Gamble for fun then you would really be just that fine. On the moment or time that you are really that having some issues then try to get rid of it while its still early.

Yes, in this case it is easy for things to get out of control for the simple reason that when you play you always think that you are doing Everything right, and in view of that when you realize it is that you have already spent an impressive amount of money and that is not the idea, that is why I give importance to the fact that before everything, we as responsible people, it is convenient to do it , so in this sense , you reach a moment when you enjoy the game and that is what is really the true level of Enjoyment with the option to win.


Indeed, setting up your target limit either for winning amount or losing amount as long as you already achieved such goals of entertaining yourself, else you are targeting or expecting to make decent amount as a financial gain which will be different in terms of perspectives, most gamblers forget about this when they are already inside instead of limiting their finances they keep pushing forward and try which cause them losing a lot and surely frustrates them and lead them to keep adding more.

Actually there is nothing wrong with gambling, it is just a normal activity that has a risky side, meaning that if for example someone treats gambling correctly and properly then they should not experience any setbacks in their lives as a result of gambling, after all there is no coercion from the casino to gamblers to continue gambling or treat gambling blindly, but on the other hand we can see that most of the gamblers always experience a setback especially in terms of finances in their lives due to this gambling activity, so from here we can conclude that most likely the gamblers who experience a setback are those who treat gambling in the wrong way, most of all it is triggered by a misunderstanding of the winnings provided by the casino.

The problem with gambling and poverty is the people who think they will win tend to be the people with the lowest intelligence and likely the lowest earners. Basically, the folks that shouldn’t be gambling their money away. Casinos should do a better job of letting people know you’re spending money for entertainment and will most likely not win.

these end up being the favorites for the cassino
what they want at the end of the day?
people with deep pockets and small brains
right before people with small brains and not so deep pockets

do you think they end up being a net good or net evil for humanity?

It's the gamblers' choice what they want to be. There are gamblers who think that maybe by gambling they will hit a jackpot for a small amount and become rich, they think about it,
we can't get that out of their minds.

Now, there are others who even though their lives are good, they have a good salary from the job they have, then they try to gamble and win a big amount, they suddenly think that it's easy to win at the casino and this will be the beginning of the destruction of their lives towards poverty.

PIf you have a target to win, then it will only make you have pressure and may be depressed if the result is a loss. So, if your goal or target in gambling is just fun, then you will not prioritize about the results. But, if the result is a win, then of course it will make you will get more joy because it may be like a jackpot, which is received suddenly because it does not have a target to get it in the first place. But of course, it might also be good to make you avoid bankruptcy, because people who do not have good consideration and have no responsibility, they will continue to bet until there is no more money left which makes it worse.

This is only true if your target profit is too good to be true or out of reach in reality but with normal target profit then this is fine because it will set as brake so that you will stop gambling whenever you reach the goal. Gamblers always become greedy whenever they are winning that’s why having a target profit is always a must before you gamble.

Target profit serves as motivation to become positive on your game instead of gambling blindly and exposed to risky bets if your game went sour just because you don’t have objective.

Just make the target profit on the range that you can achieve such as x1.5 and so on to make it not a source of pressure on your game.

This is brilliant and I hope people can think that way.

But permit me to exonerate at least the well-established casinos/sportsbooks like Stake, they are trying their best to educate people, but you know what? People do not want to be educated, they do not just care. That is why they will just go straight to the casino, open the account and will not even bother to read the Ts&Cs not to mention many other extras like the Disclaimers, Gambling responsibility, Addiction possibility, Self-exclusion, Gambling limits, Self-assessment, Recognise the sign etc. I was reading those from Stake 2 nights ago and was impressed that they have done their part, it's left for gamblers to listen.

You are right about this, there's no way the government can fully regulate gambling, it's more of a personal problem that the affected individuals must deal with by themselves. Many gamblers try to make gambling a source of income and that's where the problem of dependency start's from. Imagine what you planned to make a source of income is now constantly taking from you. In the long run no one actually gains more than the house or bookmakers, everything is calculated and the odds are always in their favour, you can only get lucky.
Government control is limited; they can only ask the casino to set some certain rules that they will want the gamblers to follow, but they can't go from house to house controlling the gamblers on how to gamble; regulation itself doesn't even stop underage people from gambling completely, talk more or other things. 
 
Taking gambling as a source of income and later ending up being the source of income for the gambling company is just like a regular thing that happens between gambling companies and their customers who don't want to learn the rules of gambling and treat gambling the way it ought to be treated.

Since the odds are always against the gamblers it's quite impossible to achieve a huge winning through gamble. But only luck can make it happen for gamblers. Actually you are right because I do not see any reason why a responsible gambler that works and earn good amount of money will consider gamble to be a means whereby he or she can earn a living.

not sure how easy it is to overcome poverty, the thing is that people who are intelligent and work hard are able to do it
so many stories of rags to riches, why it couldn't be you?
It's because that many are discouraged of their own situation. They result getting some idea from gambling and they find themselves optimistic with that method which shouldn't be.

chasing losses and not managing risk are probably some of the biggest villains for gamblers.
Those things make someone gambling addict. I think many starts from being a good gambler and able to manage risk but then when losses comes, chasing starts, intelligence becomes lower and bad decisions occur.

Thinking like that, it's obvious that many gamblers will go bankrupt.
Is gambling to be successful? Of course not, but I recognize gambling for fun and wouldn't spend my entire savings just to gamble it's a bit stupid if anyone does.

Even if you chase losses most gamblers still lose, so discipline is most important.
Set a bankrol for gambling so you know your limits.

About the government having to control the gamblers it can't, they will take care of taxes for the country's income, sometimes the government doesn't care about the fate of the people who are addicted to gambling, it is an individual problem that must be resolved by themselves while the government only appeals.

You are right about this, there's no way the government can fully regulate gambling, it's more of a personal problem that the affected individuals must deal with by themselves.

Gambling can be only referred as a short cut to poverty when the gambler becomes addicted to it. Gambling addiction is very deadly and would render whoever that's addicted to it poor and financial lack which is why gamblers are always advised to gamble responsibly and to take control of their gambling engagements. So if you know you gamble responsibly, I don't think you should have any fear of becoming poor because of your gambling activities.

The moment anyone becomes addicted they see it as a means of getting out of poverty and some might get lucky but out of 10 is only 2 get that kind of luck and now that the economy of the country is not even suitable and that is why you see that the number of people gambling have increased recently because majority are looking for a way out of poverty and if you are looking for a way out I don't think that gambling should be the way out of perverty it does not work thay way, you gamble for the fun of it and the money you get from it so their is no way you can over do things when it comes to gambling because the amount you might spend might be more than what you will get so, we that love gambling are only doing it for fun, but when you lose that money to be won they you will know the true color of gambling.
Many people have chosen gambling to overcome poverty. I think it is not their problem because if a poor person cannot find a job, he will try any way to get employment and find a way to overcome his poverty. But when a gambler becomes an addicted gambler, it will certainly be very easy to come to poverty. There is a risk in gambling, if you place a bet, there is a possibility of winning as well as losing, but if someone gambles only with the hope of winning, then his loss is certain. There are many gamblers who, even after losing, always try to recover their money and at some point they lose all their assets. If a gambler can accept his loss and manage gambling, he can also take a break there if necessary, then he can definitely get something good from gambling. But for those who try to get more from gambling only out of excessive greed, gambling will only bring poverty closer.

not sure how easy it is to overcome poverty, the thing is that people who are intelligent and work hard are able to do it

If you are really that planning on making yourself getting out with poverty then never ever make yourself getting that option on trying out to deal with gambling or including into your choices.
We do know that this isnt something a smart choice on trying to improve yourself in terms of financial but rather this thing will really be that making it worst instead.
Its true that if other people do able to get out with poverty, why cant we? It all matters in someones hard work and dedication on how they would really be doing things.
There are people who are patient enough and there are those people who do easily gives up on the moment or time that they do able to encounter some hardship or challenges.

I noticed one thing the reason why folks keep saying gambling is a shortcut to poverty, is because of the mindset folks have toward gambling thinking or taken gambling as a means to get rich quick or to become a millionaire over night ( though is possible but not has easy as you think) because losses are always involved that most folks do get rekt before getting to point of hitting the jackpot. .

The right way to approach gambling is by taken it as a means of entertainment to while away time or something you do for fun, not something you do just to get rich quick ,so that you won't endup rekt.
There are many gamblers who don't want to change their position with difficulty but always have the idea that they will own a lot of money without working hard by gambling. Basically those who come to gambling with this kind of thinking can never do anything good by gambling. It is definitely a wrong decision for those gamblers who gamble by borrowing money from others or gamble even if they don't have enough money to support their families. Gambling should be taken in such a way that we do not become dependent on it. If we manage our family well and we have the remaining money every month and the money lost from our total money will not have any bad effect on our life and I think we should gamble with that amount of money as planned. But those who think that gambling will make them rich overnight are completely mistaken and must come out of this misconception.

Yeah, trying so hard is going to be hard and painful.

There's really a need for every gambler to understand and realize that gambling isn't mostly for those that are seeking refuge in it and want to make money as fast as they can.

Some might be fortunate in finding good results but not everyone will have the same story.

And most of the time those who are trying to find refuge are the one that mostly lose their money, as they are keep on pushing and with  expereinced loses they will become aggressive and be out of control, ending up losing all their deposits and unable to cope on it and will add or tap more money.

This kind of behaviors are very dangerous as it will push you to engage to much and lose everything if you become addicted.
Yeah, countless times I've seen gamblers that have ended their way like that. They lost most of their money instead of making more. I don't know the thing in there but that's the common issue that we see for most people that would like to get into gambling as their gateway to riches.

We will hear it a million times from everyone here that gambling is for entertainment.

But when someone treats gambling as a source of income, they're bound into losing more money and it's not a shortcut to riches.

We cannot remove that from their heads and there will always be the gamblers that will keep on doing things as they wish to do like continuing in doing so for the hope of having a better life through it.

They have different views right and says that all the time Grin I think it's the nature of the forum for everyone to say the same thing probably not to get roasted over opinion but that doesn't reveal who you are exactly. As for me, gambling is for fun and for money, any other person that thinks otherwise is free to believe what he choose to believe, if there is no money involve in gambling, 90% of gamblers wouldn't do visit gambling platforms again in their life.

However, having mindset of coming to make money from gambling is one of the quickest way someone can enter poverty, if you are poor before and you have this mindset, you will die of frustration and if you have money before and want to gamble this way, I'm sure that you are going to be homeless, the kind of frustration that will you experienced will make you quit gambling completely. Just like a thread I just saw now about a guy calling gambling a scam, it's this kind of gambling frustration that lead them there.
Well, you're on the right boat for telling that it could be for both. That's a play safe in there and for that reason, it's best to have our freedom and choose what might work for us.

But those that will continue to believe that gambling is a shortcut way to get out of poverty, they will have the hardest times.

The right way to approach gambling is by taken it as a means of entertainment to while away time or something you do for fun, not something you do just to get rich quick ,so that you won't endup rekt.
The poverty all starts from where one starts seeing their self that as they are poor, the only way they can get rich is from gambling; they have already caved themselves into that, which will be difficult to escape, and the more they keep on using what they have to gamble instead of chasing a career and a brighter future, the more they deeply get broke and become poorer beyond the level they once's where. It takes only some serious attention to take that belief away from them.
Only lazy people will really be considering on making gamlbing to be that the only way that they could get out with poverty. There's no such thing for this to be true not unless if you would be that extremely luck and able to hit up some jackpot then this could really be that possible but we do know that chance or odds is really that simply close to impossible which it is really that better that you shouldnt really be making this as an inspiration for you to gamble with all your might because of having some hopes that you could be able to hit up the jackpot. Always thing up realistically and never ever make gambling to be the solution
when it comes to money, if you do have plans on getting out of poverty then it would be rather the fastest way on becoming poor or putting up yourself on poverty.

Dont make those mistakes on which other people done into their lives. Yes, we cant be perfect on which there would really be those times that gambling urge is really that high and ending up on having those kind of spending on which it is really that out of our limit but what important the most is that you do able to stop and make out that realizations and deal up with it realistically.

Yeah right, there are gamblers who loves taking that kind of risk hoping that luck will permits them and earn that huge success in gambling, though we can't remove the fact that there are some who managed to have that kind of success but compared to those who did not, that's a huge difference between the two, there are more loser and more people  who engage and did not end well after trying so hard..
Yeah, trying so hard is going to be hard and painful.

This kind of behaviors are very dangerous as it will push you to engage to much and lose everything if you become addicted.

-Snip-

The set of people who see gambling as a source of income are usually disappointed in the end. Only a few percentage of such people end up making meaningful money from gambling. Seeing gambling as a means to make money might lead to borrowing or selling personal belongings to gamble which might lead to further financial problems. If gambling could make people rich, most people who gamble in developing nations would have become wealthy. But what I see around my neighborhood is poverty among hardcore gamblers. Only a few of them become lucky and win big money that will make them financially stable.

That's another problem with those people who treats gambling as a place to earn money, they can extend to the point of borrowing money and with aggressions inside them they are unable to control their emotions and those borrowed money ads up as additional obligation to repay.
