Do you really see gambling as more of fun than a means to a financial end?

how much can you put into gambling before it removes the fun aspect of gambling out of it?

Why not both? I mean if you really love that sport that you even play with it and at the same time you can make a bet for your favorite team or player, I think winning over it would be just an extra for you having fun but sure it involves both. As I've said you don't have to sacrifice the fun just to say you're earning out of it, you can let it stay with the chance of winning some money.

Winding down.

To be honest, gambling isn’t fun anymore if you keep losing from it. While it’s good to say that gambling is originally designed to bring us fun, but we can’t deny that majority of us are seeing it as an additional source of income. Even myself, I would be lying if I didn’t tell that I’m gambling for profits, but as much as I can, I want to gamble for fun and it would be a bonus already if I’m already making profits from it. Hence, we should gambling responsibly all the time.

It's also called a game, and the name game means just having fun and just entertainment. And only fools think that gambling is a place to make money/profit and multiply wealth. And by considering gambling as a form of entertainment, it can help us reduce the pressure to make financial gains. And this will obviously turn gambling into a recreational experience from an endeavor for profit. Realistically in understanding gambling, the results of gambling are often influenced by luck and most people who join the world of gambling, most of whom often experience losses in the long term. So I assume that gambling is not an activity that can be expected to provide profits every time we gamble.

By viewing gambling as a responsible form of entertainment, it is likely that we will be better able to enjoy the gambling experience without putting ourselves under unnecessary financial stress. However, it is very important to always maintain balance and be responsible when carrying out gambling activities, because if not, everything will turn into losses and regrets.

I have read a lot of thread on this board talking about the need to gamble responsibly and suggesting that gambling is meant to be done for fun and not to be seen as a means of livelihood. While this is theoretically alright, in the reality so many persons actually gamble because they want to get some financial top up from the gamble.

Often times, this is what is being said about gambling in this forum, should be considered as gambling for fun and not for the financial benefit attached to it. I don’t believe this even though this is what everyone is saying about gambling. If there was no financial benefit attached to gambling, a lot of people will not gamble today. Where is the fun there when you’ll be losing money and not gain anything back after spending your time in it. This is just a general say but the real facts about gambling is that; everyone that is into gambling is gambling to earn more money. Even the celebrities and elites that do gamble huge amount of money do all that to increase their total wealth.

True, interest wouldnt be there considering that there's no money involved or they could make money. Whether we do like it or not, this is how this world works on which interest would really be
simply revolving if money is involved. This is why it would really be that best that you should really know on how it should be dealt with and not really raising up those expectations and anticipations that
you would really be able to make money easily with gambling on which this is really just that different. This is why it would really be that important that you shouldnt really
really be expecting too much in gambling on making money, it is really just that for the sake of fun but people do really fail on doing so but rather doing
the opposite thing.

Do you see gambling as more fun than a means to a financial end?

This is a question that has generated different circles of discussion and it will be an unending debate since different people gamble for different reasons and the reason is dependent on the personal preference of the gambler. No doubt, the majority gamble for the aim of making money but then, there are very few who don't approach gambling with such a mindset and it is only the rich that fall into this category.

The above statement is imperative as it will make us understand that our opinion on this argument has nothing to do with the preference of the gambler. However, I gamble to make money because I don't have the financial prowess to gamble for fun but then, I realized that even though I gamble to make money I still have fun sometimes gambling.

The fun in gambling is lost as soon as 70% of a gambler's income is lost in gambling. Whether rich or poor, when more than one's earnings is lost in gambling, it can only create the opposite of fun, which is pain. The reason why it is widely acceptable that only the rich can gamble for fun is because the rich have the resources and can lose a fraction of it without having to worry but then, when the rich gamble with so much money which amounts to 70% of his overall wealth and lose, it can no longer be fun. He will cry like the poor.

What is mostly common in my neighborhood and that I mostly do is soccer betting and if I am not exaggerating, 90% of the people that do soccer betting do do because they want to win money.

The gamblers for money will be more than the gamblers for fun. but 90% is really high.

Quote from: Hewlet on January 26, 2024, 10:05:07 AM

They can watch the match for fun but as long as it involved them paying money before gambling, most persons don't normally see it as fun

These are the kinds of people that will grumble at paying bills in a fancy restaurant they took themselves to, or even willnever give themeselves the pleasure of experiencing some kinds of pleasure or leisure. Gambling is like paying to have fun, which is very common.

As gambling is concerned people can be too practical by saying it's for fun without knowing that what mostly drives people into gambling is the profit they benefits from it and believe me or not there will be limited people to gamble If they noticed there is no money coming out from gambling. I will sincerely speak that nowadays nobody gambles for fun everyone is looking for a way to double their income and therefore would try as much as possible to also place some bet whether their luck could be activated through gambling.

Gambling should not be treated for fun purposes or means to end the financial crisis.

In a much simpler context, you will need to take risks in gambling hoping and expecting a preferred result. Therefore only by chance to get that desired result. What needs to be put at risk? Our Money, cash, anything valuable, etc. Just for the sake of fun, we will risk our money? On the part of treating gambling to end financial problems, they will use the left money to gamble. Can't imagine what will happened if all those money will be wrecked in the process.

If it were easy for me to go through all the threads in which I have shared my thoughts with respect to the same topic, I could have done that and quoted each of them right here.

To sum everything up, I will say I see gambling as a means of fun and also as an opportunity to increase the fund at hand. If the opportunity to win and increase what I'm going to spend is not going to be available, then there is no point in gambling with money in the first place. I can just play video games with my friends or use casinos that offer free tokens for testing and experiencing what they have to offer.

The earning aspect is not being taken too seriously, as I already have other means of earning, but I can't deny the fact that I still desire to win, and the claim is only for fun, which will be me trying to lie to myself about something I truly know the truth about.

for me personally, yes, it’s just a pleasant pastime and no more in 99% of cases and only 1 percent is about trying to make money, it’s betting on boxing, here i can already try to make money, but such events happen extremely rarely and if I’m confident in a boxer, in a sleepy one these are bets for football and other gambling, but I don’t spend a lot of money on games, it can be 5-10% of the total monthly budget, no more.

We know, we also say that gambling is only for fun it's right. But in the end most of the gamblers I assume they do gamble for financial benefits. Once someone gambles for financial benefits and depends on gambling win/lose to livelihood means he is gambling-addicted.

I always gamble for FUN, since I mostly use Dplay lol. On the serious note, gambling for actual financial gain can be quite difficult and risky, and I would honestly not recommend it to anyone

Because I am not an active gambler, my perspective on gambling is only for fun and not a suggestion for achieving financial goals. There is no gambling term that can provide better financial goals and perhaps only luck in the wins we get. Awareness of being involved in gambling will be based on how responsible we are and if we are unable to do so then gambling is not fun but an addiction.

I prefer to spend a small amount of capital to gamble and I don't do it regularly because as I said above, my gambling involvement is only for fun when I have free time. Maybe there will be a lot of different answers when you ask active gamblers because they have different perspectives on the gambling involvement they play.

You have to see it that way otherwise you'll lose your bankroll because your motivation is to make a profit and that involves chasing your losses, when money is your agenda in gambling you will face a lot of pitfalls and will eventually gamble money that you can't afford to lose and that's where the trouble begins

how much can you put into gambling before it removes the fun aspect of gambling out of it?
For me, $100 is already a big amount I hope that I will be lucky so I will not lose that money it's more stressful playing with that amount and I will be pressured to try not to lose that money.

I would still consider gambling as fun even though I know we are still expecting from the betting winnings, but we must realize that this should not be a financial goal, if you still have a monthly salary why expect financially from gambling? If you gamble then think of it as fun.

The important thing is not much of your entire income, such as a small percentage of 5% then I think it will not cause problems for you, if more than 50% I believe you will expect too much from gambling because with the remaining 50% money it will not be enough to cover your expenses.

In my opinion, there are a lot of things that don't make sense and you have to question why they use gambling as a place to earn money, one of which is what makes you too confident that you will really always be able to earn money while on the other hand there is always no certainty that can guarantee it. results at the end of the session? Of course there are always two answers at the end of the session between winning and losing, you can achieve one of these two things at the end of the session which of course is the answer to your gambling involvement. However, gambling is a game of chance that involves risk, I would support your idea of "profitable gambling" if indeed gambling does not involve the possibility of risk, but isn't it not gambling if it doesn't involve risk?

Honestly I've seen quite a lot of topics like this but it doesn't matter and I will never get bored of always sharing my thoughts to lead to a straighter path in terms of approach to gambling. Another thing, the wrong approach can turn pleasure into tension due to loss, and for this problem what must be corrected in my opinion is the perspective and understanding of gambling. On the other hand, all gamblers want to win in whatever type of gambling they do, but the difference is that not all gamblers are "too pushy", so that means there are some of them who are too excessive and there are also some who are responsible and able to accept whatever the results are but they will not refuse. if you end up winning due to luck and would rather cash out than apply greed.

Gambling for financial purposes or for fun, in my opinion, the difference is only slight, but with the same end, most of what you get at the end of gambling is defeat, because this is clear, if by gambling you will only get defeat at the end, because The chance of losing is of course greater than the chance of winning. Of course there are risks, not just gambling, in my opinion everything has its own risks.

I agree with you, if we discuss things that lead to goodness then there is no harm because sharing thoughts is very necessary, even though there are people who tend to keep their thoughts to themselves that doesn't mean it's worth following. and indeed in my opinion many of them are those who force themselves to gamble to get big wins, if only they didn't force them to get big wins maybe there wouldn't be such a thing as a gambling addiction. isn't that right, friend?

I am interested in your saying that they cannot have fun with football because they have bet on it. I think this is a very sad thing. Gambling addicts are really bad people. They can't even enjoy something that should be fun like football. I don't know anyone who can enjoy games like football or MMA once they place their bets but to be honest I've never bet before and I don't think it will happen because I'm worried about getting addicted and having bad consequences.

On the time that you are already making gambling as a form of making money or livelihood or job then this is where shit things do happen. You cant really be able to make yourself that be able to achieve
on what you are trying to achieve because gambling is really just that purely in luck but since we are talking about betting then it wont really be shocking and this is something that would be pertaining
about into those people who could really actually be able to have that advantage comparing into those people who do make out such playing casino games on which there's no way that they could really be
able to take advantage or having the edge. There would really be no assurance to that.

Somehow there are really people who are really that playing gambling for the sake of fun, although it would really be just that only a few who would really be
able to have that kind of success when it comes to this on which there would really be those people that would be playing for fun and there would really be those
people who would be playing for the sake of money as simple as that.

Don't put "vs" in the subject as we should not compare the purpose of the gamblers to why they gamble.

I have noticed that those who are saying that they gamble for fun are not regular gamblers. I have never seen a regular gambler saying they are gambling just for fun. These regular gamblers are risking money on gambling in an attempt to reach their target satisfying win. That's more way fun.

Those who consider gambling to end the financial struggle depend on the financial situation of a person. If the said person is currently on the verge of losing hope, they will put their trust in gambling to save them from the problem. On the other hand, if not, I don't think most gamblers will consider gambling to serve that purpose.

Regardless of the reason why we gamble, keep responsible all the time.
