Topic: Having a regular/steady income is important as a gambler. - page 2. (Read 2697 times)

It's true what you said, the more often and more they gamble, the more often and more they experience defeat, there is nothing that can guarantee that they can get a definite win even if it is by gambling frequently, because a win that is not certain to be obtained is absolutely impossible to obtain by according to your heart's desires, but what is certain is that defeat will always occur or be obtained, so even if you gamble frequently you cannot guarantee that you will be able to win at gambling. It's really unfortunate for people who consider gambling as their main source of income, because that is an incorrect principle, making gambling a permanent income in my opinion is the same as giving money away for free, because there is no guaranteed profit, even though there is a chance of winning Maybe even if you win, it won't cover all the losses that have occurred. and I think that people who gamble as a regular income are people who are no longer of sound mind, because with that they will only experience big losses as they continue to gamble and the losses will continue to accompany them. understanding the fact that gambling is not a good thing if it is done frequently is real, because gambling is only a means of paid entertainment, nothing more than that, but if they think gambling is a source of income then they are very wrong. there is no definite profit that can be obtained consistently.

In my opinion, if they gamble frequently or consider gambling as a source of income, it means that they have lost self-control, thinking that they want to recover losses or chase wins is the same as wasting their money. Even though they try to use a lot of money and a large bet amount, it doesn't guarantee they can win if they don't have absolute luck in gambling, unlike those who have luck, even though they bet with a small bet amount, they can win. the maximum amount of the bet is due to luck. What must be paid attention to is that when they don't have money they shouldn't force themselves to gamble, but rather they have to work to earn money, and gamble when they have more money or money that is apart from all needs, I mean when basic needs are met and still If you have leftover money, it doesn't matter if you use the remaining money for gambling. This is what you have to pay attention to, don't gamble when you don't have income or force yourself to gamble, that's not recommended at all.

The worse thing a gambler can do for himself is viewing gambling as a source of income, because it's inherently a game of chances and luck, nothing about gambling is certain and there's no guarantee of winning. In fact, the odds often works in favor of the casino rather than the gamblers. It's really easy to get caught up in the cycle of loss chasing, as you said, and it can lead to more problems.

Having a regular/steady income is important as a gambler. It is bro because gambling is evolving money and you should have a steady income unless you play gamble with FUN money I mean money that is provided by gambling casino sites you don't need real money and can play as much as you can.

However when you have regular income you still need a budget to play and how much money that you can afford to lose

Nothing more can bring anything good. A gamble who gamble more, the more likely he is to lose. Gambling is always uncertain. A gambler may be in danger whenever he envisions gambling as a regular income opportunity. There is no regular income opportunity in gambling. But without knowing this fact, many consider gambling as another source of income. They even lost their control at one point. For regular income they even try to use more money to recover losses which results in higher losses and those gamblers suffer more. It is better to have the intention of enjoying gambling rather than earning. Greed will work in it when gambling consider as a income source. Rather, after losing money in gambling, it is better not to try to recover the lost money.

Of course, a gambler must have a steady income because gamblers need fixed capital to gamble.
And this is a problem for gamblers who have a fixed income, because there are also those who consider gambling just for fun for just a few dollars, just entertainment when they feel tired while looking for income and many of them like to play responsibly. Because they value their hard-earned money and will think many times about spending large amounts of money.
And there are also those who do the opposite without caring if they spend the money they earn on gambling because they think they will get it back later. And these are the irresponsible gamblers who look for money just to gamble without thinking twice about their needs, if the money is only spent on gambling, they forget that they don't have anything.

Anyone without income shouldn't gamble, because such person will end up using gambling as his means of income which is unethical. The person will be vulnerable to addiction, because he thinks that he can make it through gambling, and he will keep on chasing losses, and will go at any length to get money for his gambling activities. This is the worst of all, because how will the person be able to provide for his needs, and also pay for his bets.

However, if a gambler has an income, if he is the type that do have his gambling budget, and stick to it due to self control and discipline on his gambling activities, he will enjoy the fun in gambling. But for those people that don't keep their gamble budget, might end up spending all their money in gambling in one day, because they are losing, but instead of quitting the game, they will feel that they can win back all their losses, and since the still have some funds in their possessions, they will use that money to continue chasing their losses, and they will finally lose of of it. No job, don't gamble.

Even when someone has a regular paying job, making gambling a habit every day is not that good because you might spend more than you earn from your regular job in gambling, and if it happens that you don't win more often from gambling, what do you think will happen to your regular salary? It might not even be able to keep you going.
 
You also don't have to envy those who gamble and don't have any regular job that gives them stable pay, and they end up only hoping on gambling for survival. What if the days when they don't win anything from the casino, how will they survive, or will they go and beg for what to eat or someone who will help them foot their daily bills?

Having a source of income as a gambler, to me, really matters a lot, and it helps you the gambler to keep going without feeling much pain when you lose, unlike a gambler that doesn't know where the next money will be coming from, but on the other hand you're right because even though you have a source of income and don't gamble responsibly, then you're likely going to get screwed and may suffer economically because you might end up gambling out your entire salary.

Well, everyone should have a stable income but it differs with our passion as there are jobs that don't really give that security for having stability. But if the person is enjoying that job and it's like a commission-basis work, that's fine. Whether that person is a gambler and as long as it's clean money, that's what matters. So, if that working person gambles and he's got that money that he'd worked out, what matters there is that it is his money and he worked for it. That's what matters there and if that guy goes to the point of borrowing money and he doesn't have a stable income, he should at least give himself an idea that people who take loan have stable income or cash flow that they're able to pay for it.

Not going to that point but paying the possible loan through the potential winning. That's not going to be granted by the loaner if that's the idea but if he's got a stable income. The loaner will no doubt going to allow that to be granted and will set a term on how much the interest will be. Most of the borrower gamblers have those type of mind for which they think that it's normal but little did they know, they should be more aware the after-effects of it when they're not able to pay those loans and they don't have a stable income. They shouldn't gamble for being in that situation.

Keeping aside some amount for gambling purpose, contributes to saving a gambler from spending recklessly. It's rare to find an income earner who because of his earnings lived a better life while addicted. The best thing for every gambler is playing responsibly, regardless of their status economically. Neglecting the need of staying responsible as a gambler can only cause more harm to the financial economy of the person. Most often, it ends up making the player broke, even as an income earner. Some get tired of their job, due to anxiety from gambling. We all have a long way to go as gamblers, but the good attitude, will help us a lot.

I think that a person, in principle, should have a stable income.
But the point here is different, if a person is into gambling and has problems with it (he bets money that he has no right to use, borrows money for gambling or takes out a loan, etc.), then most likely it doesn’t matter how much he earns, since he will still have problems sooner or later, regardless of salary and income

There's a significant distinction between seeing gambling as a form of entertainment and as a means of making money. When someone sees it as entertainment, they are more likely to be able to stop when they've had their fill and walk away when they've lost what they can afford. However, when someone perceives gambling as a way to gain money, it can be difficult to quit, even if they are losing money and it is negatively impacting their lives.

One of the most important things is not to get addicted to gambling. It is something that can destroy your life. If someone has a steady and steady income but is addicted to gambling, of course he will use all that money to gamble. In the end he will lose everything. I think anyone who gambles needs to have a wise attitude in controlling their budget. They have to impose limits and if the budget runs out then you can no longer gamble until the following month. That's what I do and I honestly enjoy it.

Yes buddy I understand what you mean here and regarding my statement  above I was just saying in simple terms which is more likely to lead to the difference between someone who has a job and some people who are unemployed when both are involved in gambling activities, but I understand what exactly you mean that it is not about the situation of whether they are working or not but rather something that is in a person such as greed and emotions. which is simply that even if you have a good income or even you are one of the rich people you can still end up poor or bankrupt when you cannot treat gambling activities properly in the sense that as you said, which is simply that even if you have a pretty good income or even if you are one of the rich people you can still end up in poverty or bankruptcy when you can't treat gambling activities properly in the sense that as you said that when they have good finances along with having the wrong approach  to gambling then obviously the chances are that their income from work will only be allocated to their gambling activities in the sense that they have the possibility of experiencing much greater losses.

So the point is not whether you are employed or not but whether or not you are responsible or have the recommended approach in your gambling activities, I agree and understand with this statement. On the other hand about what I said above about unemployed people getting involved in loans, I'm just saying that it's "likely" that eventually they will take out loans to fulfill or finance their gambling activities, and I'm not saying that it's "certain" to happen, because there may still be people who are able to control themselves, and I'm referring to those who are irresponsible or who are unable to control their gambling activities such as addicts.  It's clear that in some cases addicted people use "borrowing" or even "stealing" as an alternative to finance their gambling activities, and I understand that with the situation of not having a job it will make it difficult for them to take out loans at some services and it makes it difficult for them to take out loans because there is no guarantee of anything that can be trusted by the service, I understand this but I think this is going too far and usually they just try to borrow from people around them by saying something that can make others trust enough, but isn't this also a loan that can make the situation worse by getting into debt? because they basically don't have the income to be able to pay it back.

So what this means is that the situation of the unemployed can be more chronic than that of the employed when it comes to the pressure they feel about not being able to make ends meet, I think you should understand  what I mean in this context, for the issue of loans I am not saying that loans are only for unemployed people, because after all this is an alternative that can help someone in an emergency situation and not just in terms of gambling, but gamblers who have the wrong approach to gambling always try to take advantage of the  situation and use loans as an intermediary to finance their bad habits. Okay let's put aside the context of "working or not" because the point is  whether you can treat gambling with the recommended approach or not, because no matter how rich you are if you have the wrong approach then you can end up being a beggar.

I've already captured most of your points in my post and I must say that you have a point in some sense of this, but when it comes the sense of the context in which I replied to, I strongly believe that greed is still the highest factor to consider here, and not about being employed or not. As I said, being employed will only make more money available to you to gamble with, which invariably means you can also waste more money in the process. So, being employed doesn't make you automatically disciplined or a better planner when it comes to gambling. Your point can only prove well in the area of extra backup cash, which if not carefully utilized, will only amount to more financial ruins. Also, gambling is for everybody, the only distinction is that we should be responsible in it. Those who have more may gamble more and those who have less may gamble less. All that matters is for us to consider our finances and gamble cautiously and proportionately without intimidation or fear. We may gamble with money that will not pain us, and even an employed person may still be able to part ways with a few bucks for gambling. But such should not just go beyond that.

Wait a minute, so you believe that because someone is not employed, such could be tempted to take a loan to gamble? Do you think that is as easy as that? What collateral would such use, and even if he was lucky to get the loan through some cheap loaners with a higher interest rate, would such be able to pay back in most cases? Such does not have a job, so with time, the process would hook and there would not be any means for him to borrow money again. It is discouraging to take a loan by this set of people. And do you think the employed gambler is exonerated from this as well? I don't agree with that, they can also take loans if they exhaust the money they have. We should just pray we are not addicted to gambling, a lot are betting in advance of their salaries and the fact that they are employed often motivates them since they have the means to easily pay it back.

For this, I do not see the "thin line" you were trying to draw regarding the loan between the employed and jobless gamblers. All I see is individuality and how engrossed/addicted people (employed/unemployed) are to gambling. If either of them can't be disciplined enough to control themselves, the story will always be bad due to emotion that entails greed, fear, anxiety, curiosity, depression and even worse.

The point is that gambling is more recommended for those who do have a job that produces in the real world, none other than because by having an income, the defeat of gambling will not make you experience too much trouble, because by having an income, at least you still have a number of budgets from your monthly salary to make ends meet. In the sense that gamblers who do not have a job or are unemployed are not really recommended to gamble because they do not have the income to finance their gambling activities and the fear is that it is very possible for them to take out a lot of loans or even commit crimes just to gamble.

But on the other hand yes I understand what you mean that having a job is not always a favorable situation, because however gambling can make you lose more money when you treat gambling in the wrong way or approach, simply put whoever you are rich or poor you still have the possibility to end up poor when treating gambling in the wrong way, it will be very likely to happen when you are not able to control yourself. The point is that whoever you are, whether you are rich, middle class, or even poor, in the end, applying all limits and self-control must always be applied to your gambling activities.

Human DNA contains this defect. Having more makes us crave more. A constant unhappiness, not simply avarice. The catch: being "gainfully employed" doesn't guarantee financial savvy

Gambling isn't affected by wealth. It's discipline; or lack thereof. The thrill, the pursuit, drives gambling, not the compensation. Some are rich yet drown in vices, while others, counting pennies, know moderation. The true game? It's wagered inside, not on tables or slots. Until the battle is won, the cycle continues

The way I see it is a little bit different here, fine, gambling can be better for those who are gainfully employed, after all, they will have more money to gamble and perhaps the instances of their losses will not affect them so much compared to those who are just struggling financially and still gambling to lose. But one thing I will not so much agree with is the fact that being gainfully employed will stop you from gambling more or wagering higher. What I see here is greed, nothing else, and it is until you curb or control it, you will never be healed of it, not even if you have more money, it will only push you to risk more. To think it my way, look around you, you would discover that many people are gainfully employed but still gamble more, while some are not so financially buoyant, yet they limit their gambling activity because they are contented and are wise with it. This shows that anything about gambling is not rigid for all persons, it's about individuals in this context.

      -    When you have a regular job and you like to gamble, for sure this will be your gasoline for it so that you can gamble continuously at the casino. So it's quite difficult when a gambler just gambles because it's just luck because he doesn't have a job.

But sometimes I admire other gamblers who, even if they don't have a regular job, manage to raise money for gambling, but they can't find a way to find a job because they don't do it that way.


Having self-control will help a gambler a lot so that he can collect profit in the casino when he wins handsomely in the end.

It appears you've learned quite a lesson from your personal experience about self control and the potential consequences of not having it when it comes to gambling. You're right that it's not just about losing money, there are also other hazzard irresponsible gambling can cause a gambler such as emotional trauma, this often happens when a gambler has lost everything maybe due to chasing losses and then ended  up taking loans to continue gambling in order to recover the funds he lost, this can easily result to emotional trauma, as well as affecting your mental health and leading someone to frustration, which can often make some gamblers often attempt to take their own life.
