Gambling can be a hope restorer and will easily change life if you hope to get good winnings from gambling. But it is foolish to expect to win from gambling as it depends on luck and if gambling is a source of income you will get nothing but risk. It is not possible for a gambler to win continuously in such cases or after accepting constant losses people become depressed. While many gamblers benefit from playing wisely once a loss is never recovered it makes life more difficult rather than life changing. Gambling should be seen as a form of entertainment to make life better and find other sources of income instead of gambling.

Yeah I have read and heard about the same story where gamblers had a life changing events with gambling when they get the jackpot prize. It may vary from different games but most of them were from lottery that has hefty of a prize. But the thing here is we deserve to buy something for ourselves as a reward for the risk we took from the gambling itself. So buying something as  an investment or something that will make us and our family and friends  happy does not really matter when we have that win. You may not only save yourself but also others life.

Tell that to the poor or homeless, if they become a gambling addict, you're the one who should be blamed. Tongue

I'm sure most of users in this forum know how to manage money, so they won't gamble exceed from the amount that they can afford to lose. They might win, but the amount isn't enough to buy a bus or something expensive, but that's completely fine! you don't have to make money in gambling.

So winning that money he quickly went ahead to get a new bus to continue his public transport business. From his voice he seems like one whose lost hope has been restored by that single win. Gambling can be a life saver too for it's not as bad as non-gamblers portrays it. To all gamblers' when you get lucky make good use of your gambling win do not chase for double portion.
What is the need playing gambling when money won can't be use to solve important things in one's life. If after winning gambling and the money is spent on things that doesn't have value that means no need to play gambling because it is a total waste. It is not often people win in gambling and the lucky win should be something that can be use to solve or acquire anything that has value for the sake of having good memory of the win after all lost that occurred.

Some people feel they can spend their money won from gambling anyhow because they think they can always win money in their next game which is not suppose to be so. Winning gambling is not easy and this is the reason why people should value the money they won from gambling because it is something that can't be predicted, but a game of luck.

As a responsible gambler it gladdens my heart always whenever I hear a fellow gambler testify of how he won a bulky amount of money from be it a bet or lotto and uses that money to inject into something meaningful for himself.

But in reality, how many people does this, gamblers rarely win their games and for the sake of those that manage to, a little percentage of them make use of their winnings wisely, others sent back the money back to where it's coming from which is gambling and ended wasting it all for short time pleasures.

So winning that money he quickly went ahead to get a new bus to continue his public transport business. From his voice he seems like one whose lost hope has been restored by that single win. Gambling can be a life saver too for it's not as bad as non-gamblers portrays it. To all gamblers' when you get lucky make good use of your gambling win do not chase for double portion.

That is if he will not end up spending the money he will be earning from the bus back to gambling for an attempt on second chance opportunity of winning big, some people can be weird and that obvious, but if he's not the type, then he has made a right decision to spend wisely and prioritize investment.

Funny saying that gambling can be a hope restorer because I would like to think the latter when it comes to gambling although I won't actually blame gambling but the gambler instead because some gambler just lack the precision to know that the same act that people are happy about is the same act that can destroy you in a split second. Many people have hoped on gambling and so made it their life time thing that one day they would hit that big jackpot that will elevate them but the case always turn sideways as they tend to go crazy before that lucky hit comes.
It makes me sad to hear when some players see gambling as their last chance with the hope of changing everything for the better. We need to take gambling with extreme caution and prepare for the fact that it can bite us, and not see hope and salvation in it. If a player begins to think about this, he should stop playing immediately and think about what he is doing wrong. Perhaps he should go to work or get a better education so he can start living a normal life. But there are those who will not be able to do this, because they are emotional addicts, they will go into gambling all their lives with hope, this will continue day after day. But she never comes. I encourage them to think about it now.

Absolutely gambling can be a life changing something when the gamblers gamble carefully, but it's not good to put all hope it gambling because it will cause a serious pains when the gamble you predicted and think that the game will enter but at last cuts.
If there is a guarantee that gamble can change ones life from bad to good that means it can also change ones life from good to bad, when a gamblers who's doing well in their business or investment discides to put there hope in gamble by staking higher with half of the profits they are making from business, they will likely run at lose in the business and if the games they are betting is not won their business will run dry because there will be no profits.
But it is good to see the gambler use his winning wisely because that's one of the best things a gambler should do when they win a sufficient amount.

So for us gamblers, not all can really win big and turn his life around or help the individual himself just like what the OP describe in his stories. There are more gambling horror stories as compare to a few who get out of poverty because they win the lottery or just enough for them to change their lives for the better.

There's a lot of lessons to be learn and it's really up to us if we are going to stick with gambling and still continue to have hope for a better. Or stop because it's not the way to make our life, instead look for jobs, study harder and not pick up that first bet that will make us gambling addicts because we are chasing that big win.

There have been several cases similar to this and most times you can only relate with the joy people who win jackpot as long as you’ve had a single win from gambling .
Gambling is more of a two edge sword that produces both good and bad results which all depends on how wisely and safely we practice whatever we do and the ability to be consistent with whatever our safety practices might be is one way to stay profitable in the industry.
Well, gambling can be a hope restorer and also the reverse but it all depends on our attitude towards each scenario as well as how lucky we can be most times.

There are not many people like him in gambling and not all of them can take advantage of their winnings consistently, therefore we rarely find gamblers who manage to control themselves and win big and then buy something valuable or make money for it, to be honest this story is probably only a small part Only from winners who can really manage their winnings well and play responsibly so that they can recover their lost hopes.

I've never won big at gambling, even my friend, who has been gambling for a long time, even he won yesterday just to cover his debt, couldn't buy anything from his winnings, so I don't know, for me it's still hard to believe that someone can win big at casino games unless he is a streamer or influencer whose winnings are regulated by the casino they collaborate with. It's rare to see a gambler win big and then be able to build a business, let alone a public transportation business, that can make money consistently.

I think this story can be a slap and a reminder for other gamblers to play responsibly if they really want to be successful like the person in this story. No matter you are a beginner or a professional, it is important to be able to manage your winnings well.

Im cautiously optimistic about gambling. As with the person you mentioned, it can revive optimism, but there is a fine line between a life-changing win and addiction. Balance and self-awareness matter. Responsible gambling, as you said, is crucial. Understanding the odds and when to stop is key.

Your gambling advise is sound and realistic. Wins can be turned into a sustainable future by using them wisely. People who've turned their fortunes around are inspiring. However, remember that for every success story, there are many who struggle. Celebrate wins, but consider dangers.

The narration is similar to one on my country's local board where one of the crypto traders used his profit to fix things in his family. One thing to note in both stories is that maturity and experience play a role in how wisely or foolishly the individual spends his profit. If you are mature (in your 30s) and have some years of experience in gambling, you would have seen a lot in gambling and life and be able to set your priorities right.

However, I want to state that I am not in support of the topic title putting "hope" in it. When you talk about hope, you make it sound like there is a promise for every gambler that if they keep at it, whether gambling responsibly or irresponsibly, they will eventually win. There is no "hope" in gambling or a guaranteed promise for winning.

If you are a gambler, gamble responsibly, but don't think that you will eventually win a huge sum of money that will be used to buy an apartment. Such outcomes happen one out of every hundred thousand occurrences.

Not all stories about lotto winners are like that, the percentage of people who win a lottery who eventually lose everything they have is high, they are victims of what you call
sudden wealth syndrome
Quote
Sudden Wealth Syndrome (SWS) is a term given to a psychological condition where the overwhelming pressures of unexpected and/or abrupt fortune can develop into emotional and behavioural afflictions. It can also be referred to as an identity crisis
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sudden_Wealth_Syndrome

The sudden wealth puts them in a scenario with which they are not familiar and in trying to be acceptable to people they use their money to satisfy the people around them and themselves they become victims of overspending they are also illiterate in handling their sudden wealth.
It's good that your friend has not become of this syndrome, winning a jackpot is a lifesaver if you have a plan and you are a thinking and responsible individual, so all of us at least have time to create a plan on what we will do with the money in case they win a jackpot, the subconscious will implement these plans saving us from this sudden wealth syndrome
They should be wise and never get overwhelmed by the current situation, people I know in my city won megajackpot but what happen is he gives the money to all his relatives friends shared everything and then suddenly he got nothing and end-up broke but his relatives and friends became rich and never look back on him, so we must be very careful on spending those millions.

Even though gambling can be a hope restorer or a life changer, we must remember that it is difficult because we will be faced with defeats that can take our money at any time.
I agree with this view.  Grambling will always be a game of probability where the chances of losing is always greater than the chances of winning and that is why every gambler, rich or poor, new or old, has a pain to share. Though, some handle this pain in a way that it appears normal while others do not.

This tells us that before gambling restores hope, most of the time, it creates hopelessness and frustration which is why there is constant agitation to stop it. People are languishing due to gambling but then one cannot deny the fact that it has changed lives and restored hope to some persons.

It's like a fairy tale where he can quickly recover his condition because of unexpected things, but of the many gamblers with various types of gambling, only a few can make life-changing results, even if focusing on good bankroll management is not a guarantee of being able to make a profit. which if continued to be collected can be used to buy something that can provide passive income to us.
Stories like this will certainly inspire but hopefully not make people think of gambling as a way to change finances because this is a dangerous mindset because not all gamblers will face the same reality, maybe even the percentage is not up to 10% of those who can make a big profit from gambling, so just be inspired without changing the way we gamble because everyone has different limits.
The Op wasn't created with the aim to inspire gamblers to deviate from their responsible gambling norms and start chasing after wins thereby gambling irresponsibly because they also want to make a huge win like the gambler the Op talks about.

 But it's rather dispatching a message for gamblers that are in the course of gambling are lucky to win huge money, to judiciously make use of their huge gambling win putting it into a business or any project that can be fetching extra income to them and not to behave stupid like it's common with some gamblers that still continue to gamble away all the big win they were luck to win, all in the hopes of getting another bigger win than the previous only to end up losing it all.

This actually depends on the personality of the gambler. Some gamblers when they make wins can actually take note of their spendings and use them on useful things. However some others will definitely probably spend them on unimportant things like booze just like you mentioned.

Most times in reality when gamblers hit a jackpot,  the end up spending those funds in an unwise manner. It is common with most humans to value what they struggled for rather than what came easy. It takes a great deal of discipline and self sense of goal to spend such funds wisely. However that is not to say gambling wins can't restore certain things because it actually can.
When we use the money we win from gambling on things that cannot be useful, of course this will be very detrimental to ourselves, it would be better for us to use it for the needs we really need and leave a little for gambling if we still want to gamble.

In my opinion, those who use their big winnings on things that are not needed in our opinion, but they could do this, it will make them feel happy and it won't be a problem for them, but such pleasure is only temporary, if they can use the money they earn. They will wisely choose to use their winnings on things that can have benefits not only now but can last a long time.

Even though gambling can be a hope restorer or a life changer, we must remember that it is difficult because we will be faced with defeats that can take our money at any time. That is why we must be wise in gambling and must not have thoughts about making money from gambling. We should use gambling properly so that we don't use a lot of money because it makes us lose a lot of money. If we use gambling wisely and as entertainment, big wins will come to us so we can get a lot of money. And with a lot of winning money, we can use it for our needs to change our lives for the better.

It could be a hope restorer, I have so many good stories like this that happened to people I know but not many people ends up doing what they have in mind before gambling after they win some money, they will think they can still win more and they will risk the money back and all will be lost.

It's better to have that small hope in gambling and put more hope in something else, because not everyone will be so lucky, there are gamblers that have never made a thousand in gambling before and they have been doing this for years already.

All I am saying is that gambler should have little hope in gambling, don't be a fool, as lucky as you can get is also as loses as you can get too, keep risking what you can afford to lose, sometimes the doors opens where we least expected, you may get lucky in gambling but don't count on it as your solution.
