another jackpot again because they know that you will share your blessing to other once you win.
Winning huge is not something that happens every day for you so make it a memorable one by giving back to the community.

looking at my condition, if i was confident enough in my winnings and there was a sponsor like a casino platform that could give me free money, i might do what he did. because he does it not only because he wants to do it, but to increase his exposure and usually he uses the money he gets from endorsements, and that's what most gambling influencers do.

There's nothing wrong with winning big and exceeding the number of losses you've experienced, sharing with anyone is a good behavior that might bring other luck in gambling, but sometimes the winnings we get are not necessarily enough to cover the money we have spent while gambling, I know perhaps there is no need to remember or record the losses we have experienced so as not to think too much about recovering from them.

Personally, I often do that, sometimes I give a little tip to my friends just to release hot money from gambling, but if I win big, for example winning the lottery with a very big prize, where I can become rich because of the winnings, maybe I will share it with anyone. including communities, especially charity activities just to make your heart happier. 

If I get a big enough win in the gambling I do, maybe I will also do the same, sharing some of my winnings with the community as a thank you. because the community has played a big role in the victory I got. And as long as sharing makes me feel happy, why don't I do that?

And getting a big win in gambling, I consider it like I found money for free. So there's no harm in sharing some of the winnings I get.

I think it should work the other way around. Large winners from luck-based games are very few and sporadic. So if we want gambling to reliably have a positive impact somehow, those hosting the games (i.e. casinos) should maintain some programs to give back.

A casino has a steady source of income from people's losses. And having a stable source of income means that they'll be able to fund larger programs that can have a lasting impact communities. Giving someone a laptop once is very good also, but imagine a program that provides education and provides laptops every week. Hopefully more of the bigger casinos will adopt some such programs as they become successful.

Giving back to your community after a bug win from gambling depends on the individual. If I have plans on what to invest the the money I don't think that I will be giving that much to the community. It is normal that gamblers when they win big, they share a little part of their wins with people around them, and what that guy is doing as a gambler is not something new because they money was gotten in just one game and gamblers believe that such win is worth to be shared with some persons to make them happy. Gamblers are not known to be stingy people with their wins.

This is the first time I am reading that a gambler is giving out to the community.
Most of the times, gamblers keep gambling with the money they have won and then lose it.
Some also use it for their luxury but there are only few people who donate things to the needy.
