First of all, I would like to say that for those who think that gambling will change their financial situation as well as make them very rich by gambling, I would like to dispel this misconception. Follow the background of those who are successful, be it in your neighborhood or in your country or in the world, but no one has become so successful by gambling. Look at those around you who are in a better position than you, or in whose position you consider yourself, to see how much effort and risk they have taken in life to get to where they are. If you want to get into his position by gambling instead of working as hard as he did, I'd say you're living in a fool's paradise. Instead of spending extra money on gambling, invest that money in your business and if you lose money after investing in business, it is not a problem because you can learn from it. When you are successful in business you can gamble if you want but you need to arrange the right source of money to gamble.

Yes, that misunderstanding is what makes people end up experiencing many disasters due to putting false trust and hope in gambling, you suggest a good idea here and of course I totally agree with your last idea that no one has managed to achieve long-term success just by gambling, and if you really want to be successful in gambling then there is no other way than to become a dealer as the owner of one of the casinos.

The reason is clear that there is no consistency in achieving victory in gambling, in the end, defeat will always be a possibility that you will definitely experience and even it can happen to you much more often and that is why sometimes you win and sometimes you lose, meaning is it not reasonable to say that there will never be success or success in an activity that has no certainty and guarantee whatsoever? I think that is clear, and the point is I hope people can still maintain their common sense well because only then will they be able to distinguish about which place is worthy of dedicating themselves to achieving success.

With gambling gaining awareness each day and the population of those gambling increasing it's calls for concern as many has fallen victim to this money sucking game that makes people not to save their money but loss it.
But let's take a critical look at this very sensitive matter called gambling has anyone really made it from gambling, is gambling worth it and if really anyone has made it through gambling can he/she proudly tell the younger ones that gambling is what going into.
Infact gambling has made many to go broke and live in poverty many has lost their life savings and even pension in gambling, I am of the view that gambling should be controlled by the government of each country and that there should be a maximum amount of money one should use in gambling.

Gambling isn’t a reliable way to get rich, and it rarely leads to lasting wealth. How many people have actually gotten rich from gambling? Only a few, while most wealthy individuals have built their success through business or investments.

Gambling is meant for entertainment and the thrill of taking a chance, but many see it as a way to make easy money, which is far from true. It might feel like a shortcut, especially with the rise of online casinos in my country, but in reality, countless people end up losing significant amounts of money. People often believe they can outsmart the system, but gambling algorithms are designed to favor the house, making it almost impossible to beat in the long run.

Yes, as I said above, it is unlikely for an addicted gambler to realize that they are trapped in a cycle of addiction, and the reason is clear that their obsession with winning is what prevents them from achieving that awareness.

On the other hand, it does not mean that it is impossible for an addicted gambler to take unexpected actions such as selling a house or other valuable assets, we must understand that all decisions will always be possible to do when someone's common sense is gone. Another thing is that you believe that knowledge and understanding are very important and mandatory for a gambler to have, because that way mistakes in making decisions should not occur

An addicted gambler never understands the main harmful side of gambling, they become so addicted to gambling that they do not hesitate to sell their assets like their car, house, or more valuable assets, because they do not understand that He is going to lose everything. An addicted gambler can make any unexpected decision while gambling, because they have uncontrolled emotions due to gambling addiction, so they cannot make the right decisions and understand the right things, and slowly lose everything. So we have to see gambling only as a source of entertainment and those who are already addicted, they cannot suddenly come out of gambling completely, they have to gradually reduce gambling and try to come out of it.

Yes, it is true that their eyes are closed and cannot see the negative side of gambling, in fact they know that they are very likely to experience defeat but the problem is that usually the beliefs, trust and hopes of a gambler who is addicted are very high towards victory so that it prevents them from realizing the negative side of gambling.
Various unexpected decisions will indeed be very possible for a gambler to do when they are addicted, so in this case there are two possible situations that can make a gambler recover, or what is meant is that there is a possibility for them to recover before they run out of all the valuables they have through various suggestions given by others when they are indeed able to achieve their awareness at that time, or the last possibility is that they may only realize when they have experienced a very significant downturn such as losing various valuables, experiencing destruction in family relationships and other disasters.

So gambling addiction is something that may take time for folks to amend. But when you are been able to overcome those addiction you will yah self living in a more healthy way.

Living with addiction takes up time to build and as well heal. Gamblers, some, stay compulsive for years, and tend to normalize the lifestyle. Which turns out a disorder that'll require the help of experts to save the person. However, surviving addiction, not only help health wise, it tattoos a lesson on the player's memory. Most survivors never go back to compulsive wagering.

habits will shape our destiny
most should probably stay away from gambling...

Yes, I am a responsible gambler but from what I see many people would do much better not to gamble and invest that money in DCA bitcoin instead. They would gain a lot more. For me it is not a problem because one thing does not prevent me from doing the other but then you see stories in this forum of people who have problems to pay their gambling debts and you think that being in a bitcoin forum, having done DCA with the amounts they have been betting would have changed their lives. Instead of being in debt and depressed they would be in profit and happy to see that we are in bull run and breaking aths.

They will not realize that they are addicted to gambling, but I think they will realize when they have lost a lot of money or even assets that were previously owned that were sold because they were gambled on. I am sure that everyone who is addicted will experience where they can realize that everything they have done is too excessive to the point of bankruptcy that they should not have. Most people who gamble tend to experience losses and indeed some of them have their lives destroyed, this is not desired but many experience it.
It is very wrong of course to think that gambling is a source of steady income, while the existing victory cannot be obtained with certainty. Whether they are rich or poor, no one can get consistent victory in gambling, it is something that is very unlikely to happen.

That is right because they only know about playing gambling and win some money. They will not thinks about the risk of losing the money but will keep trying to win every time they lose their money. But if they can realize of what happens to them and start to reduce their time in gambling, they will have a way to stop gambling and search for the other sources to make money. They will realize that gambling is not a short cut to solve poverty but gambling is only one of many ways for have fun and release their stress.

Most likely indeed people who achieve poverty because their gambling only thinks that they will be able to win without thinking that the risk of loss is greater opportunities. In addition, if indeed at first they had thought of victory, in my opinion it is unlikely that they will be aware of the actions that they will do are at risk, because when thinking is like that, it is likely to be attached to the length of The results continue to disappoint and continue.
I am sure there is a chance they will realize but cannot be ascertained when the right time, this can happen when they have lost a lot of money or with those who are before gambling but this is very unlikely.

The good and bad of gambling can be handled consciously by each individual but when addiction has struck it will become a big problem in life. Many people gamble just to have fun with their co-workers and usually they spend their weekends just to enjoy the fun. If we are aware that gambling can have bad effects and will spend the money we have then try not to get involved in it. This awareness is formed from each person's psychology and when we ourselves are unable to control it then don't expect others to be able to keep us away from gambling.

Gambling addiction may be less likely to occur when you are mature enough in age as you have an environment of your own and are responsible for all the functions including maintaining the family. Gambling should be seen as a means of fun and entertainment without wasting extra time and money. Gambling with colleagues can be more positive for you as not all of them should be addicted and it can help you become more aware.

Keeping yourself away from gambling shouldn't take away your chances of real success as a form of entertainment you should have in your life. However, the allocation of time and money to protect yourself from addiction should be limited.

Yes, even though a gambler tries to be good and right in overcoming his addiction, it is possible that this step can minimize the occurrence of major problems in his life later because there is no impossible word in fixing the wrong if the gambler really wants to change.
However, if a gambler who is still doubtful about the results in stopping gambling, I think it is already a severe addiction and it is not easy to overcome cases like this, all that exists is a waste of time

Gambling addiction is not a easy one depending on the gambler though, I always come from the initial state like for instance what was their motive that kept time going in gambling, most people is the fun part in gambling (the entertainment) that usually kept some folks going while some are the money they may win from it because gambling is all about, luck so either you win or you lose . So gambling addiction is something that may take time for folks to amend. But when you are been able to overcome those addiction you will yah self living in a more healthy way.

It's not and the process is not as easy as it is, but like you mentioned if ever that you manage to overcome your addiction and able to work well with how you handle both your time and your finances, chances that you'll be able to make things better, there are experienced gamblers who manage to use this experienced as basis on how to face difficult situation, those who can handle it the right way will gain opportunity not just to enjoy but also to earn decently, but in terms of mismanaging both time and finances, surely it will lead you to poverty a shortcut way as it can happen with a glimpse of your eye, a single mistake will lead you to lose everything you've got.

One of the reasons why it is quite difficult to realize that they are trapped in a cycle of addiction is because they still have a high obsession with winning so that they will continue to think that their actions and approaches are still reasonable even though they are actually an excessive approach to an activity that is only probabilistic and of course the impact will certainly damage their economic situation in their lives.

On the other hand, what you said is true that addicted gamblers are willing to do anything to realize their desire to continue gambling, and this is also the reason why there are always some gamblers who end up becoming bad people such as robbing or doing various illegal acts, the reason is none other than to get money to continue to facilitate their gambling desires, and in the end it is certain for them to be in debt and experience a situation that is much worse than before.

When a gambler is addicted to gambling, the wrong things he is doing will not seem wrong to him, then everything will seem right to him. He will then gamble in such a way that gambling is oxygen for him and he will not receive oxygen until he can gamble. A gambler, however, does not sell his house or borrow money from others to gamble unless he is excessively addicted to gambling. Those who have fallen into this type of addiction and those who have recovered from it may well realize now that the mistake they made at that time was the biggest mistake of their life. Still those who are new should gamble normally without getting too addicted to gambling. A gambler will have enough time to gamble so he needs to think beforehand as well as get enough knowledge about gambling.
After doing these the gambler has to decide to gamble so that at least he does not get addicted to gambling.

Unfortunately, the situation with addicted gamblers is getting worse because doctors don't know how to help them. After all, these doctors don't know the theory of games, they haven't experienced addiction to gambling. And that's bad, because it doesn't stop clinics from taking huge amounts of money from gamblers. However, now, inveterate gamblers have started giving interviews where they admit their mistakes and thereby cleanse themselves. They believe that this way they will become sincere and learn to control themselves.

Of course, to eliminate or stop addiction in gambling is very difficult and requires a very long process for maximum results, besides getting help from a doctor I think it is a less efficient step if you do not have the intention to heal in your own heart and mind because what is actually curing the addiction to gambling is from within ourselves not from the help of others or doctors.

Agree with you, basically a gambler who is addicted does not realize that his behavior is wrong and certainly the consequences of the addiction he has suffered so far will have a very bad impact on his life when his economy has begun to experience very drastic changes, namely when he loses many of his assets and finances.
Gamblers who are addicted can do anything to facilitate their negative desires so that they can continue to run smoothly even though they are willing to risk their assets and savings in gambling that they run with an unstable and unbalanced mind so that they will remain calm and happy even though in fact regret and great losses are waiting in their lives later.

On the moment that you do make yourself having some issues with self control then it's likely you will really be that addicted with gambling and this is something that you should avoid as much as you could. We do know that it could destroy someones life in terms of finances yet this will be mainly the thing that do get affected. It will really be indeed a shortcut to poverty if you can't be able to find yourself having that good control towards your mind and emotion aspect. Gambling should really be that for fun and not making it as an income because this is where you do usually be targeting on the moment that you do gamble.

Realization do always come at the end when the time comes that you do really made up some bad decisions towards your gambling habit. Always be remindful on the time you do get involved on something that pertains about betting or doing gambling.
Be contented on what you do have and never ever make gambling as your main source of income or the solution of your current poverty condition. Instead on making up a solution, it would really be that making it worst.

Gamblers who finally consider gambling as a source of income are those who previously got some wins that could exceed their income from their jobs. thinking getting wins from the game is easier and produces more than having to work hard to work and be tiring.

We are humans and our psychology pushes us to strange decisions. For example, if we don't like our job, we will look for any hobby that can give us income on the side, just to quit our job. And we will also look for those who are successfully engaged in gambling, to say to ourselves "this guy lives happily and richly, and I can do the same". But in reality, this is a dead end and not a way out of the situation.

I think it is a decision that occurs because of the urge of a stressful situation, such as having financial problems, having a job with a minimum wage that is unable to cover all living expenses or being in debt because of something can also trigger mental and psychological stress on a person, and of course as we know that when someone is influenced by a lot of pressure from various problems they experience, then of course various decisions that are far from rational are very possible for them to do, as you exemplified, namely it is very possible for them to assume that they can get a big win like what other people get, such as streamers in a show until finally the idea actually leads them to a much worse situation. On the other hand, this is the reason why common sense and rational thinking must always be maintained and used every time you find something new.

All this should be so, but I know from my own experience how much he could sometimes try to create illusions if he does not see a way out of the circumstances. Routine, which lasts from year to year, with the complete impossibility of earning more with some new decisions make any person someone who is ready to see opportunities and chances for success where there is none at all. And if someone also has bad habits like alcohol addiction, then this person is doomed like a moth to fly to a flame.

most people would rather be fed confortable illusions that prove their point than to have their opinions challenged. not so hard if you think about it
courage is in short supply nowadays
and it takes courage to admit that your world view is biased

habits will shape our destiny
most should probably stay away from gambling...

They will not realize that they are addicted to gambling, but I think they will realize when they have lost a lot of money or even assets that were previously owned that were sold because they were gambled on.

Agree with you, basically a gambler who is addicted does not realize that his behavior is wrong and certainly the consequences of the addiction he has suffered so far will have a very bad impact on his life when his economy has begun to experience very drastic changes, namely when he loses many of his assets and finances.
Gamblers who are addicted can do anything to facilitate their negative desires so that they can continue to run smoothly even though they are willing to risk their assets and savings in gambling that they run with an unstable and unbalanced mind so that they will remain calm and happy even though in fact regret and great losses are waiting in their lives later.

Unfortunately, the situation with addicted gamblers is getting worse because doctors don't know how to help them. After all, these doctors don't know the theory of games, they haven't experienced addiction to gambling. And that's bad, because it doesn't stop clinics from taking huge amounts of money from gamblers. However, now, inveterate gamblers have started giving interviews where they admit their mistakes and thereby cleanse themselves. They believe that this way they will become sincere and learn to control themselves.
