One of the reasons why people easily get addicted to gambling is when they start their journey into gambling just so they can solve their financial crisis.

Most of the people around me that are strongly into gambling and would even dress up in the morning as though they are going to work and go straight to the soccer betting shop are individual that don't have a job they are doing and that have seen people win big money through gambling and so all their mind is fixed at getting their own win also.

Some will even do small jobs just so they can get the money they will use in gambling with the mindset that it is through that gambling that they will be freed from poverty.

Once you find yourself in that condition just know that you are going to waste your time, money and energy in gambling and the reality is that most of the people that have a fixed mentality that they must win in their gambling are the ones that always loose their money in process.

Gambling is not a means to an end and their is no guarantee that you must win in the process so just do your prediction and enjoy the fun, if you win, thumbs up for you but if you don't win don't allow it get at you and don't assume you can always win back your money, learn and master the right time to walk away.

Some people really make gambling a job and there is nothing we can do about it, I'm sure they know within themselves that gambling shouldn't be a job but they do it because maybe they're addicted to it or maybe that's just what they think is the way to go it's easy to make money in gambling. It's not easy to get money from gambling for me but I don't know about others because many people do this, maybe for them it's easy to earn money from gambling.
only a small percentage use gambling as their main job and are successful. Most of those who try like that end up failing and losing their finances, which leads to crisis and frustration.
Remaining ready to lose money is a determining factor in gambling games. As long as you can't manage your finances well, you should not use gambling as a place to earn a fortune. because gambling only relies on luck.

As there isn’t a solid guarantee for someone to have a win whenever they gamble, one should be careful and aware of the amount of money being spent on the activity.
The number of people who take gambling as a means of making an income is frightening and should be a cause for worry. Wins are not consistent in gambling, hence the idea of gambling as a means of earning an income is not  viable.

Asides, a good majority of the people who take gambling as a means of making an income would at a point, slowly fall into addiction. Gambling is not a job opportunity. Wins in gambling, if any isn’t consistent compared to a paycheck earned from a regular job.

The fun fact is like that. When there are lots of reviews or advertisements or videos about jackpots and big wins from other people, most irrational people will consider and use gambling as a shortcut to getting rich/getting big profits. For rich people or those who have a lot of money, gambling may be fun and it doesn't matter if the money they use decreases because they still have lots of assets to have fun with. This is different from the poor who have been wrong from the start about gambling, so it is normal and this will not just go away and people will continue to appear who think that gambling is a job and a place to make money.
That is a marker strategy and a company makes use of its money to hire influencers to grab attention and make a play of its hype.
It was okay for rich people to fall into this activity but the concern here is for the poor people who usually fall into addiction and compromise their financial stability and sometimes, a reason for loans and crimes.

It was really hard to educate people on how gambling works because they also have different views and they keep insisting that luck will come and that is their money.
I think that was pretty biased. Rich people are still people too like us. And even if they are already rich, it is still possible for them to get addicted in gambling and lose all of their money. There are lots of cases like this already, not only limited to gambling addiction. For those who have a different view in gambling than us, I guess we can't do much about them.

Just let them go on their own and they will surely regret later on, once everything is gone on them. Yes, it's true that luck will come but it can only come rarely, most especially if their aim is the huge jackpot and the higher/highest multiplier in game. So, I wouldn't really hope for it and play at all times because I can surely lose more money in the process.

Yes, I will not deny that because this also happens in real life, I also have a very rich neighbor but he was addicted to gambling and eventually fell into poverty. From this story, it is important for us to continue to keep our minds sane and not lose our thoughts and control due to the deception of the game.

It'll be enjoyable when you're on the winning side. The same turns away when your win goes away. So, it is always good to consider gambling as fun and not as a means of making money. Always have your limits and enjoy gambling if your lucky to win something out of it. Don't follow your wager to recover what you've lost or do get greedy just because you were able to book some profit.

That's normal experience, but then again it's 50/50, as gamblers we want to win like every session that we will get ourselves to. But we all know that's not the case, most of the times luck will not be on our side and so we are going to lose and its going to be ugly and we don't want that feeling. Besides the emotional impact, this thread is also about how everyone should look at gambling, as it is not a means to and end. It can't give us winnings, and not a guarantee to bring food in the table for our families. So the OP is right, if we gamble, just have fun and don't treat it as something like a job because it's not, it's very unpredictable, as outcomes are influenced by chance, luck, and randomness.

As simple phrase this sound, 90% of gamblers here including me don't gamble for fun, maybe there is fun in the process but money is my motivation for gambling, if there is anything about fun then I know another place to have it and not from gambling. I know what some people will be thinking but hey! That's the reality many of us don't want to talk about, people gamble to make money and not because of the fun but it's bad when you use it as a source of income, I don't indulge in that because it's even foolish to have that thought.

Gambling is not a source of income but people that lack work and doesn't have job do it to sustain the financial pressure until things align back to normal. These guys are good in some way and naturally win from betting, what I even learn about them is that they don't bet on football as many sporybettors do, they bet on other less attention sports that people overlook, it's help their consistency in winning. It's hard to copy them though even when I tried because I don't understand the games the  play and I can't blindly follow what others are doing but they make money from it anyways.

Taking gambling too serious is a bad idea and has a negative influence on the gambler himself. Gambling is definitely not a job that someone would take so serious to the extent he wakes up in the morning, dresses up and the off to the casino like an office.

Gambling is supposed to be a fun activity done possibly during leisure. so when someone takes it too serious they could end up being an addict who just can't help but gamble even when he is not supposed to.

Sometimes gambling addictions rise up as a result of dependence on gambling as a source of income or livelihood. That is the reason people are advised to gamble responsibly.

It's fun if we win but unfortunately, we will experience defeat more often so it won't be fun but will bring disappointment and sadness. We should be able to think of gambling as entertainment and not gamble excessively so that we don't lose too much. But people don't realize this and instead gamble more and more often so they experience more and more losses. And we must indeed have limits when playing gambling so that we do not forget to determine when we should stop gambling. This is to prevent us from experiencing a lot of losses and can also prevent greed from arising bigger and more often.

Yes, that's how gambling is, if someone wins then he will feel happy and if he loses he will regret and feel sad. If the winnings are not used properly to invest or save, instead they are used again for gambling with the aim of increasing the winnings again, then he will experience the risk impact of gambling, namely losing a lot of money and big losses, instead. want it. to enjoy victory by having fun, it would be a downturn. what he will get. Therefore, it is not good to gamble greedily, it is better to accept winnings even if it is only a little and if you lose then stopping for a while would be better.

These influencers help the company get the attention of a certain desired customer base because there are some persons who will literally sign up on a gambling site because they see a certain influencer promoting such site but then they would have signed up but for the influencer whose influence means a whole lot of trust for them.

For people who are really bent on their beliefs and trust or faith in gambling it's really hard to convince them otherwise because they already have so much believe and trust in the fact that they are definitely going to win their bet one day and for them that's all that matters until they probably loose so much that they are almost not able to recover again then they will then have a second taught about their gambling habit because some of them actually know too well that there's an adverse effects to that which they are doing with gambling.
Influencers are paid by companies that own casinos to promote gambling, and usually influencers who have lots of followers will easily attract lots of customers to register at the casino, because usually fanatical followers always follow whatever the influencer does, so it's not surprising if gambling site carries out promotions through influencers because they believe that their gambling site will become famous quickly, especially if it is lured by the winnings obtained by the influencers, it will definitely make people more interested even though the winnings are not real and are just manipulation.

Indeed, some people believe that one day they will win the jackpot, therefore they don't give up on gambling and continue to do it until the money is completely gone and it makes them want to chase the losses they experience even more because he's addicted. If it's like this, of course they are gambling not aims to have fun but only makes misery for the gambler himself.

Seeing gambling as a major source of income is one of the easiest means of getting addicted, which is one of the mistakes many gamblers today make. Sometimes having a major job that gives you one income and keeps you busy all the time is a good way to avoid getting addicted to gambling.
 
But when one doesn't have a stable job that gives them income but rather chooses gambling earning over a good-paying job, that's when they start betting with desperation because their means of survival depends on it, and all of that, if they don't win a day, they end up going to bet hungry.

That's right, don't make gambling a job because it really shouldn't be done. I don't know why most of the gamblers actually make it a job, is it because it's easy money in gambling or is it really just an addiction. You can't say it's easy money in gambling because you don't win every day, you don't get lucky every day. Gambling can be used as a pastime because that's what it should be.

I am wondering why they would stress themselves up, dressing up every morning just to pretend as if they are going to work only to land in a casino, why can't they stay indoor and do their thing online? When I started my online business years ago, many people start gossiping around that I am jobless, I don't mind them and today they are the one who are jobless, the situation of the country suddenly changed and they are making too less to none.

Online jobs are better than offline jobs, and in the near future everyone will have to submit to this, the best skills that make the most money are online based, anyway.

Many people don't know anything about gambling, they just see someone who won a lot of money and they decide to give their shot too, nothing bad here though but they proceeded in a very bad way, resulting into losing all their money, seeking for knowledge first is what many people don't respect and they pay the price the hardest ways.
I think it's quite important to remember that we are talking about people who do it online too, but just as a way of making money. I know plenty of people who do that for sports betting for example, there are a lot of people who end up with betting and winning some money and they act like that's quite easy and doable but in reality it is not, it is not going to end up with something that will get better.

I hope that we can realize that not all humans are same, and some people who are addicted to gambling could fail to leave. You may end up getting some win here and there, which could make you feel like you could do that, and if they hate their job as well, then they will try to turn that betting into some sort of job.
Actually there are really those people who do able to make money with sports betting on which i could say that it is really that more probable comparing into those people who do believe that casino games are way more better. It is really just that there were people who are really that believing into things which arent supposed to believed on or simply they are really that just that too optimistic until they would really be able to bust up themselves. Actually there were really those gamblers who do able to make a living with gambling, it is really just that only a few could really be able to do such thing and most of those people who do try
did really bust up themselves just because of overdoing it or simply just dealing with those luck based games.

We do know that when it comes on sustaining then i do believe that sports betting and card games could really be having that chance comparing into those casino games.
You would be able to sustain yourself if you have developed your skills and experience and a mix of luck then you could sustain but not all
do really become successful on this one.

Are you a gambler? Have you ever felt like you got the jackpot?

If you are not one of the above then I see your topic is actually not very useful, many people gamble for their entertainment and also to double their money (this is the wrong goal) but making gambling their main job I think is really crazy, when you gamble, there is the dopamine hormone at play and that is what makes gamblers very entertained when playing, gambling is not a bad activity, but the goals of each player are often bad and ultimately make him lose money when gambling.

Everyone is of concern in this, because anybody could be a victim; rich or poor. Battling with a problem is not cool for the human brain and behavior. It's necessary for gamblers to understand that their status doesn't change the problem. A rich person can get addicted and divorce his productivity at work. Wouldn't it affect his wealth on the long run? it's not certain if all the rich people would be able to struggle out of addiction successfully. Money can do everything, but we all need time to heal. Without time nobody gets better or worse on what they do. Since gamblers need time to adjust and understand gambling, a naive rich player can get himself into trouble during the early stages. Given time he'd begin to get better or worse.

Of course it will also be difficult to understand gambling. If it were easy, I'm sure there would be lots of people who would become rich by gambling. Of course the gambling provider has updates and always changes the probabilities all the time to make gambling more interesting and fair. And not everyone will understand each of these changes, they need to adapt again and observe again so that the chances of winning are higher than losing. Again and again, rich and poor will remain the same, except for the expert gambler.

I think on the other hand the real fact is that gambling is not a place for anyone to get rich, but most of the gamblers carry this goal, they want instant wealth in gambling and this is wrong, there is absolutely no correct understanding of what gambling really is. In my opinion, understanding gambling will in no way affect your success in being able to get a lot of winnings, but this understanding is only intended to keep you safe and not experience many adverse effects from your wrong gambling activities.

As you understand that gambling is a game of probability exactly as you said and by understanding that it means that there is absolutely no certainty and guarantee of any victory, the fact is that no matter how good you are, if you are involved as a player then obviously there will only be two answers in the final result between winning or losing, so try not to put any hope in gambling especially assuming to achieve wealth, it is nothing more than a ridiculous idea I think. On the other hand you must understand that in gambling the winning percentage will always be much lower than losing and this is also the reason why more gamblers lose than win, because after all this is a business for casinos to make profits from losing gamblers, and I would say that you can get a higher chance of winning until you can reach wealth then you have to become a bookie yourself and own a casino, this makes more sense.
